Never Late, Never Away Chapter 727
“I don’t understand what you’re saying. How is it possible for me to kidnap Finnick? I don’t have a clue about that because what had happened back then has nothing to do with me. I’m also a victim and I don’t know anything.” Evelyn spoke incoherently as she avoided Vivian’s gaze.
“Then, explain what you mean when you said that just now. Why did you say that!” Vivian asked relentlessly.
Five years ago, she was very suspicious of the kidnapping case and asked Samuel to get someone to investigate it again. Although they found some clues, she went ahead with the divorce with Finnick before the truth was revealed. After that, she fled the country without returning and did not pursue the matter further ever since.
When Vivian heard Evelyn say that, she felt deep within her heart that she must have had something to do with what happened in the past. Today, I must find out the truth no matter what!
“I… I… I didn’t say anything earlier. I don’t know what you’re asking.” Evelyn could only deny it because she couldn’t think of any good excuses.
Upon seeing that, Vivian was even more sure about her own suspicions as she said, “Evelyn, it’s too late for you to deny it now. No matter what, you must come clean to me about this matter today. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being harsh with you!”
Evelyn didn’t take Vivian’s threat to heart at all. They had fought for so many years, so they knew each other fairly well. It seemed to her that Vivian was someone with a soft heart and was not very ambitious. She was never ruthless and decisive enough to succeed at anything.
At the thought of that, Evelyn regained her composure and said, “Don’t start threatening me, Vivian. Let me go immediately, otherwise I will never let this slide!”
“So you’re going to be stubborn and not come clean, right?” With a slightly raised tone and a dangerous expression on her face, Vivian said, “Alright, you’re the one who is forcing me. I want to see how you’re not going to let things slide with me.”
Vivian stood up, turned to face Hunter and said, “Go out for a while, it’s not convenient for you to be here for what’s about to happen.”
Upon hearing Vivian’s words, Hunter couldn’t help but worry as he responded, “Vivian, what are you planning to do? It would be better for me to accompany you here. If you’re alone in here, I’ll be worried.”
