A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 779

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 779

Benedict decided that he would simply reveal the truth, and in doing so, quell the police chief’s intention of ingratiating himself to him.

“Ah, please thank your chief on my behalf, but it was actually a child’s shenanigans that brought about the misunderstanding of a kidnapping case. I apologize for the inconvenience caused.”

Benedict smiled at the three police officers. After that, he observed their expressions closely and awaited their reply.

“Oh, so it was your child’s shenanigans from the very beginning. In that case, I truly have to laud his intelligence and courage.” The police officer in the lead had no other recourse but to offer some compliments in hopes that the situation could be salvaged upon seeing that there was no hope for collaboration this time.

“No, no, he’s nothing special.” While Benedict knew that Larry was indeed extraordinarily smart, he also knew that those words were mere flattery.

Nevertheless, he still looked at the three of them with a bright smile as he then said, “Well then, I’ve still got some business to attend to, so…”

The message behind his words was clear as day – he wasn’t interested in a collaboration and was currently swamped, so they should excuse themselves.

After all, he couldn’t be too blunt because they were all in the corporate world. Otherwise, he would be criticized by others.

“Oh, sure. Do get on with your work, Mr. Morrison. We’ll be leaving first. Please excuse us.” The police officers knew that he had no desire to work with them, so they decided not to tarry and overstay their welcome.

“Goodbye. Please see yourselves out.” After casting a final glance at them, Benedict walked over to his table and took something before taking the exclusive elevator down.

He didn’t forget that he had promised to help Vivian move house today, so he drove back home after settling the issue.

“Ms. Morrison, what are you planning to do now that you’ve gotten back with Mr. Norton?”

“Ms. Morrison, what’s your relationship with Mr. Norton at the moment?”

“Ms. Morrison, is the child standing between the two of you your child with Mr. Norton?”

A barrage of questions were directed at Vivian.

A few moments ago, just when Vivian was about to put the luggage into the car at the door, she was greeted by the sight of a group of reports charging over and surrounding the three of them.

As Finnick was wearing a stand-offish expression, the reporters dared not ask him anything. Instead, they turned their attention to Vivian beside him, who seemed much more approachable.
