A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 468

"I..." Vivian was stumped as she was unable to recover her composure. Collecting herself, Vivian smiled faintly at Benedict, "I'm here to see Evelyn. Is she at home now?"

Having heard her reason for being there, Benedict assumed that she wanted to see Evelyn over the kidnapping. He felt bad over the incident as the perpetrator was his own sister.

"Vivian, I'm really sorry for what happened the last time. Evelyn had gone overboard. Can you forgive her just this once? I promise you that I'll keep an eye on her and not let her harm you again."

Although Benedict had his doubts about Evelyn's identity, he had grown up together with her and didn't want to see her get into any trouble.

When Vivian saw how quickly Benedict apologized on Evelyn's behalf and the concern he had for her in his eyes, she couldn't help but feel sad.

Despite appearing like an elegant gentleman, Vivian knew that Benedict was a proud man just like Finnick. After all, they had both grown up in an equally prominent family.

Therefore, for him to lower himself and apologize on behalf of Evelyn, Vivian knew that he cared a great deal for her.

Thinking back, she remembered that it was Benedict who saved her after she was kidnapped by Evelyn. Therefore, he knew full well whether she was violated.

However, given Finnick's reaction, Vivian surmised that Benedict never explained the situation to him. Furthermore, given that so much had been happening lately, she had forgotten that Benedict could help her prove her innocence.

Perhaps, Benedict isn't aware that Evelyn has conspired with the doctor to slander me. Also, he might not think that Finnick would have such a reaction, just like I didn't. In that case, if Benedict is willing to clear the air with Finnick, the misunderstanding between Finnick and I will be resolved.

With a hopeful attitude, Vivian asked Benedict in a probing manner. "Benedict, are you aware that Evelyn had told Finnick that the four men had violated me?"

Realizing that Vivian had found out, Benedict felt even more guilty. "Vivian, she..."
