Never Late, Never Away Chapter 265
Vivian kept picking up and putting down her phone many times, wondering if she should call
Finnick. She was rather worried about him. It's so late now, did he have his dinner on time? Did he
face any danger?
As Vivian was tired, she eventually fell asleep. It was already morning when she opened her eyes
again.
The first thing she did was checking her phone. To her disappointment, there was still no message
or news about Finnick.
Since Finnick wasn't at home that morning, Vivian went to the magazine company early. Besides,
she would have a lot of tasks to finish that day because she took a leave on the previous day.
Coincidentally, she met Fabian as soon as she arrived at the magazine company. He looked rather
tired when he stepped into the building.
When Fabian saw her, he asked, âAre you alright? Did you not sleep well last night?â He could
clearly see that she looked pale with dark circles under her eyes.
Vivian smiled and replied politely, âWell, I could ask the same about you.â
They fell silent for a few seconds before suddenly mentioning different names at the same time.
Both of them chuckled awkwardly.
âFinnick...â
âAshley...â
Seeing that Vivian seemed like she wanted to say something, Fabian said, âWhy donât you come to
my office for a while?â
She agreed and followed him to his office.
When they arrived at his office, he made her a cup of latte, which was her favorite.
He handed the cup of coffee over to her and said, âI remember that you like this type of coffee the
most.â
Vivian nodded and answered, âI'm surprised that you still remember about it.â
"Well, I have never forgotten about it.â
Vivian recalled that Fabian used to bring her to a café back then. Since coffee was rather expensive
for them as students, they only ordered a cup of coffee. Nevertheless, Fabian didn't take a sip at all
but only watched her finish the cup of coffee.
He used to say, âVivian, I will build a large café for you in the future and collect different types of
coffee around the world so that you'll be able to drink to your heart's content. Do you like my idea?â
Back then, she merely thought that the man was joking and wasn't aware that Fabian was actually
capable of doing it.
To stop herself from reminiscing the sorrowful past, Vivian immediately changed the subject and cut
straight to the point. âBy the way, how's Ashley? Where did they go? And where is Finnick?â
Fabian replied calmly, âWhy the rush? Enjoy the coffee first, and I'll explain it to you slowly. Besides,
since you have a series of questions, which one should I answer first?â
Vivian was actually not in the mood to enjoy the coffee. However, since Fabian offered it to her
sincerely, she decided to sit down and take a sip of it.
After a while, Fabian began to explain, âFinnick sent Emma overseas, probably to an underdeveloped
and shabby country. Well, this way, she'd be able to stay away from you and she won't be able to
hurt you ever again. I think Emma got what she deserves, and all she could now is to pray that she
wouldn't have a miserable life ahead! Rest assured that since Finnick sent her overseas, he definitely
won't let her live the rest of her life in peace.â
That being said, Vivian actually didnât care where Emma was and what she was doing. Instead, she
only wanted to know what happened to Finnick. She was anxious as to why he didn't come home
nor give her a phone call.
She continued to ask, âHow about Ashley? Is she alright? Is the child in her belly fine?â
He answered, âOnce she left the storage room, Finnick sent her to the hospital for a medical check-
up and treatment. She is fine now after taking care of her wounds. For now... Finnick is
accompanying her.â
As soon as Fabian finished, Vivian snapped her head up and thought she misheard him. Finnick is
taking care of Ashley? Doesn't he hate her and want to torture her?
Vivian paled and she could feel her mouth began to dry. She lowered her head and continued to
listen to him. Why would the overbearing Finnick take care of Ashley? This is not how he usually
behaves.
She couldn't help but feel slightly jealous.
On the other hand, Fabian was also clueless about Finnickâs action.
He added, âI don't know the reason behind the dramatic change. But Finnick is treating Ashley with
care and is rather meticulous about it."
How is it possible that Finnick is taking care of Ashley in the hospital? Vivian was completely
dumbfounded.
Irritation surged within her whenever she imagined how Finnick was staying by Ashley's side now.
Nonetheless, she had faith in Finnick that he wouldn't betray her. However, her heart still wrenched
when she thought of how Finnick was being overly nice to Ashley. She recalled that she had a
similar feeling when she was a kid when someone took her favorite doll away forcefully.
