"Wait." Mark rushed forward to stop her, his whole head dampened with sweat.
Refusing to budge an inch, Vivian said calmly, “Did you finally remember what you did to me? Or doI have to call the police to assist you with the process?”
“I'll confess everything to Finnick, I swear,” he forced out through gritted teeth. “But how can I trustthat you won't blackmail me even after I've done what you asked me to?”
"Are you trying to negotiate with me?” She raised an eyebrow.
Mark held the file up in his hand. “I know that this isn't the only copy you have. I want you toguarantee that you will destroy all traces of these documents after I tell Finnick the truth.”
“No promises.”
“You're clearly trying to take advantage of me!” He flung the file onto the floor.
“I'm not, but you have no right to be negotiating anything with me,” Vivian pointed out, narrowingher eyes. “If you don't agree to my terms, I will submit these documents as evidence. If you doagree, then only will I consider letting you off the hook.”
“I'm warning you, Vivian,” Mark growled out, a vein popping in the corner of his forehead. “I'vekidnapped you once, and I can do it again. If I stop you from leaving the Norton Corporationbuilding, then you won't be able to expose me!”
“Do you think that I'm an idiot?” Scoffing, Vivian took a look at her watch. “If I do not exit thisbuilding within an hour from now on, all these documents will be published online. I'm only givingyou one chance; take it or leave it.”
Mark's hands clenched into fists by his sides.
Didn't this woman use to be so dumb that Evelyn could easily play her like a fiddle? How and wheredid she learn to have backup plans like that?
Completely disregarding the glare that was burning into her, Vivian turned to level Mark with abored expression. “I already told you: I'm now Vivian Morrison. I'm not the naive, helpless VivianWilliam from before. You have no choice but to say “yes"”
Being threatened by a young woman like this was the most humiliating thing Mark had had tosuffer in all of his life. But he couldn't not agree. It was just like Vivian said: he had no choice.
“Fine. I'll go and confess to Finnick tomorrow. I hope you'll carefully consider not publicizing thisinformation, Ms. Morrison. Remember, even a harmless puppy will bite when it's backed into acorner,” Mark spat out.
The few sentences seemed to drain all the energy out of the man. He secretly swore that one day,he would get back at her.
A puppy? Vivian wanted to laugh out loud. She didn't think of Mark as a puppy at all. But she didn'tcare even if he was a fierce tiger. She wasn't scared. If anything, she would pluck out his fangs andclaws one by one to ensure that he would never be able to hurt anyone else ever again.
"Please make sure to properly tell Finnick everything without leaving anything out,” Vivian reiteratedas she moved out of Mark's way, heading for the exit.
She stopped just before the door, glancing over her shoulder. “Remember, this is only the start. I willbe seeking revenge for everything you did to me and my child.”
“Damn it!" Mark exploded as soon as she left the office, kicking over the desk in front of him. Thatproved insufficient to cool his frustration as he swept away everything in sight, sending them tocrash onto the floor.
“What's wrong, Mr. Norton?” The secretary ran in, having heard the commotion from inside theoffice. She nearly jumped out of her skin at the chaotic sight that greeted her.
“Get out!” roared Mark. “Leave me alone!"
"Yes, of course...”
The frightened secretary had never seen Mark in such a fit of rage before and immediately scurriedout of the room. Even after she had fled a good distance away, she could still hear the loud soundsof objects being smashed onto the ground.
