Never Late, Never Away Chapter 396
Without a choice, Vivian continued to suppress her anger. “Are you done? If so, then you can leave now.”
Evelyn let out a cold snort. She was surprised that Vivian did not explode with rage like the last time. Hence, she inched closer and whispered in Vivian’s ear to provoke her further, “Don’t worry, I’ll take back what was mine.” After that, Evelyn stood up and looked at Vivian in defiance.
All of a sudden, Vivian recalled someone seemed to have made a similar remark like this before. She paused for a bit and finally remembered. It was a remark her Twitter follower, “Back to the Past,” had made: It’s time to return the item to its owner.
“You’re ‘Back to the Past’!” Vivian exclaimed in disbelief while pointing at Evelyn.
“Bingo,” Evelyn chuckled, “Are you that innocent, or are you plain dumb?”
“And you’re also the one who released the birthday video?” Vivian was dumbstruck. She did not realize Evelyn had been following her Twitter for such a long time.
Upon that, Evelyn seemed to be very proud of her achievement. “Of course, it’s me, you fool. I wish I could continue to play this game with you, but you’re just too dumb.”
She then turned around and left after mocking Vivian for the one last time.
Feeling stunned, Vivian froze in the pantry for a long time.
Never in a million years did she think Evelyn was “Back to the Past.” Why didn’t I suspect anything earlier? She’s right. I’m stupid. I’m so stupid!
She went back to her seat and continued working under the watchful eyes of all her colleagues for the rest of the day.
The day had finally come to an end, and she went home immediately. At that time, Finnick was still nowhere to be found.
