Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2596
Soon, the car pulled up at Jessica’s villa.
“Where is this place?” Joan looked around and asked anxiously.
“This is my house,” Jessica replied.
“Who are you? Why did you bring me here?” Joan yelled shockingly.
Perhaps because Faye’s death was too much to handle for Joan, she would have memory loss from time to time.
“I’m Jessica!”
“Who’s Jessica? Was it you who killed Faye? Tell me, was it you?” Joan yelled while having Jessica in a chokehold.
Now, she had a complete mental breakdown.
Nancy’s heart sank as she looked at Joan, whom she used to respect so much. At the same time, she began to feel worried about Jessica’s safety.
“Jessica, I’m worried that she’ll hurt you,” she said to Jessica seriously while prying Joan’s fingers off of Jessica.
“Joan, let go!” Jessica tried very hard to pull Joan’s hand away from her.
“It’s okay,” Jessica replied in between breaths after she wriggled free from Joan.
“Where’s Faye? Where did she go? Why hasn’t she come back?” The next moment, Joan asked.
“Faye is dead! Joan, you’ve to sober up now!” Nancy shouted.
Instantly, an awkward silence permeated in the air around them.
“You lied! Faye isn’t dead! She only went on a trip. She said she was tired and wanted to get some rest,” Joan murmured while twiddling her fingers.
“Joan, you’ve to accept the reality,” Jessica said softly and looked extremely worried.
Joan lay on the couch, narrowed her eyes, and looked wasted. She still couldn’t accept the fact that Faye had died.
“We’re going to attend Faye’s funeral tomorrow. Since you look weak, I suggest that you should stay here,” Nancy proposed.
“I want to go,” Joan suddenly replied calmly.
Joan’s reply took them by surprise. Having recollected themselves, they came up to her and stroke her hair.
