Chapter 91\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian was speechless. She was about to press her floor when she noticed the light was already\u00a0<\/p>\n
She paused. \u201cMr. Howard, are you staying on the 32nd floor too?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Kingston didn\u2019t answer.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat a coincidence.\u201d Her voice came out a little awkward.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If he wasn\u2019t going to respond, she didn\u2019t have the energy to keep trying.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She honestly didn\u2019t understand people who could pull the silent treatment. How did they manage not to say a single word?\u00a0<\/p>\n
It would take a bit for the elevator to reach the 32nd floor. In the cramped space, it was only the two of them. The silence was so heavy that Vivian felt like she could hear her own\u00a0<\/p>\n
breathing.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They couldn\u2019t keep this standoff going, whether it was between Kingston and Camille, or between Hartwell Group and the Howard Group.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Howard\u2026\u201d Vivian said softly, breaking the silence.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Kingston turned his gaze to her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian smiled. He hadn\u2019t ignored her completely. At least he was looking at her now.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cActually, when Camille called earlier, she didn\u2019t say anything. If you want to know how she\u2019s doing, after I go back to Durmont, I can-\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Before she could finish, Kingston cut her off. \u201cWho said I wanted to know about her?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
So, he was still acting tough. If he really didn\u2019t want to know, he should\u2019ve stayed silent like he had earlier.\u00a0<\/p>\n
His reaction was exactly what Vivian expected.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She went on,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCamille has always been strong. Grandpa chose her as the heiress over my dad, so she\u2019s been under more pressure than most women. That toughness is just her armor.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Kingston watched her with a flat expression, giving nothing away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian kept smiling at him and decided to offer a small piece of advice for their situation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCamille isn\u2019t looking for someone who goes head\u2013to\u2013head with her. She needs someone\u00a0<\/p>\n
Chapter 97\u00a0<\/p>\n
2\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n
more considerate, someone who can make her feel cared for. If a man truly loves a woman, he shouldn\u2019t keep waiting for her to back down and turn everything into a standoff.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Kingston was smart. After hearing that, he should\u2019ve at least considered changing his approach.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But he didn\u2019t react the way she expected. He just looked at her, his eyes dark and unreadable.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou should save that speech for the men who want to pursue Camille.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian was speechless.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He was so stubborn.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAren\u2019t you one of them?\u201d she asked, lifting her eyes to meet his deep gaze.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Kingston looked at her. \u201cNo.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian\u2019s brows lifted slightly as she studied his expression.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Right then, the elevator doors opened.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Kingston looked past her and walked out, leaving nothing for her to read.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian followed him out. Looking at his back, she sighed and said, \u201cNone of you are as brave as\u00a0<\/p>\n
me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The man ahead stopped abruptly and turned around.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian paused, then met his eyes anyway, bold as ever.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAm I wrong?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Kingston held her gaze. A faint, cold smile curved at his lips. His eyes were calm, and his voice was low and even. \u201cSometimes, I honestly can\u2019t tell if you\u2019re smart or stupid.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vivian was left speechless.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He was taking digs at her again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
