Never Late, Never Away Chapter 872

Staring at the news, Finnick felt a blow to his heart.

He tried to calm down by telling himself that he still had a backup plan. If this plan works, then there is no need to be worried about Neville Group.

With a mixed feeling of excitement and anxiousness, Finnick turned on his other computer. But a few seconds after he glanced at the screen, he suddenly dropped the documents in his hand. Vivian, who was sitting on the sofa, was stunned by Finnick's reaction. Right away, she knew that his plan did not work out.

"It's okay. We will come up with another solution," Vivian comforted Finnick and tried to calm herself down at the same time.

"What the h*ll would you know? Do you know how much work I have poured out for this?" Unable to control his rage, Finnick yelled at Vivian, but he regretted it the very next second.

That was because he had never yelled at Vivian before.

Thus, Vivian froze in shock for a few moment, and so did Finnick.

Vivian's heart twitched in pain as she could not believe that the man she loved would treat her in such a manner.

"Vivian, I am really sorry... I was just too upset about it..." Finnick held Vivian's hand gently, hoping that she would forgive him.

Finnick had almost lost everything, and he could not bear to lose Vivian too. Right at that moment, he realized how precious Vivian was to him, making him feel even more guilty about his earlier attitude.

"It's fine..." Vivian understood that Finnick was just too emotional. Hence, she did not blame him at all, as she would have lost control too at times like these. She only hoped that she could be there for him through these periods of trial.

"Vivian, Neville Group is going to acquire Finnor Group. What should I do?" It took tremendous courage for Finnick to admit it. Realizing that he could not do anything to stop this, he felt as though a thousand needles were stabbing through his heart.

Finnick had dedicated his entire life to Finnor Group. In fact, he had never imagined a life without it.

Without this career, it would be hard for him to sustain his family, let alone giving Vivian the life that she wanted.

"Finnick, it's fine. Don't worry." Patting gently on Finnick's shoulder, Vivian continued to comfort him. "If Neville Group is to acquire Finnor Group, surely we'll get paid in return as well. We can start another company with that money. I am sure with your talent, you can build a better one in no time."

The response that she had anticipated from Finnick never came. What she heard was, unexpectedly, Finnick's light and steady breathing.

She looked down at the man, only to discover that he had fallen asleep.

Over the past two days, he had been hustling nonstop in order to save his company.

Seeing that he was finally able to get some sleep after such an exhausting workload, Vivian was relieved.

Afraid to wake him up, Vivian tried to be as quiet as she could. And carefully, she reached for Finnick's phone and made a call.

"Hello, Mr. Norton wanted me to let all of you know that you can clock out for today."

Vivian did not forget about all the employees who were still working at that late hour.

She thought that everyone had their own families to go back to. And since it had long past their working hours, they should be allowed to leave the office.

"Alright. Thank you." The assistant on the phone responded professionally.

Initially, the assistant intended to ask about the outcome, but she hesitated as she was unsure who was on the phone.

Eventually, she figured it was better to ask Finnick in person when he arrived at the office the next morning.

All the employees were pleased after receiving that particular notification. Soon after that, they started to chit-chat in excitement.

But after they realized Finnick was still in the office, they instinctively controlled their excitement and kept their volume down.

Due to the recent crisis, the atmosphere at the company had gradually become tensed. Some employees hardly even opened their mouths at all during office hours as they kept their heads down. They were trying their best not to offend Finnick, especially in this critical period, in case he got mad and had them fired.

It was most likely that the company would not be able to survive. But if it did, those groups of people would definitely be blacklisted. Because all they ever cared about were their own benefits when the company needed them the most.

Seeing that almost all the employees had left the building, Vivian switched into a more comfortable position on her chair. She tried to relax, but her mind was still full of worries.

Before she realized it, she was already dozing off to sleep. Just like Finnick, she had been bearing too many burdens recently.

And just like that, both of them slept soundly in the office until the next morning.
