A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2492

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2492

In the yard, Delilah asked, “Joan, did Larry say when is he coming back?”

Looking disappointed, Joan replied, “No. He kept telling me he’s busy lately.”

It had been a long time since Larry last called her. In fact, she was the one who called him the last time they talked.

Inexplicably, Joan felt uneasy.

“Perhaps he’s too busy. Don’t worry. He’ll come back when he’s done with his work,” Delilah consoled Joan while she busied herself with the gardening.

She knew it took time for Larry’s body to recover. Hence, all she could do was to comfort Joan.

Suddenly, Joan asked, “Ms. Young, do you think something has happened to Larry?”

Hearing her question, Delilah spun around, gazing at her nervously.

She soon regained her composure and was quick to retort, “Oh, Joan, Larry is a mature man. What else could happen to him?”

Still, Joan couldn’t cast her worries away. But he’s gone for so long… Has he not done with his work yet?

Just then, Delilah called out while pointing at her phone on the table, “Your phone is ringing!”

Joan quickly went over and answered the call.

“Joan, it’s me, Caspian.”

“Did Larry say when is he coming back?” Joan asked eagerly.

Hearing that, Caspian couldn’t help feeling sorry for both her and Larry. Larry wished to go back but he couldn’t. It was not his work that was holding him back, but his personal affairs. As long as they were not settled, it would be impossible for him to get his life back to normal.

Moreover, Larry was afraid that Della might go to the extreme as to harming Joan. After all, one could never predict what a lovelorn woman was capable of doing, especially Della – a woman who would do whatever it took to get what she wanted.

Caspian sighed internally and said, “Joan, Larry asked me to call you back. He’s currently busy with the Norton Corporation’s new project, so he needs to stay here a little longer.”
