Never Late, Never Away Chapter 88

Meanwhile, Fabian was momentarily stunned. He had not expected Ashley to utter those words, much less cared to question his feelings towards her. However, he quickly recovered and a cold look flashed across his face. “I’ve seen all the photos. What else can I misunderstand? What other explanations are there?”

Seeing his tense expression, she dared not say anything more.

Fabian observed the pitiful-looking woman in his arms, then suddenly remembered something. He frowned and questioned, “By the way, why and how did you end up with those photos?”

After all, those photos were sent to him by an anonymous contact through email. He had not shown them to anyone except for Finnick and Vivian. How did Ashley end up with those photos in the first place?

The question caught Ashley by surprise. She had been immersed in her worries, and initially thought that she had succeeded in changing the subject. Hearing his inquiry, her face paled once more.

Oh no! I almost forgot. I have yet to explain the origin of those blasted photos!

Noticing Ashley’s face had turned white suddenly, something in Fabian clicked. Realizing slowly the suspected truth, he gently pulled her away from his arms. With his stern expression and his raised eyebrows, Fabian interrogated with a frown, “Ashley, are you the one who sent me those photos?”

Ashley could not help but clench her fingers tightly. She knew that she was now in hot waters.

In fact, just a few days ago, when she first learned that Vivian was married to Finnick, her mind was so full of unjustified anger that she made up the plan on the spot to sabotage her without any careful planning nor afterthought.
