Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1647
“Miss, would you like to buy one?”
Glancing at her, Joan received the rose and gave the girl a fiver.
“After buying this, I don’t know who I should give it to.” Despite thinking it, Joan inadvertently blurted it out.
“You should give it to the one you love, of course,” the girl replied casually. Her words suddenly illuminated what Joan truly felt in her heart.
Ever since the beginning, she had only loved one man.
No matter how he misunderstood her or hurt her, she still loved him from the bottom of her heart. It was precisely because she loved him so much that her heart was shattered when she realized he didn’t trust nor understand her.
Joan smiled at the girl. “Thank you.” The striking color of the rose seemed to have set her heart alight.
Meanwhile, Dustin was slumped in his chair, staring at the ceiling.
With his eyes closed, his eyelashes seemed to be jittering rapidly. His mind was filled with images of her while his ears reverberated with the sound of her voice.
When he heard a knock on the door, he swiveled his chair away from it and massaged his temples. “Come in.”
“Yo, what are you doing? What’s wrong? Did your plan fail?” The man poured himself a cup of coffee before taking a seat on the leather sofa.
With his back toward him, Dustin sounded tired. “So what if it did? She still can’t forget Larry.”
The man lit himself a cigarette. Squinting his eyes, he seemed to be relishing the moment. “By the way, I heard Larry gave you a beating. Do you want me to get someone to exact revenge for you?”
Dustin turned around. “No. Speaking of him, I would actually like to thank him for the beating.”
