Never Late, Never Away Chapter 413
Evelyn’s hatred towards Vivian instantly intensified.
“Ben, how could you slap me?” Evelyn cried out. “You’ve never beaten me since I was a child, and now you’re doing this because of an outsider!”
“Shouldn’t I?” Benedict replied furiously. “I’ve pampered you way too much over the years. Thus, you’re capable of hiring someone to commit a crime. Are you still the Evelyn I used to know?”
He was heartbroken. I always knew Evelyn was a wayward girl. Yet, I was surprised to find her committing such a cruel thing after many years of not meeting her!
Evelyn felt wrong when she heard Benedict reprimanding her in such a manner. “This isn’t my fault. It’s Vivian’s fault! How could she take Finnick away from me? None of this would have happened if she hadn’t married Finnick!” Evelyn shouted.
“Evelyn,” Benedict was speechless when he heard her words. “Vivian and Finnick are married. They’re a lawfully wedded couple. Therefore, you shouldn’t interfere with their marriage. Do you want to be a homewrecker in the eyes of the public?”
“I don’t care! Finnick’s mine, and mine alone!” Evelyn exclaimed loudly. “She has no right to be with Finnick. I met him first, so only I can be with him!”
Evelyn held Benedict’s arm with pleading eyes. “Ben, can’t you just pretend you didn’t see anything? Finnick won’t want her once he found out Vivian was tainted. Then, he’ll be with me. Please, Ben, just…”
Benedict could no longer tolerate Evelyn’s behavior as he raised his hands and slapped her once again. “How could you even think of doing this? I always knew you were domineering, but never would I have imagined you to become someone so vicious!”
