Never Late, Never Away Chapter 849
I have to find evidence. I have to get him out of there! It’s the only way that our family can be whole again.
Vivian frantically skittered into Finnick’s study. She couldn’t care less that she tripped and stumbled into the pillar and the furniture; not even the lengthy cut on her calf could stop her from finding the truth.
She needed to save Finnick and fast because the company urgently needed his help.
Vivian phoned Noah, who was dealing with matters at the company, and urged for his immediate assistance. “Noah, hurry over. Finnick’s been taken by the police.”
With that, Noah hopped into his car and drove in haste.
Once he got there, he took one look at the empty living room and knew that Vivian must have been in the study. Mr. Norton’s arrested… Mrs. Norton must be digging for evidence in his study.
At this thought, Noah sprinted into the study and saw smudges of red all over the floors and on Vivian.
Vivian was sprawled on the ground with purplish bruises and different-sized cuts sliced into her leg, some still oozing blood.
Noah stiffened for a split second before hurrying to help Vivian up onto her feet. While doing this, he pulled out his phone and called the hospital.
Soon after, an ambulance arrived to collect Vivian, who lay resting on the couch.
Noah frantically followed along.
He felt like the weight of the world was on his shoulders, and that weight would only grow if anything bad happened to Vivian while Finnick was arrested.
In the ambulance, Vivian was so consumed by grief that she kept calling out to Finnick. Unfortunately, she knew that her cries were in vain because there was no way that Finnick could be there.
Noah felt a bitter ache in his chest. It’s bad enough that Mr. Norton got framed and arrested. Now, to make things worse, Mrs. Norton is in a difficult situation.
Noah knew it was a hard pill to swallow, but he needed to be strong, especially since Finnick couldn’t be by Mrs. Norton’s side.
Therefore, he had to take care of Mrs. Norton. He would keep her safe and unharmed until Mr. Norton returned.
Noah lowered his head to look at Vivian, whose eyebrows were tightly knit whilst she mumbled something.
But Noah knew that she was most definitely saying Mr. Norton’s name.
Seeing her in so much grief, Noah couldn’t help but ache for her too. He asked the nurse, “Could you help massage Mrs. Norton’s brows to soothe her?”
