Never Late, Never Away Chapter 140
Finnick stopped in his tracks after hearing what Liam said.
He snickered.
Oh Liam. You really are loyal to Mark.
“He values our relationship?” Finnick taunted. “Liam oh Liam. Looks like Mark never trusted you. Did he not tell you the truth behind the kidnapping ten years ago?”
“What do you mean?” Liam turned deathly pale.
Finnick simply ignored him and proceeded to leave the storage room.
Back in the hospital hallway, he finally gave Noah an order. “Settle this for me.”
“Understood, Mr. Norton,” Noah noted and he raised an eyebrow. “But don’t you want to see this through personally?”
Compared to when Finnick found out about Vivian getting hurt, his reaction this time was far more calmer. Noah had thought that the man would be furious.
Finnick sneered, “He’s just a pawn in the grand scheme of things. There’s no need to be too serious about it. Besides, the one that I’m after is still out of my reach for now.”
Noah immediately understood and said nothing further.
“One more thing.” Finnick suddenly thought of something as his gaze flickered. “Send Molly and her son overseas and give them some cash.”
Noah knew Finnick never blamed the innocent. He nodded and accepted the request.
By the time Finnick returned to the ward, night had fallen and the hallways were empty.
“Um. Mr. Norton. Would you like to head over to a hotel nearby? Or should I find an empty room for you?” Noah had no idea what Finnick wanted to do at the moment so he carefully probed.
However, Finnick’s answer left him in shock.
“It’s fine. I’ll sleep here in Vivian’s room.”
