A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 750

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 750

“No, she won’t!” Rachel retorted hastily. “I’ll make sure she won’t do that again. Vivian, please spare her this once for my sake, will you?”

Vivian was torn, but she couldn’t bring herself to forgive Evelyn. Hence, she changed the topic. “You should rest. We shall talk about this later. I’ll bring you some warm water to clean your face.”

With that, she stood up and headed for the door. She had barely taken two steps when Rachel caught her. Looking back, she realized Rachel had ripped the needle off the back of her hand and dropped to her knees in her haste.

“Vivian, please spare Evelyn’s life. I’ll apologize to you on her behalf!”

“What are you doing? What if your wound starts bleeding? Get up!” Vivian hurriedly pulled her up.

Rachel was, after all, someone she respected. This was already the second time Rachel got on her knees to defend Evelyn, and Vivian could feel raw anger welling up in her chest.

Alas, Rachel insisted, “If you refuse to spare Evelyn’s life, I won’t get up.” She pleaded, “Vivian, I know you’re kind-hearted. Can’t you help me with this once? Evelyn had suffered greatly over the years. Look, you’re alive and living well. Stop pressing the matter, will you?”

Clearly, she was insinuating that Vivian was being unreasonable. Feeling upset, Vivian returned sternly, “Evelyn tried to harm me repeatedly. I will never forgive her.”

Rachel immediately panicked. “But you weren’t injured, right? Besides, Finnick has reunited with you. You are a happy couple, but Evelyn is left with nothing. She’s still lying in bed. Why won’t you let her off the hook?”
