A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2719

“Our kitty will only settle for the highest quality of cat food...” Joan mumbled softly while slowly running her hand through the cat's fur.

“Well, well, well... If it isn't Joan Watts!”

A familiar voice came from behind, and Joan shuddered in terror when she turned around and saw the man before her.

What's he doing here?

“Long time no see, Joan!” Jake greeted her as he made his way toward her.

Heh, it really has been a long time... Joan snorted and shot him an icy-cold glare.

She had thought she was safe from his clutches by fleeing overseas, only to have him send Della overseas to go after her.

Unbeknownst to Joan, Jake was overseas as well when Della held her hostage. However, the three of them had escaped from the log cabin by the time he got there that night.

“What do you want?” Joan asked coldly and cautiously.

“I just came to say hi, that's all!” Jake replied with a nonchalant shrug.

Is that so? I seriously doubt it's that simple! Joan took her eyes off him and gazed at the cat in her arms affectionately instead.

“How's life?” Jake asked playfully.

“It's all right,” Joan answered firmly.

Like hell it is! I nearly lost my life a while back! Dustin clenched his fists as he stood next to her and waited for Jake to say something.

“Where have you been lately? I've missed you so much.”

Jake's words had Dustin looking at the both of them in confusion.

What the hell is going on here?

“Mind your language, Jake!” Joan reminded him coldly.

Even with everything that has happened, this b*tch is still acting all high and mighty?

“What? This is how I always have been.” Jake's response was as calm as ever.
