A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2129

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2129

Does he have to be so serious? Jessica’s initial good mood was immediately ruined, and she pouted unhappily.

Sure enough, Larry threw himself back to work soon after. Jessica sat on the sofa and stared straight at the man not far away from her, feeling dissatisfied.

“Hey, you haven’t eaten yet, have you? Let’s go for breakfast together then,” she tried again.

“No, thank you. I’m not hungry,” he flatly refused.

Jessica suddenly noticed the paper bag on the table.

“What’s this?” She brought the paper bag over. Larry glanced at it and came to a sudden realization.

Joan came here last night? He peered into the paper bag to see all of his favorite food.

Snatching up his phone, he immediately dialed her number but hung up after merely two seconds.

It’s too early. She’s probably not awake yet, right? Forget it. I’ll call her a little later. Larry dropped his phone back on the desk.

“Can I try some?” Jessica asked in a small voice.

“Sure,” Larry replied succinctly, then brought some over to her before returning to his desk and continue flipping through some documents.

“Mm, it’s quite delicious. Who made these for you?” she prodded.

In truth, she already had her suspicions. She could practically taste the love in the food. Who else could have cooked this besides his wife?

“My wife.” Larry’s response came immediately, a smile playing on his lips.

So what if he’s married? That puny fact is not going to stop me! Jessica’s eyes gleamed with determination.

“Ms. Zimmer, if you’re free tonight, I’m not against having a meal together,” Larry suggested out of the blue.

Since he couldn’t escape this, he thought he might as well take the initiative and settle his business matters first.
