Never Late, Never Away Chapter 535

“But I don't want to, Mommy,” Larry insisted. “I really want to go there to play. I've never been on acruise ship. Please say yes!”

It was rare for Larry to pester her, so for a brief moment, Vivian did not know how to reject him.After a long while of hesitation, Vivian finally relented

“All right, but you have to promise me that you'll be a good boy. You can't run everywhere like youdid last time.” I'll show him what a cruise ship is, then.

“Yay! Thank you, Mommy!” With a cheer, Larry excitedly pressed a kiss on his mother's cheek.When Hunter heard Vivian giving in, he smiled before looking at Larry through the rearview mirror.“Larry's a smart boy. Don't worry. I'll definitely take good care of you and your mommy. All youneed to do is to enjoy yourselves.”

Unexpectedly, Larry, who had been on his side a moment ago, turned his head to look out of thewindow without replying to him.

Since the prominent figures of the society will be joining, Daddy must be there too. If that's thecase, Mommy and Daddy will be able to meet each other. Maybe they'll be on good terms soon!With that thought in mind, Larry's eyes turned crescent from his smile. I'm so smart!

Although Hunter was perplexed by Larry's sudden change of attitude, he did not think much aboutit; he assumed that other children often did the same.

What he was more concerned about was how he should grasp the opportunity to win Vivian overonce and for all.

Vivian felt that the two of them would be awkward if they were left alone despite her not havingfeelings for Hunter. Thus, she told Benedict about it, hoping that he would join her at the event.“I'm sorry, Vivian. I have something vital to work on during this period, so I don't think I'll be able tojoin you. Can you go alone with Larry?”

The vital work he had was related to Morrison Group's future developments, so Benedict dared notbe careless in it.

“It's all right. Your work's important, and I can handle it myself,” Vivian hastily responded. “Go ahead.I'll stop disrupting you.” With that said, she turned and was about to leave Benedict's study.

“Wait.” Benedict stopped her.

“What's wrong, Ben? Is there something else?”

Benedict had a frown on his face as he wondered if he should tell her about it. However, when herecalled it concerned Vivian's happiness, he uttered, “Vivian, I've heard of that man Hunter Yates.He's a well-known playboy. You have to be careful when you're dating him. I don't wish to you seehurt by him.”

Vivian never thought even Benedict had heard about it. At that moment, an awkward look flittedpast her face. However, she soon recovered from it.

“Ben, there's nothing between Hunter and me; we're not even friends. Don't believe the officerumors. I've decided to never fall for another man again. I don't mind living out the rest of my lifewith Larry,” Vivian murmured indifferently.

Benedict was glad to hear Vivian denying having a relationship with Hunter. After all, he was moreworried than anyone else about his sister's happiness. However, her last sentence made the worryreenter his heart.

“Vivian, not all men are like Finnick. You'll replace better men than him. Try to open up. After all...”Before he could finish his words, Vivian interrupted him.

“Ben, let's not talk about it anymore. Go ahead with your work. I'll take a look at whether littlepumpkin's asleep or not. Don't work too late into the night. Good night.”

Once she said those words, she quietly walked out and closed the door behind her.

At that, Benedict could only sigh. She responded the same way every time he raised his topic. Doesshe really plan to never marry again?

On the day of the trip, Hunter arrived early to pick Vivian and Larry up. It took them nearly twohours before they arrived at their destination.

Although Vivian knew cruise ships were a luxurious mode of transport, the lavish sight she saw stillstunned her.
