A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 1676

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1676

Never had she expected that Larry would engrave the jade on his own in the dead of the night. Now her name ‘Joan’ had been specially and ingeniously inscribed on this expensive jade.

The crooked and unsightly inscription was nothing like Larry’s elegant handwriting. Larry must have tried his best to control the graver, but how could one compare between writing with a pen and a graver? That was how this one-of-a-kind jade came about.

As her finger stroked the uneven surface of the engraving on the jade, millions vivid images of Larry flashed across her mind. Other than the happy memories of him, she recalled his enraged face and the times when they got into a serious fight. The last image that came into her mind was Larry sitting at his desk, holding a graver while looking out the window at the night sky, and his forehead was drenched in sweat.

The man had never shown her the engraved jade, but in the end, it somehow ended up in Leslie’s and her hands.

Larry visited Leslie before he went missing. I believe he’ll definitely come back, because he’s still holding onto many people and things. He’ll never abandon me and Leslie just like that.

When Finnick and Vivian saw Joan bringing Leslie to them, their eyes misted over right away. Turning around in silence, Joan blinked back her tears and hailed a cab to the beach.

Regardless of whether she could find Larry, she wanted to give it a try. A man would be constantly on a woman’s mind if she cared deeply for him, wanting to set foot in every place he had been to before.

People usually took the things they had for granted or even despised them. Only when they lost something would they remember the goodness that they once had or the people who they cared for, and that would become the most precious part of their memories.

The waves crashed against the shore unceasingly, glimmering as the sunlight hit the surface of the sea. Only a handful of people were on the beach. Joan was worn out as she had been to various places over the past few days. But the scenery of the endless ocean and the relaxing rhythm of the waves calm her down, and her anxiety ceased.
