A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 1867

“Go on, then. I got this. Don't worry!” Delilah replied.

After all, Larry was her future business partner; she wouldn't mistreat him.

Selena glanced at the breakfast on the dining table and hurriedly grabbed a boiled egg before running out.

“Joan, Joan, don't go!” Larry moaned and sat up suddenly.

Delilah watched the newly awakened Larry but said nothing.

“Ms. Young?” Larry gazed at the woman before him, feeling slightly confused.

“Hmm, you're awake? Here, have some water along with this medication for your fever,” Delilah said at once in a level tone of voice.

Larry felt comforted gazing at the elder woman.

“Was it you who rescued me yesterday? Thank you for that,” Larry said.

“It wasn't me. It was Selena who rescued you,” Delilah replied quickly.

At the sound of this unfamiliar name, Larry felt curious. How did she manage to move me here?

“It rained heavily last night. Selena was on her way home when she saw you lying on the road,” Delilah answered lightly. “She carried you on her back and walked all the way home.”

Larry suddenly started hacking. It seemed like the rain yesterday had made him ill.

Did Ms. Young mean to say that I was carried back here by a woman?

Larry's interest in Selena was suddenly piqued.

“Where is she now? I would like to thank her,” Larry said.

“There's no need. She's currently at work, so it's best not to bother her,” Delilah answered gently.

Larry's eyes dimmed. But she is my savior!

“Mr. Norton, you were late last night,” Delilah suddenly changed the topic.

Larry was taken aback. Though he had an accident last night, it was still no excuse for being late.

“Ms. Young, it was my fault for failing to keep our appointment. I could have called or texted ahead, but I didn't. That was an error on my part. Please accept my apologies,” Larry said sincerely.
