Finnick's brow knitted as he turned his laptop towards Vivian. “This restaurant is called Flavors ofItaly. I expected the entire set of dishes to be Italian cuisine
Vivian was instantly embarrassed
He was indeed the son of a wealthy family. Who would take restaurant names and dishes seriouslynowadays? She thought to herself.
“Most Italian restaurants that offer takeout would serve pizza like this,” Vivian said as she placed thepizza on the table, “Have you ever had pizza?”
"Yes, I've tried charcoal grilled pizza when I traveled to Europe.” Finnick lowered his gaze and added,“But I haven't tried pizzas served in a takeaway paper box like this.”
"Well, there's always the first time to anything right.” Vivian grinned while she tore a piece of pizzaand handed it to Finnick.
Finnick stretched out his hand to take the pizza. He took a bite and frowned slightly. “It doesn’ttaste like the ones I've tried in the past.”
"Haha, it's not that bad to eat something like this occasionally,” Vivian replied in amusement.
She tore a piece of pizza as she talked and began eating.
In comparison to the exquisite dishes Molly prepared every day, she preferred simple food thatsuited her taste.
She recalled her university days when she would buy junk food like this at the snack street behind ZCollege with Fabian. Although those food were unhealthy, they enjoyed them.
Finnick was dazed as he watched the woman before him devouring pizza with a big grin on her face.He suddenly realized, perhaps he didn't know Vivian that well.
Noah arrived while the couple was eating pizza.
As he entered the room, his eyes widened in surprise when his gaze fell onto the pizza placed onthe coffee table.
As his personal assistant, Noah knew how particular Finnick was with his diet. Yet, he was eatingpizza?
He tried to mask his shocked expression and handed the envelope to Finnick. “Mr. Norton, these arethe photos that I've found,” he reported respectfully.
Vivian had pizza in her mouth and was thinking if she should leave the room. However, Finnick didnot seem to mind her presence as he opened the envelope right away and took out the photos.Finnick frowned when he looked at the photos. “They are so blur.”
Indeed, the photo was simply taken by a tourist. The picture had willows tree by the lake, and a girlin a red dress stood in the corner. Unfortunately, her face was muddled.
"Excuse me, Mr. Norton. The picture was taken by someone who was at the location of the incidentcoincidently. But the time and the girl's outfit matched your description. Hence, she should the girlyou're looking for.”
Finnick picked up the photo as he drifted into his thoughts. Vivian looked at the photo out ofcuriosity.
Even though the girl's appearance was blurry, she could tell that the girl was approximately fifteenyears old. The clothes she wore were the clearest in the picture. She wore a red tutu dress that had aunique design.
Vivian furrowed her eyebrow and blurted, “This skirt...”
Finnick raised his eyebrows, “You recognized this skirt?”
“It does look familiar,” Vivian bit her lip, thinking. “Oh, this dress! A heroine wore this dress in acartoon I watched back in junior high school. It was a Disney limited edition. At that time, every girldreamed of having one.”
Noah suddenly thought of something and said, “Oh yes, speaking of which, the girl that you'relooking for is of similar age as you, Mrs. Norton?”
Finnick's kidnap incident happened ten years ago. Coincidently, Vivian was indeed fifteen years oldten years ago.
“Do you have this dress too?” Finnick rose his eyebrows.
