Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2557
“Joan, who is he? What is he doing here?” Dustin asked her anxiously.
“Don’t worry, he is one of your friends,” Joan explained as she patted him on his shoulder.
But why do they look so hostile? As Dustin looked at the approaching duo warily, he was filled with terror.
He could sense that they were not friendly to him, and that was indeed the truth.
“Don’t you remember?” Larry walked up to him and asked.
When he saw the unfamiliar sight of Larry, Dustin nodded without a word.
“He doesn’t remember anything at all,” Joan explained.
With his eyes will with suspicion, Larry scrutinized Dustin. “What did the doctor say?”
“The doctor said that there’s nothing more they can do, it’s all up to him. Nevertheless, it was a miracle for him to even wake up,” Joan replied with a smile as she gave Dustin a satisfied look.
But for some reason, Larry felt that the smile was especially jarring and forced.
If only one day she could smile that way at me, it would feel wonderful indeed. At that moment, Larry felt optimistic about the future.
After all, now that Dustin was awake, it meant the time he could get back together with Joan had been brought forward. He was suddenly filled with anticipation for the day Dustin recovered his memories.
Della walked up and said to Joan, “Joan, as for what happened last time, I would like to sincerely apologize to you. As I had left too abruptly, I didn’t manage to say sorry.”
In the face of the sudden apology, Joan didn’t know how to react. She had already forgotten about the incident and didn’t expect Della to remember. Hence, she appreciated the thought.
“Ms. Duff, that’s water under the bridge. Look, isn’t everything wonderful now?” Joan remarked on purpose.
She was never one to hold a grudge, especially toward Larry’s business partners.
