A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 3004

But there he is, going to Lisa's place every day. If this goes on for long, there's no way Jessica wouldn't know about the woman he's hiding. No, I can't let him marry her. No one knows for sure who the father is.

Sitting on the couch, Joan crossed her arms and huffed in exasperation.

All of a sudden, Jessica came into the living room. "I wonder who's the one that makes you so pissed off, Joan."

Crap! Did she overhear what I said just now? "Hi, what brings you here tonight?" Joan immediately rose to her feet and welcomed Jessica before casting a worried glance at Larry, who was sitting at the side.

"If I were not here, I'd probably miss out on seeing your angry expression," Jessica said light-heartedly.

Then, she turned to Larry and placed her hands on her hips, feigning a stern expression. "Larry, did you bully her? If you dare to bully Joan, Nancy and I will hunt you down, you hear me?"

She did not mention Abelyn because Jessica no longer considered her as their bestie.

Upon hearing her, Larry raised his gaze and glanced at both of them with a smile tugging on his lips. Without saying anything, he then stood up and headed to the study.

"What happened? Are you alright?" Jessica inquired, scrutinizing Joan's face.

Truth be told, she had heard what Joan said a little while ago. It was just that she did not want them to worry about her, so she chose to

pretend that she did not hear anything.

Besides, she wanted to check the matter between Caspian and Lisa on her own. I don't believe Caspian would do such a treacherous deed.

"I'm fine. Anyway, you're here for..." Joan's voice tapered away as she looked quizzically at her.

"I haven't seen Caspian for the past few days. I'm a bit worried, so I came here to ask you and Larry his whereabouts," Jessica replied.

Since I'm here already, I'll have to continue putting on an act. If I tell Joan that I'm here to ask her to go shopping together, it wouldn't sound convincing.

Racking her brain to think of an excuse, Joan avoided her gaze and rubbed her neck awkwardly. "Oh, Caspian. Uh, Larry asks him to handle some projects, so he is busy with work recently."
