A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 123

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 123

Therefore, she decided to try her luck by asking Jenny, the long-serving journalist. “I…” Vivian steeled herself and replied, “I am just asking out of curiosity.”

“If you’re asking just to satisfy your curiosity, I advise that you better not pursue this matter any further.” Jenny put on a stern face as she continued, “It is not our place to inquire into the Norton family’s affair.” With that, she resumed her work at hand.

Jenny’s unduly reticent attitude only further aroused Vivian’s curiosity. I believe Jenny must know something…

“Jenny.” She pulled a chair to sit next to her. “I couldn’t tell you the reason, but I really need to know about the incident.”

At that moment, Vivian and Jenny were the only ones left in the office as the other workers had gone for lunch.

Jenny lifted her head and cast a meaningful glance at Vivian before she spoke, “Vivian, I can tell you about it, but you need to be frank with me. Are you asking this because of your husband?”

Vivian’s expression changed. “Jenny, what do you know?”

Jenny let out a sigh. “You sure are lucky because you’ve asked the right person. I was still working in the press when that incident happened, and I was responsible for reporting the case. At that time, I had dug deep into the case, but I was threatened by the Norton family to not leak any information about it. I knew how powerful the Norton family is, that’s why I stayed tight-lipped all these years.”

Vivian finally understood why Jenny knew that Finnick came from the Norton family. If Jenny had investigated the kidnap case, she would definitely know about Finnick’s name and how he looked.

However, Vivian felt unsettled by Jenny’s tone. “So what happened at that time?”
