A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2628

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2628

Truth Or Dare

Though Caiden had half-expected this answer, he couldn’t help the sinking feeling in his heart at her brutal rejection.

“Mr. Owens, do you like Joan?” Abigail had appeared out of nowhere and was in gossip-seeking mode.

“It’s nothing like that!” Joan clarified the situation while nudging Abigail’s elbow.

Abigail’s enthusiasm shrunk after she saw the cold expression on Caiden’s face. She left in a rush.

“She was just kidding, you know. You shouldn’t take it to heart.” Joan tried to defuse the tension in the air.

“She’s right, though. I do like you a lot,” Caiden replied before taking a sip of his wine.

Stunned, she turned to avoid looking at him.

I’m just going to pretend I didn’t hear anything!

One by one, the staff began to amble back to the plush sofas. They were still laughing and playing around.

“Hey, should we play a game?” Abigail asked loudly.

Oh god, why does she want to play a game now? Joan appraised the staff who were sitting in front of her.

“I’m up for it!” One of the younger staff members supported her idea.

Soon, she was setting the stage for a drinking game.

“We’re playing truth or dare. I’ll go through the rules first.”

When she saw how excited everyone looked, she couldn’t bear to back out of the game and ruin the mood.

“Hey, Mr. Owens. Would you like to join us?” Abigail asked.

“How can you ask Mr. Owens to join you in such a childish game?” Abigail’s supervisor told her off.

“Why not?” Caiden suddenly said.

His agreement baffled his staff.

“Yay, the more the merrier!”

And so both Joan and Caiden joined the game.
