Never Late, Never Away Chapter 216
Vivian fled, only to intrigue her colleagues further.
Why is Vivian so secretive about her husband? Why does she refuse to introduce him all the time? When Vivian exited the company, she received a call from Harvey. “Vivian, I heard that your mother has woken up. How is she? Was she hospitalized again?” Harvey asked.
“Mom has woken up, and she’s doing fine now. She needs to rest,” Vivian replied.
Harvey started reminiscing about the past, how he had fallen in love with Rachel at first sight at those long black hair that cascaded down her shoulders and that pair of beautiful red lips.
Unfortunately, he had to give up on her as he had to rely on Emma’s family’s help to deal with the crisis that the Miller family’s company was facing at that time. For many years, Vivian had held a grudge against him for his own perfidy, and Emma had not given Rachel a break, never letting him get closer to her.
Now that Rachel had woken up, he simply wanted to give her a call and listen to her voice and ask for her forgiveness. Just as Harvey was lost for words, Emma, who came out of nowhere, snatched the phone from him. “Hello? Vivian, is that you? It’s me, Emma. We’re having dinner together this weekend and you have to join us.” Upon hearing Emma’s voice, Vivian’s hatred for her obsequious father deepened.
How did he even fall in love with such a violent woman?
Vivian didn’t want to go back when she recalled how she was treated the last time she went back. She had had enough, and she wanted to avoid them as much as she could, so she said, “I’m sorry. I’ll be working overtime on Sunday.”
“Overtime? That’s not a problem,” Emma laughed dryly.
“Isn’t Fabian your supervisor? I’ll just ask him to give you a day off on that day. I don’t care. You must come this Sunday.”
