Never Late, Never Away Chapter 851
"Yeah, it's nothing much. I just wanted you to check on the company's stock situation and find out
what happened. Also, we could look into our stockholders for more information.â
Vivian poured her thoughts onto him.
We have to investigate and find out the truth as quickly as we can. Only then can Finnick return to
us sooner.
âThat will take quite a while to execute,â Noah uttered in concern.
He wasn't entirely sure if Vivian's extensive plan was doable. Now that Vivian was bedridden, Noah
was unable to leave her side. He couldn't risk leaving Vivian in someone else's care.
At the same time, he felt uneasy about letting someone else investigate the stock situation as the
whole thing crucially affected Finnick's outcome in trial.
The pros and cons of these two options crushed down onto a troubled Noah.
Vivian immediately knew what was on Noah's mind. She readied her phone to call Ms. Booker and
said to him, âDon't worry. I'll phone Ms. Booker and have her come over to take care of me.â
It wasn't long before Ms. Booker rushed over.
Noah stayed for a bit to examine the housemaid's capabilities until he felt more assured that Vivian
was in good hands
"Alright. Ill head off to deal with the matter now, Mrs. Norton. Please contact me if anything
happens.â Noah looked at her for one final assurance before leaving
Just as he walked out the door, Ivana approached him and asked, âWhere are you going, Sir?â
Noah helplessly massaged his brows as he eyed the oddly adorable nurse before him.
âI'm off to run some errands. Leave me alone, won't you?â Noah spoke straightforwardly. He
brimmed with anxiety, knowing that Finnick was still detained at the police station; he didnât want to
waste his breath talking to idlers.
"Will you be back?â
"Yeah."
Noah wanted to reject Ivanaâs pursuit then and there. However, he couldn't quite bring himself to
refuse those bright and optimistically round eyes of hers.
âAlright then, you go ahead.â Reassured that he would be back, Ivana nudged him away and hoped
that he would return sooner if he left for his errands now.
Despite being helpless against her, Noah was too pressed for time to continue their chat. So he left
straight for the door.
âIvana, could you go replace Vivian's saline?â Another nurse suggested playfully.
The nurse originally intended to replace Vivian's saline fluids but changed her mind after seeing
Ivana return to the nursesâ station.
Ivana rolled her eyes at the nurse's teasing. She grabbed a new saline IV bag and jovially skipped
away to Vivian's ward.
Knock. knock. knock. Ivana knocked thrice before entering.
âHello, I'm here to replace your saline fluids.â
Ivana swiftly carried out her task and hung up a brand new saline IV bag. Once she was done, her
eyes swept across the room. I guess that man wasnât lying about being busy.
He must really be swamped with work to have a housemaid watch over Ms. Norton whilst he's away
on errands.
âMrs. Norton? I hope it's alright for me to ask... what's the name of that man you were with?â
Although Ivana knew that her behavior was inappropriate, she couldn't suppress the eagerness that
tightened in her chest.
Vivian eyed the young nurse and instantly saw through the nurse's thoughts.
However, she didn't have the heart to say more than needed, so she succinctly stated Noah's name.
âI see. Thank you,â Ivana replied. Now that she got what she came for, she was content and ready to
leave. âIf you'll excuse me.â
She practically leaped over the threshold with glee, then closed the door to Vivian's room.
Meanwhile, Noah managed to track down some of the stockholders who stirred up the most
trouble. He posed as an unrelated outsider and asked them why they were so upset.
At first, he assumed that these stockholders were making trouble out of nothing, but it turns out
they had their reasons.
"Do you even have to ask? Us stockholders were all scammed by Finnor Group. Initially, we saw that
their stock prices kept soaring; but once we invested everything we had, the prices suddenly
plummeted, and we lost all our assets overnight.â
The man explained whilst on the brink of tears as Noah patted his back comfortingly. After this,
Noah interrogated a couple of others and found that this manâs situation was better than most.
Other stockholders had resorted to loaning their neighbor's money, thinking that it was a golden
opportunity to maximize income from their stock investments.
Unfortunately, none of them expected Finnor Group to lower their stock prices so suddenly. Not
everyone reacted well to this; some couldn't take the hit and ended up losing their minds.
