Never Late, Never Away Chapter 618
As Finnick remained silent, Vivian’s lips curled up into a smirk. “What’s wrong? Are you suspecting me of framing Evelyn again?”
Finnick was rather hurt by her mocking tone, but he couldn’t find any words to refute her.
After all, he had trusted Evelyn’s lies and lost Vivian’s trust. The only thing he could do now was to offer his most sincere apology.
“Vivian, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have believed Evelyn back then. I promise I’ll never doubt you again from now on.”
From now on? Do we even have a future? That thought popped up in Vivian’s mind.
“Vivian, Evelyn became a cripple because of me. She has paid dearly for her actions. Let’s just let her off this time, alright?” cajoled Finnick.
Finnick saw firsthand how Evelyn struggled to survive over the years. She wasn’t even half of what she used to be. Evelyn used to be a popular designer, but after she lost the ability to walk, her career went down the drain.
As he was the cause of her disability, Finnick couldn’t help but feel sorry for her. He still hated her for what she did, but guilt washed over him whenever he remembered how she had gotten into this state.
I’ll think of it as returning her favor this time. From today onward, we both owe each other nothing. But if she hurts Vivian again, I’ll make sure she pays for her actions.
Alas, Vivian couldn’t read his mind. When she heard him defending Evelyn, anger welled up in her chest.
Ha! Finnick is still defending Evelyn. Right, I nearly forgot that they were childhood sweethearts. They have been together for the past five years. The more Vivian thought about it, the angrier she became.
If Finnick doesn’t want to pursue the matter, fine. But I will for all her evil deeds on me and Larry. I must make her get a taste of her own medicine!
