A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2916

Chapter 2916

"Okay;’ Jessica replied.

Since Joan didn't want to elaborate any further, she wasn't going to push the subject.She knew that Joan had to have her own reasons for doing the things she did.

After a few days of being under observation in the hospital, Joan was finally discharged.

Other than Jessica, no one else knew where she would be moving into.

"Are you sure you're all right with living here alone?"

Jessica fretted, one hand on Joan's shoulder.

"Won't you get scared at night? Maybe I should move in with you..."

Scared?What's there to be scared of? Joan shook her head.She really needed her own space and time to think.

"Then, what if Larry—"

"No!"

Joan cut her off before she could even finish her sentence.

Jessica could tell that Joan was already starting to grow a bias toward Larry.

As such, she promptly shut herself up and left as soon as they had completed all preparations.

Afterward, Joan sat on a swinging chair in the yard, staring at the endless blue skies and fluffy white clouds above her as she let out a relieved sigh.

Won't it be great if everything could end right now, and everyone would go on with their own lives? Her phone kept ringing, but she didn't notice it at all, completely lost in her own thoughts.

"What?"

Larry's jaw dropped as he confronted one of the doctors at the hospital.

"Joan was discharged? When? Where did she go? Who took her?"

"She was discharged yesterday, sir.A woman came to pick her up."

It wasn't Dustin nor Caspian, but a woman?Was it Jessica?Maybe Nancy or Abelyn?But that doesn't sound right.

If it was really one of them, they would have notified me beforehand! "It was me."

Jessica sat on a sofa in the living room, hanging her head as everyone else crowded around her.

Despite so, she couldn't possibly go back on her promise to Joan and tell them the address of where she lived.

"Well...She'll probably come back as soon as she feels better!"

Jessica insisted.

"Don't get all worked up.She'll be fine, I swear"

Seeing that she wasn't going to reveal Joan's whereabouts anytime soon, Larry and the rest of them decided not to force the answer out of her.

They all knew Jessica's personality well and that she had to have her own reasons for keeping Joan's address a secret.

Although, that didn't mean that they would give up on trying to find it out.

Larry plopped down onto another sofa and squeezed his eyes shut, massaging his temples.He told everyone else to leave him alone for a quick break, and they did just that.

Only Jessica couldn't shake the antsy feeling in her heart.

At that exact moment, Joan was laying on the couch flipping through a magazine absentmindedly, bored to death.

All she could think about was Larry, but there was no way she could see him now.
