Suddenly, Vivian’s expression darkened. “My mom and Harvey were studying in the same university. Harvey always fancied her but my mom didn’t feel the same way about him. Nevertheless, Harvey’s feelings for her never faded even after he got married. In fact, he even drugged and raped her. That’s how I was conceived. Although my mom hated Harvey, she felt that I was innocent, so she decided to keep me.”

Finnick looked at Vivian as he had never heard about this from his previous investigations.

“Emma was jealous of the feelings Harvey had for my mom, hence she spread rumors everywhere. She accused my mom of seducing Harvey and declared that she was his mistress. As my mom didn’t have any connections in high society, there was no way she could defend herself. All she could do was to bring me up by herself while enduring the smear on her reputation.

As Vivian recounted the past, her fist clenched unwittingly while her eyes were filled with hatred.

She absolutely despised Harvey. Unfortunately, there was no way she could change the fact that he was her biological father.

Lowering his gaze toward Vivian, Finnick held up her clenched fist and gently pried open her fingers one by one.

Vivian was caught by surprise. She raised her head to look at him as she smiled awkwardly. “I’m sorry, did I lose my composure?”

“You didn’t.” Despite his calm facade, Finnick’s eye emitted a much gentler vibe than usual. “I’m happy that you are sharing all this with me.”

It really meant a lot to him.

In truth, it wasn’t hard for him to find out about the matter if he really wanted to. But, when Vivian related it to him personally, it carried a lot more weight.

Giving Finnick a puzzled look, Vivian couldn’t help but laugh. “You really are one strange man.”

Finnick responded with a faint smile without commenting.

True to her words, he did find himself acting increasingly strange ever since he got to know Vivian.

The next few days were calm and uneventful.
