A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 159

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 159

Rachel’s eyes became dodgy when she learned that her daughter had developed feelings for Finnick.

Knowing well that Vivian had gone through a fair share of ordeal in her past, all she wanted for her was a dependable man who knew her well, treated her nicely, and loved her with all his heart.

However, is Finnick the right man who can bring her happiness in life?

Trying to blend into the world of the rich is something easier said than done.

Would Finnick turn out to be a fickle-minded man in relationships? Could his relationship with Vivian withstand all the challenges and obstacles that are looming ahead of them?

Vivian knew the doubts her mother was having about their relationship. In a soft voice, she tried to convince her mother, “My beloved mother, Finnick risked his life on several occasions before just to protect me from danger. I really love him, and I believe he’s the right guy for me. So, please don’t worry about me.”

The moment Rachel saw the blissful smile on her daughter’s face, she finally caved in.

“Well, since you’re married to him, I guess the right thing to do is to make the most out of your life with him. I’m happy as long as you are.”

Wrapping her arms around her mother, Vivian said coyly, “Mom, I know you’re the one who loves me the most, and you should know that you’re the most precious person in my life. Please don’t worry about me because I know how to take care of myself.”

“You silly girl.” Rachel’s eyes glistened with tears when she said that.

Finnick bumped into the heartwarming scene when he made it back with food. He had the gumption to sit down by the door so as not to interrupt their moment.

Satisfied with his sensible action, Rachel’s attitude thawed substantially. Surprisingly, she extended her hand toward him and invited him for a talk, “Finnick, come over here because I have something to tell you.”

“Finnick.” She placed emphasis on every single word of her sentence to show how serious her speech was. “Vivian is my only daughter, and she’s gone through quite a difficult time when she was staying with me. Therefore, all I want for her is a good guy who knows how to take care of her well, regardless of whether that guy has deep pockets or otherwise. Since she’s told me that you’re the love of her life, I have no choice but to entrust her happiness to you.”

Finnick turned to look at Vivian with astonishment in his eyes.

He knew Vivian must have told her mother something that led to the sudden change in her attitude.

He could still remember the time Vivian assured her mother that she had no feelings for him and their marriage only existed in name.

So, is Rachel treating me so amiably because Vivian has confessed to her how much she would like to spend the rest of her life with me?

At the thought of that possibility, the tensed muscles in his face relaxed a great deal.

This is perfect.
