Chapter 718


    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 718


    Seeing the tortured expression on the face of the woman he loved, Finnick’s heart hurt so much that he


    could barely breathe. He swept her up in his arms and ran towards the front door.


    As he ran, he said, “Vivian, it’s Finnick. Can you hear me? I’m Finnick. Try to endure it for a while


    longer. I’ll bring you to the doctor immediately.”


    Behind him, Hunter yelled urgently, “I already told the maid to fetch the doctor, and they’re about to


    However, Finnick continued to make his way out of the front door. Vivian was in so much pain that he


    couldn’t just sit around and wait for the doctor to arrive anymore. He had to get her to the nearest


    hospital as soon as possible.


    He bundled Vivian into the car and jumped into the driver’s seat. With a loud screech of tires, the car


    made an emergency turn and flew in the direction of the hospital.


    However, Vivian had no idea where she was. All she knew was that her body was about to explode


    because of the heat. She waved her arms about, brushing against something cooling all of a sudden.


    She made a wild grab at it, as though it was a lifebuoy and she was drowning. Unable to stop herself,


    she brought her entire body against that patch of cold.


    Finnick turned to see Vivian half-hanging off his body. Her blouse was half-open, revealing some of her


    skin. Finnick felt a loud buzz in his ears as though something was about to explode any minute.


    Immediately, the images of their past intimate experiences together shed through his mind.


    He pped himself on the face aggressively, trying to make himself calm down. He couldn’t afford to


    think this sort of rubbish right now—he had promised to protect her for the rest of her life, and he


    couldn’t do something so dastardly to her while she was essentially passed out.


    With one hand on the steering wheel, Finnick forced Vivian against his chest with the other to prevent


    her from thrashing about anymore. He wasn’t a priest—he would do his best, but the allure of the


    woman he loved could be too much at times.


    Hearing the pitiful moans from Vivian again, Finnick felt his chest tighten. He floored the elerator,


    praying that they would get to the hospital soon.


    As he gazed at Vivian on the hospital bed, Finnick felt his heart ache. Turning to Hunter, who arrived


    just after they did, he asked in an icy tone, “You said Evelyn drugged her, didn’t you? What happened?”


    Looking at Finnick worriedly, Hunter exined everything to him. “Today, Evelyn sent me a text


    message with an address. She told me that she was having dinner with Vivian and asked me to go and


    join them and drive Vivian home afterward.”


    “Afraid that Evelyn might do something to her, I went and joined them for dinner. When I arrived,


    however, they had already finished eating, so I drove Vivian home instead.”


    “While we were on our way back, Vivianined that she felt a little ufortable. I thought she


    was having a fever at first, but when I got home, her behavior started to get a little strange. That’s when


    I realized she might have been drugged.”


    Hearing that, Finnick looked suspiciously at Hunter. “Why did Evelyn get you to send Vivian home after


    drugging her? What’s your rtionship with Vivian?”


    “Don’t look at me with that expression,” Hunter said, matching Finnick’s gaze defiantly. “I can’t exin


    everything clearly to you. It’s enough that Vivian knows I don’t harbor any ill intentions towards her.”


    Finnick’s eyes darkened a little. What did he mean by that? Why couldn’t Hunter exin his


    rtionship with Vivian clearly?


    He turned to look at Vivian again and didn’t say anything else. He would question her again when she


    woke up.


    When she finally did, Vivian found herself to be in a white, sterile room. Feeling rather dazed, she


    mumbled, “Where… Where the hell am I?”

    “Vivian, you’re awake!”


    “Vivian, you’ve finally woken up!”


    Finnick and Hunter, who had remained by her bedside all this while, quickly hovered over her


    anxiously. “How do you feel now? Do you still feel ufortable anywhere?”


    Seeing the two of them in front of her, memories of that evening flooded into her mind. After having


    dinner at Rachel’s house, Hunter had arrived to drive her home. What happened after that? I can’t


    seem to recall anything. And why am I at the hospital?
