A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2553

“Nothing, just reading the papers,” Caiden answered.

The moment she heard his reply, she quickened her pace and snatched the paper away from him.

“There's nothing interesting to see there. Come, go shopping with me,” she suggested on purpose.

“I have something to do, so I'll need to go first.” Just as he spoke, he picked up his phone and left the Owens family villa.

Is he going to see Joan? Behind her, was someone watching with a concerned look.

“What is it? Where is he going?” Keith walked out of the study and asked softly.

“He says that he's tired and wants to go out for a stroll,” she quickly replied.

Looking at the silhouette from afar, Keith had his suspicions.

After leaving the villa, Caiden gave Joan a call. He wanted to invite her out for a chat but was rejected.

“Where are you? I'll come and see you,” Caiden asked.

“Don't come. I'm not free and there's nothing to talk about between us.” Just as she spoke, Joan ended the call.

However, he knew that Joan was on the brink of mental collapse. Hence, he went to see her still.

“Are you sure that's what you want to do?”

Caiden asked softly.

He didn't expect her to forgo her own feelings for Dustin's sake.

“What else can I do?" Joan snapped without looking at him.

Regardless of what happened, Dustin was bedridden because of her. There was no way she could be at peace in a relationship with someone else.

“Joan, both of you are just friends. He ended up this way because of an accident. There's no need for you to blame yourself over it,” Caiden continued to counsel her.
