A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2554

There really is no helping her. Why does she need to unnecessarily complicate something that's really simple?

Dustin, when will you ever wake up! Staring at him, Jessica was tempted to give him a slap despite knowing how inappropriate it would be.

“I'm out of ideas. I did everything I could,” Jessica lamented on the office sofa.

When he saw how dejected she was, Caspian knew that her persuasion had failed.

“What did Larry say?” she asked.

“What else can he say? He'll probably continue to wait,” Caspian replied.

Given how both of them are dragging their feet, they really are made for each other. Jessica sighed.

As Larry had intensified his efforts at work, Norton Corporation's expansion made it the top conglomerate in the city. In second place, was the company owned by the Owens family.

“Mr. Owens, congratulations.”

“That's right. It's really unbelievable for someone as young as you to have expanded your business overseas. You have already exceeded the achievements of your predecessors.”

During the banquet, many elderly businessmen surrounded Caiden, trying to ingratiate themselves with him.

“Thank you for your kind wishes. Nevertheless, there's still a lot more for me to learn from all of you,” Caiden replied at once.

At that moment, Caiden's parents were delightfully lapping up the crowd's praises of their son.

“Does Caiden have a girlfriend? That's my daughter over there, do you see her?”

“That's right. What kind of girl does your son like? Isn't it about time he got married?”

When Caiden's mom saw him toasting and socializing from afar, she felt a sense of pride.

Finally, the Owens family has a worthy heir. ’’Why don't you introduce your son to my daughter...”

In one corner, Larry was sitting by himself, looking lonely.

He never enjoyed such events but couldn't avoid them for fear of jeopardizing business relationships.

“Larry, don't you want to talk to them?” Caspian suggested.

What's there to talk about?Business?There no need for me to talk to that hypocritical bunch. Relationships?We don't even have a relationship to speak of.
