A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 1547

“Not yet,” mused Larry. “Whoever was behind the assault wanted to harm us, yet at the same time not wanting us to be dead. Clearly, they're afraid of being dragged into this matter if we did die.”

This would mean whoever was behind the attack would benefit from my injury. If I were to lose an arm and had to be admitted to the hospital for some time, the administrations of Norton Corporation would be all over the place.lfso, who would benefit from it?

The wheels in Larry's brain kept turning as he went through the names in his memory, eliminating those he believed to be innocent. In the end, he zeroed in on the most likely suspects.

The Wards or the Johnsons!

The more Larry thought about it, the more possible it seemed to be true. In fact, he was almost convinced that it was them behind the events that night.

“No worries Boss, I'll take care of it,” declared
