Never Late, Never Away (Vivian and Finnick) novel Chapter 1729

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1729

In all honesty, Joan didn’t blame Larry as she understood him. However, she couldn’t speak on behalf of Finnick and Vivian since they had poured their blood, sweat, and tears into the company. Now that it had ended up in such a sorry state, even she herself wasn’t certain whether Finnick would condemn Larry.

“You’re here, Ms. Joan?” The housemaid wiped her hands on her apron. Then, she spotted Leslie in Joan’s arms. “Oh, you even brought Leslie along!”

Joan flashed her a polite smile. “Is Vivian and Finnick home?”

Smiling at her in return, the housemaid then hollered in the direction of the house, “Mr. Norton and Mrs. Norton, Ms. Joan and Leslie are here!”

The moment Vivian saw Joan and Leslie, she hurried forward and carried him from Joan’s arms. It had been a while since she last saw the baby. She hadn’t visited them out of worry that she would be a bother. She initially thought that they would bring him back for a visit in a few days, but it turned out that they actually dragged their feet until now.

Having not laid eyes on him for a long time, Vivian truly missed her grandchild greatly. She cradled Leslie in the crook of her arms and rocked him gently, but it seemed that he had had enough sleep. Surprisingly, he didn’t throw a tantrum but pointed at them while giggling with his petite mouth open.

By then, Finnick had also walked over, and he looked as though he wanted to snatch the child from Vivian. At that moment, the two elderly people whose hair was threaded with gray resembled two immature children vying for their beloved toy.

At the sight of them both showering their affection on Leslie, Joan breathed a sigh of relief. Phew! With Leslie diverting their attention, they most likely won’t pressure Larry no matter how angry they are!

Before she could even say anything, Finnick had already seen through her and smilingly remarked, “Well? Are you here to entrust Leslie’s care to us?”
