"I have to go back to the office to work. Miss Lopez, please send Mr. Johnson back," Vivian said, gritting her teeth.
Vivian didn't want to aggravate the situation. It wasn't a quick game. She would just come up with something else if this plan failed.
She picked up her bag and prepared to leave. She also glared at the nightclub girl who was still standing next to them.
The nightclub girl had thought that they could continue. After all, Vivian's offer was astonishing. She really wanted to make this deal happen, but she didn't expect Vivian to back down.
She was snubbed and even received deathly glares. In a bad mood, she cursed, "Psychos! Wasting so much of my time! Shit!"
Estella smiled complacently as she watched the retreating figure of the nightclub girl, who was leaving in disappointment. "You'd better go back to the company to deal with work, or I'm afraid you won't be able to go home until midnight," she said to Vivian before leaving.
Estella laughed out loud, not taking Vivian seriously. Vivian rolled her eyes in frustration and anger. She didn't calm down until she drank two more glasses of wine.
But all she could do now was watch Estella take Sean away.
It was already late at night. Estella assisted Sean in getting into the passenger seat of her car.
Sean had been very quiet despite being drunk. He leaned back in his seat and dozed off. He didn't even know that Estella had cursed him harshly beside him. "I had overestimated you, Sean. Didn't your parents warn you not to dine with strangers? You probably didn't even know that Vivian set you up." Estella cursed again.
When she turned her head and saw Sean sleeping peacefully on her side, her heart softened and her anger inexplicably disappeared.
Estella took Sean back to her home. She helped Sean settle on the sofa and said, "Stay here. I'll get some water for you."
As soon as Estella finished her words and was about to stand up, Sean pounced on her. Estella lost her balance and fell directly on the sofa with Sean.
His body was hot, and his breath brushed against Estella's neck. Her face flushed instantly. "What, what do you want to do?" she asked nervously.
What else could a man and a woman hugging each other do when they were alone? But Estella was not that wild. She wanted to engage in intimate activities only if they were truly together.
Sean called Estella's name as if he were dreaming. "Estella..." he said, rubbing his cheek against Estella's chin. "Estella... I like you so much..."
