A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 1663

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1663

She phoned Nancy repeatedly, and the latter felt her phone vibrating in her pocket. While her heart started to be swayed, Caspian snatched her phone and turned it off. By doing so, Joan could no longer call to ‘harass’ them anymore.

Being unable to get a hold of Larry either, Nancy panicked, and she felt fear spreading through her limbs. Usually, she was a person who would put all her energy into work, no matter what she encountered. Unfortunately, she now realized that was only possible because everything she had was built upon the foundation of having a lover, friends and a beautiful family.

With their backing, she had the capacity to fulfil her dreams. If they were gradually taken away from her, she would not have the strength and drive to chase those dreams of hers, as the people she treasured were more important than her ambitions.

Relative to her loved ones, her aspirations did not hold a candle to them. Is it too late for her to grasp this concept at this point?

Somehow, she stumbled onto the streets that were busy with traffic and filled with pedestrians as usual.

By the road, there was a woman who had set up a fruit stall. Her business seemed to be flourishing, and her line of customers did not seem to dwindle. Joan stepped forward to take a closer look. Unfortunately, from the perspective of others, she was blocking their way.

“Miss, can move away? It doesn’t matter if you are not buying anything, but please don’t get in our way,” a plump man chided her.

Startled, Joan took a few steps back obediently. At the same time, an older lady spotted her curious expression and asked her in amusement, “Are you trying to figure out why the business here is so good when there are plenty of other fruit stalls?”

Joan nodded. Seeing how she was willing to listen to her, the older lady grinned wider. “It’s because of how kind the owner of this fruit stall is. Her fruits are cheaper than her competitors, and they are delicious. Rumor has it that she is bringing up a child on her own. Yet, every time she makes a sale to us, she only earns a small profit. Since she is kind and pretty, we call her the ‘Fruit Goddess’.”
