Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2264

“That's why I think Joan is really upset now. You should go and talk to her.”

“I don't think so. Joan isn't the petty type, alright? She trusts Larry fully. Most probably, you are the

one who overthinks,” Nancy responded without much care.

Caspian grew fed up with her carefree attitude. She's behaving exactly like Jessica! No wonder

Jessica mentioned that she likes her.

“Please go and check on her, just in case!” Caspian could no longer hold back his anxiousness.

"Wow. Caspian, are you raising your voice at me? How dare you? Are you over your head because of

Jessica?” Nancy provoked deliberately, discontent with his attitude.

Caspian was evidently into Jessica, but it seemed too soon to assume that they would end up

together.

"Alright, 1 got it. I will leave shortly.” Upon saying that, Nancy hung up the phone abruptly.

The media nowadays is truly corrupted. How could they publish such a rumor without confirming its

validity?

Once again, Nancy turned on her phone and made a call.

"Where should we meet? Okay. I will go there after work. Yeah, I miss you too. It has been so long.”

It was Joan's voice at the other end.

Joan was not surprised by Nancy's sudden invitation, as she figured the latter most probably wanted

to persuade her to trust Larry. However, deep down in her heart, all these were unnecessary

anymore.

Right after work, Joan headed to a restaurant.

"Hi, Joan. Long time no see. Shall we have a drink together?” Nancy greeted her with a friendly

smile.

Joan immediately voiced her concern. “I don't think that's a good idea. Aren't you pregnant?”

“Joan, what are you talking about? I meant coffee. Did I say wine?"

In an instant, Joan's face reddened from embarrassment.

During that hour, the restaurant was relatively peaceful as there were not many customers. Even the

upbeat jazz music from the day shift had been replaced by some melancholic cello pieces.

“Joan, I have always been a straightforward person. Since you're here, I will get right to the point. I

have heard all about you and Larry. I want to say that I know him well enough to know that he is

not..."

“Nancy!” Before the woman could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Joan.

“It's been ages since we last met. Let's not talk about this today,” she begged in an earnest tone.

Gazing at the pale and vulnerable woman in front of her, Nancy could not help but show

compassion. Fine. Let's give her a break and talks about something happy.

"Okay then. Why don't we go shopping after we grab something to eat?”

“Can your body bear it? Won't it be too tiring for you?” Joan hesitated.

“Joan, you're underestimating me. Don't worry!” Nancy patted her own chest confidently.

The situation is trickier than I expected. I don't understand why Larry did not push Jessica away

when she kissed him.

However, little did they both know that Jessica had been extremely inebriated during the incident. If

Larry had not held her, she would have collapsed to the ground.

“Joan, would you like to name my baby?” Nancy grabbed Joan's arms and suggested playfully.

That sounds like a difficult task. Joan cast an awkward smile at her.

"Don’t you think it is better to leave the naming to the grandparents? Or maybe you could wait for

me to search through some books for great name suggestions.”

“Sure, no problem. Come on, let's go to the lady's department!” Nancy waved her hand towards

Joan.

After they shopped for a short hour, they parted, and Joan headed home. The moment she opened

the front door, she saw Larry waiting for her on the couch.

"You're back.” Larry greeted her quickly, but he was ignored by Joan, who walked right into the

bedroom.

“Dad, is Mom okay? Is she not feeling well?" Lucius, who was playing in the living room, felt that his

mother’s behavior was strange.
