A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2978

Chapter 2978

Fred went on and on to explain the reason Larry was dispatched, yet Della couldn't be bothered to listen anymore.She felt a strong urge to meet Larry in person to sort things out once and for all.

Why has he been keeping me in the dark? Why did he choose to bear such humiliations? Couldn't Dad settle the issue himself? "Dad, why did you ask him to resolve the company's issue? Why couldn't you make the trip?"

Della turned around and confronted Fred.

Actually, Fred had dispatched Larry abroad on his behalf because he wanted those in the industry to get familiar with him.

After all, it was only a matter of time before Larry inherited the company.

Fred shook his head and heaved a long sigh.

If his useless daughter were half as good as Larry, he wouldn't have taken such an extreme countermeasure.

Coughing, Fred repeated his instructions, "Hurry up and set Joan free! Also, stay away from her in the future!"

Wait! Joan's meal has been spiked! Oh, God! Please tell me she hasn't consumed any of those! Immediately after she retrieved her phone, she made a call and instructed, "Stop spiking Joan's meal and get her something else to eat! If anything happens to her, all of you will have to bear the consequences!"

The moment she hung up the call, she headed in the direction of the entrance, praying that Joan was doing fine.

It's all my fault! I shouldn't have schemed against them before knowing the truth! Please allow me to atone for my sins, Larry! At that moment, Della's leaving figure seemed so pitiable.

Meanwhile, Joan couldn't endure her hunger any longer.

When she was about to savor the meal she had been served, a man barged into the room and knocked everything onto the ground.

"Ms.Watts, please don't consume any of those! We'll be serving you something else soon!"

He lifted her up and brought her back to the couch before switching on all the sources of illumination available in the room.

Joan grasped her shirt and muttered in a barely audible voice, "I-I'm so hungry...

"We'll get you something to eat soon.Please hold on for another few minutes."
