A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 1649

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1649

Just as she spoke, she collapsed onto the ground. The pain in her head intensified while her vision faded to a blur. All she could feel was the jarring light from the sun and a shadow rushing toward her.

“Joan!”

That was the last thing she heard before falling unconscious. It felt exactly like when he dived over to protect her head from an oncoming basketball a long time ago. The concerned look he had now was the same as then.

Larry’s mind drew a blank. Joan, are you going to torment me with this tactic just because you can’t win the argument? That’s really despicable of you. As he dashed over and pulled her into his embrace, he hugged her so tightly as if he was about to crush her.

“What’s wrong, Joan? Wake up! Don’t sleep!” Larry saw that her lips were pale and forehead covered in sweat. Her wet fringes had stuck messily over her face. Every time she appears in front of me, she would always be in some sort of trouble.

Picking her up, Larry carefully placed her in the front passenger seat. After that, he floored the accelerator and sped toward the hospital. With his left hand on the steering wheel, he held her hand tightly with his right.

Thinking back, he was also holding her hand in the bright white hall when he vowed to grow old with her and to never abandon her. But ever since their misunderstanding, they always argued when they saw each other. He admitted that the stress from work and the blurry lines between her relationship with Dustin caused his frustration to mount. But after giving the matter some thought, he realized that he never gave her an opportunity to explain.

“Joan, please be alright. When you wake up, I will patiently listen to whatever you have to say. I promise I won’t be angry or argue with you. Also, I won’t blame you anymore. So let’s just reconcile.”
