A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 1619

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1619

The story of Cinderella and Prince Charming was indeed romantic, but no one knew how true to life it was exactly.

Seeing the way that Joan behaved, Larry knew that she was overthinking. This silly girl is beating herself up again.

Taking Joan into his arms, Larry said with his heart aching, “Joan, you’re overthinking again, aren’t you? How many times have I told you? I love you for who you are and not your identity or your educational background. Besides, does it really matter to us how people will look at it? As long as we’re genuinely in love with one another, we’ll only be showered with blessings and envy. There won’t be so much prejudice.” Larry’s voice was gentle.

Listening to his words, the bee in Joan’s bonnet quieted down, and she regained her composure by degrees.

When a woman overthought, the way her lover dealt with it and the words from him would often play the most critical and effective role.

“I know what you mean, but I’m still very regretful for not completing my tertiary education. Background and identity were given by parents; education level, however, is something I could have achieved on my own. Yet, I lost the opportunity.”

At that point, Joan lamented how impartial destiny was to everyone, as the more she got, the more she lost.

“There’s nothing to wallow about dropping out of college.”

Larry spoke his mind as he saw how dispirited Joan was, “Since you want to finish your studies, then let’s go back and finish college.”

“What did you say?”

Joan was at a loss for a moment as she heard what Larry said. “Going back and finish college? Is that really possible?”

“Why not? We can go back and let you finish your studies anytime as long as you want it,” Larry told Joan firmly.

During college years, there were a lot of students who had to defer their studies or drop out for some reason, and there were many among them who went back to complete their studies after getting their problems solved. Hence, to Larry, something like that was very common.
