Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1652

Joan called a female team member in the design department to ask her to bring the unfinished

design drawings to the hospital. She thought she could force herself not to think about Larry by

being occupied with work. The team member agreed to her request right away.

However, her final year project was left in Nirhaven College. She couldn't think of any of her

classmates who would be willing to bring it here. Am I really an ill-mannered girl who has no

friends?

As she pondered over it, she felt even more out of sorts. Then, she covered her head with the

blanket and forced herself to take a nap. Suddenly, someone arrived and knocked on the door.

Since she thought that it was her team member, she said while still hiding in the blanket, “Please

come in."

"Is that Lyla? You can put the design drawings on the cupboard on the side. Thank you for bringing

it here.”

Nevertheless, that person didn’t reply but came up to Joan and put his hands on the blanket near

her head. Joan knew that they weren't a woman's hands.

"You can leave it there. Thank you.” Joan felt bewildered and pulled the blanket tighter.

“Ahem...”

Joan shivered as soon as she heard him coughing.

Dustin was amused as Joan sprang up from the bed. On the other hand, Joan heaved a sigh of relief

when she realized that it was Dustin.

“It's you... I thought. it's my colleague.”

"Do you feel better because it's me?” Dustin's smile was still as warm.

Upon hearing it, Joan felt uncomfortable and recalled that he grabbed her hand when she tended to

his bruises in the past. It became extremely awkward as both of them fell silent.

After a while, Dustin took the initiative to break the silence. He took out something from his back

and presented it to Joan like a treasure.

“Look!”

Joan saw a pile of papers before her. Apart from her design drawings, Dustin had also brought

along her final year project.

Joan's eyes beamed as though she saw some precious treasure. She immediately took the papers

and said surprisingly, “My god! I never expected that you would bring these to me. Dustin, you can

really read my mind! How did you know that I wanted to get my final year project from campus?

Besides, you even brought the design drawings from my company! This is incredible!”

“Initially, I went to your company to visit you but bumped into your colleague who wanted to bring

the documents to you. Since I thought you would need the final year project, I decided to bring

everything here. I hope... you won't be mad at me for doing it.”

As Joan flipped through the page, she replied smilingly, “I won't. In fact, I'm grateful for your help.”

Dustin shook his head helplessly and replied, “Well, it looks like I'm not as attractive as the

documents.”

Joan was amused and said, “Alright, why don't you take a seat?”

Dustin grabbed a chair and sat next to her bed. “By the way, you haven't told me why you're

admitted to the hospital? Are you sick? How serious is it?"

“Er... I'll be embarrassed whenever I explain it. When I visited Leslie, I fainted at the doorstep

because of anemia.”

Dustin picked up an apple on the cupboard and began paring it. “Since you're a workaholic, I guess

you must be exhausted due to stress at work.”

Meanwhile, Joan had taken the pen that was clipped on the documents and began sketching. “It's

not a big deal, actually. I can be discharged anytime.”

Dustin replied as he threw away the skin of the apple, “If you really can be discharged anytime, why

are you doing your work here?”
