A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 1641

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1641

As Joan put her hand on his forehead, she could feel it burning. Seized by panic, she picked him up and darted outside.

While running, her heel was accidentally caught between a gap of a manhole. Despite her struggles, she was unable to dislodge it still. However, with Leslie’s eyes still closed, she decided to leave the shoe and rushed toward the hospital.

Soon, the doctor had taken over Leslie while Joan went to the registration counter to register. She had begun to hobble her way around awkwardly.

At that moment, she had the urge to slap herself as punishment. Given how careless I am, how am I able to raise Leslie properly? Or even give him a good life? That was nothing but a fantasy.

I hope that Leslie will be fine. Or else, there’s no way I can face Larry’s parents. I wouldn’t be able to face Larry either.

Just when she was deep in thought, someone pulled her arm, causing her to regain her senses. She widened her eyes in surprise when she saw who it was.

He was wearing a white coat. When he took his hand out of his pocket and removed his facemask, a handsome face emerged before her.

Gaping, she murmured, “Dustin?”

“Joan? What happened?” when he saw how listless she looked, he grabbed her shoulders and asked. However, Joan maintained her silence.

When Dustin noticed that she was ignoring him, he looked around and saw the surrounding crowd. After which he pulled her to a corner.

“Joan, what happened to you? When I saw you walking around alone looking lost, I called out to you but you didn’t respond. What’s going on? Where’s Larry? What happened between the two of you?” Dustin’s concern was written all over his face.
