A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 1763

Simon rubbed his forehead in mock annoyance. “Because you're the only one who comes in without knocking on the door.”

After closing the door and locking it, Nancy sat in front of her father, all prim and proper. When she realized he was too immersed in the pile of documents on the table, she willfully snatched them away from him.

“Is your daughter not as important as these papers?”

Simon sighed loudly. “Very well then. What brings my precious daughter here? But please, keep it short.”

Nancy held the documents against her chest as she stared at her father. “I'm getting a divorce.”

Like her father requested, Nancy had gone straight to the point, leaving Simon in a state of bewilderment.

“What? A divorce? Did I hear it right?

“You heard right. I'm getting a divorce.”

“Why?” Simon's frown deepened as he continued, “Was it something Caspian did?”

“It's not him. It's something that I've done.”

Simon was even more confused now as he gazed at his daughter. “Nancy, please tell me, what have you done?”

“One of the reasons I want a divorce is that the person I had let slip in the past is now back. But the main reason is that I don't love Caspian anymore. I can't see myself living with him any longer. Two people should be together because they're compatible, not because they're constantly accommodating the other.”

“Someone you had let slip?” Simon mumbled to himself. “I don't recall you ever talking about other boyfriends. Isn't Caspian your first love?”
