A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2391

“It's nothing. Grandma asking you to give her a hand at the garden. That's not necessary anymore. I'll be enough help,” Lucius answered as he skipped and hopped away.

Before Joan could give chase, Larry's hand stretched out and grabbed her wrist, pulling her back into his arms.

“Larry, stop fooling around. I need to go to the garden.”

“Lucius already said that you're no longer needed,” Larry quickly refuted.

However, Joan was not in the mood for Larry's pampering because of Dustin's departure.

“Alright. I'll go and do the laundry then,” she said as she flung Larry's arm to the side and left.

Larry did not know why Joan was acting so cold, but he had a vague suspicion that it had something to do with Dustin.

“Joan, what's the matter with you?” Larry went straight at it.

He did not want to see her sad, nor did he want to see her in a bad mood.

“I'm fine.” The conversation they were having was awkward, to say the least.

At the office. “Larry. Now that Dustin's gone, when are you and Joan remarrying?” Caspian asked quietly.

His question made Larry stop what he was doing. Larry did not know the answer because Joan did not give him a proper response.

That's right. She has not agreed nor has she rejected his proposal.

“Why do you ask?” Larry questioned.

“Larry!” Jessica barged without any warning.

“What are you doing here?” Caspian was not too happy about seeing her. Jessica stopped in front of him and inspected him for a moment, disdained. Why can't I be here?

“I miss Larry!” she answered.

The sheer determination in her tone made Caspian feel like his confidence had been crushed.

“Nonsense!” Larry raised his head and took a glance at Jessica.
