Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1923
“What’s wrong? Is Joan being too strict with you these days?” Gabriella teased, posing seductively.
Larry let out a scoff and turned around.
“Get to the point. I’m a busy man.”
The woman stared at Larry helplessly. She was aware of how he was dismissing her.
Larry, I’m not going to let you have your happily ever after since I can’t have you for myself.
She dug her nails into the flesh of her palm.
Bam! The clinic’s door was flung open, giving the doctor inside a scare.
“Mr. Norton, why are you here?” The doctor peered at Larry curiously.
“I’m looking for someone.”
His tone sent shivers down the doctor’s spine.
Joan wasn’t around, and the clinic only consisted of doctors and patients. Who in the world is he looking for?
“Mr. Norton, Joan’s not around…”
The doctor quickly shut herself up when she saw the look on his face.
Fine. Whatever. I’ll just let him do whatever he likes.
The doctor nodded goodbye and walked to a hut beside the clinic to have lunch with Lonnie.
“Who came?” Lonnie asked with his guard up.
He would be dead meat if it were the same men who had beaten him up.
“It’s nothing. Eat up. Ignore it.” The doctor chewed on a piece of meat as she spoke.
Larry had searched through most of the wards, but Lonnie was nowhere to be found.
Did Caspian get it wrong?
Larry pulled out his phone and called the man.
“Caspian, did you give me wrong information?” he asked impassively.
“No, boss, he’s definitely there. I’m sure of it!” Caspian said determinedly.
Larry’s expression grew grim.
Suddenly, he noticed a small hut beside the clinic. It was where the doctor cooked and had her meals. Larry slowly walked up to the door. He knocked lightly.
