Never Late, Never Away Chapter 113
Is there something wrong with my numbers? But our company did exceptionally well in this quarter!
As the director continued to reveal the details of the financial report, he could not help but start wiping droplets of sweat off his face. “Mr. Norton, is there a problem with the report?”
He did not get a response.
Finnick just nodded randomly and did not even pay attention to his report. All this while, his attention was on the screen of his phone.
Or more precisely, he was staring at Vivian’s text message on his phone: Hi, I’ll be staying with my mom in my house since she has just been discharged from the hospital.
The text message was so formally written that a vortex of anger swirled inside him.
Her house?
Is she trying to draw a line between us?
This woman is absolutely capable of provoking me!
Finnick’s silent treatment made everyone in the meeting room nervous. Even the most experienced members of senior management began to tremble because they were afraid that he was not pleased with the results.
Minutes ticked by, and everyone was already sweating buckets. All of a sudden, Finnick raised his head.
Just as the company executives thought he was about to comment on the company’s performance, he said, “Let’s call it a day. We’ll continue tomorrow.”
Finnick did not notice how shocked everyone was, and left the meeting room in his wheelchair.
Noah, who was just as dumbfounded, picked up his pace and ran after Finnick.
“Is everything alright, Mr. Norton?” Noah finally caught up with him. “Did an earthquake happen in J Nation and affect our nuclear plant? Or did a tornado hit our power plant in A Nation?”
Noah believed something disastrous must have happened; otherwise, Finnick would not have ended the meeting so abruptly.
Finnick stopped his wheelchair, tilted his head, and gave Noah a cold stare. “Go and find out where Vivian lives. I mean, where her mother lives.”
“Ms. William’s mother?” Noah was confused for a moment.
