A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 1915

A few roughnecks ran over at the bald man's order.

Joan was dumbfounded in that instance.

“Mrs. Norton, are you alright?” Out of the blue, the man ran up to Joan and helped untie her.

“Larry...” She fainted even before she could finish her words.

At the hospital.

Joan was lying in bed with her eyes closed. The back of her hand was attached to a saline bag. Larry held her tightly by the hand, his face full of remorse.

“Larry, don't worry. She only suffered some minor physical wounds,” said Caspian to comfort Larry.

“Shut up!” The latter lashed out directly.

The other man grew silent in an instant.

“Joan!” Out of nowhere, Delilah barged into the room.

“How is she? Is Joan alright?” Delilah's voice seemed to be trembling.

Awakened by the noise, the woman lying on the hospital bed opened her eyes slowly and looked around her.

White walls, white ceiling, white bedsheets, and a white blanket. It looks like the hospital...

Sitting up slowly, it was at that moment that Joan realized she was drained of all energy.

“Joan, don't move. Tell me what you want. Let me help you with it,” Larry hurriedly stated.

“Err... It's alright. I only want to drink some water,” Joan replied in a weary voice.

Upon hearing that, Larry quickly poured a glass of water and handed it to her.

It looks like I haven't died yet!

A smile crept up on Joan's face.

Being able to see Larry is such a wonderful thing. Joan slowly ran her fingers across the man's cheek.

“Mr. Norton, Mrs. Norton, since you're both well, we shall leave first,” the bald man suddenly spoke.

“Hold on!” Joan called out weakly.

The bald man turned around swiftly when he heard her cry. He looked at Joan attentively.

“Thank you. Thank you for saving my life...” The woman enunciated each word with her last ounce of strength.

The bald man smiled and waved his hand, and he then left directly.

Larry turned to look at Caspian suspiciously, which prompted the latter to run over to Larry's side.
