Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2016

“Don’t say that, Joan. I really am worried about you,” Larry mumbled as guilt welled up in his eyes.

At the scene, Delilah then led Lucius out of the room.

At the end of the day, the two had to settle the issue themselves.

Larry stared at her, but Joan had her face turned toward the window instead. Both were deep in their thoughts, and the atmosphere in the room was tense.

“Can you please listen to my explanation? Things are not what you think they are. There really isn’t anything between Gabriella and me; I just can’t find the evidence to prove that yet,” Larry murmured.

What a pitiful joke. He’s already done it with her, and he even has a baby in her now. How can he possibly deny his relationship with her now? At those thoughts, Joan tensed up.

The Larry I know wouldn’t do this. He used to be bold and responsible. Why is he like this now? Why is he trying to avoid everything?

Fatigue was her default state over the past few days. She did not want to be involved with Gabriella; all she wanted to do was spend the rest of her life peacefully.

“All right, that’s enough. I’m tired, and I want to sleep now,” Joan mumbled as she lay down and closed her eyes.

Larry could only look helplessly at her, feeling awkward about getting dismissed. He wanted to explain to her, but she refused to listen to him.

“But what?” Larry urged.
