A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 693

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 693

The sharp pain on her foot was so unbearable that she had to sit down. As she took off her shoes, she realized that her foot had swollen into huge, red lumps. This made sense since she had twisted her ankle from falling earlier. On top of that, she flung herself up the pit’s sides and landed harshly on her feet countless times. It’s no wonder her foot swelled badly.

The sky was darkening by the second, and the forest’s temperature dropped rapidly around Vivian. It wasn’t long before she was trembling from the cold.

How will Shannon explain my disappearance to everyone when she gets back? Will they come looking for me? Am I really going to spend the night in this cave? What if a wild animal shows up suddenly?

These thoughts ricocheted in her mind, bouncing back and forth furiously. Her heart raced with fear. What if no one finds me? What do I do? Will I die here?

No, absolutely not! She still had to take care of Larry. There was no way that she was letting anything bad happen to herself.

Vivian hurriedly pulled out her phone, but there was no signal. White-hot anger blurred her thoughts as she threw her phone aside. Latching onto the hope that someone might still pass by, she shouted at the pit’s opening, “Is anyone there? I’ve fallen in. Please help me, anyone!”

She called out again and again. Her voice had become hoarse and grated, but there was still no response.

Spending a night in zing temperatures without any source of heat… I’m going to ze to death, aren’t I? To make things worse, her foot was starting to ache. Hopeless desperation engulfed Vivian.

Just when she had surrendered to fate completely, a familiar voice sounded from above. It was deep and shaky with anxiety. “Vivian, are you okay? Is everything alright down there?”

Had someone finally come for her? Hope swelled in Vivian’s chest. Looking up, her eyes widened in surprise. Finnick crouched at the pit’s opening and leaned in. He stared at her with a face full of worry.
