Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1924

Larry’s eyes lit up as an idea flashed in his mind. “Joan, aren’t you close friends with the doctor in the clinic?” He looked at her, questioning in his gaze.

The woman stared at him blankly before answering him. “Yes, I am.”

“Why don’t you invite her over for a meal?” Larry suggested all of a sudden.

What’s he plotting this time? Joan looked at him suspiciously with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

“Hey, don’t look at me like that. Think about it. You both share a great relationship. It’ll make sense to have her over for a meal. Besides, we could ask her to take good care of Delilah if we were to leave one day…” Larry quickly responded.

He’s right. Why didn’t I think of that? Joan nodded slowly at his words.

I’m glad Larry’s a thoughtful and considerate man. We should establish a good relationship with her in case anything happens in the future.

“Alright. Let me give her a call then,” Joan said softly.

The corner of Larry’s lips curled into a grin.

“Joan, I’ll head out now,” Larry shouted when he saw Joan hang up the call.

The woman whipped her head towards the direction of his voice and hurriedly ran up to him.

“What’s going on with you? It was your idea to have her over for dinner, and now you’re heading off?” Displeasure was written all over her face.

“I…” Larry hesitated as he tried to think of an excuse to leave.

“I received a call earlier from the office. Something urgent came up that needs to be dealt with immediately,” he stated, praying Joan would take the bait.

Why’s it always work? Joan crossed her arms and looked at him unhappily.

“Come on; I’ll be back right away as soon as I get it settled, alright? I promise I’ll be back before you finish dinner,” Larry said as he tapped on his chest lightly.

Forget it. I know he’s working hard for the sake of the family.

“Okay, go ahead. Please be careful,” Joan said.

Larry pulled her into his arms, kissing the top of her head gently.

Soon enough, the lady from the clinic arrived at Delilah’s residence.

At the same time, Larry arrived the entrance of the clinic.

The lights in the clinic were still on; it was just as he expected!

Larry curled his lips into a playful grin as he stared at the clinic.
