A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel 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 to come 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 come out of this? Is he in the mood for a family reunion? Obviously not. He's calling me because he needs something.

"Maybe next time. I'm busy today," Vivian said.

"Just come 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. "Just come and see me."

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

Vivian's heart softened as she promised to visit him later. 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."
