Never Late, Never Away Chapter 530

“Little pumpkin, I'm sorry. This is all my fault,” Vivian sobbed out as she held onto Larry. She thoughtshe had given Larry all her love, but she still could not compensate him for what he lacked inpaternal love.

“Little pumpkin, this is all my fault. I-1 didn't give you a complete family. Can you forgive me forthis?” Vivian wept.

"Okay. I won't ask you about it anymore. Don't cry, Mom.” Larry was a sensible boy, and he knewnot to mention Finnick anymore. Instead, he raised his small hands and begun wiping Vivian's tearsaway.

Larry's actions only made Vivian feel even more guilty. All she could do was hold him in her arms asshe continuously apologized to him.

Beside them, Benedict sighed. He then crouched down and hugged them, a form of silent solace.

It had been a few days after Larry had gone to look for Finnick, but Vivian was still stuck in the sameintense emotions of that moment.

She kept asking herself—Is it right to hide Finnick’s matter from Larry? She could see that Larry hadbeen feeling down after that day; he was no longer as happy and bubbly as he usually was

Since Larry already knows that Finnick’s his father, should I talk to him about it? After all, I don’thave the right to take away his opportunity to meet with his father.

However, Vivian was terrified. With Finnick’s ruthlessness and power, Vivian was afraid that he wouldtake Larry away from her.

No! I can't lose my little pumpkin! Ill never let Evelyn be Larry's stepmother! But... my little pumpkinneeds a father too.

Right as Vivian was stumped by the issue, she received a call from Evelyn.

“Hello, Vivian. I'd like to invite you to watch an opera today. Will you be ?”

Instinctively, Vivian opened her mouth to reject her. After all, she was not in the mood to watchoperas right now, not to mention with Evelyn. However, she was afraid that Evelyn was up tosomething.

“All right. I'm today.”

Hearing Vivian's apathetic voice, Evelyn tightened her grip on her phone as she scrunched her faceup in fury. Yet, her voice was still sweet as she said, “All right. We'll meet at the café from five yearsago, then. Will you be okay with two in the afternoon?”

“Yes.” With that said, Vivian ended the call as a sneer grew on her face.

The café from five years ago. What a place Evelyn has chosen. I wonder what she’s trying to do thistime. Regardless, I won't let her get her way!

Raising her arm to check the time, she realized it was only eleven in the morning. Vivian's originalplan was to stay at home until one, but she abruptly made up her mind and left the house with herbag.

Instead of heading toward the café where she would be meeting Evelyn later, she headed to a well-known beauty salon in the city.

In the past, she would have never dressed herself up before meeting Evelyn, but now... Vivian wouldnot continue to let Evelyn gain the upper hand.

In frustration, Evelyn grabbed her phone to look at the time. When the screen dimmed, her scowlreflected on it. It's been ten minutes since the time we agreed to meet up, but I don't even see asign of Vivian around. Is she messing with me?

At the thought of that, hatred filled Evelyn's eyes. So she's bossy now that she’s the daughter of theMorrison family? Ha! I'm going to make sure that her reputation is ruined beyond salvation thistime! Those who go against me will be doomed to a terrible ending.

The fury was burning hot in her chest, and Evelyn had nowhere to vent it but at the server. “Mister,the coffee’s gone cold. Don't you know to change it into something hot?”

"Of course. Please give me a moment.” The server then hastily took away the cup of coffee in frontof the angry Evelyn. He was disappointed, as he did not expect a pretty customer like her wouldhave such a nasty temper.

Soon, the server returned with a fresh cup of coffee, but Evelyn did not even give him her thanks.Instead, she waved at him dismissively, as if she was trying to get rid of an annoying housefly.
