A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2328

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2328

His gentleness warmed Joan’s heart like the morning sun. Nonetheless, she saw her relationship with Dustin as strictly platonic.

“I’m really impressed by how well-prepared you are!” she complimented him with an exaggerated laugh to ease the awkwardness between them.

Little did she know he had specifically prepared the scarf for her.

“How about we go for a pizza? If I’m not mistaken, the pizza joint has just come up with their new menu!”

“Sure, let’s go!” Dustin replied gleefully.

Both of them left the supermarket in high spirits and headed for the pizza joint not far from them.

Probably due to the chilly weather, the pizza joint was more packed than usual.

“Waiter, I want to add two appetizers!”

“Waiter, get me the tabasco!”

“Five cans of beer, please!”

The place was crowded, but everyone was having a good time.

“Look, there’s a vacant table in the corner. Is it fine for you?” Dustin whispered with concern.

He knew Joan was an introvert who preferred a quieter environment.

“Yeah, let’s take the seat.” She made a beeline for the table.

Dustin was in a good mood lately. Having Joan to himself like tonight only made things better.

“Did you locate the shareholder’s whereabouts?” Larry asked solemnly.

In an instant, Caspian stared at the floor, thinking of a way to break the news.

The other shareholders failed to track him down throughout all these years. How could I do it in such a short time? It’s mission impossible!

“There’s still no sign of him. But Larry, don’t worry. We won’t give up searching for him. Once we find a lead, I’ll notify you immediately.” Caspian tried to cheer him up.

How long do I need to wait? One year? Two? Three years? Perhaps we might never find him again? Larry felt down at the thought.

Caspian had never seen him in such a miserable state. Larry used to be fearless. He would forge ahead even under extreme circumstances. This time, he’s really powerless no matter how hard he tries. There’s nothing much we can do if the shareholder refuses to show up.

“What’s the matter with both of you? It’s almost midnight. Do you intend to stay awake the whole night here? Even machines can’t operate non-stop. Do you want to end up dying of fatigue? Go back to sleep now!” Jessica came and roared at the men.
