A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2118

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2118

“Lucius, here are your favorite buffalo wings. Your mom made them just for you.” Delilah placed a piece of buffalo wings on Lucius’ plate.

“Thanks for the wonderful meal, Mom!” The young boy praised his mom and flashed her a blinding smile before digging in happily.

The atmospherically awkward dinner soon came to an end. However, Caiden showed no signs of taking his leave, much to Larry’s dismay.

“Lucius, shall we play a game together?” Caiden swept his hands around Lucius and had him sit on his lap.

“I’m down for it! But it’s late now. Don’t you have to go home?” Lucius curiously looked at Caiden.

The moon had long settled snugly in the dark sky. It was indeed late.

“I see. You don’t like me anymore. Guess I’ll just go then.” Caiden loosened his grip, acting as if he was upset.

“No, no, no, Caiden! I like you, but I’m just worried.”

The two then started their own little game on the couch. Delilah witnessed the whole exchange between the boy and the man.

Caiden has declared war. How will Larry defend his territory?

While watching TV, Joan couldn’t stop swishing her eyes onto her watch.

“Lucius, it’s time for bed. You still have school tomorrow.” She yawned.

“Mom, let me play for a little while more, please? We aren’t sleepy at all,” Lucius pleaded, going against her request.

What’s Caiden trying to do here? It’s already late. Why is he still hanging around the house? Joan slowly walked towards Caiden and tossed him a polite smile.

“Caiden, as you can see, it’s pretty late now. I think it’d be better if you head home now.” Her request was nothing but impolite.

That would be her first time asking a guest to leave.

Caiden instantly stood up, his face flushed with embarrassment.
