A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2265

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2265

Larry seemed somewhat embarrassed by his son’s question. “I guess so. She’s been tired recently. Let me check on her.” Upon saying that, he stood up and headed to the bedroom.

“Joan, are you alright?” he spoke as gently as he could. But in Joan’s eyes, his gentleness was to no avail anymore.

Surprisingly, Joan responded, “I’m fine. I want to nap for a while.”

She finally responds!

Larry could not suppress his excitement. “Joan, about last time, it was all my fault. Please don’t overthink things. I…”

“It’s fine. I could care less.” Joan did not let him finish his sentence.

What does she mean it’s fine? Does she mean she no longer cares for me? At that moment, Larry was at a loss. Has she given up on me?

“Joan, I feel like I should explain things to you. That day, I went out with Jessica…”

“Larry!” Out of a sudden, Joan gave a loud shout and sat right up on her bed.

The man’s heart skipped a beat at her loud voice as she had never shouted at him like this.

“Yes?”

“Larry, can you stop trying to explain things? I don’t want to hear it. I am exhausted, and I want to rest. Can you leave me alone?” Joan begged desperately while her eyes brimmed with tears.

But I want to talk to her. Why won’t she give me a chance to properly explain things on my end? At that instant, Larry’s eyes darkened and his face devoid of expression.

“Fine. I will leave you alone.”

Joan rubbed her forehead to ease her headache and then laid down again, trying to clear her thoughts.

“Dad, is Mom alright?” Lucius was waiting in the living room when Larry exited the bedroom, concerned about his mother.

“Yup, she’s just tired. She is asleep now.” Larry comforted his worried son.

Joan did not come out for dinner that day. Neither Larry nor Delilah went to wake her up. They knew that it was best to leave her alone during this period.
