A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2829

Della was baffled by Joan's response and expression. Has she... lost her memories? Upon that realization, the former's eyes widened as she studied Joan carefully. "Joan, don't you know me?"

"No, I'm afraid that I don't."

Della stole a sigh of relief. This actually works in my favor. There's no way she will let me in if her memories are intact.

"That's alright. I'm a good friend of Jake's. We've met once, but you've probably forgotten," Della said while inviting herself into the yard.

Whoa... This is such a beautiful place! Looks like they're having the time of their lives. Things are just getting better and better for me!

"Please take a seat. Jake is at work at the moment. I will let him know when—"

"That's okay. I'll give him a call later," Della cut her off abruptly.

For some reason, the woman's unannounced visit stirred up a sense of apprehension in Joan. She shook her head, trying to shake off the unsettling thought from her mind.

Joan invited Della to sit on the sofa, where they started chattering away awkwardly. The sole purpose of Della's visit was to ascertain that Joan was residing at Jake's residence. Her mission had already been accomplished the moment Joan answered the door.

"Joan, do you remember a man named Larry?" Della asked carefully.

Larry? Who? Joan shook her head.

It seems like the odds are still in my favor! She has even forgotten the love of her life! Well, just her luck. Della secretly stole a curt laugh.

"Who is he? Should I know him?"

"Oh, no. He's a total jerk who used to pick on you all the time. It's better if you don't remember him," Della lied effortlessly.

Is that so? But his name doesn't sound so bad. Joan contemplated the name.

Meanwhile, when Jake was in his office, he was notified of Delia's visit to the villa. "What? Della went to the villa?" That devil of a woman, what does she want now?
