A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 1468

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1468

“It’ll be ready to be handed over to Norton Corporation tomorrow after a bit of overtime tonight.”

Joan’s eyes were fixed on Larry. Everything that had happened last night was still vivid in her mind, and she remembered all that he had done for her.

“Submit the proposal to me the day after tomorrow. In the future, try not to work overtime anymore. It’s bad for health.”

Larry’s voice was a tad cold and stiff, but Joan could still discern the smidgen of concern in it.

A burst of warmth instantly infused her, and she replied with a smile, “Thank you.”

At the thought that the day after tomorrow would be the last time they were seeing each, a wealth of anguish weighed upon her.

It was only when she was swamped with work could she control herself from thinking about him. Whenever she had a little time on her hands, his image and every single detail about him would flood into her mind and occupy every inch of it.

I can’t deny that I still love him deeply, but he already has a girlfriend, and she’s my best friend during college. How could I be the third party who destroys their relationship? After having concluded this business deal, I’ll leave.

In the end, she chose to run away from him.

However, no one knew whether leaving would actually be a relief or an agonizing torture.

Meanwhile, in the residence of the Ward family…

“Dad, is our family the biggest business partner of Norton Corporation?” Gabriella inquired sweetly as she massaged her father, Landon Ward.

“Yup. At present, the Ward family’s biggest business partner is indeed Norton Corporation. But as Norton Corporation is the biggest company in Marsingfill, we’re not their most important collaborator. Rather, we are the one depending on them in many aspects.”

Landon had his eyes closed as he luxuriated in his daughter’s rare show of filial piety.

“What’s wrong, Gabriella? Why did you suddenly ask about business?”

“Ah, it’s nothing. It’s just that I really like Larry, and he has feelings for me as well. Will it be beneficial to our family and mutually benefit both parties if the two families join in marriage?”

Finally, Gabriella revealed her ultimate goal—to bind herself with Larry by making use of the excuse of uniting with Norton Corporation via marriage. In that case, no matter how much Larry Norton loves Joan Watts, he can’t possibly go against his family’s wishes!
