A Touch of Sweetness novel Chapter 1821

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1821

“No. Stay.” Larry pulled her back and pinned her to the bed.

His rapid breathing and palpitations made her blush almost instantly.

“Stop…”

Before she could continue, he planted a kiss on her thin lips.

He continued to pry her lips open, shoving his tongue into her mouth as he explored every inch of her mouth with his tongue. After some time, the couple fell asleep once more.

The sun continued to rise, and a colony of seagulls flew past the window.

“Dustin!” Joan called out when she caught sight of her friend from afar.

Upon seeing the expression on her face, Dustin knew she had made up with Larry.

Well, I should be glad she’s no longer upset. It pained my heart to see how disheartened she was.

Dustin finally came to a realization.

He used to be obsessed with Joan and would always want to protect her and give her everything at all costs. But he had finally learned to let go. At this point, he desired nothing more than to see a genuine smile on her face.

“Someone seems to be in a good mood today.” Dustin chuckled.

Joan gave Larry a nudge.

The latter awkwardly looked at the man in front of him.

It was uncommon for Larry to apologize to anyone. Yet today, he had to seek his love rival’s forgiveness. He was not ready to bite the bullet just yet.

“What are you waiting for?” Joan patted his shoulder gently.

Is he going back on his word?

A line formed between her brows at the thought. She glared at Larry, hoping he could keep his promise.

“I… I… Erm…” Larry walked up to Dustin hesitantly.

“I…”

That’s how he reacts to my sincere apology?

“All right, all right. Since Dustin has forgiven you, let’s go and grab something to eat.” Joan held onto Larry’s arm and dragged him along in a rush.

“Have you solved that problem in your company?” Dustin looked at Larry and questioned curiously.

The latter responded in a calm voice, “All matters have been settled.”

The tension he had with Dustin seemed to have eased a little after the meal to a point where Larry wondered if he was dreaming.

Day after day soon flew by. Larry and Joan took the remaining time they had together overseas before they got on a flight to return to their country.

Larry had needed to fly back soon as there were some urgent matters he had to look into.

“Where are you going?” Joan asked.

“I’ll be back before you know it. Don’t worry.” Larry turned around and shot her a small smile before he headed out.

Gabriella was excited to meet Larry after the latter asked her out to a café. “I’m so happy to see you, Larry. What’s the occasion you called me out here for?”
