A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2109

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2109

“How has Joan been recently?” Caspian stiffened as he hesitated to answer. Of course, Larry noticed his apprehension instantly.

“What happened? Tell me!”

After listening to Caspian spill his heart out, Larry had a bitter taste in his mouth.

It hasn’t been more than a few days, and she’s already starting to cling onto other men? She’s married, for goodness’ sake!

What the hell does she think she’s doing?

Bang! Larry slammed the office door closed, making a beeline for his car.

“Where to, Mr. Norton?” The chauffeur asked.

“The hospital!”

The poor chauffeur nearly jumped out of his skin at the murderous aura that was emanating off of his voice. Without a second thought, he floored the gas pedal.

Larry was going to wait in the hospital until Joan appeared and then ask her about what was going on.

Anxiously rubbing his hands together, he stared at the unchanging red traffic light and wondered if God was playing some kind of mean trick on him. Noticing Larry’s stress, the chauffeur tried to start a conversation in order to distract him.

“It’ll be alright, Mr. Norton. The light will turn green soon.”

“Mm.”

It was a simple sound of affirmation, but it betrayed the fact that his patience was already at its limits.

The cars behind them were starting to honk as if it would make the traffic light change faster. Larry winded the car windows down for a breath of fresh air, but suddenly caught sight of something he probably shouldn’t have.

In the corner of a Western restaurant sat two people, or more specifically, Caiden and Joan. They looked very happy together, and she even giggled when he occasionally reached out to brush her hair away from her face.

“You must be tired after today,” Caiden told Joan in a low voice.

After all, she hadn’t wanted to come outdoors in the first place, but he’d insisted on dragging her along with him to go shopping for clothes.

“I’m fine,” Joan smiled kindly. “It’s the least I could do for the person whom I owe my life to.”
