I just wanted to ask something a more scandalous question, but never had I thought that Finnick Norton's temper would be so bad that he blacklisted me at once!
In a trice, unbridled rage blazed in the reporter's initially calm eyes though her thoughts remained indiscernible.
"Go and pack up, Vivian. Ben will probably be home soon." As soon as they went into the house, Finnick asked Vivian to pack up.
He initially planned to help her out, but alas, he didn't know what she needed or otherwise.
Thus, he had no choice but to have her do it herself.
"Okay." Vivian was very satisfied with his action earlier, so at the thought that they would be going home in a while, she instantly felt as though she was walking on air.
"Daddy, why did those reporters earlier ask Mommy all those questions?" Larry was extremely puzzled as to why they asked Vivian all those personal questions.
Mommy isn't a celebrity, so why were they in such a frenzy?
"They actually came because of your kidnapping, but they unexpectedly saw me and your mommy with you, so the subject shifted to our relationship."
Finnick knew that Larry's kidnapping case had already caused a sensation. The reporters should have been inquiring about the kidnapping case, but gossip naturally garnered more attention compared to a criminal case.
As they knew which of the two took precedence, they forgot their initial intention and inquired about their relationship instead.
"Hence, you can't be so mischievous in the future, little pumpkin." Vivian couldn't help chiding Larry when she overheard their conversation while packing her things.
This time, he had indeed gone overboard, but it was all thanks to him that I've now reconciled with Finnick. If not, I've got no idea when the misunderstanding between us would've been resolved.
"Got it, Mommy," Larry murmured guiltily, knowing that he had created trouble for his parents this time.
"But your intelligence and courage are indeed admirable, little pumpkin," Finnick proclaimed as he ruffled Larry's head, admiration written all over
his face.
The kidnapping this time took place at a relatively remote place, and Larry had to observe them outside at night, so it required a lot of guts.
