Never Late, Never Away Chapter 455

"Vivian! You must bear in mind that Evelyn had saved you that time together with Benedict. Insteadof being grateful to her for saving you, you are criticizing her and doubting her intention now. Howcan you be so ungrateful?” There was profound sternness in Finnick's tone as his face turned grim.

I truly understand how Vivian is feeling now. But she shouldn't have wronged anyone. What moreEvelyn was the one who rescued her!

Vivian raised her voice and started to tremble in anxiety. “She's lying! She's just putting on a show infront of you! Do you know that she was the one who sent those people to abduct me? It was alsoher idea to get the four beggars to assault me. She even threatened me that she would share thoseunsightly pictures of me being assaulted on social media. She's really a vicious woman!”

“Enough of all these!” Finnick roared at her in exasperation. “Vivian William, Evelyn was not the onlyperson who told me that you were assaulted by the men. The doctor had performed a check-up foryou that time and the result revealed that as well. How can you blame her for everything?”

“Evelyn must have bribed the doctor in order to convince you that I have been raped.” Vivian wasbecoming more agitated. “Finnick, please trust me! I'm telling the truth. I was abducted because ofEvelyn. She's a deceitful and ruthless woman. Don't be blinded by her pretentious look!”

Finnick's heart sank and his eyes were filled with great disappointment. He was speechless andcould not believe that the unreasonable woman right in front of him was his beloved wife. I reallycan't believe she’s my dear Vivian who is always gentle, demure and kind-heartened! It was as if shehad turned into a totally different person!

Considering Vivian the trauma she had gone through recently, Finnick tried to suppress the growingimpatience and frustration within himself. He kept telling himself that Vivian was behaving weirdlybecause of the great blow on her. What she needed the most at the moment was his consolation.Thus, he had to control his temper by all means and should not raise his voice at her or it mighttrigger a breakdown.

He took a deep breath and lowered his voice. “Vivian, Evelyn and I are just friends now. Everythingbetween us was over. Don't worry, I'll never leave you because of her. Can you try to cheer up andstop thinking negatively of her?”

“So you feel that I'm thinking negatively of her?” Vivian gaped in disappointment. It was really outof her expectation that Finnick not only did not trust her words, but also suspected that she wasframing Evelyn.

“It's impossible that Evelyn was the culprit behind everything.” Finnick started to get impatientagain. “I've known her since she was a child. I know her well and I trust her. She can't be the type ofperson who has a crooked mind.”

“Since you really trust her, does it mean to say that I'm the one lying to you? You're really protectiveof her! You'd rather trust her, and refuse to believe any of my words!" Vivian wailed in grief.

“It doesn’t mean that I don't believe your words. I just feel that you're blinded by jealousy at themoment and tend to lose control. Vivian, can you try to be rational?” Finnick could not help blurtingout the words in frustration. In his eyes, Vivian was being unusually adamant at the moment, and hewas having a hard time communicating with her.

Vivian stopped saying anything to defend herself. She just remained silent and gazed at Finnick withher sorrowful eyes which were welled up with tears. Tears trickled down her cheeks as her heart wasfilled with indecipherable complex emotions. Depression, despair, helplessness and anxiety werecrushing her like a series of never-ending waves, suffocating her.

I'm blinded by great jealousy? Vivian could not help snickering within herself. He is my husband, theperson whom I'm closest to in this world. So that's what he’s been thinking of me all this while?Vivian's heart felt cold in an instant. She finally turned and left Finnick's office in despair. Since he ison Evelyn's side and refuses to believe me, there is no point in me wasting any more time arguingwith him

Finnick's heart skip a beat when Vivian left his office. He was about to stop her from leaving but wasoverpowered by his pride. Standing as motionless as a statue, he gazed at Vivian till her figure wasout of his view.

He needed some time before the growing anger within himself had worn him down too. Moreover,Vivian's words had infuriated him. How can she accuse Evelyn without any concrete evidence? Whyis she so adamant and refuses to take my words?

Apart from the indescribable rage, Finnick was feeling depressed at the same time. Vivian claimsthat I don't trust her. But does she realize that she herself doesn't trust me as well? If she trusts me,she won't keep suspecting that there is something going on between me and Evelyn.

Vivian was wandering aimlessly on the street after she stepped out of Finnor Group. Now I know thetruth as to why Finnick doesn’t want me to keep this baby. He really thinks that I'm not pregnantwith his child!
