    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 402


    “Mom, can you now tell me the truth, please?” Still in disbelief, Vivian was in tears as she begged her


    mom for an exnation.


    All her life, the notion that Harvey might not be her father had never crossed Vivian’s mind. Even


    though Harvey might not have been a good father, and she might even hate him for being a jerk


    sometimes, she had never entertained the idea of being better off without him in her life.


    She could notprehend the situation she wasnded in. If Harvey is not my father, then who is?


    “Rachel William, how long are you nning on keeping this from me?” Harvey was now screaming at


    Rachel for an answer.


    “I-I’m sorry, I…” Rachel only managed to utter a few words before finally ovee by the pressure and


    passed out on the spot.


    Vivian was shocked by her mother’s sudden ck-out and rushed to her side. “Mom, are you okay?


    Mom, wake up!”


    A nurse saw what happened and summoned a few other medical staff to rush Rachel into the


    emergency room.


    “Doctor, how’s my mom?” Seeing as Rachel was still unconscious, Vivian frantically asked the doctor.


    “Your mom’s health has always been a perilous juggling between medical treatments and therapies.


    She was actually getting better until recently when the emotional upheaval has worsened her condition


    again. It’s important that she refrain from having further mood swings,” the doctor reminded carefully.


    “I understand. Thanks, doctor. When will she wake up?” Vivian asked.


    “Don’t worry. She should awake in the next three to four hours.”


    “Okay. Thanks again,” Vivian said while sending off the doctor.


    As for Harvey, after learning that Rachel had kept such a big secret from him for so many years, he


    harbored no more hopes or feelings for her and left right away.


    “Are you sure you are okay by yourself? I can stay and keep youpany.” Considering Vivian also


    just went through a traumatic experience herself, Fabian was worried for her wellbeing.


    “I’m fine, really. My mind is in such a mess I feel like I need to be alone right now. Why don’t you go get


    some rest at home, and I’ll give you a call if somethinges up?”


    “Alright. But promise me you’ll give me a call if you need any help?” Since Vivian insisted she wanted


    to be alone, Fabian thought he should give her some space.


    “Hmm.” Vivian nodded while giving him a grateful smile.

    After sending Fabian away, Vivian sat down by Rachel’s bedside and stared out in a daze.


    Rachel finally came to at dusk.


    When she saw Vivian by her bedside, tears started trickling down her cheeks once more. “Vivian, I’m


    sorry. It’s my fault for hiding this from you for so many years. Please forgive me. I’m so sorry…”


    “Mom, then can you—” Vivian really wanted her burning questions answered, but she stopped short of


    With great restraint, she swallowed her question and handed the tissue to her mother. “Mom, it’s okay.


    It doesn’t matter who my father is, as long as I have you as my mother.”


    Vivian’s thoughtfulness only made Rachel’s heart grow heavier as tears welled up in her eyes again.


    “Vivian, I’m to me for what’s happening to you. I’m so sorry…”


    “It really is okay, Mom. Please, I’m okay.” Vivian could not stop herself from tearing up and before long,


    the pair locked in an embrace and cried their hearts out.


    After a long while, Vivian finally gathered herself as she wiped away the tears from the corner of her


    mother’s eyes. “It’s alright, Mom. You’ve got to stop crying now. Doctor said that you can’t afford to get


    too emotional.”
