A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 685

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 685

“It has been a while since they left, and it is a little worrisome. We should spread out and look for them.”

Hearing everybody’s thoughts and comments got Vivian to worry. “It is dangerous for a woman like Sarah to go collect firewood on her own. Let’s spread out and look for her, but make sure that there are at least three people in your team at all times. Don’t stray from each other and remember, safety first.”

“Okay,” replied the others before they teamed up and ventured into the woods.

Shannon walked with two colleagues. One of them turned to Shannon and spoke up when they got further away from the others.

“Shannon, why did you say all that in front of the Chief Editor? What if she makes things difficult for you at work?” said one colleague.

“I was just telling the truth. Charlotte is young and beautiful, whereas Finnick is single. Who’s to say that they won’t get together?” said Shannon nonchalantly.

“That may be true, but you know what happened between Finnick and the Chief Editor. It’s extremely likely that Finnick only came on this trip to try to get back together with the Chief Editor. Why do you insist on upsetting her? She is our boss, and going against her won’t benefit you at all,” reminded the other colleague kindly.

“She would never have gotten that job or be our boss if it wasn’t for her connection to the Morrison family! I was the one who was supposed to be promoted,” growled Shannon, who only became more furious after hearing what the guy said.

“That’s not true. The Chief Editor does have the skills to do the job well. Our sales have been rising ever since she took over, and we were ranked number one for two continuous issues,” refuted the guy.

He then added, “We have never accomplished anything like that before, and that could not have happened if all she can do is tap into her connection to the Morrisons. Honestly, we should thank her. If she hadn’t helped us achieve all that, the head office would never have rewarded us with a trip here.”
