A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 107

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 107

While the rest of the necklace was carved delicately, it was obvious that this word was carved by someone unfamiliar with jewelry. It was slightly rough but readable—Eve.

Eve…

The elder Mr. Norton’s words suddenly echoed in her mind. it’s been ten years. Ever since Evelyn died, I thought Finnick won’t fall in love with anyone else anymore.

Does this necklace belong to that woman named Evelyn?

Who is she? Is she Finnick’s ex-girlfriend? What happened to her?

Driven by curiosity, Vivian could not help but take the photos out of the drawer as well.

When she saw the photos, her hands stiffened.

In the photos were a young man and woman in their late teens.

Vivian easily recognized the young man as Finnick.

It was Finnick when he was much younger; he did not look like the mature man he was now. In the photos, he looked just as handsome but more youthful and exuberant.

If today’s Finnick were a cup of aromatic and gentle white tea, the Finnick back then must have been a glass of whiskey, intense and proud. But just as good-looking to attract anybody with one glance.

However, what Vivian was more concerned with was the girl in the photo.

She was beautiful, so pretty to the point even Vivian could not tear her eyes away from her.

She had always thought Ashley was beautiful, but in comparison with this girl, who was like a rose, Ashley was a mere carnation. There was something the girl had that Ashley did not.

Is this pretty girl… Evelyn? The owner of this necklace?

A sense of misery surged in Vivian’s heart.

It was the same feeling as she had felt back in elementary school when Harvey finally grew a conscience and transferred her to a private school. The first time she saw Ashley, the latter was wearing a pretty dress while she herself was in hand-me-downs that had belonged to a neighbor’s son. Vivian now felt the same anxiety.

Vivian was lost in her thoughts. She did not even notice that the sound of running water from the bathroom had ceased.
