Chapter 223


    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 223


    It’s our first date. I should at least put on nice makeup, right? But given my makeup skills, am I shooting


    myself in the foot?


    Just as Vivian was in a quandary, she received a call from Harvey.


    Vivian couldn’t help frowning.


    But the caller was her father, after all, so she answered the call. “Vivian, I need you toe back to the


    Miller residence.” Harvey sounded anxious. “It’s urgent.”


    This is one of the few times that Dad has taken the initiative to ask me to go home. What good could it


    needs something.


    “Maybe next time. I’m busy today,” Vivian said.


    “Juste over, Vivian. The Miller residence is also your home,” Harvey said.


    “Dad, since when is the Miller residence my home?” Vivian asked, feeling disgusted by her father’s


    words. “Speak no more. I’m not going back. At least, not today.”


    “Vivian! I’m actually sick!” Harvey started coughing violently. “Juste and see me.”


    Dad’s sick? He has weak lungs. Did the seizure of hispany cause his health to deteriorate?


    Vivian’s heart softened as she promised to visit himter. Hanging up, she looked apologetically at


    Finnick. “I’m afraid I can’t go out with you today. My dad seems to be seriously ill, and he insisted that I


    go back to see him.”


    Finnick thought for a moment before saying, “I’ll go with you.”


    Is it okay for him toe with me at this time? What if they have found out that Finnick was the one


    behind all this? Will they take him alive?


    At Vivian’s hesitant look, Finnick said, “I must go with you. I’m worried about you.”


    “Okay.” Vivian could onlypromise.


    Thereafter, Finnick gave Noah a call and told him to drive them there.


    Arriving at the Miller residence, Vivian told Finnick and Noah to wait for her in the car. Finnick didn’t


    insist this time as he nodded and watched as Vivian got down from the car. “Mr. Norton,” Noah piped


    up after Vivian left. “Are we just going to let Mrs. Norton go in alone? What if it’s dangerous?”


    “I’m not worried about that at the moment. They don’t have the guts to touch her yet,” Finnick said.


    “Mr. Norton, do you really think this Harvey Miller is terribly sick?” Noah added. “I heard nothing about


    it. Is there another purpose that they called Mrs. Norton to the Miller residence?”


    Finnick snorted, “In short, just know that they are up to no good.” Vivian knew at once that she was


    deceived when she saw Harvey, Ashley and Emma sitting in the living room. She was just about to


    leave when Ashley squawked, “Vivian! Leaving so soon? We haven’t even spoken yet.”


    Vivian stopped in her tracks, reckoning that there was no escape today.


    “Dad, didn’t you say you were sick? Looks like you’re okay now, so I guess I’ll go then,” Vivian said.


    Emma gave Ashley a look before walking up to her gleefully. “Oh, Vivian. There’s no such thing as an


    overnight grudge in a family. Come sit. Have some tea and dessert.”

    What’s with Emma today? What’s with the kind gesture?


    Vivian was scared silly as Emma forced her to sit on the sofa. “I heard you got married to Finnick


    Norton,” Emma said. “This is indeed a godsent marriage. Bring him home for dinner someday.”


    They know that I’m married to Finnick? Ashley must have told them.


    Vivian remained silent upon grasping the situation and their intentions.


    Seeing that there was no reaction from Vivian, Harvey cut to the chase as he said, “Vivian, you have to


    help me this time. Ask Finnick to spare the Miller family. There’s no bad blood between us, right? So


    why take it so seriously?”
