Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1777
Caspian grinned from the corner of his mouth.
Finally, it was the day of their third anniversary. When Caspian and Nancy first got together, he had already made an effort to remember every special occasion—Nancy’s birthday, their wedding anniversary, etc. Romance wasn’t something he knew well but he certainly tried to be romantic.
“Joan, what is it that you want to see me about?” Nancy looked at Joan inquisitively.
They had never chosen the beach as a venue for their meetings.
“Nancy, tell me, are you really giving up on Caspian?” Joan looked at Nancy intently.
As both of them had been through a lot in their relationship, Joan felt that it would be a pity if Nancy left Caspian out on impulse.
“Joan, I know. Perhaps it might sound like a joke to you but I really love Jory, and he, me. Between Caspian and me, the spark is somehow just missing,” Nancy answered with a serious expression.
Joan realized how adamant Nancy was and there was no way she could change Nancy’s mind.
“Nancy!” With a bouquet of roses in hand, Caspian suddenly appeared dressed in a white suit. His outfit made Nancy and him look like a wonderful match.
Caught by surprise, Nancy stood there stunned as she couldn’t remember what the occasion was.
“Nancy, perhaps this is the last time. So treasure it while you can.” Joan glanced at Nancy before looking at the approaching Caspian.
Caspian has done more than he ever could. If Nancy doesn’t change her mind, he can only blame fate for his predicament.
Amidst the gentle sea breeze and the warmth from the sun, seagulls were flying far by the horizon while soothing music played in the background. Caspian walked up to Nancy with the roses in his hand. Despite not being one for words, he was someone that was passionate. His feelings for her were obvious from the longing look in his eyes.
“Nancy, do you still remember? Today is our third anniversary together. All this while, I never knew how to make a girl happy. But, from the day I knew you, I have learned how to remember every special occasion.” Caspian began explaining in a passionate tone.
