A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 261

But Finnick was not about to let Emma take the bullet for Ashley, and he was quickly losing his patience. It was evident from his expression that he did not want to deal with the likes of Emma anymore.

When Emma saw that her pleas were falling on deaf ears, she emboldened herself and raised an accusing finger toward Vivian.

Emma screeched, "Vivian William, you slut! Had I known things would turn out this way, I would have gotten ten men to have their way with you! This is all your fault, yet you still have the cheek to stand there and watch us get humiliated! You shameless woman, bringing harm upon your own sister! May you die a million deaths! You..."

At that point, Finnick was past his tolerance threshold. Before Emma was done cussing, Noah broke away from Finnick's side and pinned her onto the ground until she could cuss no more.

Vivian felt her heart freeze over.

As if it was not enough that they treated her unkindly on a daily basis, they even went as far as to taint her chastity, rob her of her happiness, and condemn her to the depths of infernal damnation.

What have I done to deserve a family like this?

As Vivian glared at Emma, she said in a quivering voice. "Do you two really hate me this much? What have I done to you that you have to treat me this way? No matter what, I am still part of the Miller family! You... Both of you..."

She choked up at this point.

Abruptly, Ashley let out a sinister laugh that sent chills down everyone's spines.

All her plans had failed. Not only was Vivian standing there in one piece, she had the adoration of Finnick and had also uncovered the truth behind the plot against her.

On the other hand, Ashley fell into a trap of her own making. Now she was akin to a sacrificial lamb, disgraced and left begging for mercy. She felt like she would be better off dead.

It was not clear when exactly Ashley got cut, but she bled profusely from a deep gash on her arm. Her sleeve was dyed crimson as she lay in a pool of her own blood.

Ashley knew that she could no longer keep things under wraps, so she hollered, "What did you do to deserve this? You stole Fabian! When I saw both of you being so intimate, I was jealous and wanted to break both of you up! Fabian is mine and only someone like me is fit for him! You are only a bastard! Who the hell do you think you are to steal
