Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1111
Fabian slowly placed a hand under Hannah's neck while the other wrapped around her waist,
picking her up from the couch.
Huh. Let's just bring her to the bed for now.
After Fabian tugged Hannah in bed, he came out and went to the washroom. He repeatedly
splashed the cold water onto his face in an attempt to wake himself up and ease the drowsiness he
was feeling.
Then, he slowly took out his phone from his pocket and called his assistant, âHelp me find out what
Hannah did today.â
Subsequently, Fabian took off all his clothes and turned on the shower to let the water beat on him,
wetting his hair before running across his face, forcing his eyes shut.
It did not take long for Fabian to wash up and get out with a loose bathrobe on him. He dragged his
feet towards the couch and plopped himself on it.
He rummaged through the drawer of the coffee table and took out a cigarette, placing it in his
mouth before lighting it. It had been a while since he last smoke.
Fabian took a deep breath before letting out a puff of smoke as his brows unknitted
All of a sudden, his phone rang. It was his assistant reporting back to him about Hannah. âMr.
Norton, it looks like Ms. Young was with... Xavier Jackson the whole day.â
The assistantâs voice was trembling as he knew that Xavier and Fabian were not on friendly terms.
He was afraid that the report would spoil Fabianâs mood, and he would be caught up in Fabianâ's
wrath.
What? She was with Xavier? Now that's too much! Why was she crying then! Does she think I'd go
soft if she cried?
âGive me the specifics!â It was just as the assistant expected. Fabian went haywire after hearing the
information, his voice cold as ice.
The assistant proceeded to inform Fabian about everything he found out for fear of displeasing his
boss.
"Alright, I got it.â Fabian ended the call as soon as he heard everything and tossed the phone aside
before he leaned back onto the couch.
At the moment, deep crevices formed on his forehead, but his lips curled while he stared at the
ceiling with narrowed eyes.
So, she found out about Vivian and me? And sheâs jealous?
Fabian was actually a smart man, able to piece a general idea together with mere crumbs of
information the assistant gave him.
Suddenly, he shot up from the couch and headed straight into his study. In there, he took out a
photo from an old book. It was the one that Hannah saw.
The photo was secretly taken by Fabian when he was still with Vivian. He kept it because he felt
guilty for breaking up with her and wanted to preserve some of his most precious memories in the
form of a photograph.
Oh. Fabian snickered, laughing at himself as he casually pulled open a drawer on the bookshelf and
took out a small box from it. He tapped on it with his slender finger to open it up.
The inside was filled almost to the brim with ash. It represented the memories that Fabian and
Vivian made back then
Click! Out of nowhere, Fabian took out a lighter and set the photo on fire. He had a blank gaze as
he watched the fire burn.
âIt has been a long time. It really is time to let go and let the past fade into oblivion,â Fabian spoke
to himself, dropping the ball of fire into the small box.
The picture of Vivian's silhouette fell into the box, melding in with the ashes. With the addition of
the photo's remnant, the box seemed to be finally full, as though it had been waiting for it all along.
âLooks like you should have been with them from the start.â Fabian grinned.
He then went on to shut the box and flung it out the window.
