Never Late, Never Away Chapter 147
Vivian was shell shocked by now as she felt that Finnick’s incident sounded eerily similar to the fire that happened to her last time.
Nevertheless, she didn’t ponder on this thought very much, and she focused on what he was about to say instead.
How did Finnick manage to escape back then? Did he actually abandon Evelyn?
As Finnick stared at the tombstone, he continued his account, “When I regained consciousness, I noticed my hands were untied. On top of that, Evelyn was nowhere to be found.”
This development shocked Vivian.
I always wondered how Finnick was able to himself, but it turns out he was untied by someone else?
Most importantly, how did Evelyn disappear?
Vivian was not expecting such a development, so she asked, “Are you sure?”
Finnick narrowed his eyes at Evelyn and questioned, “You don’t believe me too?”
“It’s not that I don’t trust you,” she rushed to defend herself. Everything just sounded strange to her, and when she realized he had used the word “too,” she continued, “Wait, there are others who do not believe your account?”
“That’s right,” Finnick said as he looked down. “I told everyone about what happened after I managed to escape, but no one believed me. Even the police said I was making up stories, so they stopped investigating my case after a while.”
Vivian was dumbfounded.
She didn’t expect this to be the “truth” that she had been searching for all this while.
