Never Late, Never Away Chapter 533
It seemed like half of Evelyn's plan had succeeded by now. At the very least, Hunter's interest inVivian was piqued. Hunter was the kind who would do anything to get the woman he laid eyes on.Maintaining his gentlemanly demeanor, Hunter politely asked, “What would the two ladies like toeat?” However, his gaze remained fixed on Vivian, who sat opposite him
“I'm fine with anything. What about you, Vivian?" Evelyn queried in faked concern.
“I'll have the same as you.” Hunter's burning gaze on her made the hair on the back of her neckrose, and all she wanted was to leave as soon as she was done with the meal.
While they ate, Hunter and Evelyn chatted away merrily, but Vivian barely spoke. She only muttereda few replies whenever they turned to ask her questions, making it seem as if she was haughty.Vivian's disinterest was apparent to Hunter, but instead of dissuading him, his need to win reared itsugly head. To Hunter, the more challenging the woman was, the better she was.
Just as the long-suffering meal was over and Vivian thought she could leave, Hunter suggestedgoing to a bar. Naturally, Evelyn agreed to it, but Vivian excused herself by telling them she hadthings to attend to. She could not endure a second longer around them.
"How is she? Are you confident in winning her over?” Evelyn smirked at Hunter after Viviandeparted.
"Of course.” Hunter shrugged as a grin crawled onto his face. “I've never met a woman I can't dealwith.”
The smirk on Evelyn's face grew wider when she heard Hunter's response. “I hope you're not lyingabout that.” Vivian, you'll never get the chance to win as long as you're up against me.
While she was driving back, Vivian thought about the events in the afternoon. It seemed likeEvelyn's aim was to introduce her to Hunter.
Although she did not know what Evelyn's motives were, Vivian knew well that it would not beanything good. Thus, she reminded herself to be extra cautious if she ever met up with Hunteragain.
The next few days, Vivian returned to her normal schedule. She sent Larry to school before headingto work at Morrison Group. After her work, she would then pick Larry up and bring him home. Dayswent by leisurely.
To her expectations and not at the same time, after that day, Hunter kept contacting her. Vivian didnot even know where he had gotten her number from. In fact, it seemed like he was trying to courther.
At that moment, her phone rang.
Vivian glanced at the number she had gotten familiar with over the recent days, and frustrationentered her eyes. With a rough sweep, she accepted the call.
"Vivian, are you today?” The moment she picked up the call, she could hear his overly sweet voicethrough the speakers.
“What do you want?” Vivian said in an almost-hiss.
“Can't I call you?” Hunter mumbled disappointedly. “I just want to invite you to a meal.”
“I'm sorry. I'm not,” Vivian rejected immediately. “I'm going to pick my son up from school later.”"You already have a son?” Vivian's words stunned him to his core. This was something Evelyn nevertold him.
“That's right, so stop wasting your time with me.”
“How coincidental. Let me join you in picking him up, then.” Instead of keeping his distance awayfrom her, Hunter was fascinated; he never hooked up with someone who was a single mother.“That's settled, then. I'll pick you up at your place. See you.”
With that said, he ended the call, not giving Vivian any chance to reject him. The only thing shecould do was curse at him under his breath when the call ended.
After a while, the butler informed her that someone was looking for her. Upon taking a step out ofthe house, she spotted Hunter leaning against his blue sports car. Some young women on the streetseemed excited when they walked past him
When he noticed her exiting the house, he yelled, “Vivian, this way!”
At that very moment, Vivian could sense the gazes of the surrounding women. If looks could kill,she would be dead. Meanwhile, the culprit was still smiling and waving at her.
