Kingston nodded but didn\u2019t look at her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian stood and headed for the door. When she reached it, she paused and turned back to glance at Kingston, sitting in his office chair, completely absorbed in his work.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Morning sunlight slipped through the open floor\u2013to\u2013ceiling windows, landing across his long, elegant hands. His sapphire cufflinks caught the light, sparkling brilliantly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian pressed her lips together and softly said, \u201cMr. Howard\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Kingston looked up at her. Warmth flickered in his gaze, but there was something in it that Vivian couldn\u2019t read.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She couldn\u2019t help but smile as she asked, \u201cDid the system really play for you last night after you fell asleep?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
His warm gaze darkened at once. Vivian knew exactly what that meant, but she smiled to herself and walked away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Why should he have all the fun laughing at her? She could poke fun at his poor gaming too. Better to get in a joke before he had the chance to tease her later.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian walked out of the Howard Group office tower in a good mood.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As she made her way to her car, Logan stepped out of his vehicle and blocked her path. \u201cVivi, is it done? Let me see the contract.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Without asking, he grabbed her bag and began rifling through it for the contract.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian\u2019s smile vanished in an instant. She had momentarily forgotten about this particular nuisance.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When Logan couldn\u2019t find the contract, his frown deepened, and he glared at her. \u201cVivian, what\u2019s going on?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
With a composed, cold look, Vivian reclaimed her bag. \u201cPerhaps Mr. Howard felt your performance last night was so poor that he had to seriously rethink cooperating with\u00a0<\/p>\n
Whitfield Group.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Anger flared in Logan\u2019s eyes as his expression soured. \u201d So, you didn\u2019t land the contract either? Then why are you acting so high and mighty in front of me?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian stared at his fuming, frustrated face with total indifference.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Logan\u2019s chest heaved as he took a deep breath. \u201cForgive me, Vivian. I expected too much from this deal and couldn\u2019t cope with even a small setback. Zane\u2019s already made the news public. I was just trying to protect Whitfield Group\u2019s reputation.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian gave a sarcastic smile. \u201cThings aren\u2019t even finalized yet, and you already have your so- called good friend broadcasting it everywhere? Logan, you\u2019ve clearly been spoiled too much by them over the years.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Logan tried to explain himself. \u201cIt\u2019s just how Zane is\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian cut him off. \u201cThe higher you\u2019re held up, the harder you\u2019ll fall. Hope you can handle it when that time comes.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Logan closed his eyes. \u201cDon\u2019t be upset. I\u2019ll keep my distance from him and stop dealing with him entirely.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDoesn\u2019t matter,\u201d Vivian said as she opened the car door and slid inside.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She started the car and drove off. Logan didn\u2019t follow up immediately, but after a while, she noticed his car tailing her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian rolled her eyes and sped up toward her townhouse. As soon as she got inside, she locked the front door, leaving Logan outside.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Logan banged on the door, fuming. \u201cVivian, the wedding\u2019s just a few days away! There are still so many details we need to sort out. Can we sit down and talk?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian stood behind the door and calmly said, \u201cI\u2019ll coordinate the wedding details with the event planner. You just need to show up on time.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Logan\u2019s voice cracked slightly. \u201cVivian, are you really going to keep giving me the silent treatment?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian didn\u2019t respond. She simply went inside.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Hearing her footsteps fade, Logan clenched his jaw. Maybe Zane\u2019s idea could actually work. He had been too lenient with her, which had only encouraged her fiery temper.<\/p>\n
