Never Late, Never Away Chapter 557

Vivian figured she just needed to be careful.

And yet, as soon as she went in, the event happening before Vivian confused her. It made her doubt herself, thinking that she was hallucinating when she saw Evelyn happily playing with the children there.

What’s she plotting this time?

It felt bizarre to Vivian to see Evelyn’s smile amongst the smiles of innocent kids.

What was happening at the moment contrasted Evelyn’s usual style very heavily, as Vivian would not be able to think that a devilish person like Evelyn, who could even order men to defile others, would have the decency to play with the little kids in an orphanage.

“Vivian! You’re here!” Evelyn noticed Vivian and waved at her excitedly, gesturing for her to come closer.

Vivian was on high alert even after she approached Evelyn. She was still trying to figure out what Evelyn was up to.

“You came at the best time. I was having trouble trying to think of what to do here. Can you help me?” Evelyn tugged at Vivian’s hand with a smile, pointing towards the edge of the roof.

“I brought a wind chime for the children, and they wanted to hang it over there. That way, they would hear it as soon as they came in. You know I’m in no shape to do this, so can you help me hang it up there?”

Vivian raised her head and saw that the roof was not that high up and that the ladder on the side looked firm and solid enough. Even though she had no idea what Evelyn was scheming, Vivian really did not want to disappoint the kids with their excited gaze.

“Alright,” she said as she picked up the wind chime from the table and climbed up the ladder. She carefully hung the wind chime onto a beam under the roof while Evelyn looked at her.

At that moment, Evelyn’s smile was gone, replaced with a cold and calculative expression.

“Alright!” Vivian said as she bolted down the ladder to look at the wind chime.

The blues and whites on it were complemented by the sky and looked exquisite. The sight of it seemed to have a soothing effect on people.
