A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 376

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 376

“What should we do now?” The more Vivian thought about it, the more panicked she became. She didn’t know what she could do at that time.

“I’ve already asked the maintenance department to go over. Don’t panic yet, Mrs. Norton, as it could just be a small matter. Mr. Norton will be fine.” As Noah realized his overly anxious tone might have scared Vivian earlier, he remained calm and comforted her. “Let’s go over and see what’s going on,” he said.

“Alright.” Vivian followed Noah from behind as they rushed downstairs.

The maintenance department’s technician was already there when they arrived at the location.

“What is going on?” Noah asked the maintenance technician anxiously.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Lotte, it’s not a serious problem. It’s because the lift’s leveling sensor malfunctioned and triggered other safety switches, that’s why the lift made an emergency stop and got stuck between two floors,” the maintenance technician explained. “We have already taken the necessary measures so it’s basically pretty safe. However, we might need more time.”

“How long would you need?”

“Around three hours.”

“That’s really long!” When Vivian heard that it would take so long, she couldn’t help but worry. “Will something bad happen?”

“Though it will take three hours, there will be enough air in the lift for two people to breathe, so there shouldn’t be any problems. We will try our best to shorten the rescue time, so don’t worry.”

As the maintenance technician reassured them that everything would be fine, Vivian and Noah felt a slight relief.

However, Vivian’s heart sank at the thought of Finnick and Evelyn being alone in the lift for three hours.

I must trust Finnick, I have to trust Finnick… Vivian reminded herself repeatedly as she waited anxiously by the lift.

At the same time, both Finnick and Evelyn remained silent in the lift.

“Finnick, have you been well after all these years?” Seeing that Finnick had not been speaking, Evelyn had no choice but to break the silence herself.

“Quite well.” Finnick remained mute after saying that.

“Have you ever blamed me for not finding you all these years, Finnick?”

Finnick glanced at Evelyn with a puzzled look. “Didn’t you lose your memory?” he asked.

“Yes. Otherwise, I would have come to you sooner,” Evelyn replied a little anxiously.

Finnick nodded and stopped talking.

Evelyn’s eyes were filled with disappointment since Finnick had never looked at her or continued the conversation except for taking a short glance at her earlier.
