"What's so good about her? She's not worthy of you, for goodness’ sake!” Ashley yelled as sheinched towards the railing. “Alright then, I'll drag her down to hell with me!”
“Stop!” Finnick yelled in horror as Vivian's fingers began to slip off the metal ring she was holdingon to. Why didn’t you settle this once and for all, Fabian? Why must you leave her behind like this?He turned to Ashley and said, “Take me hostage and let her go.”
Everyone turned to stare at him in shock.
“Mr. Norton! You can't do that!” Noah yelled as his heart raced.
He was worried for Vivian, but the last thing he wanted was for something bad to happen to Finnicktoo. What if something happened to him? He can't just sacrifice himself for Mrs. Norton's sake!Finnick glanced at Noah as a signal to stop talking.
"What? You're willing to take Vivian's place?” Ashley said in mild confusion. She stopped trying topush Vivian over the railing to stare at Finnick.
“Yes, that's right. I'm the president of Finnor Group and the second son of the Norton family. I'mworth much more than Vivian. You can ask for anything from Finnor Group and the Norton family ifyou take me hostage. Trust me!” he pleaded. “Besides, didn't I say that everything that happened toyou had nothing to do with Vivian? Didn't you say that I was the one who ruined your life?”
As Finnick spoke, he slowly wheeled himself over to the two women. “You can ask for anything youwant once you take me hostage. You can even throw me off this building if you want to takerevenge. See my legs? I won't be able to fight back even if I wanted to.”
Ashley stood rooted to the ground in shock and failed to notice how Finnick was just a couple ofsteps away from them.
As for Vivian, she was equally bewildered by Finnick's words.
The last thing she had expected to see was Finnick panicking for her sake and putting her life abovehis own.
What did I ever do to deserve him?
"Do you love her so much that you're willing to sacrifice yourself for her?” Ashley muttered beforeshe threw her head back and let out a laugh. “Why do all of you love her? She's just a merebastard!”
She reached out and pinched Vivian's neck between her fingers. “Are you trying to save her? Do youreally think I'll let you succeed? She's dying with me today, and you'll live in regret for the rest ofyour sorry lives!”
Ashley looked up to meet Fabian’s eyes, her gaze ablaze with hatred. “All I ever wanted was tobecome your wife, but what about you? All you think about is Vivian William! I'm going to kill herright now!”
With that, she grabbed Vivian's arm and pulled her over the edge of the railing.
“No!” Fabian yelled as the police rushed forward to grab them before they could fall.
Unbeknownst to Ashley, Finnick had gotten within grabbing distance when she was too busy beingshell-shocked, and he stood up from his wheelchair the moment they toppled backward to pullVivian back to safety.
By the time Vivian managed to stand up straight, Ashley was already gone from their view.
Finally relieved of Ashley's iron grip, Vivian began to cough violently in a desperate attempt tobreathe.
