Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2400
Caiden Owens, how do you keep getting women to fall for you! What are they thinking when they
fall in love with someone like you? Joan exited Slone Enterprise as fast as possible.
âHow was it. Did you reach the recipient?â Delilah asked.
"Donât worry. Mission accomplished,â Joan answered with a victory pose.
âDid you get to meet Miss Slone? Why did she ask for you to deliver the bonsai personally?â Delilah
suddenly recalled.
âI did meet her. She was another one of Caidenâs admirers,â Joan replied nonchalantly.
Delilah immediately understood the implications.
It looks like things are going to get rough!
âIt's alright. You only need to stop contacting Caiden. If that doesnât work out, you should remarry
Larry as soon as possible. Your other option would be to hide somewhere for a while,â Delilah
proposed
Why do I need to hide, though? I didnât do anything wrong! Joan pursed her lips as she disagreed
with Delilahâs opinion.
âI heard Gabriella went to Luciusâ school,â Delilah shifted to another topic.
Her statement made Joan sat up straight, looking towards her with a serious expression. There was
fear in Joan's eyes.
"What was she doing there?â Joan asked.
âDonât worry. She had amnesia and lost most of her memories. She didn't recognize Lucius. She was
only there to do some charity,â Delilah assured.
Joan had heard about Gabriella's amnesia from Larry in the past. But she did not know if things were
still the same after so long.
âRelax. The child is fine, and everything is moving along swimmingly.â Delilah patted Joan's shoulder
and comforted her.
That being said, Joan was still worried that Gabriella would one day remember everything and made
things difficult for Lucius.
âMom!â
Lucius appeared all of a sudden.
"Oh? Why are you back so early today?â Joan caressed Luciusâ hair.
âThere are no classes this afternoon. Everyone attended a seminar,â Lucius answered happily.
âIs that so? What did the teacher say at the seminar then?â
Lucius went on to explain the content of the seminar about road safety. âOh! And I saw the lady
from a long time ago,â he added.
Is he talking about Gabriella? Joan pulled him tightly into her arms, and shivered a little.
"What did the lady do?â
âNothing much. She was talking with the principal most of the time. She seemed to have enjoyed it.
I don't think she remembers me.â
So it's true... Joan was relieved after hearing what Lucius said, and the tension in her eased.
"Okay then. Now go wash your hands,â Joan reminded.
âSee? I told you everything's going to be fine!â Delilah boasted.
Joan quietly nodded.
Sometimes, Joan would get extremely worried. She was afraid that people would get hurt because
of her, especially Delilah and Lucius.
âMom! Your phone's ringing!â Lucius shouted.
âI'm coming!â
"Where are you now?â It was Larry. âAre you at home?â
âYeah, I'm home. What's up?â Joan responded in a soft voice.
âWould you like to go catch a movie tonight?â Larry continued.
What's this? Is this a date? That's so unnecessary! We're adults now and we have a long way to go
âNo, thanks. I want to spend some time with Lucius.â Joan answered.
Larry was astonished to hear that, even though he had mentally prepared himself for it.
âWhat's wrong?â Delilah came in.
âIt's nothing. Larry just wanted to go watch a movie.â
Silly you. Why did you reject him? This is a wonderful opportunity!
âJust go. I'm here, so you don't have to worry about Lucius,â Delilah said to her.
