Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2088
âI've heard about you from Joan. Thank you for saving her.â Larry took Caidenâs hand in response.
The two men instantly felt the warmth and force from each other's hands.
Heh. He's a pretty strong one! Larry smirked.
âIt's no problem. It's just something I should've done,â Caiden replied.
What a joke. She's MY woman. Any man who's ever helped her has my gratitude, but this is the first
time I've ever heard someone say that it's something he âshould've doneâ.
Yup, he's no regular guy.
Should I treat our handshake as a declaration of war?
"Oh, uhh... I should let you know that I just came back from abroad not too long ago. There are lots
of things I haven't familiarized myself with, so I'll be asking for Joan's help quite a bit.â Caiden spoke
confidently as though it was only natural that Joan helped him out.
Larry froze briefly before returning to his usual composed self. He would only appear too petty if he
were to look any different.
âThat's fine. I believe she'll help you out as a way of returning the favor,â replied Larry.
Of course she'll help meâas long as you don't get in my way, thought Caiden.
âCaiden! Come on in!" A woman called out from not far off.
"Oh, your girlfriend's calling for you.â Larry pointed to a car nearby.
Having looked her up previously, he knew that the woman was Noelle Ford. She had secretly liked
Caiden for many years.
âShe's not my girlfriend,â Caiden responded immediately.
Larry smirked with a hint of disdain in his eyes. It honestly didn't matter to him whether or not
Noelle was Caidenâs girlfriend.
âCome on, Caiden! What are you waiting for?â Noelle continued to cry out.
Caiden turned to glare at her impatiently.
"You should go. Don't keep her waiting.â Larry smiled intentionally.
"Hey, sheâs not...â
Before Caiden could finish, Larry had already left.
Why does this girl keep showing at the wrong time? How did she even know I was here? Did that
punk, Jaden, tell her?
Suddenly, his phone rang, and it so happened to be Jaden calling.
"Hey, Caiden... I have to tell you this. My sister's... gone looking for you. You'd better hide!â Jaden
stammered nervously.
âShe's already found me,â Caiden replied before immediately hanging up.
On the other side, Jaden froze.
We're screwed. Someone always gets hurt whenever those two meet. Forget it. I'd better save my
energy for when it's time to console one of them.
Meanwhile, Larry got into his car and headed straight for the village. Caidenâs face constantly
surfaced in his mind as he drove.
He could tell that Caiden was no ordinary guy; the latter probably had an influential background but
was merely hiding it.
"Hey, Caspian, use some connections and find out Caiden Owen's real background. The more
detailed, the better.â
"Haven't I sent you a copy?â
âI want his real information, not the fake background he used back in school!â With that, Larry hung
up.
Does that mean Caiden has two different backgrounds? Caspian scratched his head.
Ever since Delilah received her treatment, Joan's mood improved by the day, and the entire family
became filled with hope and determination.
âYou must be tired, Joan. I'm sorry for the trouble,â Delilah said with gratitude.
âWhat are you talking about, Ms. Young? Don't you remember how you used to take care of me
every day back when I was recuperating?â Joan smiled.
She was a sentimental woman, and she certainly knew how to be thankful for what others had done
for her. Joan knew that Delilah had a rich past; the latter had merely chosen to forget it. They were
both such piteous women, so they naturally understood each other.
