Whenever he couldn't bear it and wanted to make it clear to Evelyn that he did not love her, she would look at him with teary eyes as if she had been wronged. She would also ask him if he had disliked her because of her physical disability. Sometimes, she would even smash things to vent her frustration.
After consulting the doctor, the doctor said she might not have fully accepted the fact that her legs were crippled. Thus, he was told to let her have her way and not say things she did not want to hear lest it provoked her. Otherwise, her condition would only get worse.
Thinking that he was the reason Evelyn became like this, Finnick had no choice but to agree to the doctor.
However, he had also had it figure out. Since he could not get over Vivian, nor would he get into a relationship with Evelyn, he decided that he would not let things go on like this. Otherwise, it would only hurt all three of them.
More importantly, since Vivian had now returned, he would never let her leave again and was determined to get her back.
However, Vivian did not know about Finnick's thoughts, so his words only made her want to slap him in the face. Obviously, he didn't want to keep the baby. How can he blame God?
"Drop the act already, Finnick. If you hadn't done whatever it took to get rid of the baby, I wouldn't have had a miscarriage!" Vivian said through her gritted teeth.
Even now, he still refuses to admit what happened back then and says this kind of thing. Does he think I'm a fool?
In addition to resentment, Vivian's heart filled with disappointment. So this is the man I once loved deeply.
She once regarded him as the God who redeemed her, but it was this man, who she admired so much, that pushed her to hell five years ago. She used to think he was a responsible man, but after five years, he still tried to hide the things he had done.
