Never Late, Never Away Chapter 709
“Vivian, you’re here!” Evelyn exclaimed, pretending to be excited when she saw Vivian by the doorway. “I thought you won’t be coming today.”
Wheeling herself to Vivian’s side, Evelyn held onto her arm and muttered sweetly, “Vivian, I was wrong for what happened yesterday. Let me apologize to you. I’m sorry, you’re right. You and Finnick are divorced. I would be making things difficult for you by asking you to talk to him about my matters. I won’t voice unreasonable requests like this to you anymore. Just think of me for being insensible yesterday. Please forgive me.”
Not in the mood to entertain Evelyn’s acts, Vivian pried her arm off and walked toward Rachel instead; it was as if Vivian had not heard Evelyn’s words at all. “I’m going to deal with the procedures for your discharge first. Pack up. When I come back, I’ll take them up the car.”
When Evelyn noticed Vivian ignoring her, she clenched her fist as anger briefly crossed her face. However, in the next second, she looked like the epitome of misery again.
Walking toward Vivian, Evelyn carefully asked, “Vivian, I really know I’m in the wrong now. Please forgive me. I’ll do my best to fix what I’ve done wrong from now on. Please give me a chance to change!”
Anger stirred in Vivian as she watched Evelyn feign distress. At that very moment, she only wanted to yell at her to drop the act.
However, Rachel was around, and it felt inappropriate for her to do so. With how important Evelyn was to her, if Vivian were to lose her temper with Evelyn, she was sure that Rachel would reprimand her for it.
