A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 1316

Two drops of bitter tears trickled down Jaxon's cheeks, and his face was a mask of utter despair. Hethen sneered, seemingly in self-derision, mocking his own incompetency.

I had such a glorious life, but why didn't I appreciate it? I had such an amazing wife and daughter, so why didn't I cherish them? And I had such wonderful freedom, yet why didn't I value it? Why... just why?

All of a sudden, he was enlightened and understood the things he failed to cherish in life before this predicament. However, it's all too late! I don't have a chance to turn over a new leaf anymore, and I'm about to lose everything I have!

At that precise moment, his cell phone rang with a call from Fabian. Jaxon languidly answered the call, for he was now completely disheartened and had no hope left.

"I'm aware of the turn of events, Mr. Norton. I really thank you for having lent me a hand. Although we failed this time, I know you were truly sincere in helping me..."

Before he could finish speaking, Fabian cut him off, saying, "Who told you we have failed?"

Upon hearing that, a glimmer of hope flickered across his eyes, but it was gone in the next instance. "You don't have to lie to me, Mr. Norton, for I already know everything. I'd like to say that I'm really honored to have had a friend like you..."

Fabian was rendered speechless for a moment. What's he going on about? Why does he sound as though he's bidding me farewell? Nonetheless, he then declared, "I've already had her blocked in on Falcon Bridge heading to Denville Airport. Hurry up and send some men over, or I really won't be able to control the situation." "Huh? What did you just say?" Jaxon's eyes went wide when he heard that, and it was as though he had been revived from the dead. "Are you serious? You're not lying to me, are you?" he asked in disbelief.

"Decide for yourself whether you want to come over!"

Fabian then hung up the phone in aggravation. Is he crazy to ask me that question in such a critical situation? I've only sent a dozen or so men to rush over and barricade the road with four cars stopped horizontally. Meanwhile, the road is filled with people rushing to the airport, so the situation will be chaotic beyond words!

"Oh my God! I love you to bits, Mr. Norton!" Jaxon hollered excitedly.

Then, he immediately contacted a nearby police station and had them dispatch some officers over to help Fabian.
