Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1941
The duo soon checked out of the hospital and were swiftly on their way to the airport.
A dead silence filled the car. Joan looked out of the windows, trying to take in as much of this city as she could etch into her memory.
Ring, ring, ring… She cast a glance at the display but did not pick up.
Beside her, Dustin’s lips curled up in satisfaction. In his opinion, leaving quietly this way was not necessarily a bad thing.
“Where’s she?” Larry howled when he arrived in the room where Joan was held captive.
Caspian approached the men lying on the floor and regarded them coldly.
“Start talking. Where is the woman?” He grabbed one of the big boys and asked.
“I don’t know. Our boss was in there, then some random guy showed up and gave us all a good whopping. He then stormed inside and took the woman away…” that boy hastily explained.
Larry’s eyes brightened up. Had Joan been rescued?
“Who took her?” Larry hurried over and pressed him.
“I’ve no idea. Anyway, he’s the one who has her,” the big boy explained.
Larry narrowed his eyes in the window’s direction as though deep in thought.
“Why weren’t we informed when Joan was rescued?” Caspian looked doubtfully at Larry.
The latter motioned with his hand, and his bodyguard immediately held his own tongue.
More importantly, who was it? A cold glint flashed across the man’s eyes.
He was concerned that the other party was no friend of his.
Larry rubbed his hands as anger mounted inside him.
“Lock down all the major hospitals, Caspian. We’ve to locate Joan!” Larry bellowed.
At the same time, he pulled out his phone and made a call.
“We’re sorry. The number you’ve just dialed cannot be reached…” Larry’s eyes darkened in the same instant.
