A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 161

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 161

Open-mouthed, Vivian stared at Lesley in a daze.

That was certainly by far the most absurd thing that had happened to her life.

As Finnick’s wife, she was going to cover the scandal involving her husband and a female celebrity. Apart from that, it was going to be published for everyone to read and become a piece of sensational news locally or even globally.

Is this a joke?

May I know how do you feel about being the crush of a female celebrity? How many dates have the two of you gone out on? How did the two of you meet each other? Who’s more attractive to you? Your wife or Ms. Ziller?

Some of the questions she might have to ask Finnick in the near future popped up in her mind.

Was it Fabian’s idea to let me be in charge of the coverage?

Does he think it would destroy my relationship with Finnick?

At that moment, Vivian had a feeling that she no longer knew Fabian as well as she had thought anymore.

At the same time, her colleagues shook their heads in sympathy when they learned that she was assigned with the demanding and arduous task.

Not only was it nigh impossible to get an interview with Finnick who had never been cooperative with reporters, arranging one with Yasmin would be an uphill task too, considering her hectic schedule. To make matters worse, she was a snob who was difficult to deal with. Without pulling some strings and exchanging favors with people, getting an interview with the two of them would be a task as challenging as doing a moon landing.

This time, Vivian knew it was destined to be a failure.

In the meantime, Shannon was smiling slyly to herself. She did not compete with Vivian for the chance because she knew she only had to wait on the sideline and watch how Vivian made a fool out of herself.

When Sarah volunteered to be Vivian’s assistant, Vivian cast her an appreciative glance.

Wait a minute. Won’t the idea of me doing a coverage on the scandal involving my husband and a female celebrity be too bizarre?

However, it was too late for her to turn it down as Lesley was already patting her shoulder, saying, “Our magazine will be counting on you to get a shot at becoming the best-selling magazine in the nation again! Vivian, just tell me if you need anything. We’ll try our best to fulfill your needs.”

It seemed like Lesley had made up her mind to entrust the mission to her. Nervously, Vivian swallowed hard.

To make matters worse, Shannon started spouting sarcastic remarks, “Vivian, it seems like you’re the only one who has what it takes to tackle this mission. Since you did an interview with Mr. Norton from the Finnor Group before and both of you even own the same ring, you really are the best candidate for this job.”

At first, Vivian thought of turning down the task. However, when she saw the persistence and determination in Lesley’s eyes, she realized she would not be able to defy her order.

Besides, she could not afford to quit the job as she still needed the money to pay for her mother’s living expenses and medical fees. After all, she couldn’t rely on financial support from Finnick. On top of that, it was about time she contributed something to the company, considering the company had been gracious enough to grant her requests for advance salary payment.

Guess I won’t be able to elude the trouble this time.
