A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 1954

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1954

“Look how blessed you are! They’re envious that I’m giving you a massage,” Dustin murmured deliberately.

Without a word, Joan gave him an awkward smile.

Did I ask him to massage me? No, I didn’t, but he forced me to accept it. Larry is going to get jealous if he ever finds out about this.

A hint of worry appeared on the woman’s face.

“Joan?” Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded.

Opening her eyes quickly, she saw a woman in front of her.

“It’s you! Are you here for a vacation?” The short, young woman asked excitedly.

Joan got to know this woman when she went shopping together with Larry. It was a comical encounter.

At that time, the woman went shopping as well. Unfortunately, a snatch thief stole her wallet, and she broke her glasses too. Later, she ran into Larry and Joan. Squinting her eyes at him, she insisted adamantly that he was the snatch thief until the police caught the culprit. Their friendship started with a misunderstanding.

“What? Oh, yeah.” Joan answered with embarrassment.

She couldn’t reveal the fact that she was sick.

“Where’s your husband? Or are you…” The woman pointed at Dustin doubtfully.

“I wish I were her husband.” The man smiled faintly.

Amused, the woman chuckled at his words.

“Larry has been busy recently,” Joan explained in a low voice.

“Oh, I see. But he should take a rest sometimes, no matter how busy he is.”

“Come here, Mom!” a kid shouted from some distance away.

“Excuse me, my son is calling me. See you again.” The woman patted Joan’s shoulder. While walking away, she mumbled to herself, “How strange. Why would her husband let another man takes care of her?”

Staring at her retreating back, Joan knew that the woman had a misunderstanding again.

Whatever. Her opinion doesn’t matter to me. This time, I probably won’t be able to return to my country.

“Come on, let’s continue.” Dustin rubbed her temples.

“Are you guys together?” An adorable lady appeared out of nowhere and stood in front of them.

What a meticulous and thoughtful woman.

In the office, Larry was staring at the computer screen solemnly, but his mind was occupied by Joan’s face.

“Larry.” Caspian knocked on the door and ambled in.

“Gabriella insisted on keeping the baby, or else…” He hesitated and bit his tongue.

“Or else? What is she going to do?” Lifting his head, Larry looked at the man with a brow raised.

“Or else she would be gone together with the baby.”

Bang! He pounded the desk with his fist.

Who on earth does she think she is? How dare she bargain with me!

“Larry, it’ll be troublesome if anything happens to her. After all, Gabriella is the only daughter of the Ward family.”

Larry’s gaze appeared gloomy. Of course, I know I can’t act impetuously.

“Is there any news about Joan?”
