Never Late, Never Away Chapter 157
Colors drained from Vivian’s face at once.
She knew that she was drugged last night, and she had been wondering who was the culprit ever since. Judging from the smirk on Ashley’s face, it did not take her long to associate the incident with her.
Despite feeling infuriated, she did not treat Ashley too harshly for the sake of their kinship. At last, she only confronted her in an icy voice, “Ashley Miller, you’d better come clean about the thing you did last night.”
Ashley’s eyes were laden with hatred when she stared at Vivian.
As she had always been enjoying a sense of superiority over Vivian, there was no way she could be overwhelmed by her.
“What did I do last night? I’m speaking nothing but the truth, and you should know what you did last night. I can’t believe you still have the audacity to criticize me after having a fling with some random guy as a married woman!” Ashley raised her voice, feeling agitated. She was making full use of the chance to vent her frustration after being ignored by Fabian that morning.
To her utter surprise, a sonorous and powerful voice came at that juncture.
“Ashley, do you have any idea who you’re speaking with?”
She spun around to find an extremely good-looking man making his way over to her in a wheelchair.
His presence immediately drew the attention of everyone else present at the hotel lobby.
Ashley was stunned to see him there.
Finnick? Why’s he here?
Instead of being terrorized by his presence, a smile broke out on her face as she greeted the handsome man. “Mr. Norton, you’re here just at the right time. You know what? Last night, Vivian and…”
Finnick interrupted her right away by shooting her a penetrating and icy stare while saying, “Ashley, do you really want to know what your sister and I did last night?”
Upon hearing that, Ashley was stupefied as though she had just been struck by lightning.
W-Was Finnick the one who was with Vivian at the hotel last night?
Does it mean my plan actually failed?
Ashley felt a pressing urge to let out a shriek in exasperation. However, she had no choice but to watch her behavior in Finnick’s presence. Clenching her fists tightly, she bit her lip and stormed away without giving Vivian another glance.
“Ashley, hold on!”
She paused in her tracks when she heard Vivian’s voice.
With her arms crossed in front of her chest, she turned around and stared at Vivian. She kept her chin up to show that she was not intimidated by her.
