A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2774

“Ungrateful witch! You are nothing but a heartless murderer!”

In the blink of an eye, Joan was falsely labeled with countless defamatory titles.

I'm not an ungrateful witch; I'm not a heartless murdered Joan sank to her knees with her head clutched in her hands as she whispered to herself. Their ferocious faces and loud hollers caused Joan to stiffen in panic as she gasped for air. Additionally, it felt like she was being suffocated by their murderous glares.

Joan could not control the chaotic situation that erupted around her. In the midst of the mayhem, she found herself desperately longing for Larry. Yet, her lover was not by her side.

Bang! All of a sudden, a few youngsters began to pelt the flower shop with rocks.

Seeing their behavior, a flash of unadulterated fear began to grow in her eyes. What should I do? Anxiously, she paced back and forth in front of the counter.

“Come out!”

“That's right, hurry up and show yourself!”

As more time passed, the horde outside the shop grew in size. Their frenzied yells seemed to rise in pitch too. Yet, not a single person stepped up to defend her.

“Stop it!” Joan heard the echo of a familiar voice.

Dustin!

Joan's worried expression relaxed after she saw his figure outside her shop.

“I'll lodge a report if you continue to wreak havoc.” Dustin threatened whilst he pulled out his phone and pretended that he was about to make a call.

“How hilarious! Go ahead and call the police.

They won't detain us. Instead, they will capture the culprit - Joan Watts,” the crowd hollered in retaliation.

In an instant, the crowd erupted back into chaos.

These people were utterly despicable! Dustin glared at the crowd before him with clenched fists. Seeing their reckless behavior filled him with rage. It was clear that the incident hadn't been settled yet. How could they try to shift the blame and point their fingers to accuse Joan? Is it because that the security in this area was poor? Or is it due to their lack of moral values?

Dustin felt a stab of disappointment and helplessness when he stared at their rowdy antics. After all, he was aware of his own strengths and limitations. He wouldn't be able to help Joan at all. However, he could not stand by idly whilst they attacked her.

“Leave this place in an instant!” All of a sudden, a man emerged in front of everyone.
