Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1990

Should I bring up the divorce with him? Joan was hesitant about it.

“Ms. Young told me that you are having a fever,” Joan remarked when she entered the room.

Larry didn’t respond to her.

Is he asleep? She approached him slowly.

“Larry.” Joan gently patted him on his arms.

However, he didn’t move at all.

When she put her hand on his forehead, she was shocked.

“Larry, wake up. Quick, take your medication before you sleep.” Joan panicked.

This fool of a man! Why isn’t he taking his medicine despite having a fever?

“Joan,” Larry mumbled as he pulled her into his embrace.

“I’m here. Take your medication.” Joan gently stroke his hair.

“Don’t leave me.” Larry buried his head into her collar bone.

At that moment, Joan’s heart wavered.

I don’t want to leave him. But, I don’t have a choice.

The next day, the morning sun shone through the windows. Larry was hugging Joan tightly with a blissful expression on his face.

When he opened his eyes and saw Joan in front of him, he was shocked to realize it wasn’t a dream at all.

He subsequently grinned in satisfaction.

“Urgh…” Turning around, he rubbed his eyes as it was already daylight.

“You’re awake. Have some soup first, and here’s your medication,” Joan uttered softly as she walked toward the bathroom.

Both of them were feeling awkward but pretended to be calm instead.

Breakfast was quiet as both of them hardly said a thing. Once they were done, Lucius went to school while Delilah tended to her garden. As for Joan, she grabbed a piece of bread before heading out. Finally, Larry felt lonely after he was the only one left in the small dining room.

She hasn’t forgiven me. His gaze darkened at that thought.

Wait, that’s not right! Suddenly, his eyes flashed with anger when he remembered seeing her hugging Dustin last night.
