A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 224

They are such a bunch of hypocrites! Back in the day, they have been looking down upon me! I can't believe they have the audacity to bring up such an absurd request in front of me!

Vivian sneered inwardly as she found them hilarious. She put on a calm front and replied, "I'm so sorry, but I have never poked my nose into Finnick's business, and I have no intention to do so. Hence, I'm afraid I can't be of much help."

The faces of those from the Miller family darkened upon hearing Vivian's reply.

Ashley was the first to bellow at her sister. "Vivian, how dare you forsake the wellbeing of your family members? Have you gotten full of yourself after becoming acquainted with an influential figure?"

Emma played along with her daughter and pretended to reprimand her. "Ashley! You're not allowed to talk to your sister in such a manner! I'm sure she's not such a cold-hearted person! I have faith in her, and I'm certain that she will do us the favor to repay the kindness we've shown her back in the day. Am I right, Vivian?"

Who are you to call me by my name? Stop making it sounds like we're a family! Hearing them calling her name, Vivian almost puked from the sheer absurdity of the situation at hand. They're nothing but a bunch of hypocrites!

Harvey stepped forward and begged, "Vivian, this is a matter of life and death! The entire Miller family is relying on you! Since Finnick is head over heels in love with you, I'm sure he will listen to you. Can you please tell him to let the Miller family off the hook for once? Please!"

Vivian raised her volume in return. "Dad, I told you before, I have never once poked my nose into his business. Even if I bring it up in front of him, I can't be sure if he's going to listen to me or not!"

"Vivian, I'm your biological father! Did you really think your mother would've been capable of bringing you up herself if it weren't for the financial aids that I have provided you and your mother back in the day? If it weren't for me, you would have long passed on due to starvation!" Harvey yelled hysterically as he could no longer keep his composure.

The initially irritated Vivian felt dejected all of a sudden because his father finally revealed his true colors in front of her.

Meanwhile, Harvey and Emma started bringing up everything that had occurred in the past.

They told Vivian she should appreciate their so-called kindness and get Finnick to let the Miller family off the hook for once.

Emma said, "When you were still young, I gave you a designer dress as a present! Ashley had merely put it on for a month before it was handed over to you! Do you recall the time others bought us a few Alaskan king crabs? We didn't hesitate to share it with you! Have you forgotten the wonderful time we used to spend together as a family? How could you forsake us?"

A designer dress? Are you talking about the dress that Ashley got bored of? The only reason why you handed it over to me was that your daughter deemed it ugly! As for the crabs, you only allowed me to have my share because it was no longer fresh! Do you really consider that as sharing? I had an upset tummy for a few days because of you!
