Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2246

Seriously? I can’t believe they actually came up with a rumor like this.

“No. There were some things I had to deal with the past few days, so I couldn’t come to work. What do you mean I’m pregnant? They’re just rumors,” Joan hurriedly denied.

“I’m sorry. I had many things to deal with the past few days, so I couldn’t come to work,” Joan apologized as she hung her head.
