A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2255

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2255

It’s just an affair. Don’t sweat it. Nothing is more important than having my own source of income. Joan assured herself inwardly while bustling about.

“Don’t worry, I’m fine,” she said to Dustin.

The man raised an eyebrow disbelievingly. Yeah, she seems really calm, but I bet she’s having an emotional breakdown on the inside. Staring at the woman in front of him, he felt his heart ache for her.

I know Joan too well. If she has a choice, she’ll never show her emotions on her face.

“Joan, I’m here for you if you ever need anything. You can always rely on me.” Dustin gently patted her shoulder.

In an instant, a warm and fuzzy feeling shot through Joan.

In retrospect, I’m really grateful for Dustin’s companionship over the years. If it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t have understood many things in life.

“Okay, sure,” she nonchalantly replied as she kept her head down,

A few colleagues gazed at her with worry written all over their faces.

All this while, they thought she and Larry respected and loved each other deeply. Never had they expected Larry to have an affair.

“Men are just unreliable, so women have to learn to make money themselves. Otherwise, who is going to fend for us if we get a divorce?” one of them babbled on.

“Stop talking. She’s already feeling sad,” another employee whispered.

Throughout the day, Joan wasn’t in the right frame of mind. Yet, no one blamed her. Dustin even got someone else to redo whatever she had done.

There were many employees in the supermarket, mostly married women. Hence, most of them could put themselves in Joan’s shoes. They were normally very friendly to her, treating her as their biological sister.
