Never Late, Never Away Chapter 448
“A month?” Finnick’s face darkened as he counted the number of days in his heart. A month ago was the exact date that Vivian got kidnapped. With that, it was unlikely for the child to be biologically related to him.
“Yes.” Vivian nodded her head without noticing the change in Finnick’s expression. “To be exact, I might’ve gotten pregnant with the child the night before I got kidnapped.”
Finnick recalled that they had indeed gotten intimate on that night before she got kidnapped. Could it really be that coincidental, though… They had always wanted a kid, but even so, Vivian was still not pregnant. So how is it possible that out of all those times, she was only impregnated that night?
Thus, Finnick felt dubious regarding that. If his guess was right, it meant that the child could be a result of the gang rape.
As his thoughts drifted in that direction, the image of the four men ripping Vivian’s clothes off ignited the anger within him.
He clenched his fists hard and muttered, “Mark Norton, one day I’ll make you pay for that.”
Feeling the anger that Finnick possessed, Vivian looked at him helplessly. She wondered why Finnick did not show any delight after the news of her pregnancy.
“Finnick, are you okay?” Vivian questioned in an annoyed tone. “Didn’t you hope for a child all along? Why do you seem unhappy about it now?”
“N-no, Vivian. I…” Finnick was unsure of how to articulate his thoughts to Vivian. He had a strong urge to hunt for the four guys and skin them alive as he got reminded that Vivian was pregnant with the child of another guy.
The fact that Vivian broke the news of her pregnancy in excitement shattered his heart further.
Finnick could not face Vivian because it would only hurt his heart seeing her exuberant joy when she spoke about the child.
