A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 654

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 654

It was impossible that Vivian didn’t blame Noah at all. But she knew that it was not entirely the latter’s fault. He was just following Finnick’s order, after all.

“It’s okay. I know that incident has nothing to do with you. You are just following the order,” said Vivian.

Seeing as Vivian being so forgiving, Noah felt even more apologetic. “Mrs. Norton, it’s not like that. I-I…”

Noah wanted to muster up his courage and reveal the truth, but he failed to do so.

“Okay, stop it. I don’t want to continue dwelling on this topic anymore. Keep your eyes on the road.” Vivian could feel a tinge of remorse in Noah’s tone, but she didn’t want to recall the incident that occurred back then ever again.

Hearing that, Noah didn’t say anything else. But, he couldn’t focus on driving either. At that time, he contemplated whether to tell Vivian the truth.

Without knowing it, the car had reached the Morrison residence. Vivian opened the door and got out of the car. After waving her hand at Noah, she turned and headed in the direction of the door.

Staring at Vivian’s back, Noah had a mental bout of tug-of-war. But in the end, he decided to keep mum about the truth. To him, it was too difficult to make a confession and explain everything to the former.

After reaching home, Vivian found that Benedict was sitting on the sofa with an anxious expression on his face.

Hence, she walked toward the latter and asked, “Ben, what’s wrong?”

“Vivian!” When Benedict saw her, he sprang up, and his face gleamed with delight. But soon, he said with a serious tone, “Where have you been? Why didn’t you pick up my call? I’m worried sick about you, do you know that?”

“What?” Hearing that, Vivian immediately grabbed her phone from her bag. Then, she noticed that she had several missed calls. “Sorry, Ben. I set my phone on silent mode, so I didn’t hear it ringing.”

Upon seeing guilt on Vivian’s face, Benedict softened his tone and signaled for the former to sit down. “Don’t forget to turn on the ringtone next time. I thought something happened to you just now. Where did you go?”
