Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2187
“Everything’s fine. I’m going to the washroom, so don’t wait up, okay?” Caiden said in a calm voice before getting up and leaving.
What Joan didn’t know was that Caiden’s patience and tenderness were only for her. He could tolerate every single bad thing and every temper of Joan’s, just not anyone else’s. This was what Noelle jealously wanted but could never have.
Did I cross the line? Caiden turned on the tap and aggressively splattered water onto his face.
“Caiden, you’ve gone too far. My brother already had a rotten day, yet you were so rude instead of comforting him. Do you think that the world revolves around only you? That everyone’s feelings don’t matter except yours?” Noelle lectured without holding back.
She would always prioritize her brother’s wellbeing over any other man, even if it were the man she liked.
Unnerved by her sudden anger, Caiden asked softly, “What happened?”
“I think he got ripped off by someone.”
What? How could something like that happen to Jaden? Ugh. Forget it. I’ll check on him later since he’s probably taking a nap now.
“I see,” Caiden acknowledged.
Then Noelle left Caiden to his devices as she wandered into the kitchen. There, she glared murderously at Joan, who had her back turned and was washing dishes in the kitchen.
“Why are you here? Didn’t I tell you to stay away from Caiden? Don’t forget that you’re someone else’s wife; you don’t deserve to be with Caiden.” Noelle threateningly bared her teeth whilst glaring daggers at her.
At this, Joan clenched her jaw. What’s she blabbering about? Caiden forced me to come over and prepare a meal for him. How is any of this my fault?
“Ms. Ford. First of all, I was forced to be here. You can ask Caiden if you don’t believe me. Go ahead, ask him if he called me over to cook him a meal,” Joan challenged resolutely.
