A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2092

What is she afraid of?Why would she have to lie if nothing actually happened between them?

“Joan.” The atmosphere tensed up as Larry walked toward her.

Does he already know? Joan glanced at him anxiously, trying to avoid his gaze.

“I have things to deal with at work, so I'll be leaving now. I'll leave Ms. Young to you.” The man left right after saying that.

Joan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Delilah watched the entire ordeal, clearly aware that Joan had lied.

Silly girl. You're such a bad liar, but you chose to lie right at Larry's face. It's no wonder he's mad!

“Did you really drop by Nancy's place?” asked Delilah while drinking some milk.

“Huh? Yeah, I just got back from there,” Joan responded diffidently.

“Seriously... Why aren't you telling the truth?” Delilah shook her head.

Joan felt awkward. That's because I don't want him to misunderstand melBut how did she know I was lying?

“You knew, Ms. Young?” Joan gazed at her, full of curiosity.

“Of course. Do you have any idea how many times Larry called you? He was so worried, and yet you still lied to him after coming back here. You went to Caiden's place, didn't you?” Delilah looked out the window in a slight daze.

Despite seeing Joan as her own daughter, the older woman spared no effort in pointing out anything she didn't agree with.

So he does know. He just chose not to talk about it. Joan felt a little upset. Then, why didn't he ask me about it instead?He wasn't like this before.
