A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 692

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 692

Shannon didn’t want everyone asking her where Vivian went, so she hid here. She planned to go back a little later. This way, if anyone asked, she could say that she and Vivian had split up to search for Sarah. She would explain that she couldn’t find Vivian after being separated, so she came back on her own.

However, she didn’t expect that Finnick would find her so quickly. It threw her off guard and made her too flustered to react normally.

Shannon’s incoherent story made Finnick more suspicious of her. If she really got separated from Vivian, then she should be happy to be found and rescued. Why was she so nervous and afraid?

Five years ago, before their divorce, Vivian mentioned that she didn’t get along with Shannon from the magazine company. She said that there was always animosity between the two of them. And now, Shannon reacted so suspiciously. Could it be that she did something bad to Vivian?

The thought of this boiled anger in Finnick. He pounced towards Shannon and snarled, “You really don’t know where Vivian went? How did you two get separated?”

“W-we couldn’t find Sarah. Vivian got worried and said we’d have better chances of finding her by splitting up. So we did that. Then… then I lost sight of her. All I could do was wait here.”

Finnick’s rough tone made Shannon, who already had a guilty conscience, even more panicked. She was a bundle of nerves, and her words came out all jumbled. There was no way she could fool Finnick.

“Spit it out! Do you really not know where Vivian is?” Finnick raised his voice. His brows furrowed tautly as he roared, “I’m warning you, best not lie. Otherwise, I’ll make you pay the price of lying to me.”

Finnick’s superiority had always been eminent; now, hostility coursed from his body, dangerously seeping into the air around them. It threatened Shannon, making it impossible for someone meager like her to withstand.

For a moment, she was so frightened that she couldn’t think straight. She yelled frustratedly, “She was so ruthless to you before! Why do you still care so much about her?”

Shannon’s response confirmed Finnick’s suspicion. She definitely knew where Vivian was.
