Before Finnick could finish, Benedict arrived at the scene in a rushed manner.
"He's here." Finnick turned around and told Vivian.
"How's Evelyn doing?" Benedict instantly asked Finnick.
"She's still in the operating ward. Don't worry, she should be fine." Finnick gave Benedict a reassuring look.
When Benedict heard that from Finnick, he breathed a long sigh of relief. Evelyn is my only family now, please don't let anything bad happen to her.
"Finnick, thank you for sending Evelyn to the hospital and I'm sorry for misunderstanding you previously." Benjamin stared at Finnick gratefully.
When he heard Evelyn speak about the fire incident, Benedict realized that he had always been wrong about Finnick. Finnick did not abandon her at all.
Benedict was ashamed when he thought of his mistreatment towards Finnick, and even more so when he picked on and humiliated him over the years.
"It's alright, you have your reasons for thinking that way." A rare smile emerged on Finnick's lips as he replied. Perhaps he was relieved once the misunderstanding had been cleared up.
Having no more words to say, Benedict laid his hand firmly on Finnick's shoulder. Then, he lifted his head and looked anxiously at the entrance of the operating room.
Vivian noticed that the prevailing hostile aura that was present when the two were together had disappeared, and it was replaced by a sense of brotherhood instead.
After waiting for a while, the door to the operating room finally opened. While seeing Evelyn being pushed out of the room, Benedict rushed towards the doctor and began asking questions.
"Don't worry, the patient has no major problems. She just needs to wake up and everything will be fine."
After hearing the doctor's words, the three of them instantly felt relieved. Having thanked the doctor, Vivian and the others went to Evelyn's ward.
Evelyn was still unconscious at that moment.
"There are still some matters at the company I need to attend to, I'll make a move first." After seeing that Evelyn was fine and Benedict was there to look after her as well, Finnick announced that he was heading back to the company.
