"What have you prepared?" Vivian asked. How could she not worry even if Finnick told her not to? Finnick was the man she loved the most. She could not just watch Finnick being set up like that and do nothing.
Finnick purposely kept her in suspense. He asked with a cunning expression, "Ashley has been mean to you. Do you want to take revenge against her?"
Vivian was stunned. She didn't understand what Finnick was trying to say. Besides, it was her first time seeing Finnick like that. His eyes twinkled with mischief like a boy who was going to play some tricks. He looked totally different from his usual self.
She was confused. "Didn't we already agree to let
Ashley go?"
"That was because Ashley is pregnant. After all, the child is a Norton. Even if he wasn't, I would never do anything to a kid. However, what if she isn't even pregnant?"
What? Ashley is not pregnant! How is that possible? So, Fabian...
Vivian looked at Finnick in complete shock. She couldn't believe what he just said.
"Are you saying that Ashley is pretending to be pregnant?" Finally, Vivian came to a sudden realization and said, "It can't be. Have you checked? Are you sure?"
Vivian hadn't recovered from her shock. She was dumbfounded.
"I've gotten Noah to look into this" Finnick stared at her in amusement. "Absolutely true."
Vivian knew that Noah was reliable. Since Finnick said so, it must be true.
She never expected that Ashley had the guts to fake her pregnancy.
Finnick couldn't help but chuckled lightly to see her shocked expression.
She looked indescribably adorable.
He tapped her nose affectionately and said in a low voice, "Come on. Let's get ready for a good show."
