Therefore, she decided to try her luck by asking Jenny, the long-serving journalist. “I…” Vivian steeled
herself and replied, “I am just asking out of curiosity.”
“If you’re asking just to satisfy your curiosity, I advise that you better not pursue this matter any further.”
Jenny put on a stern face as she continued, “It is not our ce to inquire into the Norton family’s affair.”
With that, she resumed her work at hand.
Jenny’s unduly reticent attitude only further aroused Vivian’s curiosity. I believe Jenny must know
something…
“Jenny.” She pulled a chair to sit next to her. “I couldn’t tell you the reason, but I really need to know
about the incident.”
At that moment, Vivian and Jenny were the only ones left in the office as the other workers had gone
for lunch.
Jenny lifted her head and cast a meaningful nce at Vivian before she spoke, “Vivian, I can tell you
about it, but you need to be frank with me. Are you asking this because of your husband?”
Vivian was taken aback by her words. “Jenny, you actually know about…”
“Yes, I knew about it quite some time ago.” Jenny let out a sigh. “Your husband is Finnick Norton, am I
right? He is the second son of the Norton family, and the victim of the kidnap incident.”
Vivian’s eyes widened. She had always tried to stay low-key, but Jenny still managed to discover her
husband’s identity and his rtionship with the Norton family.
Although Vivian remained silent, her reaction made Jenny certain of her conjecture. “Are you surprised
that I actually know about your husband’s background?” Jenny gave a resigned shrug and then
exined, “Actually, I already knew that Finnickes from the Norton family when I first interviewed
him. I became suspicious that he was your husband when I saw your wedding ring, so that’s why I
tested you just now.”
Being deeply impressed by Jenny’s intuition and attention to detail, Vivian couldn’t help but look at her
with admiration. It would take at least ten years of working experience in the press to acquire those
qualities.
Since Jenny already had it all figured out, there was no need for Vivian to hide from her. After all, there
was nothing for her to hide in the first ce. It was just that she disliked being the center of gossips,
that was why she never mentioned her marriage with Finnick.
“Yes, Jenny, you’ve guessed it right.” She lowered her voice and asked, “So now, can you tell me what
happened ten years ago?”
Vivian thought Jenny would turn her down again, but to her surprise, she seemed to have gotten
through to the other woman when Jenny looked deeply into her eyes and said, “Vivian, I always know

that you’re a nicedy. Even though rumors are circting in the magazinepany saying that you
are a gold-digger, I will only believe in my own judgment.”
Vivian’s eyes reddened. “Thank you, Jenny.” Since two years ago, she had been facing all sorts of
misunderstandings and derision from her colleagues. Soon, she no longer bothered to dispel those
rumors because no one would believe in her. She was touched when Jenny said she trusted her.
“I was shocked when I first heard that you were going to marry Finnick.” Jenny gave her a sympathetic
look. “I admit that he is an excellent man, but from what he did two years ago, I don’t think he is
husband material.”
Vivian’s expression changed. “Jenny, what do you know?”
Jenny let out a sigh. “You sure are lucky because you’ve asked the right person. I was still working in
the press when that incident happened, and I was responsible for reporting the case. At that time, I had
dug deep into the case, but I was threatened by the Norton family to not leak any information about it. I
knew how powerful the Norton family is, that’s why I stayed tight-lipped all these years.”
Vivian finally understood why Jenny knew that Finnick came from the Norton family. If Jenny had
investigated the kidnap case, she would definitely know about Finnick’s name and how he looked.
However, Vivian felt unsettled by Jenny’s tone. “So what happened at that time?”
