Never Late, Never Away Chapter 370
“I’m fine with anything, I’ll just listen to you.” Vivian didn’t want to continue talking to Evelyn about Finnick.
“If that’s the case,” Evelyn paused, “Let’s go to the mall where Finnick usually accompanies me to and have a look. What do you think?”
Vivian’s expression, which had just eased up a bit, instantly darkened again. What exactly is Evelyn trying to say?
Evelyn didn’t seem to notice Vivian’s obvious change in expression and continued, “In the past, Finnick used to worry that I would be bored at home and didn’t want me to go out alone, so he usually goes out with me often. By the way, Vivian, where do you and Finnick usually go? Can you take me there later? I haven’t been back in so many years that I almost forgot what the city looks like.”
A sense of disappointment flashed across Vivian’s face when she heard Evelyn mention that Finnick used to accompany her to the mall, then she replied casually, “Finnick is very busy and he has a lot to deal with at the company, so we rarely go out.”
“What? He doesn’t usually go out with you?” Evelyn was shocked. “How can Finnick treat you this way? He used to have time for his girlfriend, but now he doesn’t have time for his wife? Is the company’s business more important than you? Vivian, don’t worry, I’ll definitely find an opportunity to help you teach him a lesson in the future.”
Even though Evelyn had an indignant look on her face, her tone was one that was gloating and her eyes were scornful as she looked at Vivian. Hmph, and here I was wondering how much Finnick likes you.
Even if Vivian was a fool, she understood what Evelyn meant. She wasn’t asking her to go shopping, she was just here to show her that Finnick and her deep connection could not be matched by Vivian.
“No need, Finnick treats me quite well.” Since Vivian preferred not to have a fall out with others, she replied back to Evelyn in a somewhat calm manner, but her tone was rather cold.
“Is that so?” Evelyn looked at Vivian suspiciously and asked, clearly not believing what she had just said. “Vivian, you don’t have to deceive yourself and others, although Finnick and I are… But don’t worry, I will not interfere with your relationship.”
