Seeing as Vivian remained silent, Mark spoke again, "So what do you think? Money is the most important thing to a woman."
Vivian was disgusted by the fact that Mark wanted to defeat Finnick. He is like a poisonous snake. She intentionally asked, "How do you plan to take revenge on Finnick?"
"There are many ways to do so. We do not need to rush to think of a solution." He figured Vivian was willing to cooperate with him by asking the question. "So, I'm assuming that you are willing to cooperate with me?"
Work with you?What kind of person did he think I am?
Vivian suddenly felt like guffawing loudly.
"I would never work with you," she retorted coldly. "Let me give you a piece of advice-stop trying to exact revenge on Finnick. You guys are family."
"A family?" he scoffed. "Our family is not a tight-knit one. All of us have our own motives and plans. If you are willing to work for me, I promise you that I will let you and your mother live a lavish life."
"I don't need your help. I will not betray my husband nor my love for him just for money. You should extinguish any ideas you have," she asserted.
Mark's face instantly turned icy.
I can't believe Vivian is such a piece of work.
He added, "Stop being so stubborn. Finnick is a piece of trash. He will never trump my abilities.
What do you think will happen to you and your
mother then?"
Vivian knew he was lying about Finnick. He wouldn't be bragging if he knew how muscular and fit Finnick was.
Vivian taunted, "You shouldn't be so arrogant."
"Looks like you are not going to work for me then. Are you really ready to give up such a promising reward?" he asked. Did she think that I'm offering too little of a reward?
Vivian lost her last shred of patience.
"Mark, I'm done talking to you," she informed him. She then stood up and said, "I'm going to take a rest now. Goodbye."
As soon as she finished her statement, she left the room.
Mark gazed at her retreating figure with an indifferent look on his face. He laughed coldly and commented, "I can't believe how troublesome she is. She is persistent and very different from Evelyn..."
