Never Late, Never Away Chapter 39

Vivian guessed that he probably saw her calling at the staircase. However, as she could not think of an explanation on the spot, she merely replied, “Well, it’s just some stuff at work. It’s not anything important.”

Vivian was not deliberately trying to conceal her mother’s condition from Finnick. It was because she really did not know how to bring it up.

If she said that her mother was severely ill and she was in dire need of money for her treatment, it would sound like she was demanding money from Finnick.

Although they were married and she was starting to develop some reliance on Finnick, she was still unwilling to reveal her vulnerabilities to others.

Perhaps, this was a habit she had cultivated since young. Her mother always reminded her that even if everyone mocked her for not having a father and for being an illegitimate child, she must never display any weaknesses. She must never let someone else make a joke out of her.

When Finnick noticed that Vivian’s gaze flitted, he pondered for a while and decided against asking further.

Naturally, he knew about her mother’s condition.

However, he did not plan on taking the initiative to offer her help. As he knew how sensitive and stubborn she was, he was afraid of affecting the fragile trust between them.
