A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2510

Della held her chest high and asked, “What if he chooses me at the end of the day? Are you going to be upset?”

Joan answered the confident woman's query, “It's inevitable to be upset, but time will heal. One day, I'll move on from him and our relationship.”

She was determined to move on from him should he choose to put an end to their relationship. No matter how deeply in love she was, she wouldn't try to force things her way. Others might consider her a heartless woman, but she was a firm believer of those who truly loved her would never hurt her.

“Great! I hope you won't try anything silly like other women out there when the day comes!”

What kind of joke is this? I may not be a match for you, but I can still uphold my promise!

“Don't worry. If Larry chooses you at the end of the day, I'll leave both of you alone,” Joan enunciated her reply.

They carried on with the conversation in a calm and collected manner as though it wasn't a big deal at all. Things were never awkward between them.

Caspian, who was in Larry's office, urged when it was time to get off work, “Larry, it's about time for you to head home.”

“Alright.”

On his way home, Larry made up his mind to tell Joan about everything going on between Gabriella and him once he was back.

The moment he stepped into the foyer, he asked,

“Ms. Young, where's Joan?”

She replied, “She's not back yet.”

Where could she be? Upon a simple glance at his watch, Larry noticed it was already late in the evening. He reached for his phone and made a call, yet he couldn't get through to her.

He asked anxiously, “Ms. Young, has Joan mentioned anything prior to her departure?”

“Huh? She's just out for a stroll. I think she's going to be back soon.”

In the meantime, Joan was lying on the beach, enjoying the gentle breeze and the sound of the waves with her eyes closed.

Dustin approached her and asked, “Aren't you heading back yet?”

Joan replied, “Nah, I don't feel like heading back.”

“Why don't you inform them that you won't be heading back? Otherwise, they're going to be worried about you.”

Joan turned around and looked at the man next to him. She picked up her phone and scrolled through the contact log.
