Never Late, Never Away Chapter 393
At that moment, Vivian looked dishevelled. She had hickeys all over her body, and the swelling on her cheek caused by Rachel’s slap still had not subsided. Her eyes were tightly shut, and she was trembling as tears spilled out uncontrollably.
Clenching his fists, Finnick cursed himself for being a jerk. Why didn’t I notice these wounds on her body? He got up from the bed and instantly went looking for the first-aid kit.
When Vivian felt that Finnick had finally released her, she gradually opened her eyes. Her vision was blurry as tears clouded over, and she wondered if he had satisfied his brutal lust. Then, her lips curled into a self-deprecating smile. She tried to sit herself up, but her body was in pain.
After picking up the clothes that Finnick tossed on the floor, Vivian walked toward the bathroom like a lost soul.
Right now, the only thing that warmed her cold heart was the heat that came from the shower. As the shower wet her wounds and washed away her tears, she collapsed on the ground and wailed. What happened to us? We used to be so in love.
At the same time, Finnick had come back with the first-aid kit in his hand. When he noticed that Vivian was nowhere to be found, he panicked and thought that she had run away. Just when he was about to look for her, he heard noises coming from the bathroom.
He walked up to the door and heard Vivian sobbing in the shower.
Initially, Finnick wanted to head in, but now, he was hesitating whether he should do so. It hurt him so badly upon hearing Vivian’s cries.
Finnick knew his presence would irritate her further, so he decided to retreat. After placing the first-aid kit on the bedside table, he walked out and went into one of the guestrooms.
Soon, Vivian got out of the bathroom. She heaved a sigh of relief after noticing Finnick was gone. After all, she did not know how to face Finnick right then, and she did not want to see him either.
