A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 132

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 132

Helping him come outside had exhausted her so much that she had no energy left to check his condition.

The fireman sensed that she was asking about Fabian so he quickly took a look and replied, “He is quite alright but he has fainted. Don’t you worry!”

Only after hearing that was Vivian relieved. She closed her eyes and fell unconscious.

Moments passed.

When Vivian woke up the next time, she was lying on a hospital bed inside a ward.

At her bedside, sat Noah.

“Mrs. Norton, you’re awake!” Noah stood up as soon as he saw that she had regained consciousness. “How do you feel? Can you see clearly?”

At his words, Vivian realized that indeed, her eyesight seemed blurry and she could not see very well.

However, she was not concerned about that, instead, she grabbed Noah and asked in a hoarse voice, “Where’s Fabian?”

As soon as she spoke, she realized that her voice sounded like a damaged musical instrument.

A look of embarrassment flashed across Noah’s face but he replied, “Don’t worry. He’s fine. His wounds are infected but he should be awake now.”

Vivian heaved a sigh of relief. Then she coughed violently.

Noah quickly poured her a cup of water. “Mr. Norton is on the flight. He should be landing in a few hours.”

“Isn’t he in A Nation on a job?”

“The moment he heard about the fire at home, he booked the earliest flight back.” Noah continued in earnest, “Mrs. Norton, Mr. Norton is very concerned about you.”

Vivian’s lips twitched.

Perhaps, he’s more concerned about the necklace?

At the thought of the necklace, she quickly felt around her neck and said in a panic, “Where is the necklace?”

Noah was stunned at first. Then he remembered and immediately picked up the crystal necklace from the bedside nightstand. “Are you referring to this?”

Noah had no idea what the crystal necklace was all about. He watched as Vivian held the necklace in her hands and a wave of relief washed over her. “This is great! The necklace is still here…”

Vivian could only brace herself as she signal Noah to push her inside.

The moment Ashley saw her, her tears stopped flowing and flames of jealousy and hatred filled her eyes.

Quickly, Fabian turned to Ashley and said, “Ashley, leave us for a while.”

Unwillingness was written all over Ashley’s face but since Fabian was insistent, she had no choice but to leave. Before that, she made sure to glare at Vivian venomously.

Noah left the room too.

In the ward, Fabian was alone with Vivian.

Vivian gazed at Fabian’s pale face. His legs were in plaster casts. On his face and shoulders were numerous burn injuries and she wondered how bad were the burns under his clothes.

Spontaneously, her eyes turned a little red.

Nonetheless, she did her best to control her emotions and said softly, “Fabian, I really want to thank you sincerely for this.”

Fabian looked at Vivian and replied calmly, “You really should thank me. Did you know how dangerous it was back there? You went back into the room to get that necklace. If it weren’t for me, I guess you would have died inside.”
