A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2390

Damn it, Dustin! How much more brutal can you get? First, you tried to destroy Norton Corporation and my career Now you're trying to take Joan away? It looks like everything's planned out!

“Joan Watts!” Larry roared, staring at the man and woman that were approaching the doorstep.

Joan jolted on Dustin's back but quickly resumed her unconscious state, closing her eyes once again.

“She's drunk,” Dustin explained. So? You're the one that made her drink so much.

Larry was certain that Joan was not the sort that would easily drink outside. She knew how low her alcohol tolerance was. There was only one explanation for her being in her current state, and it was the doing of the despicable man in front of him.

What happened here?” Delilah came out to help Joan into her room. “Why did she drink so much all of a sudden?”

While Delilah moved Joan to her room, Dustin was in the living room. He took a glimpse at Joan's room before looking at Larry. Then, he shrugged with a smile on his face and got ready to leave.

“I heard you're leaving the country?” Larry spoke. His voice was unnaturally loud.

“That's right.” Dustin's answer was brief yet firm.

“I hope you'll behave yourself,” Larry added. Dustin snickered when he heard that, immediately leaving the living room.

Truth be told, he had been behaving himself all those years. Now, Dustin only wanted to live his life without being shackled by rules and etiquette. We don't live that long. It'd be a shame if I don't enjoy life while I'm young. I don't want to have only painful memories to remember when I'm old.

Dustin responded with a “Thank you” and left without looking back.

The next day at the airport. Dustin was alone with his luggage, taking in his surrounding for the last time, trying to remember everything in this city. He could still see Joan Watts' silhouette, engraved at the back of his head.

“Have a safe trip!” Jory exclaimed as he popped out in front of Dustin from nowhere.

Jory, his one and only buddy, was the only one who came to send Dustin off.

Dustin made it clear with the employees that the farewell dinner was their last meeting. He did not want them to come to the airport as it would only make things more sorrowful.

“Thanks. You take care too," Dustin replied, smiling.
