A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2890

Sometimes Abelyn couldn't help but wonder. Why are there so many women who want to be with Larry?lt's true that he is handsome and outstanding in every aspect, but there are plenty more fish in the sea. Larry isn't the only brilliant man on earth, so why are they so adamant about being together with Larry? Caspian is an exceptional man. Even Dustin is amazing too!

At that thought, Dustin's smile flickered across the back of her mind. Abelyn felt her blood rising to her cheeks. She was starting to believe she had truly fallen for Dustin.

Joan, on the other hand, had long known Abelyn's and Dustin's feelings for each other.

"Joan, let's say there are two really, really close friends. Best friends, if you may. Do you think there's a chance for them to be... I don't know... a couple?" Abelyn lowered her voice as she asked sheepishly.

The rhetorical question was enough to capture Joan's attention. Oooh, someone's finally getting struck by Cupid!

"Of course, there's a chance! Why wouldn't there be? Human relations have always worked in an enigmatic way. That being said, it is rather common for friends to turn lovers," explained Joan in a gentle manner.

Hearing Joan's answer, Abelyn's face blushed even redder.

Bang! "Come out! The one called Watts, out! Now!" Suddenly, a man slammed the door open and hollered towards the two women, startling them both. Joan and Abelyn sneaked a glance at each other. What's going on?

Abelyn inched towards Joan, keeping the latter close to herself, terrified of what awaited Joan behind the door.

"Are you f*cking deaf? Watts, come out immediately!" Seeing the women not moving, the man thundered again. Only when Joan regained her senses did she realize he was asking for her.

"What do you want from her? If there's anything you want, take it out on me!" retorted Abelyn, still guarding Joan with her.

The man was starting to get impatient. With huge strides, he marched towards the two women, grabbed Joan by her arm, and yanked her towards the door. Out of nowhere, the man let out a scream of anguish, "Argh! You b*tch!"

The man tried to tear his leg away from Abelyn. Abelyn, on the other end, kept her teeth clamped firmly onto his leg, refusing to back

down.

Thud! With brute force, the man swung his legs, sending Abelyn flying across the room and hitting the wall. Abelyn clutched her arm, her face twisted in agony as she groaned. That cruel b*stard! How dare he! Joan was fuming.

"Abelyn!" Joan turned her gaze towards the woman crouching at the corner. As their eyes met, Joan shook her head slightly, signaling the other to not act rashly. That was the last Abelyn saw of Joan before the latter was taken out of the room.
