Never Late, Never Away Chapter 914
Terrified that Finnick would leave her, she pleaded with him in a meek tone.
She wasn’t someone who couldn’t survive without a man, but her love for Finnick was too deep.
“Okay. I won’t, don’t worry.”
Finnick patted her back in consolation.
Nevertheless, he felt bitterness spreading across his heart. Am I doing the right thing?
Forget it. I’ll just take things one step at a time.
Vivian remained in his embrace for a long time before leaving his office. She had already been absent from work for the morning.
If she didn’t return to work, her senior editor might take action against her.
“Alright. Go!” Finnick kissed her forehead before allowing her to leave.
The minute Vivian stepped out of Finnick’s office, his assistant immediately glanced at her curiously.
Feeling chagrined, Vivian chided herself for acting on impulse earlier. Yet, it was too late for her to regret her actions.
She strode away confidently. No one will dare to gossip if I’m confident enough, she told herself.
After leaving the building, she drove back to her company.
The next day, another bombshell dropped.
Vivian’s hands were trembling as she read the papers. She wanted to rush to Finnick’s office to demand an explanation, but she was afraid the same thing would happen all over again.
“Finnick Norton!” she growled angrily.
At once, Finnick sneezed in his office.
Vivian wanted to demand a statement from Finnick now, but she changed her mind swiftly. I’ll wait for him to come and give me an explanation.
Hence, she threw herself into work furiously until it was time to get off work. She was packing her stuff up when she saw Finnick’s text: Are you getting off work? Do you want me to pick you up?
Vivian: Sure.
