Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2198

Previously, when Larry had no time to eat, Joan's arrival would cheer him up. He would spend some

time eating no matter what. This time around, the dishes remained untouched. It was obvious that

he was mad.

Something had come between them. Still, there was no one to blame as they both were responsible

to keep their relationship going. Perhaps it was because Larry was too busy recently, or perhaps

Dustin and Caiden's interference was the cause. But there was no denying that Larry was furious.

“It's fine. You can explain to him later. He's not that petty. He'll forgive you after you explain

everything. Don't worry,” Delilah assured Joan.

Really? Is it that easy? Joan was afraid that Larry wouldn't even give her a chance to explain herself.

“Ms. Young, am I a bad person?” she blurted out suddenly, confusion clear in her gaze.

"What are you talking about? You're kind enough to take care of Caiden and caused a

misunderstanding. Don't worry. Larry's a generous gentleman. He will understand your intention.”

Yet, Joan didn't share her sentiments. Larry was a possessive man. He wouldn't allow other men to

lay a finger on his wife. His wife could only serve him alone. He might be someone with a machismo

mentality, or perhaps he simply loved Joan too much. Anyway, that was what he told Joan back

then

"Oh, what happened? Did your husband dump you?” Just then, a familiar voice mocked.

Joan knew who this despicable voice belonged to.

“Ms. Young, I'm tired. I'll return to my room now.” She turned to walk into her room.

"Hey, don't leave. What's wrong? Did I hit your nerve?” Noelle mocked. “It's too late to regret now.

You ignored your handsome and capable husband and insisted on getting close to another young

man. Ha! Look at how pitiful and miserable you are now.”

What is she saying? How dare she spout nonsense here?

“Leave. You're not welcomed here,” announced Delilah as she made to close the door.

"Wait, Ms. Young. I'm here to retrieve the plants. Your garden is locked. So I'm here to get the keys

from you,” Noelle answered.

Huh? When did I partner up with her? What plants? Nonsense!

“I don’t remember partnering up with you. Scram!”

"Ms. Young, you didn't partner up with me personally, but you signed a contract with my company.”

Delilah realized she had indeed signed a ten-year contract with a company in the city, which

required her to provide plants to them every year. Only five years had passed since they signed the

contract.

“Are you the company's representative?” Delilah scrutinized her doubtfully.

Noelle nodded arrogantly. “Yes, I'm here to retrieve the plants on behalf of my company. Are you

free to help Ms. Young to carry the plants, Ms. Watts?”

You want to stay away from me, right? Dream on! I'm going to make you work and insult you

harshly!

“No need. I can do that myself. Joan, didn’t you say you were feeling unwell? Go on and take a rest

in your room.” Delilah spun on her heels to go to the garden.

Joan hurriedly flashed a smile. “It's fine, Ms. Young. I can be of help.”

Ha! She's going to the garden! Noelle’s lips curved into a pleased smirk.

“Don’t worry. I'm alright.” Joan assured Delilah with a pat on her shoulder.

In the garden, everyone was busy while Noelle stood aside, glowering at Joan menacingly.

"Hurry up! Our company needs this as soon as possible. When will you finish if you move this slow?”

Noelle reprimanded.
