A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2433

“Hi Ms. Young, is Lucius home? Can I talk to him?” requested Joan carefully.

“Lucius, your mom is looking for you,” shouted Delilah.

“Where are you, Mom?” asked Lucius immediately. He sounded worried.

“I can't go home just yet. Lucius, are you okay? Are you in shock?” asked Joan.

“Not at all. Don't worry, Mom. I'm a big boy. Still, why aren't you home yet? I'm so worried about you,” said Lucius sadly.

Joan felt touched upon hearing those words. At that moment, she thought that everything she did till then was worth it.

Meanwhile, Larry was working away in his office, for some reason, Norton Corporation had been dealing with a lot of issues lately. All that stress was made worse when Joan got hurt, and he was feeling a little tired.

I'm so glad to have Jessica helping me out by taking care of Caspian and Joan.

“Larry,” greeted Jessica as she entered the room.

“What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be in the hospital?” asked Larry immediately.

“Everything's fine at the hospital, so don't worry. How are you? Have you eaten?” asked Jessica, a hint of worry shining in her eyes.

“I'm not hungry,” replied the man nonchalantly.

He hasn't eaten all day. How is he not hungry? What? Does he think he is? A machine? Jessica walked over and placed a container of food on his desk.

“Joan and Caspian had already eaten, so I came to deliver this to you,” said Jessica.

“Thank you for everything,” said Larry. He had shifted his gaze to her and his eyes were filled with sincerity as he spoke.

Even though she had sacrificed and spent a lot of her free time in the hospital, Jessica never regretted that decision.

When she was at her lowest and weakest point, Larry had stayed by her side and never abandoned her. He patiently consoled her and helped her even when it caused a rift between him and Joan. It even got the entire world to misunderstand him. Hence, she would not give up easily when it was her turn to step up because Larry needed her.
