A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 460

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 460

Benedict shook his head and smiled at Vivian. “Evelyn’s birthday is on the twelve of September, so it’s still far off. When we throw her a birthday party then, you will definitely be invited.”

“Thank you.” Vivian forced a smile at Benedict. However, she felt that something was wrong. Why is Evelyn’s birthday so close to mine?

Unless… An idea faintly emerged in Vivian’s head. She refused to believe her guess earlier. But now, her thoughts were driving her crazy.

No, it can’t be. In her mind, Vivian was trying to convince herself that Rachel wouldn’t do something like that.

As Vivian stared blankly at her coffee mug, her eyes were filled with disbelief. She mumbled softly to herself, “It can’t be. It can’t be…”

Puzzled by her reaction, Benedict asked, “Are you alright? What can’t be?”

“Huh?” Benedict’s words jolted Vivian back to her senses. “No, it’s nothing.”

Raising her head to look at him, Vivian’s eyes were filled with mixed emotions. Is the reason I feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity with Benedict because… She didn’t dare think any further as she tried to maintain her presence of mind.

“I just remembered I have something important to deal with. I’m sorry to have invited you out but end up leaving early instead,” Vivian remarked in an apologetic manner.

Benedict smiled as he didn’t mind. “It’s alright. Coincidentally, I have been busy recently and did not have the opportunity to relax. Hence, I have just given myself the day off today.”

“Mmm-hmm.” Vivian was grateful for how considerate he was. “In that case, I’ll take my leave first.”

“Do you need me to give you a lift?”

“No, no.” Vivian declined his kind offer immediately. “The place I’m going to is close by. So it’s fine.”
