Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2531

Afraid that she might wake the man on the bed, she got up slowly and picked up the coat beside

her, planning to sneak away.

“Leaving so early?” came Dustin’s groggy voice.

“It's late already,” Joan replied awkwardly.

Dustin rolled off the bed and offered, “Where are you going? I'll take you there.”

“No need for that. Uhm, I can walk there myself. You should go back to sleep!” Joan hastily rejected

It's already unacceptable that we slept together on the same bed. I can't get involved with him

anymore!

Damn it! Who was it who kept forcing me to drink last night? She knocked her head lightly, trying to

clear the fog in her mind.

"Stop it. You're already not that bright. What if you become dumb by knocking your head like that?”

“Last night, nothing happened between us, right?” Joan blurted out.

“What? You're really gonna pretend nothing happened?” Dustin raised his brows.

What does that mean? Did something really happen last night? Mortified, Joan stared at the man in

front of her with horror in her eyes.

Calming herself, she continued, “Dustin, this isn't a joke. I'm being completely serious right now.”

"Are you saying that you weren't serious last night?” he asked.

This jerk! Why isn't he making any sense? Panic rose his Joan's chest.

“Last night, did we...” she trailed off as anxiety gripped her.

Should I tell her the truth? Dustin was in a dilemma.

If 1 lie to her, will she leave Larry and come back to me? He hesitated.

“Dustin! I'm asking you a question!” she snapped.

“Alright, alright. Don’t worry, I won't hold you accountable for it,” Dustin lied.

In an instant, Joan plopped down onto the sofa by the side, a look of disbelief on her face.

Oh no. It seems like something did happen last night!

But I'm obviously still fully-dressed! She turned to eye the man suspiciously, hoping that he could

tell her the truth.

Of course, Dustin knew what she was thinking. However, he merely shrugged his shoulders

helplessly, not intending to clear up the situation.

“I dressed myself.” He deliberately motioned at his own clothes.

Did I dress myself too? Looking down at her clothes, doubt crept into her heart.

But no matter what, I cannot get pregnant!

The next second, Joan snatched up her bag from the side and ran out of his room.

This woman sure runs fast! Dustin sat on the bed, his eyes dimming as he watched her fleeing his

place.

Joan did not stop running. As she panted, her features were lined with unease.

What should I do? How should I break this to Larry?

“Hey, get out of the way!”

“Do you have a death wish, b*tch?”

Joan was currently standing in the middle of the road as she tried to recall the events of last night.

Hence, she completely failed to take notice of her surroundings and was cursed at by a few drivers

on the road.

Suddenly, her arm was grabbed and she was pulled to safety. “What's going on with you?” came

Jake's worried voice.

When she didn't answer, he continued probing, “What the hell happened? Why were you so

completely out of it?"

She raised her head in a daze and said, “It's nothing. What are you doing here?”

“I came out for a run. When I saw you walking across the road so absent-mindedly, I was worried, so

I followed you,” Jake explained, then checked her for any injuries, “How are you feeling? Are you

okay?"

“I'm fine. Don't worry,” she reassured with a sheepish smile.

“Where did you go last night?” he inquired.

“Huh?” Joan's mind was still whirring.

“Based on the direction you were coming from, you didn't go home last night, right?”

Yes, I didn't go home last night. How I am supposed to explain it to Larry?

When she remained silent, Jake furrowed his brows and asked, “What's wrong? Did someone hurt

you? Was is Larry?”
