    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 423


    “What’s wrong? Do you have something to tell me?” Finnickmented, noticing Vivian’s burning


    gaze.


    After some thought, Vivian decided not to reveal her guess. Instead, she would tell him once she


    confirmed the truth behind it and had evidence for it.


    “Nope. I was thinking about how lucky I was for Benedict to save me in time. Otherwise, I would not be


    here in one piece,” she made up an excuse.


    “Lucky?” This time, Finnick was confused by her choice of words.


    “Of course. Wasn’t it fortunate?” Vivian did not understand Finnick’s confusion. “Luckily, Benedict


    showed up in time to save me. Otherwise…”


    She paused. Thinking about the incident in the warehouse, she burst into tears again. She lowered her


    head, and her tears fell on the nket. Gritting her teeth, she took a deep breath before she muttered,


    “Otherwise, those people would have seeded.”


    It made Finnick more baffled. Did she mean that those men did not touch her?


    That’s odd. Evelyn told me that she saw Vivian being raped by them. The doctor also did a test and


    confirmed that she was sexually abused. What is going on? Does she not remember anything?


    Although many questions filled Finnick’s head, he did not want to question her any further. Looking at


    the crying figure before him, he did not want to upset her.


    He tried to push away his thoughts. Using his thumb to wipe away the tears on Vivian’s face, he said,


    “Don’t cry anymore. Let’s not think about what happened. You should take a good rest instead.”


    Vivian silently nodded, closing her eyes and holding back her tears.


    Cautiously, Finnick lowered Vivian down to a lying position and dried her tears with a tissue. “Get some


    sleep. When you wake up, everything would be okay.”


    After crying so much, Vivian was exhausted. It did not take long before she drifted off to sleep while


    clinging onto Finnick’s hand.


    Finnick slowly pried his numb hands away from hers and rubbed them together when she finally slept.


    Looking at the sleeping figure, he supported himself with the bed rails and nted a kiss on her cheek.


    Then, he whispered, “No matter what happened, I love you.”


    He lifted his head to stare at her angelic face for a while longer before straightening her nket and


    turning to leave the ward.


    The moment he stepped out, he saw Noah standing outside.


    Noah had been there for a long time. However, when he saw Finnick in Vivian’s ward, he did not want


    to disturb them. Thus, he politely waited outside. When he saw his bossing out, he rushed over.


    “Mr. Norton, the board of directors…”


    “Before that, let’s find the doctor first,” Finnick cut Noah off before thetter could finish. With Noah


    struggling to keep up behind him, Finnick briskly walked towards the doctors’ office.


    There, Finnick looked for the doctor who came by earlier. After briefly exining the situation, he


    anxiously asked, “Doctor, what happened to my wife? Why can’t she seem to recall what happened?”


    Initially, the doctor was slightly flustered to see Finnick approaching him, thinking that the man saw


    through his lie. However, after hearing his question, the doctor felt relieved. Finnick still believed his

    words.


    “Maybe the patient is unable to ept the fact and chose to forget that part of her memory. The


    upsetting experience could be another reason. Perhaps, she is too embarrassed to tell you about it, so


    she pretended that she has forgotten,” the doctor tried to make up excuses for the situation.


    Nheless, his words did not sound ridiculous. Generally, these were possible oues for women


    who met such situations. Only this time, Vivian was not one of those women who were sexually


    abused, so of course, it did not apply to her. Regardless, he could not tell Finnick that.


    “In any case, it is best not to ask the patient about what happened. For a female to go through such


    humiliation must be very pressurising on her. Whether she forgot about it or pretended to do so, it is a


    coping mechanism for her. If you force her to recall what happened, it may backfire and even cause her


    to break down,” he added, afraid that Finnick would see through him.
