Never Late, Never Away Chapter 709
"Vivian, you're here!â Evelyn exclaimed, pretending to be excited when she saw Vivian by the
doorway. âI thought you won't be coming today.â
Wheeling herself to Vivian's side, Evelyn held onto her arm and muttered sweetly, âVivian, I was
wrong for what happened yesterday. Let me apologize to you. I'm sorry, you're right. You and
Finnick are divorced. I would be making things difficult for you by asking you to talk to him about
my matters. I won't voice unreasonable requests like this to you anymore. Just think of me for being
insensible yesterday. Please forgive me.â
Not in the mood to entertain Evelyn's acts, Vivian pried her arm off and walked toward Rachel
instead; it was as if Vivian had not heard Evelyn's words at all. âI'm going to deal with the
procedures for your discharge first. Pack up. When I come back, I'll take them up the car.â
When Evelyn noticed Vivian ignoring her, she clenched her fist as anger briefly crossed her face.
However, in the next second, she looked like the epitome of misery again.
Walking toward Vivian, Evelyn carefully asked, âVivian, I really know I'm in the wrong now. Please
forgive me. I'll do my best to fix what I've done wrong from now on. Please give me a chance to
change!â
Anger stirred in Vivian as she watched Evelyn feign distress. At that very moment, she only wanted
to yell at her to drop the act.
However, Rachel was around, and it felt inappropriate for her to do so. With how important Evelyn
was to her, if Vivian were to lose her temper with Evelyn, she was sure that Rachel would reprimand
her for it.
Hence, she took in two deep breaths, trying her best to suppress the rage in her. Then, she
continued ignoring Evelyn. She said to Rachel, âPack up first. I'll deal with the paperwork now.â
"Vivian..." Evelyn ground her teeth at how Vivian completely ignored her, but on the surface, she
maintained a sad look as she tried to stop Vivian
Spotting Evelyn about to come close to her, Vivian walked around her and continued to the
doorways.
"Vivian William, stop right there!â Rachel fumed when she saw her daughter getting ignored. âEvelyn
already knows that sheâs wrong. Why canât you give her a chance? She's so sincere in apologizing to
you, so what's the matter with your attitude?â
Hearing Rachel's reprimanding voice, Vivian's eyes reddened as she halted in her tracks. However,
she did not turn around as she said in a calm voice, âWhat would you like me to do?"
âEvelyn didn't mean to do it back then, and nothing happened to you,â Rachel continued, having
not noticed Vivian's upset. âNot only has she donated her bone marrow to save my life, but she
even took care of me until now. I can see that she really knows that sheâs done wrong. Even if she
did put you in a tight spot by asking you to talk to Finnick, she apologized to you today. How can
you pretend as if you didn't see her in the room?â
Vivian's tears fell as sorrow overtook her heart. Nothing happened to me back then? How can she
say nothing happened to me back then? Evelyn made me escape the country in a haste, and she
destroyed my marriage, forcing my son to grow up without his father's companion. Do these mean
nothing to Rachel, the mother I love? Moreover, Evelyn's her daughter. Isn't it her duty to donate
her bone marrow to her mother and take care of her? I took care of her, too, for so many days. Does
it mean nothing to her too? Does only Evelyn's care mean something to her?
Reaching up to wipe away her tears, Vivian forced her voice to sound as level as possible. âI know.
I'm the one who did things wrong.â
With that said, Vivian left the ward without sparing them another glance. It was as if someone
gripped tightly onto her heart, threatening to crush it. This will be the last time. Once Rachel is out
of the hospital, I'd have returned the favor of her raising me. This will be it for our relationship. I'll
never see her again.
