Never Late, Never Away Chapter 567
Buzz… Buzz… Buzz…
Silent ensued for a while before the phone started to vibrate again.
Are you done? Vivian grabbed her phone and roared, “Didn’t I tell you I don’t have time for this? Can’t you understand human language? I said no, and no means no!”
“What’s wrong? Why are you so angry? I haven’t even said anything.” A familiar woman’s voice sounded from the phone, and this shocked Vivian.
Never did she think the one that called wasn’t Hunter but her best friend Peggy instead.
“I’m sorry, Peggy. I’m really sorry.” Vivian apologized hurriedly and explained, “I didn’t know it was you. I thought it was… I’m sorry.”
“Alright. I know you, so don’t worry.” Peggy chuckled and teased, “Who is the idiot that made you so angry?”
Vivian grumbled, “An annoying person. Let’s not talk about him. Is there something you need from me?”
Peggy explained, “Do you remember the journalist club we joined during college? The members are organizing a gathering. Do you have time?”
“Ah. I see, but I…” Vivian was conflicted.
When she was in college, she got along well with the club members initially. However, everyone started talking behind her back when Ashley framed her for working at a nightclub. The matter got worse when they boycotted her, and she quitted the club as she couldn’t endure the judgmental looks from the club members.
It was until now she still remembered the scoffs and mockery she suffered from her fellow schoolmates. The pain was carved into her heart.
With those painful memories in her mind, Vivian smiled bitterly. “Peggy, you know I don’t get along with them. I don’t feel like meeting them, so I’ll pass.”
