Never Late, Never Away Chapter 282
The two of them kissed for quite a while before parting. All their previous troubles had already been kissed away by then.
Now Finnick felt like it was the right time to explain himself to Vivian.
Finnick let go of Vivian unwillingly and said in a low voice, “You remember the story I told you about how a little girl once saved my life when I was younger, right?”
“Yeah. You even showed me pictures.” Vivian didn’t know why he was suddenly bringing it up.
“That little girl was Ashley Miller.”
“What?”
Vivian widened her eyes in disbelief.
That’s a really huge coincidence!
“How could it be Ashley? Did you guys check properly?” Vivian still couldn’t believe her ears.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to believe it, but after knowing Ashley for many years, she couldn’t understand how Ashley could be kind enough to help a stranger.
Finnick said, “It should be. Based on the picture and the limited edition buyers’ name list, Ashley is the most likely candidate. Her age also lines up with the timing.”
Vivian remembered the picture Finnick showed her. There was a little girl in the picture with a limited edition Disney princess dress that Ashley also happened to own. At the time, she thought it was merely a coincidence. Who would have known that it was really Ashley?
Finnick said guiltily, “I know Ashley did a lot of nasty things to you, but she did save my life, so I had to repay the favor.”
Vivian finally realized that Finnick’s strange attitude toward Ashley the last few days was simply him trying to repay the debt and not out of kindness or pity.
Finnick still loved her.
“Finnick, I get it.” After a while, she finally spoke. “If I were in your position, I’d have done the same thing.”
Finnick’s slightly furrowed brows finally relaxed at that.
