She was already running very late. Now, with Chow teasing her like this, her hopes to arrive at school This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
on time was completely shattered.
However, after going through a roller-coaster of emotions just now, she didn't care if she was late
anymore.
Vivian held her backpack tightly. Subconsciously, she was using the small backpack as a shield to
protect herself.
Chow's expression was uncertain as his sharp gaze stared straight ahead.
Even though she was not the centre of his attention anymore, Vivian still felt the strong aggression
radiating from his body.
It made her feel suffocated in the small car.
The road ahead seemed too long. Vivian never knew that a ten-minute journey to school could be so
uncomfortable.
She felt relieved when she finally saw the school gates ahead. She held her backpack tightly again and
got ready to alight from the car.
However, she didn't expect Chow to drive her directly into the school grounds.
"Brother Chow, you can drop me off here." Although classes had already started, Vivian still dared not
to be too high-profile.
She had been attending this school even before living with the Howard family. However, she had no
idea where the students heard of the rumour that her mother was a mistress. Ever since then when she
was in junior high, Vivian had been despised by everyone.
That was why she still dared not flaunt in front of the others even though she had been with the Howard
family for two years because of Uncle Dylan's will. Usually, when the driver sent her to school, she
always asked him to drop her off two streets away.
Even so, there were still rumours going around that her mother was nothing but a gold-digger.
Now that Chow had sent her straight into campus, she really couldn't imagine how much worse the
rumours would get.
There was only one month left before the college entrance examinations. She didn't want the other
students to use the remaining time to spread more rumours about her.
However, she had no control over Chow's behaviour. He just turned a deaf ear to her words, driving the
car directly to the office building before unlocking the doors for her.
Although Vivian was surprised that Chow would park his car under the office building, she was still
grateful.
She wouldn't need to be afraid that her classmates would see her from their windows if he dropped her
off here.
Vivian secretly heaved a sigh of relief, unfastened her seat belt, and quickly opened the door to get out.
Suddenly, she froze in her actions.
She never thought that she would run into the mathematics representative who was just leaving the
office building with everyone's homework.
Vivian stole a glance behind her in reflex. The girl was also stunned, but when she saw the luxury car
behind her, a scornful sneer appeared on her lips.
Vivian suddenly felt that there was nowhere to hide from the rep's contemptuous eyes. She felt her
cheeks starting to burn.
She knew what the other person was thinking. If she had a normal relationship with Chow, she could
probably still ignore her disdain and walk ahead with her head held high.
However, she had done shameful things with Chow. There was no escaping the harsh reality that she
was struggling to break away from. She was suffocating, yet she had no energy left in her to break
free.
Maybe, all she had right now was just because of Chow's lust for her body.
She didn't know how to refuse his advances.
Perhaps she'd been rooted in her spot for far too long — Chow opened the driver's door and got out of
the car as well.
As soon as the girl saw Chow, her expression changed instantly. Her contempt towards Vivian
completely disappeared, substituted with a look of pure admiration as she stared at him.
