Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1907
Chapter 1907 You Have Always Been Strong
“Let’s not disturb him. He needs to rest now,” the doctor reminded the adults and left.
In the ward, Lucius was still unconscious with an IV drip attached to his arm. Everyone was holding their breath while waiting for him to regain consciousness.
“Ugh…” Lucius finally made a sound.
“What is it, Lucius?” Delilah asked.
“Water…” Lucius muttered weakly.
Joan fetched the water and darted to Lucius’ bedside.
“Here, have some water.”
Lucius slowly opened his eyes and tried to find his bearings.
“Dad, have I become stronger now?” Lucius uttered the words in a barely audible voice.
Tears welled up in Larry’s eyes as he replied, “Son, you’ve always been very strong.”
As days passed and Lucius started to restore his strength, the adults began planning their trip back home.
“What are you doing here?” Larry scowled at Dustin when they met each other at the airport.
Dustin’s fists balled up as he shot a cold glance at Larry. “It’s none of your business where I’m going.”
The friendship between Dustin and Larry had shattered since Joan’s car accident. It was solely because of her that they were able to stand being in each other’s presence right now.
“Haven’t you always been residing overseas?” Larry snarled.
“I don’t think I owe you any explanation,” Dustin retorted while shooting the other man another cold glare.
“Can you two please stop bickering? Today is supposed to be a special day, right?” Joan said while looking at Lucius.
“That’s right, Mom. Dinner is on you!” Lucius said excitedly.
Joan fell silent at her son’s suggestion.
It was the meal I treated last time that resulted in him getting hurt.
