Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1256
Finnick had called Fabian the day before his wedding to remind him of something. If it had not been for him, Fabian would not have recruited someone else to be his driver. In other words, Finnick technically saved their lives.
Since Finnick had reminded Fabian to make certain changes, his saying so was definitely not unfounded. He must have received plenty of inside information. After pondering over it, Fabian got out his phone and dialed Finnick’s number.
“Hello? Is that you, Fabian? What’s up? I heard the wedding vows that you had prepared for your wife at the wedding ceremony today. It was so surreal. I envy you. Please accept my hearty congratulations.”
When Finnick realized the phone call was from Fabian, he took the call enthusiastically.
Because of the incident with Vivian, Finnick had always felt guilty towards Fabian, so he had been helping out Fabian a lot behind the scenes.
“Thanks.” Fabian took a deep breath and, after a short pause, went straight to the point, “I believe you’ve gotten wind of the news. I was involved in a car accident after picking up Hannah.”
Once his phone rang and Finnick realized it was Fabian on the other line, he basically figured out why his nephew was calling him. And he was right.
“Yes, I’ve heard about it.”
“What I want to know is… who’s behind it?” Fabian asked.
Finnick was not one for banter. He quickly provided what he knew. “I can’t say for sure who’s behind it, but I’ve received news through my connections that someone was offering ten million on the black market to anyone who could hurt your wife. It’s highly likely that the culprit is from the Blackwood family or anyone who wants to marry into the Norton family.”
After hearing that, Fabian nodded briefly and even joked in response, “Wow! I didn’t expect that my wife and I are only worth ten million on the black market. Okay, that’s all I want to ask. Sorry for the intrusion.”
“Right. I think there’ll be more trouble ahead after what happened today. Stay alert, Fabian,” Finnick voiced his concern over the phone.
After Fabian hung up the phone, he thought over carefully what Finnick had just told him. Who is it that wants to harm Hannah? The Blackwood family? Someone who wants to marry into the Norton family?
