A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2339

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2339

It was getting colder. Larry could not help but shiver when a gust of wind blew past him. Watching the dazzling headlights from the stream of vehicles, he was suddenly filled with a sense of helplessness.

“Sir, do you want some candy?” a boy offered.

Squatting down slowly, Larry looked at the boy seriously.

“You can have it. I’m not hungry.” He smiled for fear of scaring the boy.

“Are you sad? When my mom’s sad, she’ll get Dad to tell her a story. You can call your partner and ask her to tell you a story. Then you won’t be sad anymore,” the boy suggested playfully.

Although it was some nonsensical words of a kid, Larry felt sad.

My partner? She’s lost. I wonder if she’s lost her way, or if I lost her.

“Sure. You need to be a good boy at home, okay?” Larry smiled while patting the boy’s head.

“I’ve always been good. My grandma said that I can only marry a good girl in the future if I’m good.”

The conversation warmed Larry.

“Baby, what are you doing? Come, we’re going home!” a woman shouted.

“Coming,” replied the boy.

Then he reminded Larry, “Mister, don’t forget to call your partner and ask her to tell you a story. Otherwise, you’ll be very cold.”

The latter smiled when he saw the boy turned around and made a funny face.

Afterward, he pulled out his phone and launched his contact list.

He finally convinced himself to dial Joan’s number after a long hesitation.

“Joan, your phone’s ringing!” the girl, who was on the bed, shouted in the bathroom’s direction.

“Who is it?”

“Larry!”
