A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2277

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2277

“How is Lucius?” Joan asked, raising her head.

“He keeps talking about you and Larry during dinner and wishing for you to go home.”

In the blink of an eye, Joan was overwhelmed with a sense of guilt.

“Please give me some time to take everything in, Ms. Young.”

She couldn’t muster up the courage to face Larry’s disloyalty, nor to face any other man. She knew she had to talk this out with him, but she needed some time to gather her thoughts.

“Alright, I’ll wait for you. Lucius is doing well, so don’t worry about him too much. The most important thing is that you take good care of yourself, remember to eat your meals daily, and also go for a walk from time to time. Staying indoors all day is unhealthy for you,” reminded Delilah.

She understood very well how hard it would be for a woman to recover from a bout of sadness, and how many times Joan must have cried after that incident.

“Oh? Hello there, Ms. Young,” Dustin’s voice suddenly called out as he walked in.

Why is he here? Delilah stared at him in confusion. From the way he changed his shoes to slippers and how he stored them away, she could tell that he knew this place well.

“Do you come here every day, Dustin?” she asked.

“Nope. Joan stopped me from coming back here a few days ago, but I wanted to drop off some groceries,” Dustin hurriedly replied. “I figured that she should have run out of them by now.”

So he had been the one looking after her all this time.

How could this be? What if Larry found out?

“What’s going on here, Joan?” Delilah clutched Joan’s arm.

“Nothing’s going on. Dustin is just concerned about me, as you can see.” Why does everyone assume that she and Dustin are having an affair?

“That’s not it, Joan. You’re currently stuck in a sensitive phase in your relationship; you shouldn’t be interacting with other men this intimately. What would Larry think?”
