A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 1611

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1611

“Dear, Leslie had just gone to sleep, so why don’t you accompany me shopping? I want to buy a few things,” Joan implored coquettishly.

“Let me sleep for a bit more. I’ll go with you when I wake up,” Larry mumbled groggily.

Then, he rolled over and continued sleeping.

When Joan saw that he was ignoring her, she decided to resort to her ultimate means.

“Ouch, please let go of my ear! Darling, please have mercy on me! I’ll go, okay?”

Larry hurriedly pleaded for mercy when he abruptly sensed a bolt of agonizing pain assaulting his ear while still sleeping soundly.

“Hmph! I called you to get up, but you just wouldn’t listen! Serves you right!” Joan declared smugly, looking all proud of herself.

Ugh! What bad luck! Larry groused with a long sigh as he rubbed his red ear. Then, he grudgingly allowed her to drag him out the door.

Shopping was in a woman’s nature, and that saying was spot-on.

Despite her usually weak and fragile appearance, Joan became an entirely different person when she shopped. It had been three hours, but she showed no signs of fatigue, looking very much energetic instead.

“Darling, I don’t remember you being so fond of shopping before we got married,” Larry remarked on a sigh.

“That’s because I had no time back then. After having experienced so much, I really wasn’t in any mood to shop at that time. Besides, you didn’t have time to accompany me either. Later, I got pregnant, so it was out of the question to shop with a protruding belly. But now, we can come and shop often!”

Joan’s eyes darted around enthusiastically, seemingly just not having enough of it.

Upon hearing that, Larry almost broke down. Once or twice is fine, but to go shopping often simply won’t do!

However, Joan was enjoying herself, so he couldn’t bring himself to burst her bubble. Thus, he said nothing but continued to accompany her shopping in silence.

When Joan was feeling a tad tired, she sat on a bench by the roadside with Larry to rest for a bit.
