Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2719

I Just Came To Say Hi

"Our kitty will only settle for the highest quality of cat food...” Joan mumbled softly while slowly

running her hand through the cat's fur.

“Well, well, well... If it isn't Joan Watts!"

A familiar voice came from behind, and Joan shuddered in terror when she turned around and saw

the man before her.

What's he doing here?

“Long time no see, Joan!” Jake greeted her as he made his way toward her.

Heh, it really has been a long time... Joan snorted and shot him an icy-cold glare.

She had thought she was safe from his clutches by fleeing overseas, only to have him send Della

overseas to go after her.

Unbeknownst to Joan, Jake was overseas as well when Della held her hostage. However, the three of

them had escaped from the log cabin by the time he got there that night.

"What do you want?” Joan asked coldly and cautiously.

“I just came to say hi, that's alll” Jake replied with a nonchalant shrug

Is that so? I seriously doubt it's that simple! Joan took her eyes off him and gazed at the cat in her

arms affectionately instead.

"How's life?" Jake asked playfully.

“It's all right,” Joan answered firmly.

Like hell it is! I nearly lost my life a while back! Dustin clenched his fists as he stood next to her and

waited for Jake to say something.

"Where have you been lately? I've missed you so much.”

Jake's words had Dustin looking at the both of them in confusion.

What the hell is going on here?

“Mind your language, Jake!” Joan reminded him coldly.

Even with everything that has happened, this b*tch is still acting all high and mighty?

"What? This is how I always have been.” Jake's response was as calm as ever.

“Sorry, we've got some other business to attend to, so we'll be on our way now.” Joan then grabbed

Dustin by the arm and began walking away.

"Why are you avoiding me, Joan? What are you so afraid of?” Jake asked with a devilish grin.

Dustin stopped in his tracks and gave her hand a little squeeze. “Why don’t you make it clear to him

and draw the line?"

“Ignore him, Dustin. I've told him countless times before, but it's no use...” Joan explained.

How am I supposed to draw the line with him? In fact, I just realized I don't even know Jake all that

well...

"He's been on your tail all this while?” Dustin asked in surprise.

“Yes, and I've been avoiding him all this while,” Joan replied honestly as she figured there was no

need to hide it any longer.

“Does Larry know about this?”

“A little...” Joan lowered her gaze and let out a sigh.

So this guy is the reason why she went overseas!

"Hey, Joan! Say hi to Larry for me, okay?" Jake waved at her from where he stood with a sinister

smile on his face.

He actually didn't know that Joan had been living in Abelyn’s villa ever since her return to the

country.

"Oh, and Dustin? Give up, you don't stand a chance.” Jake said as he walked away, leaving Dustin

rooted to the spot in awkwardness

After all the time that has passed, he no longer expected Joan to reciprocate his love and simply

hoped to protect her for as long as he could.

"Come on, let's go home!”

The two of them then paid for their groceries and left the supermarket, completely unaware of the

mysterious person tailing them with a camera.

“Back already? Wow, you guys are fast!” Abelyn called out to them happily when she saw them at

the gate.

Joan handed her some snacks from the grocery bag. “Here, look what Dustin got you!"
