A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 1561

“Whats the matter? Is there something on my face?”

Larry's voice startled her out of her thoughts, and when she looked up, their eyes met.

“No. I was just thinking of something,” Joan replied with a smile. “Are you done with work? If you're not, you can continue. I have nothing to do, so I'm fine with just sitting here.”

She knew Larry was busy with his work, so she was understanding. Joan never insisted on Larry to spend more time on her, nor did she interrupt him while he was working.

Staring at him, Joan thought, is more than enough for me.

“I'm done. I was dealing with the Wards' matter earlier,” Larry calmly said.

However, his gaze was fixed on Joan, as if he could not get enough of seeing her.

“The Wards? What is it?” Joan queried.

She knew about Gabriella's incident. Although Gabriella now had a terrible life, Joan could not find it in herself to feel pity for her.

What goes around comes around.

For her not to hate Gabriella nor make her life difficult was already an act too kind from Joan. After all, what the former had done to Larry and her was almost unforgivable.

“Landon Ward called last night, asking for our forgiveness,” Larry continued. “He said this is all

Gabriella's fault and that he had lost his mind back then because of her words. Now, he knows that he's in the wrong, and he's hoping that we can forgive him. Also, he said he'll be compensating for our loss.”

“I see,” Joan muttered with a nod. “If this was all Gabriella's fault, should we forgive the Ward family then? They're already having a hard enough time.”

Joan knew what the Norton Corporation was doing to the Ward family.

Nevertheless, she did not think that there was anything wrong with what the Norton Corporation was doing. Since the other party was the one to provoke them, Joan thought it was normal for them to punish them in return.
