Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2203
“Mm-mm.”
“Ms. Young! You’re up. Are you feeling better? Does it hurt anywhere?” Joan clutched Delilah’s hand in concern.
After Delilah saved her life, they had lived together for a long time. Hence, she thought of Delilah as family and couldn’t bear to part with her.
“Look at you. Why are you so worried? I’m fine, aren’t I? I was just too tired and wanted to sleep longer. Why did you send me to the hospital? Don’t do that again, you hear? I was only sleeping, mind you,” Delilah pinched her cheeks and chided.
Seeing how Delilah had regained her energy, Joan couldn’t conceal her delight. She didn’t mind being rebuked by Delilah as long as the latter was healthy.
“Ms. Young, you have no idea what a scare you gave us last night,” Dustin strode over and declared.
Oh, so he’s the one who sent me here. I thought it was Larry. Delilah sighed in disappointment as something flickered in her gaze.
No matter how busy he is, he should at least take Joan’s feelings into account. She reckoned that Joan must’ve called Dustin after failing to contact Larry.
After all, she knew Joan too well. Larry was the top priority in the latter’s life.
“Hey, I’m starving. Why don’t you head out to buy some food?” Delilah turned to Dustin and suggested.
“Oh, sure. Wait a minute, didn’t Larry go earlier?” Dustin returned.
“I don’t like his preference. He’s going to buy some oily stuff again. I want to eat a simple sandwich,” Delilah replied on purpose.
Joan immediately understood that Delilah was trying to send Dustin away to talk to her in private.
