A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 571

As she sat in her familiar surroundings with her ex-lover expressing his concern about her, Vivian started to feel like she had returned to her college days when Fabian used to be her confidant.

The memories seemed to affect Vivian more than she thought as she suddenly felt the unfamiliar urge of wanting to rely on someone.

"I got pregnant five years ago but Finnick suspected that the child didn't belong to him. He forced me to get an abortion, but I didn't want to. He sent people after me."

Vivian told Fabian about how Finnick had sent people after her and forced her to get an abortion. Relieving old memories brought on the same pain she had felt all those years ago, causing her to tear up.

Fabian couldn't help but frown at the sound of Vivian's sorrow. He knew he was at risk of making Vivian feel worse, but he couldn't help but ask, "Why did Finnick think the baby wasn't his?"

Vivian remembered that Mark was involved in her kidnapping as well, so Vivian cut things short. "Evelyn kidnapped me and even tried to get someone to rape me, but Benedict arrived just in time and saved me from that. I don't know what she said to Finnick, but he ended up believing that the child wasn't his and refused to let me keep it."

"That doesn't mean he should force you to get an abortion. He went too far!" Fabian said

angrily. Why did Vivian have to face something like that? She didn't even do anything wrong!

Vivian felt even more detached from Finnick at the sound of Fabian's rage on her behalf. Even Fabian could understand how she felt, how could Finnick, of all people have done that to her? She still

couldn't forgive him.

"W-what happened to the kid?" Fabian asked carefully, afraid of adding salt to Vivian's wounds.

"Well..." Vivian hesitated. She decided not to tell Fabian the truth. The less people who knew about Larry, the better.

"Benedict rushed me to the hospital in time so I didn't suffer too much, but there was no way we could keep the baby after something like that."
