Never Late, Never Away Chapter 35

When Vivian recalled why Finnick suddenly stood up that night, she blushed. Yet, she said with a smile, “A couple should trust each other.”

Xavier’s eyes sparkled as he looked at Vivian. He asked, “Vivian, did Finnick ever tell you why he pretends to be crippled?”

Taken aback, Vivian shook her head.

Finnick had said that it was better if she remained oblivious to certain things. Hence, she never pestered him for the answer.

“Ten years ago, a car accident happened to Finnick.” On the other hand, Xavier did not seem to have any reservations and told her outright. “Everyone thought that Finnick became crippled due to that accident. In reality, he only got injured and was fully healed after going to A Nation.”

Vivian searched her memories. She seemed to have read about his car accident in the news.

Back then, at barely 20 years old, Finnick had just started college. However, someone kidnapped him and demanded an exorbitant ransom. This created a huge commotion then as the news dominated the headlines for a long time.
