Chapter 4
The revelation stunned Vivian. Before she could react, Finnick shot them a small smile. “You are from Glamour Magazine, right? Please take a seat.”
“Vivian, what are you still standing around for?”
The reminder from Sarah snapped Vivian out of her daze, as she soon followed them to the couch.
Finnick glided over and stopped in front of them. Sarah's face was full of excitement as she asked, “Mr. Norton, may we begin?"
“Sure.” Finnick’s expression was rather placid. Up till now, he had not even given Vivian a second glance. It was almost like they were complete strangers.
His distant attitude had even caused Vivian to wonder if this man was just a random person who had a striking resemblance to her new husband.
“Well... Mr. Norton, since you've been very mysterious so far, everyone is dying to know what your full name is.” Blushing a bright red, Sarah began the interview. “Do you mind telling us your
name?”
“Finnick Norton,” he replied succinctly. The moment the words left his thin lips, Vivian’s hopes were dashed.
Finnick Norton. He really is my new husband!
“Finnick Norton. What a pleasant name!” Jenny flattered with a smile. “Next, we would like to ask you a series of questions.”
With that, Jenny tured to shoot Vivian a pointed look. Upon noticing that Vivian was still staring at Finnick stupidly, she surreptitiously pinched the daydreaming woman.
“Il guess you could say that I’m half a local.” In stark contrast to Vivian's earlier panic, Finnick was as cool as a cucumber. “| was born here but I'd left for A Nation when | was really young.”
At his words, Vivian suddenly felt like she had wanted to burst out in laughter. The man sitting across from her was supposed to be her husband, yet she knew absolutely nothing about him.
However, she was working now, so she pushed aside her random thoughts. She continued the interview, going down the list of questions that they had prepared beforehand.
Getting into the flow of things, Vivian temporarily forgot that she was actually interviewing her husband. However, when her eyes landed on the next question, her words got stuck in her
throat. An awkward silence descended upon the office.
