Three Years Forgotten, Why Go Crazy When I Say Goodbye? novel Chapter 529

Jayden genuinely appreciated her sharp mind. "You're absolutely right. If I could pull this off myself, I wouldn't have come looking for you."

He paused, his gaze openly appraising her face with a mix of calculation, weighing the odds, and unmasked conspiracy. "But I can't do it, because I'm not a woman. Mr. Smith doesn't know who this WH is, but he is absolutely certain of one thing: she is female."

Vivienne was losing her patience. "What exactly are you getting at?"

"It's simple," Jayden said, slowly straightening up. His tone was as casual as a chat over coffee, but his words were chillingly ruthless. "If you want to find someone without searching through a sea of faces, the best, most direct, and easiest method... is to become that person."

For a moment, Vivienne froze, fully grasping his implication.

He didn't want her to find the real person. He wanted her to impersonate WH. Only someone like him could concoct such a scheme.

It was absurd, venomous, and entirely devoid of morals—the ultimate high-wire act of deception.

Yet, Vivienne didn't feel a shred of fear. Instead, an icy wave of adrenaline rushed through her veins.

She quickly regained her composure, her meticulous mind racing as she immediately spotted the flaw in the plan. "That's easy to say, but I know nothing about this WH. How am I supposed to impersonate her?"

Jayden couldn't care less about her reaction. In fact, the more stubborn she acted, the more entertaining he found it. Right now, she needed him. One day, she would be the one begging for his help. When those roles reversed, he'd make sure she cried for it.

Jayden didn't stay at the hospital much longer. He left quickly, partly because he didn't want to draw attention by overstaying, and partly because he had a lot of preparations to make. Despite acting so confident and assured in front of Vivienne, the truth was, he wasn't entirely certain this would work.

Mr. Smith was a stubborn and cautious man who rarely spoke about his personal affairs. Plus, as a foreigner among the research team, Jayden wasn't highly regarded, making it incredibly difficult for him to dig up more intel. But for the sake of his own ambitions—and to keep Vivienne on the hook—Jayden was willing to risk it all.

Remembering the soft feel of her skin against his fingertips, his smile widened. He was already looking forward to their next encounter.
