A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 1479

“Joan? Joan, are you alright?”

When he saw how Joan had stiffened up, Dustin's heart was filled with bitterness.

“Joan, the plane is about to leave. It's time for us to board,” Dustin reminded her.

Joan regained her senses. “No... no! Dustin, Larry is in trouble. I have to see him! I have to!”

“What about me then? Don't you want to go to A Nation with me?” Dustin pleaded desperately.

“I'm sorry, Dustin. But I can't leave with you. I can't let him go. He is everything to me!”

Joan finally faced the truth, admitting it to both Dustin and herself.

“I know you like me. But, there's no space in my heart for anyone else. I'm sorry, I can't go to A Nation. Even if I can't treat my sickness, I still have to know what happened to him.”

Dustin sighed. No matter what he did, Joan's heart was always shut to him.

Even if she leaves with me, her heart still belongs to him.

Dustin felt overwhelmingly dejected.

Nonetheless, he wasn't a stubborn man. As such, he smiled at Joan, and without any hesitation, he said, “It's alright Joan. I have known for a few years now that there's someone in your heart. It's just that I thought I could replace him. But now, it seems the gulf is too wide to be bridged. I wish both of you all the best.”

When he finished, he gave Joan a smile of relief.

“Joan, forgive me for lying to you. In truth, your sickness no longer needs any further treatment. I hope we can still stay friends and see each other in the future. I will be going now.”

After looking at Joan longingly, Dustin steeled his heart and headed toward the boarding gate.

After sending Dustin off, Joan hurried out of the airport, screaming hysterically in her heart. Larry, please be alright!

Immediately after Larry's car accident, some good Samaritans called the City Hospital in Zaprington. Soon, an ambulance arrived before sending Larry, who was unconscious, and the truck driver together to the hospital.

Right before the accident, Larry was speeding and speaking anxiously over the phone. Hence, he didn't notice a truck traveling at high speed around a bend, causing both their vehicles to

crash into each other.

Luckily, Larry reacted in time by jamming the brakes. Given the top-notch performance of his Lamborghini and the fact that the airbag deployed in time, Larry escaped largely unscathed.

The moment Joan left the airport, she hailed a cab right away.
