Chapter 1641


    Levi knew that Vivian was scheming something and did not have any good intentions. They had to


    talk it out. It was unwise to y along as that would mean he was afraid of her.


    Levi had lots of experiences in dealing with people, but it was the first time someone other than


    Julien dared to threaten him.


    He responded, "I love Monique, and she is already my girlfriend. If there''s anything you want to say,


    just spill it. Vivian, there''s no need to beat around the bush."


    Vivian was momentarily stunned by his frankness but then chuckled softly. "Looks like I really need


    to have a good talk with you about Monique."


    Levi left a good impression on Vivian. He did not put on airs, nor did he act like a yboy and flirt


    frivolously.


    He was also rather polite and likable. If Vivian were not there to test him for Monique''s sake, she


    would have approved of him immediately.


    Hence, men really had the advantage. Men who had an aloof demeanor would be regarded as cool


    and girls would be drawn to them. As for men who were good at showering women with ttery,


    they were experts in rtionships.


    "Vivian, you are trying to test me for Monique''s sake, am I right?" Despite asking, Levi already knew


    that he was right. Vivian''s actions were extremely obvious.


    His words caught her off guard and sent a chill down her spine. Levi was indeed sharp. He saw


    through her at a nce.


    To Vivian, Monique was naive and innocent. She would be no match for this clever kid!


    Yes, she did n to test him, but Vivian would not be so silly as to admit it. "What do you mean by


    testing you? Monique is so young and innocent. As her sister, I must ensure that she picked the


    right man."


    Levi responded, "Vivian, I am well aware that Monique is young and naive when ites to


    rtionships. It''s only natural for you to be skeptical about me. If you have any concerns, I hope


    that you can ask me directly. There''s no need to beat around the bush."


    Seeing that he was so straightforward, Vivian agreed. "Well then, you happen to have the reputation


    of having a lot of girlfriends. In other words, you are a yboy. How can we believe that you are


    serious about Monique?


    How do we know you won''t betray her for some other women? Tell us."


    Levi knew that he had a bad reputation when it came to such matters. He had never gotten intimate


    with those women, but, he had no evidence. He said solemnly, "Let me prove myself with actions.


    It''s futile for me to say anything now."


    Vivian stared at him, confusion crossing her face. She replied, "Actions do speak louder than words.


    You indeed need to prove yourself with actions. However, Monique is dull-witted and innocent when


    ites to rtionships. You must take things slow or you might risk driving her away. Don''t force


    her to do anything she isn''t ready for..."


    "Vivian, I''m not forcing her. I just want to see her every day!" They were fine the other day at the


    hospital. However, Monique disregarded him after returning home. How could he not be anxious?


    "Well,e over to our home and you can see her there." Levi relented since that was his only


    option if he wanted to see Monique. On the way, Vivian broke the silence and said, "Well, I''ll let you


    know that Monique''s at our home, but she does not want to see you. I didn''t want to tell you the


    truth at first, but you seem to be sincere."


    Levi said anxiously, "Why doesn''t she want to see me?"


    Vivian shrugged and responded, "As I said just now, she''s pretty inexperienced when ites to


    rtionships. You have to give her time to get used to you, or you might scare her away."


    "Is she a coward?" She promised to be his girlfriend and there was no way he would allow her to go


    back on her words.


    "Yeah, she''s timid..." Vivian sighed. "Young Master Brown, do you want to know her secret? If


    there''s anything you wish to know, feel free to ask me. I promise I''ll tell you everything I know."


    "There are no secrets between us. She told me everything." Levi wanted to know everything about


    her, especially whether she had a crush on anyone before. However, he felt that it was


    inappropriate to ask Vivian. It was best the Monique revealed these truths herself... Although it was


    impossible for the time being.


    Monique didn''t even want to see him, let alone tell him about such intimate details of her past.


    "I know everything about her. However, since you are not interested, just pretend I did not mention


    it." Vivian chuckled. Levi couldn''t fool her. He was literally burning with curiosity.

    "I''m interested to know more, but..."


    "But you lower your ego to ask me?" Vivian chided.


    After a while, Levi nodded.


    Vivian added, "That proves that you don''t like her enough."


    "What do you mean?"


    "If you like her enough, you will be thinking about her all the time. You wouldn''t even value your


    pride." Vivian turned to look at him and asked, "Young Master Brown, am I right?"


    Beads of sweat collected on his forehead.


    Levi was known for his wit and eloquence, especially when facing Julien. However, he was no


    match for this sharp-tongued Vivian.


    It seemed that all the women in the Zellweger family were tough nuts to crack.


    "If you don''t respond, that means you agree with me." There were some things that Monique would


    definitely keep a secret from Levi. Vivian felt that she should be the one to tell him. Levi should


    know the pain and sufferings that Monique had endured so that he would treat her better. "My


    grandfather was an old- fashioned male chauvinist. He always wanted my mother to have a son. To


    my parents'' dismay, all three of us were girls. My dad didn''t want my mother to suffer anymore.


    Hence, he came up with a n and raised Monique as a son. My grandfather had high expectations


    of her since she was a kid. However, it was tragic once the truth was revealed. Monique suffered


    more than you think."


    "Vivian, I promise that I will take good care of her in the future." He had never heard about


    Monique''s past. He didn''t know that she grew up in such a harsh environment and always thought


    that her feisty stubbornness was just a natural trait.


    "Take good care of her?" Vivian scoffed. "Anyone can make a promise, but only a few people can


    carry it out. What about you?"


    Levi was dumbstruck.


    He could not refute Vivian...


    Vivian drove her point across. It was easy to make a promise, but it was usually difficult to fulfil it.
