A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2475

“You're absolutely right. I must say, I really admire your attitude,” the man complimented.

What exactly is happening here? Are they just two peas in a pod, or this man is harboring something malicious intent in his head?

“Excuse us, but she has had enough to drink for today. It's time to go home,” Joan said to the man and took over the wine glass from Jessica's hand.

“I'm not drunk. I'm still sober!”

The man looked at Jessica and thought she was a cute drunk, whereas Joan had begun to feel uneasy at the pair's exchanges.

“Are you sure you have had enough?” The man questioned.

“You got it, my friend. I've had a lot of fun today. Let's hang out again next time,” Jessica said while slapping hard on the man's shoulder. The woman then stood up and gestured at Joan to leave.

“Where are you going? Are you abandoning me?” The man cried after them.

“What abandoning rubbish are you talking about? It's getting late now, don't you need to go home?” Jessica turned around and yelled at the man as though he had asked the dumbest question.

Jessica was probably the only person in the world who dared to point a finger at a mobster boss and gave him a lecture. Joan shuddered at her friend's unruly manners, but soon composed herself, although she could not hide a glimpse of embarrassment in her eyes.

“Oh dear Lord. We should really go now,” Joan pleaded with Jessica.

“What Lord are you talking about, Joan?” Jessica lowered her head and almost tripped over herself.

“Why don't I give you ladies a ride home?” The man said while making his way toward them.

“That's okay, urn, Boss. I'm still sober, so I have no trouble getting us back home.” Joan immediately declined his offer.

“Boss? Who are you calling, Joan? I'm the boss who's going to take care of you from now on!” Jessica announced loudly while patted on her chest.

The man was thoroughly amused by what he had just witnessed.
