Never Late, Never Away Chapter 299
Indeed, Ashley was here for Finnick. Otherwise, she would never have this courage to do so.
Vivian replied impatiently, “You better leave. Finnick is not here.”
“Not here?” Ashley saw that the house seemed very quiet, and that Finnick should not be there. However, she did not look like she was about to leave. “If he is not here, I’ll just wait for him then.”
With that, she sat on the sofa, ran her fingers across the leather and said sarcastically, “Oh, your sofa is not bad, isn’t it? Handmade Italian leather? Vivian, you’ve indeed made it for yourself.”
Vivian was about to throw her out, but she was reminded that Ashley was Finnick’s savior. So, it wouldn’t do to just chase her out. Vivian had no choice but to remain quiet.
Ashley walked around their house.
This house may not be as big as the Miller Residence, but it was done up in a luxurious manner. Every single bead of the chandelier in the living room was made out of real crystals. She could tell from one glance based on its shine.
She could barely hide her jealousy by now.
Who did Vivian, the illegitimate daughter think she was to live in such a nice place?
At the same time, Vivian brewed another pot of hot tea and poured a cup for Ashley.
Ashley shot her a glance and held her head high. “Look at the way you are pouring tea. You do look like a housemaid’s child. So professional. Hahaha!”
“Please help yourself.”
Vivian could not be bothered to argue further with her. She continued to host her politely and served Ashley some snacks that were nutritious for pregnant women. Finnick had his people buy that for her.
