A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2785

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2785

The Kiss

The shrill ringing from the cellphone on the table disrupted everyone’s thoughts.

“Why did you leave so early, Joan?” Abelyn did not sound particularly pleased.

“Yeah, I had to go as I’ve got something on later. By the way, could you come get Dustin?” Joan said.

After she ended the call, Joan went about cleaning up Dustin’s wounds.

“Ouch…” Dustin pursed his lips and looked to be in some pain.

“Does it hurt?” She asked in concern.

“It’s fine.” He shook his head before looking askance at Larry.

Larry remained as inanimate as he ever was.

That drew a sigh from Agatha before she went over to him. She placed a gentle hand on his shoulder before she produced a bottle of ointment. “Come, allow me.”

“No need for that!” came his frosty reply.

“There, there. We can get this done very quickly,” she said as she lifted his arm.

“I said no!” The bottle was sent flying across the floor.

His violent reaction stunned Agatha.

“Why don’t you take a rest, Ms. Wainscott, and let me handle this,” Joan said with a smile.

Bang! The door was flung open.

“What’s going on here?” Abelyn howled as she bulldozed in.

“Oh my gawd, Dustin. What happened to you?” A bewildered Abelyn rushed over to Dustin and held a hand over her mouth.

“Help him put some medication on, Abelyn,” Joan said as she passed along what was in her own hand. She then briskly made her way over to Larry and looked upon him tenderly and sympathetically.
