    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 406


    When Finnick saw the part of Vivian’s exposed arm still wrapped in gauze, his face fell sullen. Vivian


    had pleaded on Emma’s behalf. That was the reason Finnick allowed her to return from abroad in the


    first ce. Unfortunately, Emma showed no sign of repentance at all!


    Her brows were still frowning, even in sleep, as though she could not get any peace even when she


    was not awake. Finnick’s heart ached for her as he stroked her cheek.


    Right then, Vivian stirred from her sleep when she felt a chill on her face. She opened her eyes to see


    Finnick in front of her.

    Having just woken up from a short nap, it took a while for Vivian to snap out of her daze. Then, she


    remembered that she was currently in the hospital.


    “Why are you here?” Vivian said, a little surprised by Finnick’s presence.


    Finnick pointing at Rachel, the patient who was sleeping on the bed. He hooked an arm around


    Vivian’s uninjured arm and apanied her out of the ward.


    “Vivian, why didn’t you tell me over the phone that something like this had happened?” Finnick gently


    asked Vivian after they exited the ward.


    Vivian deflected the question with one of her own. “Weren’t you at theunch event? Why are you


    here?”


    Somehow, Finnick could understand where she wasing from. Theunch event was broadcasted


    live online, so she’s probably watched it on her phone. Besides, she didn’t tell me what happened this


    morning, so I think she’s angry at me…


    “Vivian, Evelyn and I attended theunch event together because that’s part of our job. Don’t overthink


    it, okay?” Finnick exined in a gentle tone,forting her.


    “I know,” Vivian replied curtly. She was aware that she had no reason to be angry. Ultimately, she could


    not possibly ban Finnick from seeing that woman.


    Finnick assumed Vivian had finally thought things through, so he changed the subject. “Your arm…


    does it still hurt?”


    “It’s getting better,” Vivian said. She felt slightly better when she noticed the pressing concern on


    Finnick’s face. Then, she gave him a detailed ount of everything that happened that day.


    Over at Norton Corporation, at Mark’s office.


    Sitting in front of theputer, Mark could only watch as thepany’s stocks continued to drop.


    Furious, he dropped the pen which he had been holding onto the ground.


    Finnor Group had be increasingly popr recently, with its range of products getting wider and


    wider, so much so that it had managed to ovep with Norton Corporation in many business sectors,


    which indirectly caused Norton Corporation to lose profits.


    Is Finnick deliberately challenging me now? Damn it. I shouldn’t have been so merciful to him in the


    past! Knock. Knock. Knock.


    Came a series of cautious knocks on the door.


    “What now!” he roared.


    His assistant did not dare to walk into his office upon hearing Mark’s angry tone and instead chose to


    stand by the doorway to convey a message. “Mr. Norton, you have a visitor.”


    “Not now! Tell them I’m busy!” Mark was not in the mood to see anyone at the moment, not even if the


    president of the country hade knocking.


    “Mr. Norton, there’s a beautifuldy who wants to have a word with you. She says her name is-”


    “I said not now! Do you hear me?” Mark rudely interrupted his assistant. Who cares how she looks like!


    Do I have to meet the woman just because she’s pretty? Does Harry want to lose his job?


    “I didn’t think you’re so busy, Mr. Norton.” It was a woman’s voice, taunting him from outside the door.


    “Are you sure you don’t even have time to see me?” As she said that, the woman strode into Mark’s


    office, ignoring Harry’s objection.


    Mark’s eyes widened when he realized who she was. He shot up from his desk. “How did youe


    back?”


    “Why, Mr. Norton. Am I not weed here?” Unlike Mark, who was obviously panicking, the woman


    who entered his office was calm and confident. She sat down on his sofa, making herselffortable.


    “What are you-” Mark stopped mid-sentence when he realized his assistant was still hanging around.


    He turned to give his order, “You can get back to work now.”


    The assistant, Harry, had been curious to know the beautiful visitor’s identity, particrly why Mark


    seemed so surprised when she saw her. She could be Mr. Norton’s mistress, he thought. But he had


    been working under Mark for too long not to know when he was not wanted and what he should not


    meddle in, especially when Mark was threatening to blow a fuse.


    Upon receiving the order, Harry blurted out, “Yes, sir!” Then, he swiftly left the scene.


    Mark waited until Harry was gone before he rushed to the door. He looked around, ensuring that there


    were no eavesdroppers before he quickly shut the door. And then, nervously, he approached the


    woman. “Evelyn, when did youe back?”
