A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 125

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 125

Vivian smiled and stopped talking.

The initial shock had worn off as she gradually digested what Jenny and Fabian had just told her.

She finally knew the identity of the woman she envied, which was none other than Finnick’s first love.

Not only that, but the woman was also already dead. No matter what the truth was, she had sacrificed her life for Finnick. It was an indisputable fact.

At last, Vivian understood the reason Finnick had such a sorrowful expression every time he looked at that crystal necklace.

He had once loved that woman deeply. She was burned to death because of him and perished at the age when she was at her prettiest and when he loved her most. Under such circumstances, how many people would be able to truly let go of the past?

The emotions which Finnick was experiencing inside his heart was unimaginable to Vivian.

Suffering severe injuries to his leg from the kidnapping incident was nothing compared to losing the love of his life, which was what really scarred him.

As for what Fabian and the rest said about Finnick abandoning Evelyn for his own survival— Vivian did not believe a single word of it.

Even if that was indeed what happened, Vivian trusted that Finnick must have had his reasons for doing so.

Perhaps that sounded a lot like trusting someone blindly, but the woman would always choose to believe Finnick.

Finnick had done the same for her with regards to the incident that happened to her two years back.

Trust and understanding were two important building blocks for every marriage.

Besides, Finnick had already suffered too much from that accident ten years ago. How could Vivian bear to add on to his pain by accusing him of being heartless?

When Vivian and Jenny ended their conversation, most of their co-workers from the magazine company had already returned from lunch.
