Never Late, Never Away Chapter 666
Her colleagues had always been a persistent bunch. If she made her way downstairs, they would definitely get to the bottom of her departure. Perhaps they would soon figure out Finnick had reserved a honeymoon suite for her. If that was the case, she wouldn’t be able to face them anymore.
Finnick is such a jerk! I can’t believe he manages to put me in such a tight spot!
“Vivian, don’t worry! I’ll spend the night on the couch and stay away from you!” Finnick was on cloud nine because Vivian hesitated and stopped insisting on leaving.
In the end, she gave in and brought her luggage back to the room. She was afraid of the gossipmongers from her team. Since it was merely a few days, it wouldn’t be much of a big deal either.
Following Vivian to the room, Finnick asked with a grin, “Vivian, we—”
She interrupted him and declared, “Finnick, I’ll consider myself unlucky for once! Indeed, I’m afraid of the gossipmongers! Therefore, I’ll let you off the hook for once!”
Halfway through her orated speech, she pointed in the direction of the entrance and deadpanned, “Please honor your promise and spend the night on the couch! I don’t want you anywhere near the room without my permission! Also, please leave me alone because I need to unpack my stuff!”
When he caught her raging eyes, he knew she was frustrated at the thought of being deceived by him.
“W-When it’s about time to head out, I’ll knock on the door to get you again.” Finnick rushed out of the room at top speed once he finished his sentence. The moment he walked out of the room, he heard a click. The door was locked the very second he left.
Staring at the door, his heart ached. He couldn’t help but wonder when they would get to patch things up. He had been longing for her to open up to him once again.
On the other hand, Vivian slouched on the bed because she was completely worn out. Her mind was all over the place because of the series of things she had to go through.
