Hmmm that would not exactly fit with Christian's statement where he said he let her always the door open to make her own decision.
He always tested her before to give her the feeling she might be in control and has more than just one option available.
He never blackmails her directly.
Like in the bathroom scene where Vivian proposes that every debt against Hutch is paid when she accepts to have sex with him (while already stroking his penis).
They had sex in the backyard and imo initiated by Vivian. Then we have the task Christian ordered Hutch to do and he failed without Christian saying it but also with the fact that Vivian saw the empty blog from Hutch. Now Vivian knowing Hutch failed and Christian insisting not to leave his house drunken and reaching out his hand to Vivian to bunk with him, she says to Hutch that she's a big girl and he should let her worry about herself.
What happens there is unclear but they seem to have a conversation whose content leaves a lot of room for conjecture.
Christian might have joked about him sleeping naked and hopes she wouldn't feel uncomfortable but also have insisted that she does not go to sleep in this dress. Now with him being naked and Vivian without slip (backyard) and bra also, it's hard to believe Christian wouldn't miss the opportunity with having a hard on to ask Vivian if she would mind to help him out with his problem...again the door is open.
Umm, nice fiction there. But, I really don't see it happening that way. At the first blush, there would have been a negotiation: you spread your legs right here and now, or tomorrow Hutch is leaving the company. And from that, she would have had that threat carry on to where she was faced to stay the night. And, you could see it by her facical expressions that she wasn't comfortable with it. It was all his idea to force her into it, and because of the threat still hanging over them (as a couple), she went through with other things.
But, in her own mind, after that full night of sex, she thinks she's done enough so that at least the job is secure. That's her hope. And, I don't think there would be that much negociation in the bedroom. Christian would have just told her what he wanted, and she submitted. I see it that way. And, I'm not sure why there's such an opposing point of view when I'm sure it happened like the way I picture.
But, before I go, I don't remember that line of Christian saying he left the door open. I've only played the game once, and I could have missed that. I'll have to play it again at some point.
