A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 1807

Speaking of Larry again!

Gloom spread across Dustin's eyes when he heard that man's name.

“There's nothing else we can do right now. It's not like we can just camp outside however we like, and I don't think any more cabs are operating at this hour.”

Joan looked around at the empty road, feeling vexed at how his statement rang true.

Before she could make up her mind, a woman barged into the hotel. “Are there any rooms available?” she asked.

Dustin shot Joan an anxious look.

“Excuse me! I thought we already reserved the room?” The former darted over to the receptionist, wearing his brightest smile.

The receptionist looked at the dashing young man before her and smiled.

“I'd love to give the room to you, but your girlfriend hasn't agreed to it,” she stated, shooting a pointed look at Joan.

“It's fine. We'll take the last room,” Dustin replied swiftly.

The woman who had just come in glared at him from the corner of her eyes and left in a huff after hearing his reply. Joan still had not figured out what her next course of action would be.

“Are you coming, Joan? I've already booked the room. Stop thinking about Larry already. You can explain everything to him after this. Yes, I like you, but it's not like I'll do something to you

without your consent,” Dustin muttered.

It was true that he had his designs on her, but he would never force himself on her.

Joan silently made a vow. I promise I'll explain everything to you when I see you, Larry

A flicker of worry gleamed in her eyes at the thought of what would happen.

“Come on, let's head up,” Dustin said, squatting down again in front of her.

Meanwhile, Jory was having a difficult conversation with Gabriella. “Mr. Synder, don't you think you owe me an explanation?” the latter demanded.
