Never Late, Never Away

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 478

Outside the hospital, Vivian spotted Noah standing away from the car. Without regard for her own appearance, she approached and got ahold of him. “Tell me what’s going on, Noah. Did Finnick really want to get rid of this baby?”

Noah was shocked when he first saw her burst out of the doors. He avoided meeting her eyes when she questioned him. His gaze was filled with guilt and a certain sense of helplessness.

“Yes.” That took him some time to say.

That answer seemed to have sapped all the energy from her. Her hands fell away from him, and her eyes were filled with incredulity.

“How could this be? How could he lie to me?” Vivian muttered as she wept. “No, I don’t believe it…”

Vivian’s words were at odds with what she had already acknowledged to be true. Noah was Finnick’s most trusted aide, so his words must reflect Finnick’s intention.

To think that Finnick’s affections and concern over the past few days were all mere pretenses. That he had this planned out all along. Vivian’s heart felt like it was being rend.
