Finnick grinned when he saw Vivian fleeing in the direction of the entrance. He thought the easily embarrassed and helpless woman was the one he used to know back in the day.
Never would he think she would turn into such a capable and exceptional woman over a few years. He secretly wished he could turn back time to salvage the moment they had.
It was a hassle-free trip. After they alighted from the plane, the party boarded the car to the hotel because Finnick had Noah sorted everything out beforehand.
Vivian finally got away from Finnick. Once she boarded the car, she took the seat next to Sarah. Finnick had no choice but to take a seat behind them.
Pillere Island had always been known for its breathtaking views. On their way to the hotel, the thrilled bunch was in awe because of the breathtaking scenery along the way.
"Vivian, look at the blinding shade of turquoise seawater! Oh, God! What's with those sparkling sand? It must feel great if we can run on the beach with our bare feet!" Sarah expressed her excitement.
Vivian responded with a smile and looked out the window, staring at the beach.
She was a huge fan of tropical islands and couldn't wait to spend some time in Pillere Island, feeling the salty ocean breeze and the scorching sun. A simple glance made her felt as though she could shrug everything that had been bothering her behind.
When Finnick saw Vivian's smile, he responded in a similar manner because he recalled the conversation they had. She used to tell him she couldn't wait to visit countries with islands and beaches with him because she was a huge fan of oceans.
They had all sorts of tentative locations planned out for them to drop by during their free time. Unfortunately, they never had the chance to execute their plan.
Therefore, he had decided to conduct the trip to Pillere Island to atone for his sins. It wouldn't matter if Vivian couldn't figure out his intention because the smile on her face was all it would take to please him.
When they reached the hotel, the thrilled bunch couldn't help but be impressed by their supervisor with a deep pocket. They were grateful to be given the opportunity to spend time in such a lavish resort because of their Chief Editor.
