Never Late, Never Away Chapter 475
Since it came down to this, Finnick had to harden himself. “But the doctor had it checked, the results have indeed confirmed that…”
“I don’t care what the doctor said.” She was emotional when she cut him off. “I want to keep this child. We’ll divorce if we cannot agree on this.”
Through the row they had in the morning, attempting to explain things to him would be an act of futility.
In his heart, he had already concluded that the child was not theirs. She had to dig in as she was determined to protect her child no matter what.
“Listen to me, Vivian…” As he made another attempt to persuade her, he was interrupted once more.
“That’s enough. I’ve made it clear that if you are not with me on this issue, I’ll be raising this child on my own.”
There was nothing Finnick could say in response to the resolve he saw in her eyes.
“Alright. You can keep this baby.” It took some time before he relented.
“Really?” Vivian grabbed hold of his arm with both hands, still in relative disbelief.
She did not expect that he would be willing to spare the child despite him believing that it belonged to someone else, as she was mentally prepared to divorce from him if it came down to it.
Finnick nodded, solemnly and silently. He spoke no more. That answer took every ounce of energy out of him. He had no wish to repeat that for the rest of his life.
