Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2151

Forget it! I don't want to tell him about it. I can't trouble him over everything that happens! Dustin is

a very busy man. Not only does he have to deal with the supermarket, but he also has to handle

Norton Corporation. It's best not to disturb him. Besides, Larry doesn't want me to be too involved

with him anyway.

“No, what could I hide from you? Don't worry, they are just small matters. I'm leaving now, bye!”

Joan then turned to leave.

A cold glint appeared in Dustin's eyes as he watched her leave.

There must be something troubling her but she just didn’t want to say it.

Joan practically ran all the way to the hospital.

“Doctor, what happened to Caiden? Why would his condition suddenly worsen?” she was struggling

for breath as she asked.

"What are you talking about? What happened to Mr. Owens?” the doctor asked her in confusion.

“Didn't you call to say that his condition has worsened?” Joan asked.

“No, he is fine. If his condition had really worsened, the nurses would have come to me,” the doctor

answered with a shock.

What is going on? She suddenly felt very frustrated.

"Alright, thank you, Doctor.” Joan did not walk into the room but instead headed to the backyard.

How dare Caiden lie to me! Suddenly, anger rose within her heart as she went straight ahead for

Caiden’s ward.

Upon seeing her entering, Caiden asked, “Hey Joan, where were you? I'm in real pain here!” He

sounded rather upset.

How dare he continue to act this way?

“Alright, stop acting. I know what happened. Caiden, I think we need to have a chat,” Joan said

resolutely.

She didn't like to waste time and hated lies. Those pretentious moves had no impact on her

whatsoever.

She was already at peace with all that was happening with the world. Naturally, she did not like to

be involved with too many other people. Moreover, there were too many things going on in her life

recently.

“Joan, what happened? Are you upset?” Caiden asked softly.

Of course I am upset. Is it fun to lie to people? Does it make you happy to treat others like idiots?

Does the whole world revolve around you? Dissatisfaction appeared in Joan's eyes.

“How do you feel? If you are well, I'd like to treat you to a meal,” Joan said in a low voice.

What is she up to? Why is she suddenly treating me to a meal? Suddenly, Caiden felt rather uneasy.

“If you can’t make it, It's fine. Just stay in the hospital for a few more days until you are feeling

better. I have something on, so I'll leave first.” With that, Joan was about to leave the room.

"Hey, wait, Joan. I can leave right after I pack up,” Caiden shouted.

Joan let out a snort. God knows how many times has he used the same tactic to lie to me? Who

knows, he might have already planned everything and lay in wait for me to take the bait.

The dim lights and soft music in the scarcely-filled restaurant seemed to reflect everyone's mood

that was as gloomy as the rainy weather out there.

“Joan, why are you suddenly buying me a meal?” Caiden asked her quietly, afraid to look her in the

eye.

He really didn't know? He is probably just feigning innocence! Joan sniggered to herself.

That was simply human nature. In a complex society, one had to be sharp-witted to survive. A

college student who was innocent and kind would be tainted after stepping into society—not to

mention someone as intelligent as Caiden

“Tell me the truth, Caiden. What is your ulterior motive in approaching me?” Joan wasted no time at

all.

She did not have any time to waste on that person. At that moment, she was already very annoyed.
