A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 136

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 136

“What was it?” Without turning around, Finnick asked in a cold voice.

However, Fabian didn’t answer because he recognized the necklace that Vivian risked her life for trying to retrieve.

One time when Mark was drunk, he mocked Finnick by saying that he was a useless piece of lovesick trash because he still cherished a cheap crystal necklace even though Evelyn had been dead for ten years.

That means that Vivian tried to retrieve the necklace for Finnick’s sake.

Jealousy bubbled in him like an overflowing cauldron, so Fabian didn’t want to answer Finnick’s question. Instead, Fabian smirked and suggested, “If you really want to know, why don’t you ask her yourself?”

When Finnick heard that, he finally left for real because he no longer wanted to waste his words on Fabian.

Finnick returned to Vivian’s ward and saw that she was still fast asleep. She looked pallid and her brows were furrowed as if the pain from her wounds was troubling her even in her sleep.

Seeing that, Finnick felt a sharp tug in his heart.

“Tell the company that I’m not going back these few days. Arrange a video meeting if there’s anything urgent or just come look for me directly,” Finnick instructed Noah softly.

“Mr. Norton…” Noah was absolutely stunned because he had never seen the responsible Finnick Norton shirk his work even after working under him for many years.

Finnick ignored Noah’s shocked expression and approached Vivian, he then caressed her face tenderly with his slender fingers.

While Vivian was in dreamland, she suddenly felt a hand gently stroking her cheeks.

It was a familiar feeling, so she opened her eyes slightly and saw a superbly handsome face in her groggy state.

She stiffened and tried to sit up. “Finnick?”

However, Finnick pressed her shoulders down. “Don’t move. Just lie down.”

Vivian nodded and did as instructed.

“How are you feeling?” Finnick tried to sound as calm as possible, but a faint hint of anger still slipped through his lips.
