Never Late, Never Away Chapter 254
Suddenly, Sarah dashed over to her, looking ecstatic. “Vivian, your husband is too cool! He’s awesome!”
Finnick?
Vivian wondered what Finnick did which had Sarah so bowled over.
Sarah was still hyped as she exclaimed, “Come look at this interview clip of Finnick. It’s all over the internet!” She went on to flash Vivian a big thumbs up.
Pulling out her cellphone, Vivian realized that she had eleven missed calls; three from Fabian and eight from Finnick.
She did not need to hear from Finnick to know why he was anxious to reach her. Vivian felt very touched. Still, she did not know how to face him as she felt guilty for putting him through so much trouble.
The video featured an interview that was specifically filmed to address the rumors that revolved around Vivian. The scene was quite rowdy and chaotic.
Vivian saw microphones pressed up against Finnick while Noah desperately tried to hold the reporters back and maintain order. The members of the press were in hot pursuit of Finnick’s response to her news.
Finnick was in the eye of the storm as he sat as still as a statue in his wheelchair. Though he was silent, he projected a powerful presence as he looked unwaveringly into the camera.
One of the reporters was finally able to break through the perimeters of the human barricade and get close enough to direct a question his way. “Mr. Norton, tell us your thoughts!”
Finnick turned slightly and fixated his gaze on that reporter.
The jerky camera work captured his piercing gaze.
Vivian could tell that Finnick was fuming with rage.
Although he did not raise his voice and his expression did not change, that look in his eyes was sufficient to shush the riotous crowd.
Amidst the stillness of silence, Finnick started to speak.
“I know Vivian William better than anyone else.”
His words were simple but weighty. That concise statement had those present holding their breath.
Even Vivian and the others, who were watching the interview on the screen, felt the gravity of his words.
He kept the faith and stood with Vivian even if the entire world turned its back on her.
