Never Late, Never Away Chapter 770
“Then?” Benedict asked as he started to smile. No one could have thought that a mere child would have so many tricks up his sleeve.
“Then, I asked around and found out about this place. So I took a taxi over and called Mommy,” replied Larry as he glanced at his mother to see if she was angry.
Vivian was now only relieved about the entire situation. Her anger had passed long ago.
“You’re really smart, Larry. But you can’t be so naughty next time.” Benedict attributed everything that had happened to a mere child’s playfulness.
“Uncle Benedict, I wasn’t playing. I just thought that Mommy and Daddy needed to talk things out,” Larry disagreed. Although he was still a child, Larry did not think like how a normal child.
He wanted to help his Mommy and Daddy reconcile. It was not just for fun.
Initially, Benedict did not think much of Larry’s words. It was only when he called Finnick ‘Daddy’ that Benedict became stunned.
He looked to Vivian questioningly. She simply gave him a nod and he then smiled knowingly.
“Okay, Larry’s the best.” Benedict took Larry in his arms and glanced at Vivian before he turned and left.
He did not want to get mixed up in the couple’s conversation this time. He trusted his sister to handle her own issues well.
“Vivian, wait.” Finnick grabbed her hand as she was about to follow Benedict out.
He did not know when he would be able to see her again once she left. Thus, he did not intend to let her leave.
“Finnick, aren’t you always trying to lie to me? Since Noah’s here now, let’s get things clear.”
Vivian wanted to get to the bottom of things. Otherwise, she would really be kept in the dark for the rest of her life.
“Okay, go ahead.” Finnick was sure that he had not done anything wrong to Vivian, so he was not afraid.
