Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2495
With a heavy heart, Della cast her eyes over the company. For years, her life was occupied by her work. There was no room or time left for her to do other things. Everything in the company looked familiar to her. Yet, it was time for her to leave her comfort zone for a new environment.
“Ms. Duff, are we still leaving?” the assistant asked.Della nodded.
“Let’s go.”
On the other hand, Larry and Caspian had gotten off the plane and were now riding a cab, heading back home.
Meanwhile, Joan received a call from Delilah. “Joan, come home now! Larry is back!”
Joan was dumbstruck upon receiving the news.
“Ms. Young, w-what did you say?” she asked, for she couldn’t believe her ears.
Delilah said smilingly, “Oh, Joan, I said Larry is back! Come home quickly. He’s looking for you.”
Just then, Larry’s voice was heard over the phone, “Joan, where are you?”
It’s really him! At that instant, Joan grabbed her purse and quickly ran out of the café.
“Joan, where are you going? You haven’t finished your coffee!” Jessica called out from behind.
Without even looking back, Joan uttered, “There’s no time for coffee. Larry is back!”
Hearing that, Jessica eyes brightened up. Larry is back! That means Caspian is back as well!
“Joan, wait for me! I’m coming with you!” she yelled.
In the house.
“Dad, where have you been? I missed you a lot!” said Lucius while burying himself in his father’s embrace.
“Well, I went on a business trip,” Larry explained. Then, he handed a gift box to the boy. “Look, this is a present for you! Do you like it?”
Later, Joan was back at home. The two were spending some time alone in the bedroom. Fixing her eyes at the man, Joan asked resentfully, “What took you so long to come back?”
“The new project is keeping me busy,” Larry answered in his deep voice while he hugged her tighter in his arms.
“Then, did you miss me?” she continued asking.
“You’re my woman. Of course, I would miss you.” He caressed her hair before planting a kiss on her forehead.
