A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 1722

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1722

“It’s been a while, Larry.”

Larry tuned him out in his head. As he watched his lips moved, rage started plucking at his nerves.

He stepped forward with lightning speed, grabbed his collar and stared at the man with eyes that seemed like he was about to eat him up.

“Are you trying to mess with me now?” Larry snarled through clenched teeth. The urge to punch him was hard to keep under control.

On the other hand, that man did not feel intimidated. Instead, his expression was as calm as still water. He gazed down at Larry with an enormous grin splitting his face. “If I say yes, are you going to swing your fist at me?”

It turned out that the mysterious man who invited him was none other than Dustin. Despite the tense moment, he gave Larry a sarcastic reply with his composed face. Although it would seem like a joke between two friends in the eyes of others, his words were contemptuous irony.

Larry obviously didn’t take his words as a mere joke because their relationship was more than that. Larry’s wife, Joan treated Dustin as her life savior. She always felt that she owed him, despite Larry and Dustin being fierce rivals.

Soon, people began to gather around them. A buzz of chatter and gossip rose from the crowd. Yet neither of them cared about people’s stares. At that moment, there was a tense atmosphere around them.
