A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 2932

As soon as Clara said those words, Johann was stunned. It was true that he had deliberately told Clara everything to see if her impression of Joan would change, but he now realized that he was the one who had been overthinking after seeing his mother's reaction. With that, he felt a weight lifted off his chest.

In truth, he had a crush on Joan but was not courageous enough to confess. They were practically still strangers, after all.

"Tell me, son. You have feelings for Joan, don't you?" Clara quipped as she tugged on the corners of his shirt.

"Must you be that blunt, Mom?" Johann blushed.

Oh my. He still gets shy even at this age. Well, now we just have to wait for Joan to agree. My son is handsome, has a great personality, outstanding, and overall, just perfect. There's no way she'll reject him.

With that thought in mind, Clara stared at Joan's villa with a satisfied smile.

Back in Joan's house, the woman in question suddenly sneezed loudly. "Achoo!" That's weird. Is someone talking about me? She sniffled as she rubbed her nose, feeling a bit uneasy.

Right then, her phone suddenly rang, and Jessica's name flashed across the screen. "Hello, Joan. Have you been doing okay lately? How's everything at home?"

"I'm fine. Don't worry," she replied. She had been taking good care of herself. From time to time, she would also hang out with Clara. However, there were times where she would find herself missing Larry.

"Joan, I need to tell you something. You should be wary of Johann. I have a feeling that he has an ulterior motive for approaching you." Jessica seemed like she was just gossiping, but her voice carried a hint of seriousness.

What motive could he have when we barely know each other?

Joan scoffed. "Stop making wild guesses. We're only neighbors and nothing more."

Is that so? Despite Joan's answer, Jessica still felt uneasy. Ever since her first meeting with Johann in Joan's villa, she had sensed something was off, but she kept it to herself.

"Who are you talking to?" Larry appeared out of nowhere.
