A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2310

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2310

Caspian knew how ridiculous his question was but he had to hear it from the man himself. As long as Larry stayed with Joan, Jessica would have to stand down, which would allow Caspian to woo her.

“I think what you’re trying to ask is if I’ll be with Jessica in the future?” Larry clarified Caspian’s question.

After some hesitation, Caspian admitted it.

“Don’t worry. First, I’ll never divorce Joan. Second, there’s no way I can ever be with Jessica. Are you satisfied with that?”

Without a doubt, Caspian was more than satisfied with Larry’s answer. Gone was the anxiety he felt earlier; he was exuberant again.

Knowing Larry was a man of his word, he felt even more hopeful about his future with Jessica.

“Happy now?” Larry asked.

“Happy.”

“Very happy?”

“Very happy.”

“Then why aren’t you going back to work? Do you want to work overtime?” Larry suddenly yelled.

“Oh, right! Sorry, Larry. I’ll go back to work now!” Caspian muttered as he ran out of the office.

Larry smiled after Caspian’s retreating figure. What a big goof. Why did he even think I’d snatch the woman he loves? His smile was soon wiped away as other thoughts came into his mind.

I wonder what Joan’s doing now. Have I gone too far earlier? He felt more guilty the longer he thought about it. He only wished Joan could be more aware of keeping her distance from those problematic men. If she had, neither of them would be suffering now.

The park was bathed in warmth and joy as people went about their activities. A group of elderly people was enjoying a yoga session while children were running around, playing with their pets. Everything seemed so heartwarming and peaceful; the only fly in the ointment was Joan. She was seated on a bench in a corner of the park, quietly sobbing away.

“Miss, are you okay? Why are you sad?” asked an elderly woman as she went up to Joan.

“Oh, it’s nothing.” Joan hurriedly wiped her tears away and tried to regain her composure.
