A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 1499

“Why would I be worried?” Joan's eyes sparkled with adoration at him. “I have the utmost faith that you, my boyfriend, is not some ordinary guy that they'll reject so easily.”

Despite her confidence in him, she still felt the need to warn him to be on his best behavior.

So she added, “But don't be too arrogant! My mom's not too fussy, but getting my dad's approval won't be an easy task.”

Larry's confidence soared as he bragged, “Relax. It's like you said, I'm not some ordinary guy. I'm sure Mr. and Mrs. Watts will love me.”

“Wow.” Joan rolled her eyes as she pouted, “I compliment you once, and now you're getting big-headed.”

Larry chuckled softly at her.

When Joan first met Larry's parents, he insisted that Joan didn't need to show up with a visiting gift.

However, now that it was Larry's turn to meet her parents, he prowled at every shop in the mall for gifts. Even Joan couldn't stop him.

“Okay, that's more than enough. You need to stop!” Joan ushered, but to no avail.

Larry's bodyguard, Caspian, had already made two trips to pack away the gifts into the car. Yet, he currently had various bags looped around his arms as he carried tall stacks of gift boxes.

“Just a little more.” Larry was unswayed by Joan. He continued to sift through gifts while ordering, “Caspian, take these back to the car. We'll be done soon.”

Caspian couldn't help but slump at this. “Sir, we should stop now since this seems plentiful enough.”

“Oh? Caspian, are you incapable of transporting the gifts? or is it because you think you know

better?”

Larry then shot a cold glare at Caspian, “Are you doubting my orders?”

“Never, Sir. Your word is the law.” Caspian forced a smile. You're the boss.

Larry scoffed before his focus begrudgingly returned to the infinite display of gifts before him.

“This seems like a good amount, right?” Larry eventually mumbled.

“Yes!” Joan hurriedly linked her arm around his.

“That's more than enough. Let's go, dear.”
