A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 756

"Don't fret, Vivian. I'll come back right away. Larry could have just gone out to play. You should wait at home. In case he comes back, at least you are around," said Benedict.

"Alright, I know what to do. Come back quickly, Ben," said Vivian chokily.

"I will," he said. Right after hanging up, Benedict rang up his friend who was a detective and grabbed his car keys simultaneously. He left his office and headed straight home.

He reached soon and saw Finnick standing at his gate. Anger immediately boiled up in his heart. He walked over with big strides and questioned loudly, "Why have you come to the Morrison residence?"

Finnick did not seem to mind his hostile attitude and went on to explain, "Vivian was with me just now. She looked really bothered about something.

I thought I'd wait here to see if I could help..."

A heavy punch landed on his face before he could finish speaking. "You heartless scoundrel! It was you who cruelly tossed aside Vivian five years ago. How dare you act all kind and caring right now?"

The impact from the punch almost made Finnick fall to the ground. He raised a hand to wipe a corner of his mouth but did not make any move to fight back. He understood that Benedict was aggrieved by the hardships that Vivian had suffered. Hence, he took the blow that was inflicted on him wordlessly. Nonetheless, Benedict did not seem to be moved at all by his tolerance.

Enduring the pain on his face, Finnick spoke, "Vivian looked really agitated. I think you had better go check on her. Just tell me if you need any help." He diverted his gaze to the house with concern.

"Stop pretending to be helpful!" Benedict's hostility towards Finnick did not diminish at all upon hearing his worry. He wanted very badly to teach this a**hole a lesson on behalf of Vivian.

However, he had more pressing matters to attend to at the moment. Larry was still missing so he had no time to waste on this b*stard. He pointed at Finnick viciously and bellowed, "I'll deal with you later!"

And with that, he stomped into his house leaving Finnick outside. Finnick laughed bitterly to himself. Looks like I'll have to go through big brother Benedict before I can truly get back together with Vivian.
