Chapter 141


    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 141


    Finnick always had a suit on but what Vivian touched was smooth and felt loose. It was clear that


    Finnick was wearing his usual silk pajamas.


    Why didn’t he go home? Why is he here in his pajamas?


    The more Vivian thought about it, the more confused she got. She started feeling around Finnick’s


    body.


    What she felt stumped her. Huh. Even though I’ve seen his body with my own eyes, this feels really


    different from what I thought.


    She often heard that eight-packs felt like ice cubes but she always waved them off as exaggerations.

    That was, until now.


    Moreover, the lines and grooves of his V-cut is very apparent…


    Vivian was in over her head as her hands slipped further below and touched…


    At that moment, a grunt interrupted her followed by Finnick’s voice. “Vivian William. Are you tempting


    me?”


    Vivian came back to her senses. Realizing what she touched, she quickly retracted her hands.


    However, her hands were caught by Finnick and held in front of his chest.


    “Fin-Finnick.” Vivian’s mind was all over the ce, but she was able to confirm that Finnick was in his


    pajamas lying beside her. “Why are you here? Why didn’t you go home?”


    “To apany you.” Finnick lowered his voice.


    “Apany me?” Vivian was thoroughly in shock.


    In the dark, Finnick could see Vivian’s astonishment even with her blindfold on. He pursed his lips.


    Something in him melted. Initially, he had a lot of anger pent up from all the worrying. But at that


    instance, he felt at peace.


    Finnick could not help his hand from wrapping around her slim waist, pulling her into his embrace.


    He buried his face into Vivian’s silk-like hair and a faint fragrance wafted into his nose. Taking a deep


    breath, he spoke. “I’m sorry.”


    Vivian was already slow to react because of the blindfold. Hearing Finnick’s sudden apology made her


    even more so. “What are you sorry for?”


    “I overreacted today.” Finnick thought back to how he roared at Vivian and even smashed the ne.


    It was all actions he regretted.


    Since when did my control over my emotions got so bad?


    Finnick had thought that after the incident ten years ago, he would have the presence of mind to face


    anything. He never would have thought that Vivian woulde along and stir him up again.


    Vivian recalled what happened that morning and hershes fluttered under the blindfold.


    Finnick… So you really do regret breaking the ne?


    She did not know how to react to his words. In the end, she settled for a smile. “That’s right. You were


    too reckless to smash that precious ne of yours just like that.”


    Even in the dark, Finnick could see that Vivian’s smile was forced.


    He frowned as he pulled Vivian closer to him.


    “What I regretted was not about smashing the ne,” he said softly at her ear.


    Confused, Vivian rebutted, “Impossible. That ne was your ex-girlfriend’s…”


    She immediately regretted the words that left her mouth.


    Oh no. Why did I have to mention Evelyn?


    Regardless, Vivian did not know how she should approach talking about Finnick’s past rtionship. Not


    to mention, the girl had passed away, making the topic even harder to broach. But one thing that Vivian


    knew for sure was that what happened to Evelyn definitely left a scar in Finnick’s heart and she really


    did not want to pry.


    However, Finnick was only slightly startled. “You actually know quite a lot huh?”


    Vivian felt a little awkward since she could not determine how Finnick was feeling at the moment


    through his tone. Thus, she kept quiet.


    Compared to Vivian’s tensed-up body, Finnick was more rxed. He was enjoying the scent of Vivian


    in his arms as he yed around with her hair.
