Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2394
“It was a Mr. Caspian.”
It really was him!
Caiden’s blood boiled as soon as he heard that name.
God dammit! Who knew he’d do something like this!
“Alright then. Since Larry has paid for it, let’s go home!” Delilah exclaimed and walked out with the child’s hand in hers.
“I’m sorry, Joan. I didn’t know… “ Caiden was at a loss for words.
In fact, he was not the only one who was surprised. Joan was also astonished that Larry would do something like that.
“Dad!” Lucius suddenly called out outside the pizza joint.
He gave Joan quite a shock. What time is it? Why is he here?
“Lucius, did you have fun?” Larry greeted gently and picked him up.
“I did! It would have been even more fun if you were with us.” Lucius was elated.
“Alright. Let’s go then. Oh, and thank you for accompanying them, Mr. Owens,” Larry said after getting Lucius into the car.
“You’re welcome,” Caiden replied in a clipped tone.
“We’ll be on our way then,” Joan said before she headed towards the car.
Looking at them all happy made Caiden extremely jealous, giving off a cold vibe.
“You came just at the right time, Larry,” Delilah praised him in the car.
Larry smiled and gave Joan a side-eyed stare while driving.
“You’re amazing, Dad. You actually knew where we were!” Lucius exclaimed.
Of course! I’m Larry Norton! There’s nothing I can’t do.
“Where have you been, Caiden?” Noelle shouted from the living room with a coquettish tone.
Caiden eyes widened, dumbstruck. “Why are you here?”
He was sure that she and Jaden left for their hometown. Why did she come back?
“I came to see you of course. Do you miss me?”
“That’s not going to happen, so you better stop wasting your time on him,” Jaden said as he came down the stairs.
“Jaden! Can’t you give me some encouragement instead!”
“He’s just stating facts,” Caiden chimed in. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Caiden had lost count of the times he rejected the woman in front of him, but Noelle was relentless.
She kept on thinking that, Caiden would be moved by her relentless pursuit one day. She did not know that Caiden’s heart had no room for anyone else besides Joan.
“Joan!” A loud greeting stunned her in place.
“Huh? Don’t you remember me?” Jake ran towards Joan.
No way! It hasn’t been that long, right? He looked at Joan attentively, waiting for her response.
“I remember you. But what are you doing here?” Joan asked in a soft voice.
“I’m here to look for you.” Jake smiled.
He’s joking, right? What does he want with me? At that moment, a vague uneasiness slowly crept up of Joan.
“Am I not welcomed?” Jake asked.
He was unwelcome, but Joan was worried that he might be there to cause problems.
Nowadays, people were not what they seemed to be. A lot were cruel and merciless yet disguised it under a facade of kindness.
Joan already had a lot on her plate with Caiden and Dustin, so she did not want another man to cause her more trouble.
“Why are you here? Is there something you need?” Joan got straight to the point.
Anyone could hear that she was not pleased to see that man from the way she spoke.
“I’ll be living here from now on.” Jake smiled.
Suddenly, Joan’s mind went blank. It was like she was struck by lightning out of nowhere.
“Is that so?” she muttered.
She was at a loss for words, not knowing what to say to the man before her. Happy? I can’t tell him that because I’m definitely not. But I can’t say I’m sad either! That’d be too much!
