A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 1462

The next day, Joan left without leaving a single word to Larry. And from then on, there was no news of her. Heartbroken, Larry's personality underwent a drastic change. He then went abroad to study. When he returned to the country, he inherited Norton Corporation and became the company's president.

Initially, they thought that their lives would be like two parallel lines without ever intersecting again after breaking up, but destiny had brought them together once more.

When Joan subsequently returned to the office in a daze, she notified another staff member to contact Norton Corporation. She then tried her best to forget everything that had happened that day, but his image and the wonderful memories of the past kept playing in her mind on a loop no matter how much she tried shaking

them off.

At the end of the day, I still can't forget him. But alas, he's no longer mine.

Meanwhile, Larry sat in the chair in his office with his hands clasped against his forehead as he thought about everything that had happened earlier.

Similarly, his emotions were a chaotic mess. After that woman left me, I once spent my days in a drunken stupor and led a licentious life. I thought I'd forgotten about her entirely, but I only realize that I merely buried her in the deepest part of my heart. Once I came into contact with her, our memories burst forth like water rushing out of a dam, rendering me unable to resent her or be angry at her anymore.

Having struggled for a long while, he picked up his phone and rang up Opulent Designs.

“Hello, this is Larry Norton here. Tell Joan Watts to come to my office tomorrow. Otherwise, don't even dream of getting the contract from me.” After hanging up the phone, the corners of his mouth lifted a fraction. “Hmph! I'll make your life a living hell, Joan Watts!”

“What? Larry... no, I mean, Mr. Norton asked me to go to his office to collect the contract? W-Why me?” Joan's eyes almost popped out of the sockets when she learned of that. After confirming it with the other person multiple times, she finally accepted it as the truth.

She had no desire to face Larry, but she was left with no other choice since it was the first huge project for the company and would yield longterm benefits to the development in the future. As one of the staff, she had no reason to decline.

“I'm just going over to discuss the collaboration, so don't think about anything else, much less mention anything irrelevant!” After convincing herself for a long time, she finally mustered up her courage to go over to Norton Corporation once more.

When she again returned to Norton Corporation, she felt as though she was standing at the gates of hell.

Well, there's no other choice but to face it head-on! Firming her resolve, she strode in as though she was going to her death.

Knock, knock, knock.
