Never Late, Never Away Chapter 917
Over the past few days, Vivian learned to embrace the truth, but she felt the need to verify it in person.
Although it was all over the newspaper, she refused to believe it. As a journalist, she knew some editors might misrepresent the facts to attract the public’s attention.
More often than not, they would edit the news in their favor. Thus, she decided to make a trip.
After she made her way into the company, she placed her ears on the door of Finnick’s office to eavesdrop on the conversation.
To her surprise, there wasn’t any ongoing conversation. She stepped forward because she thought something was wrong.
Unsure if she had applied too much force or the door wasn’t properly shut— she accidentally fell into his office.
“Argh…” Her mind was all over the place when she saw him.
She was in pain because of the accident that had occurred a few seconds ago.
On the other hand, Finnick wasn’t particularly surprised by her presence. He retrieved a first-aid kit from one of the shelves and started bandaging Vivian’s wound.
As blood gushed out of the wound on her leg, he knew it was crucial to get it bandaged as soon as possible to prevent a scar.
Finnick brought Vivian over to the couch and placed her leg on his lap, sanitizing her wound.
She tried to move away from him because of the racking sensation she felt, but he stopped her.
After he rendered her incapable of motion, he lowered his head and continued bandaging her wound. Tears streamed down her cheeks when she saw the man’s side profile.
Since he has chosen to turn his back against me and have an affair with another woman, why is he taking care of me in such a gentle manner?
Her emotions came flooding out when she thought about it.
As he saw the tears streaming down her leg, he noticed she had burst into tears.
He put the things aside and wiped her tears dry before stuffing his finger into his mouth.
His action had taken her by surprise because she couldn’t figure out the reason he wanted to taste her tears.
Why is he being so gentle?
