A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2622

As Larry and Della were currently collaborators, he naturally preferred not to stand her up.

“Y'all can decide,” Larry said.

He pushed the responsibility outright unto

Jessica.

“I'm sure you won't mind. Wouldn't you, Ms. Zimmer? Della turned back and asked.

How could I not?l totally opposed it!

Jessica gritted her teeth in annoyance.

“It's rather unfortunate that you aren't fond of spicy food, Ms. Duff, because I've already made a reservation at a restaurant that specializes in it!” Jessica said.

“That's okay. I could just rinse it down with a bit of water,” Della replied.

Is she being serious?Could she not tell that she's not wanted?

Jessica's eyes twitched at the other woman before she turned and stormed out.

What an adorable girl. She really busted her brains coming up with excuses not to have me come along! Della smiled smugly before she walked up to Larry.

Inside the private room, the orders were already tabled by the server. As mentioned, all the dishes were of the spicy variety. That was, of course, intentional on the part of Jessica.

“I'm so sorry about this. These are all Larry's favorites,” Jessica said purposefully.

Larry turned sharply and regarded Jessica in surprise.

Though subtle, the gesture was sufficiently picked up by Della who had her eyes on Jessica all this time. She merely smiled without comment.

“Don't push yourself, Ms. Duff. If these dishes aren't suited for your palate, you could always go and eat elsewhere.” Jessica gloated as she ate.

You need to do better than that trying to get close to Larry, you stupid woman! Buzz off if you don't have it in you!

Jessica shot her a look before she shoveled a slice of beef into her own mouth.

“Of course not. I do think that these dishes aren't half-bad,” Della replied as she ate.

Jessica was stunned.

“Umm, I would say that they're actually quite delicious.” Della nodded in approval.
