A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 1832

Nancy looked at her father in shock. When did Dad become so concerned about what other people think?

“Dad, we are the ones who live our lives. Why do you care so much about what the others think?” Nancy asked, baffled by her father's behavior.

Dad is not acting like his usual self.

Indeed, Simon had always been a straightforward, decisive man who had never faltered in his belief and actions. But things are different now.

The whole matter could affect Caspian's reputation as well.

It's already a shame for Caspian after his divorce from Nancy. If any rumors saying he got cheated

on by his wife starts...

Simon was a sensible man. He certainly understood how Caspian would feel if other people knew that his wife dumped him for another man. Therefore, he would not allow his daughter to do anything reckless during this sensitive period of time.

Furthermore, he would not accept Jory to be Nancy's boyfriend for now.

“Leave. I don't want to see that guy, Jory, in front of me. Take him away immediately. Also, if you have nothing else important to say, don't come finding me again.” Simon sighed.

After all, he knew that Nancy would come again to pester him to accept Jory next time.

“Dad, why don't you like Jory?” Nancy shook Simon's arm fawningly.

Frowning at her childish behavior, he could not help but raise his voice at her, “Nancy, stop.

You're the one at fault. Do you think that you can settle this matter on your own? Don't you realize how serious this is? Even if you're clueless, how could Jory not know about it?”

Nancy was taken aback instantly.

Seeing how cold and unrelenting her father was, she turned away in dismay and went to Jory.

“Come, let's go. We can come again next time.” Nancy looked hesitantly at the man in front of her.

Jory peeked inside, trying to see Simon, and remained silent.

Later that night, at a restaurant, Joan was happily having her dinner with Larry.

Today, we've finally got to spend some quality time with each other without the annoying third wheel—Dustin.

As they were chitter-chattering about trivial matters, Joan's phone rang all of a sudden. Seeing that it was Nancy calling, she answered the call promptly.

“Hi, Joan. Where are you? Can you come and drink with me? I feel like sh*t right now.” Nancy sobbed.

Is she crying? Joan was shocked.
