A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2630

I guess she really chose Larry in the end. Caiden got up slowly to leave.

“Caiden!” Delilah suddenly called out.

“Thank you for sending her home,” she said with a smile.

“It's fine,” he answered placidly.

“Have you been well?”

Somehow, Caiden lost part of his warm demeanor in the presence of this old lady.

“I've been well,” he replied nonchalantly.

Sensing his awkwardness, Delilah cut the pleasantries short and sent him on his way.

“Larry, I missed you so much!” Joan mumbled from where she lay on the bed.

“Joan, do you want some water?” Larry asked while he stroked her forehead.

“Larry!”

She flipped around and hugged him tightly around the waist.

Recognizing the familiar scent and warmth of Larry's body, she tried to burrow closer into him. She mumbled his name over and over, almost purring like a kitten in his embrace.

After spending some time staring at the full moon outside the windows, Larry eventually fell asleep.

The next morning, Joan woke up to the sight of sunlight streaming in through the windows. She stretched lazily and felt around for Larry. She smiled when she discovered he was still in bed.

“Are you awake?” He cupped her face in his hands before giving her a soft kiss on her forehead.

“Yeah,” she answered softly. She hooked her arms behind Larry's neck and stared at him.

“Where did you go last night? Do you remember anything?” Larry probed while stroking her hair.

Last night? We had a staff dinner, right? Joan wrecked her brains trying to recall last night's events.

Damn it, I think I was drunk last night.

“Erm, I drank last night,” she confessed awkwardly while scratching the back of her head.

And then what happened?” Larry asked.

Nothing, right? She stared at him in confusion.
