Never Late, Never Away Chapter 593
At that moment, the phone on Finnick’s desk started ringing.
The receptionist’s voice rang out after he’d impatiently pressed the “answer” button. “Mr. Norton, Mr. Mark Norton is here to see you. Should I send him up?”
“No.” Finnick hung up the call.
Seeing Mark now would only add to his growing headache. One Evelyn was enough to deal with; he didn’t have the energy to deal with Mark as well.
“Evelyn, we…”
Ring…
Finnick, about to clarify to Evelyn exactly what their relationship was, was interrupted by the phone ringing once more.
“What is it now?” Finnick’s eyebrows knitted together as he picked up the phone.
“Mr. Mark Norton insists on meeting you, sir. He said that he has something important regarding Vivian to tell you.” The receptionist’s voice tremored slightly as she passed on the information. Her boss sounded like he was in a bad mood, and she prayed with all her heart that he wouldn’t unleash his anger on her.
Finnick hesitated upon the mention of Vivian’s name, curious as to why Mark would want to talk to him about her.
“Send him up.”
Evelyn’s crying had subsided as she listened in on the call, her face falling slightly. She had a bad feeling about this.
What does Mark want to talk to Finnick about?
Soon, Finnick’s assistant led Mark into the office, who felt a slight twinge of guilt when he saw that Evelyn was here as well.
