Never Late, Never Away Chapter 790
“Vivian, just you wait. I’ll come back for you. We’re not done yet, and we’ll see who will laugh till the end,” Evelyn murmured to herself between bites.
It sounded like she was a sworn enemy with Vivian.
After finished eating, Evelyn was occupied with another scheme against Vivian in her mind as she wheeled herself into a deserted and narrow alley unwittingly.
Just as she was about to make a turn and come out of the alley, she heard the voices of a few men.
Their voices were filled with obscenity and lechery, which disgusted Evelyn. Those voices sounded far worse compared to that of Finnick.
That was what Evelyn was thinking.
But almost immediately, Evelyn became aware of the circumstances she was facing.
Right in that instant, she was all alone in a deserted and narrow alley with several strong men standing in her way. They had come after her money or her body.
Either way, Evelyn would have no escape.
The money she brought with her was to be used on her plane ticket, so she couldn’t let them rob her. Meanwhile, Finnick was the only person she would ever allow to lay his hands on her body. How can I let these filthy men touch me?
Those thoughts sent a shiver down Evelyn’s spine. At that juncture, she was just like a helpless princess waiting for her prince charming to rescue her.
The only prince charming who appeared in her mind, however, was Finnick. Therefore, her wishful thinking would never be granted.
The only thing that might actually eventuate was the deep fear within her of the consequence she would most probably face.
The three burly men approached Evelyn, and as they did, they were rubbing their hands as if they were ready for something great.
The fat on their faces was squashed into a lump, looking like an old sow had stood on their face. That was how hideous these men looked.
Nonetheless, Evelyn was in no mood to joke at the unsightly impression these men gave her. A sense of horror crept over her slowly.
“No, please don’t.” Evelyn knew that they were after her body in that instant, and she started wheeling herself in reverse.
Perhaps if she was farther away from them, she would feel safer.
