Never Late, Never Away Chapter 104
Vivian froze. She turned to look at Finnick. “Was it when you were kidnapped ten years ago?
Finnick was raised in a rich family. Other than the kidnapping ten years ago, Vivian could not think of any way he could have been seriously injured.
“That’s right.” Finnick lowered his head as he applied medication to her wound, so she could not see his expression. “Three blows, all on my leg. If I weren’t treated in time back then, I would really have been crippled.”
Vivian’s arm shuddered. She then realized how irresponsible her words were. She lowered her gaze and murmured, “I’m sorry…”
“What are you sorry about?”
“I mentioned something upsetting.” Vivian suddenly felt that she had complained too much about her injury. It was minor in comparison to what Finnick had gone through. She was sounding like she was made of glass.
“It’s fine,” Finnick replied.
However, Vivian could not help but ask, “Do you have scars? Were there any repercussions?”
Although Vivian had glanced at Finnick’s body in the bathroom previously, he had a towel wrapped around his waist so she never saw his lower body. That was why she did not know about the wounds on this leg.
“My physical therapy was quite the success, so there aren’t any major issues. That spot only hurts when it rains,” Finnick answered. Right then, a thought entered his mind and he looked up at Vivian with a raised brow. “Why, do you want to take a look?”
“At the scar?” Vivian froze. The injury was at such a sensitive spot; how am I supposed to look at it? Hurriedly, she muttered, “No, no. Ah!”
She was in the middle of rejecting him when pain once again radiated from her injured arm, making her scream aloud.
“Finally, it’s out.” In comparison with Vivian’s pallid face, Finnick looked calm as he threw the cotton swab onto a piece of tissue.
Dumbfounded for a few seconds, she only realized what had happened after seeing the scab with pus at the tip of the cotton swab.
