Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2003
The three of them arrived at the studio together.
âCome with me, let's get you all ready. You'll have to change into a bikini...â the staff guided Joan to
the changing room.
All of a sudden, Joan blushed at the sight of the bikini laid out for her.
âThere's no need to be shy. Relax, it'll be over soon. Besides, nowadays people are more open to
this kind of swimwear,â the staff prompted.
Soon, the three of them changed into their respective swimwear and began shooting.
âThat's it. Mr., please place your arm around your wife's shoulder. Stand closer to each other. A little
closer.â
âGood. Turn a little to your left. Mr., look at your wife lovingly. Yes, that's good...â
At that time, Lucius was so engrossed as he posed happily in front of the camera. He was totally
unaware of how uncomfortable Joan was.
âOkay. This is the last shot. Mister, please place both of your hands on your wife's cheeks. Now,
press your foreheads together..."
Both Joan and Dustin grew even more uncomfortable and embarrassed. After all, Joan was a
married woman.
âCome on, don't be shy. We are all open now in this day and age. Even married female celebrities
are fine with kissing scenes.â
"Come, I'll help you.â As he said that, one of the staff in front of him walked over to them.
With the staff's guidance, both of them stood so close until they were nearly pressed together. Just
then, not only Joan was embarrassed, but Dustin's face was flushed as well.
"Okay. Let's begin...â
Finally, after what seems like forever, they completed the shooting for the poster campaign. At that
time, there was a trace of sadness in Joan's eyes.
What will Larry think of this when he comes to know about it? Will he be jealous? Forget it. Why am
I still thinking about him? We're about to be divorced soon anyway. Joan shook her head and
sighed.
"Oh, look! Your shots came out really well! You guys look like a happy family.â A woman came over
and sang praises.
A family? We're definitely not a family!
âWe're not a family,â Joan said politely.
In an instant, the eyes of the woman dimmed, and she quietly backed off.
It was better to stay quiet than to continue on the embarrassing topic.
âIt turns out that they are not a family. Are you guys sure it's okay to shoot like this? Will it...â the
woman muttered.
âTake a look at this photo. His eyes are full of adoration for the woman. I'm pretty sure they'll
become a family soon. Don't worry about it. They're probably in the middle of a loversâ spat.â
But Dustin had overheard the exchange between the woman and Joan
She wasn't going to have a second husband in her life. A cold glint flashed across Dustin's eyes.
âMr. Dustin, do you like my Mom?" Suddenly, Lucius came running to him and blurted out that
question.
Why is he being so direct? Dustin tapped lightly on the child's forehead and smiled at him.
âDo you even know what it means by liking somebody?â
The child pouted, showing his displeasure.
âI know. Dad says that when you like someone, you'll think about her every day. You will miss her,
and you will want to protect her and take care of her.â
Dustin was astonished by Luciusâs remark.
âI'll like whoever who treats my Mom well,â the child uttered sensibly.
Dustin studied the child in front of him and thought to himself. He's really matured for someone his
age.
Meanwhile, back in the office. âWhat's happening?â
âI don't know. Is Mr. Norton fighting with Mrs. Norton? Will they be getting a divorce?â
âNonsense. They have a great relationship.â
A few colleagues were chattering away, and they were completely unaware that there was a silent
figure behind them.
âDo you think Larry is being cheated on?â
In an instant, the air in the room stilled.
The figure behind them gradually moved to the front. It was none other than Larry, and his face was
grim.
âGive it to me,â the man commanded.
The female colleague handed him the phone.
All of a sudden, a cold light flashed across Larry's eyes.
On the screen of the phone, it was a poster of Joan, Dustin, and Lucius. They looked like a family in
the poster photo. Joan was smiling shyly at the camera, and Dustin had a big grin on his face. Lucius
looked the happiest among them.
