A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 1733

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1733

Upon hearing Nancy’s question, Jory’s brows furrowed. “Huh? That’s impossible! My dad can’t possibly be in Marsingfill. Even if he is, don’t you think it’s strange if we were to appear at the same event at the same time?”

While Nancy knew that his relationship with the chairman of Alpire Group was strained, she never expected it to be so bad that it would be strange if they were to appear in the same place at the same time.

By then, Jory was already unfastening his seatbelt. “Let’s not talk about him anymore. I’m in a good mood today, so let’s not ruin it…”

“In this world, blood ties are the only bond that can never be severed. If there’s an opportunity, you should keep an open mind and talk to him,” Nancy exhorted without looking at him as she unfastened her seatbelt.

When Jory, who was unfastening his seatbelt, heard that, he lifted his head and glanced at her beside him. The gleam in his eyes at that moment was one even he himself couldn’t decipher.

All annual competitions were as strict as the current one. Every single person who wanted to enter the dojo had to be checked one at a time before they were allowed entrance, as though passing a security check.

It was then midsummer, so it was really scorching. For that reason, it was truly torturous to queue outside the door to pass the security check. Worse still, they had to endure extreme thirst since there wasn’t a single grocery store in sight.

Jory reached out and wiped the sweat off his forehead. Beside him, Nancy wasn’t faring any better. Oh God, it’s just too warm today! Fortunately, I didn’t apply any makeup, or I would’ve ended up with it running down my face now.

She then reached into her bag for a tissue, inwardly lauding herself for having packed everything necessary before leaving the house. Out of the blue, she felt bursts of cool air against the back of her hand, and she suddenly remembered that she had thrown two bottles of mineral water into her bag before leaving.

Most importantly… it’s cold!

In the next second, she brandished a bottle of mineral water in front of Jory as though presenting him with a priceless treasure. However, she then shifted it away before he could snatch it out of her hands. With a smug expression on her face, she declared, “You’ll owe me a favor.”
