After the weekend, Vivian wanted to take time off from work for a while. The thought of running into Hanley at work made her reluctant. But she was a good employee who did her duty, so she would not miss work at will.
On her way to work, Vivian prayed again and again that she would not meet Hanley, but the more you don't want to meet her, the more likely you are to meet her.
Vivian tugged on her bag and walked quickly with her head down, when suddenly, for some reason, she looked to the side and saw Hanley's silhouette from afar. She instantly tensed up and speeded up to get into the elevator.
Hanley took a few quick steps, blocked in front of Vivian, and entered the elevator before her.
Vivian's foot just stepped out, and then retracted. There was no one in the elevator, and she didn't want to be alone with Hanley in such a confined space.
But when she stepped back, she was pulled into the elevator by Hanley with a push.
"Hanley, what are you doing?"
Vivian looked at Hanley in horror as she stood in the corner in fear. She watched the elevator door slowly close and felt doubly powerless.
Because of what happened that day, Vivian still had a slight fear of Hanley in her heart. She didn't know what he would do in a confined space with only two people.
She pointed at her forehead and pushed Hanley away from her with all her might, shouting: "You've already caused a big swelling on your forehead, Hanley, can't you stop it? I really don't have the strength to fight with you anymore, really, let's pretend we don't know each other for a short time, can't we?"
Looking at the red and swollen spot on Vivian's forehead, Hanley froze for a moment before saying in a very low volume: "I'm sorry ......"
Vivian did not hear Hanley's words clearly, just said helplessly: "I'm begging you, Hanley, can you let me go? The injury on my forehead is painful enough, you do not make things worse, okay? Can I admit defeat?"
She was not one to admit defeat easily, but now she simply had no other choice but to admit defeat. She was not Hanley's opponent, and her brother's company was not Hanley's opponent either. She was willing to put aside her pride if she could get him to give up torturing them by giving in.
Hanley's hand paused for a moment and said in a slightly louder voice: "I'm sorry!"
He did not expect Vivian to say the words admit defeat, in his impression, she is a person who very much does not like to admit defeat. It was a bike race that she knew she would win or lose, she would also take it seriously and would not admit defeat easily. But now, she actually said to him that she conceded defeat ......
This time Vivian did hear clearly, but she thought she heard wrong. how could a person like Hanley, who was so arrogant, apologize to her?
"Hmm?"
Since the words have already been said once, naturally there is nothing to be embarrassed about. Hanley looked at Vivian with a serious face and said: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to that day, it's just that ...... originally I wanted to apologize to you, but you turned around and left without looking back, even in Under your house, you ......"
Vivian sneered, really or Hanley.
"Your apology, I'll accept it, as for the rest, Mr. Qin do not need to explain. Otherwise I will think it's my fault, I can't let me, the one who is hurt, bear the mistake again, right? But if Mr. Qin has to do so. Please don't worry, I will accept it, as long as Mr. Qin can be happy, let me do anything, just hope Mr. Qin can stop having physical contact with me, this kind of red and swollen injury, it really hurts!"
Vivian kept a businesslike smile throughout, and she took a small step back to keep the two at a safe distance.
She thought Hanley was genuinely apologizing, but when she heard his subsequent words, she laughed to herself. She was still delusional, thinking that he would really realize his mistake.
Hanley didn't know why Vivian was angry again, when he had apologized. But he knew the more he said the more he would only be wrong, so he directly trapped Vivian between him and the elevator wall with both hands, and he said carefully: "I'm sorry ...... I'm sorry ...... "
