A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2039

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2039

“Oh, um, your mom isn’t feeling well today, so I came back early to check on her.” Larry touched Lucius’ head and flashed him an affectionate smile.

“What? Mom’s not feeling well? Why? Where’s she? How’s she feeling now? Is she getting better?” Lucius asked, feeling worried.

Joan, who was in the bedroom, was touched at the boy’s words.

Perhaps this boy is the only person in this world who will believe me. She bit her finger to keep her emotion in control.

Gasp!

Lucius slowly tiptoed into her room.

“Mom? Are you feeling better?” Lying down next to Joan, he looked at her worriedly, feeling distressed.

“Don’t worry. I’m just having an upset stomach. I’m fine. Be a good boy and do your homework.” Joan gently stroked his hair with a warm, fuzzy feeling inside her.

After chatting for a while, Lucius went to his room and began doing his homework.

Meanwhile, Larry also went into the kitchen to prepare food.

Ring! Ring! Ring!

Glancing at his phone, Larry answered the call.

“How’s it? Did the man do anything?” he asked.

“Larry, that man only chatted for a while with Gabriella at the hospital and returned home without doing anything.” Caspian sounded dubious as he had a feeling that there was more to it than met the eye. However, he could not find any faults and flaws.

I can’t believe Gabriella actually becomes so meticulous and cautious after coming back from overseas. Caspian knitted his brows.

Ring! Ring! Ring!

Larry glanced at the caller ID and hurriedly picked up the call.

“Larry, the surveillance footage has been tampered with, but…” Caspian faltered because he could not restore the original footage.

“Okay.” Larry sounded tired.

Caspian knew that he was exhausted. He had been overwhelmed by works recently, so naturally, he was anxious now that he had to deal with such a tricky matter.

“Go and find the expert in this area,” Larry said calmly.

He did not believe that Gabriella had such a skill. Besides, her friends were mostly socialites and sons of the rich, and she barely had any friends that had a decent job. Therefore, the greatest possibility was that she hired someone to do it.

Throughout the night, Larry sat on the sofa working with his laptop. He did not have time to sleep, nor comfort Joan. Although Joan did hurt Gabriella in the surveillance footage, he decided to believe the former after thinking about it for a long time.
