A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 406

When Finnick saw the part of Vivian's exposed arm still wrapped in gauze, his face fell sullen. Vivian had pleaded on Emma's behalf. That was the reason Finnick allowed her to return from abroad in the first place. Unfortunately, Emma showed no sign of repentance at all!

Her brows were still frowning, even in sleep, as though she could not get any peace even when she was not awake. Finnick's heart ached for her as he stroked her cheek.

Right then, Vivian stirred from her sleep when she felt a chill on her face. She opened her eyes to see Finnick in front of her.

Having just woken up from a short nap, it took a while for Vivian to snap out of her daze. Then, she remembered that she was currently in the hospital.

"Why are you here?" Vivian said, a little surprised by Finnick's presence.

Finnick pointing at Rachel, the patient who was sleeping on the bed. He hooked an arm around Vivian's uninjured arm and accompanied her out of the ward.

"Vivian, why didn't you tell me over the phone that something like this had happened?” Finnick gently asked Vivian after they exited the ward.

Vivian deflected the question with one of her own. "Weren't you at the launch event? Why are you here?"

Somehow, Finnick could understand where she was coming from. The launch event was broadcasted live online, so she's probably watched it on her phone. Besides, she didn't tell me what happened this morning, so I think she's angry at me...

"Vivian, Evelyn and I attended the launch event together because that's part of our job. Don't overthink it, okay?” Finnick explained in a gentle tone, comforting her.

"I know," Vivian replied curtly. She was aware that she had no reason to be angry. Ultimately, she could not possibly ban Finnick from seeing that woman.

Finnick assumed Vivian had finally thought things through, so he changed the subject. "Your arm... does it still hurt?"

"It's getting better," Vivian said. She felt slightly better when she noticed the pressing concern on Finnick's face. Then, she gave him a detailed account of everything that happened that day.

Over at Norton Corporation, at Mark's office.

Sitting in front of the computer, Mark could only watch as the company's stocks continued to drop. Furious, he dropped the pen which he had been holding onto the ground.

Firmer Group had become increasingly popular recently, with its range of products getting wider and wider, so much so that it had managed to overlap with Norton Corporation in many business sectors, which indirectly caused Norton Corporation to lose profits.
