A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 1831

Nancy stared at Joan and Dustin skeptically.

“Uh... I've got something to do, so see you guys next time!” She quickly snagged her handbag to leave.

“No!” Joan and Dustin swung their gazes at her in concert.

“Nancy, didn't you ask me out to give you some suggestions? Sit down, and we'll talk about it. Just ignore others, for irrelevant people are simply annoying!” Joan asserted in a deliberate bid to snub Dustin.

At that, Nancy looked at her in confliction.

Dustin has never offended me in any way, so isn't it rather unreasonable to ignore him at this time?

“Don't worry, Nancy. Just tell me whatever problem you're facing, and I'll resolve it for you.” Dustin patted his chest confidently.

Oh God, what's going on here? Nancy clutched her head with both hands, a tortured expression on her face. I can't afford to alienate either of them, what with Joan being my best friend and Dustin being dory's best friend!

“Well, this matter has nothing to do with you, Dustin. So, just go about your business,” Joan growled without sparing his feelings.

Good God, she's actually throwing a tantrum just because I asked Larry to treat me to a few lunches! Is this necessary? When did she become so petty?

“Of course, it has something to do with me! Jory is my best friend, so his problem is also mine.” Dustin showed no signs of backing off.

As Joan stared at the man before her, she was gripped by the urge to punch him in the face. But in the next second, reason had her stifling that desire.

“Fine. Since you're so smart, you come up with suggestions. I'm not going to say a single word further.” Joan turned to gaze out the window with fury written all over her face.

“Fine by me! Listen here, Nancy...”

Subsequently, Dustin started speaking eloquently at length, from her relationship with Jory, their married life, and Jory's personality, to how they could curry favor with Simon, and so on.

At the side, Joan was taken aback.

Hmm... never had I expected him to actually know that much.

“Dad!” Nancy hollered before she had even stepped into the house.
