Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1620
"As a matter of fact, I do have a favor to ask you,â Larry laughed lightly as he continued
âWell, you can just tell me directly if there's anything I can help with. You've contributed so much to
the college; it's our pleasure if we can return some favor.â
Jesson laughed as he was glad to be able to help Larry as well.
"My wife, Joan used to study in Bainewich College as well, but she was severely ill back then and had
no choice but to drop out of college to treat her illness. She also didn't manage to complete her
studies. Now, sheâs hoping to return to college to complete her education. I wonder if you can help
fulfill this dream of hers?â Larry spoke very tactfully in a pleading tone. In fact, he knew very well
that Jesson would definitely help in this matter.
âHa, and I thought what a big deal it was. You can just be frank with me if that's what you wantâ
allowing your wife to continue her studies. That's nothing to be embarrassed about. Donât worry, I'll
arrange for that, and your wife would be able to come back to college soon,â Cordially, Jesson
answered. For him, it wasn't a bad thing to make Larry indebted to him at all.
"Oh, right, Larry, when did your wife withdraw from college? I can talk to the relevant professor right
away,â Jesson added.
âThank you, Jesson.â Larry replied appreciatively, âMy wife dropped out of college during her second
year."
âAlright, let me get to it immediately. Anyway, Larry, there's something you overlooked in this
matter. How can you not inform me of your wedding? Are you looking down on me?â Jesson
pretended to be displeased.
âJesson, that's simply not true. I was worried that you'd be occupied. That's the reason I didn't
trouble you with it. Well, why don't we have a meal together someday? Let Joan and I take you to
dinner to make up to it.â
Larry had met all kinds of people, so as he heard that from Jesson, he knew exactly what Jesson was
thinking.
"Haha, sure. It's settled, then!â
A few days later, they received news from Bainewich College that asked Joan to return to the college
before the new term started.
Joan had also been looking forward to receiving updates from Bainewich College lately. Hence,
when Larry got the information, he relayed it to Joan right away.
âJoan, I was informed by Jesson that you should return to the college before the new term starts
and prepare to resume your studies.â
"Oh, that's wonderful! I can finally complete my studies!â
Having heard the great news, Joan hopped all around the room with joy. âI'll pack up and get
prepared immediately!â
âDonât worry about that. Wait for me to come home, and let's go together,â Larry said as he was
worried that Joan would be forgetting and leaving things behind.
"Alright, Leslie is about to wake up soon, so I need to look after him as well. I'll wait for you to come
home, then.â
Giving him a sweet kiss over the phone, Joan hung up the call.
When Larry reached home, he helped Joan pack all sorts of necessities to be brought to the college.
Packing was easy. Their only problem was what they should do with their child.
I can't possibly bring him to attend classes with me. What if he cries?
Judging from their current situation, it wasn't possible for Joan to stay in the dorm. Therefore, Larry
bought a house near Bainewich College where they would be staying and also hired a housemaid to
help look after their child and manage the household chores.
As with Larry, he would be Joan's chauffeur to send her to and pick her up from college.
After arranging for all these matters, Larry and Joan were ready to bid Finnick and Vivian goodbye.
Bainewich College was located in Wildefield which was a long way away from Marsingfill. They
would have to wait till weekends or during the holidays when Joan had no classes if they wanted to
meet in the future.
Finnick was fine about them leaving and expressed his wholehearted support for Joan's decision to
go back to college and complete her studies. As for Vivian, her eyes brimmed with tears upon their
departure.
