A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2749

Ring! Ring!

Joan's phone couldn't stop ringing the whole day.

“Joan, what happened? Who did you offend?” Nancy asked anxiously over the phone.

“I never offended anyone?” Joan tried her best to explain.

“Someone must be out to get you. Joan, don't worry, with us around, we won't allow you to suffer!”

Joan ended the call helplessly. Not long later, it was Jake who called with an insidious tone. “Joan, congratulations, you are famous now.”

Joan was cognizant of what he was insinuating.

Not in the mood to argue, she plainly thanked him before preparing to end the call.

Suddenly, Jake uttered in desperation, “Don't end my call yet.”

What does he want now? Joan held up her phone impatiently. She didn't end the call but neither did she say a word. All she did was wait to hear what Jake had to say.

“Tell me, were you trying to avoid me when you left the country the last time?” Jake got straight to the point with an icy tone. However, he wasn't able to hide his inexplicable nervousness.

Without a doubt, the answer was yes.

“Jake, can you not be so full of yourself?” Joan replied in a cordial manner.

“Just tell me yes or no.” Jake sounded upset.

“No,” Joan answered resolutely.

“Really?”

“Yes!”

Jake was skeptical of her answer. After all, she didn't do anything while being overseas.

“Do you remember what I told you before? It will always apply...”

Joan understood what Jake's twisted thoughts about her were. However, she would never agree with what he suggested.

“Jake, don't contact me anymore.” With that, she ended the call.

She really is cruel. Staring at his phone, Jake's gaze darkened dramatically. He was filled with rage as he clenched his fists.
