Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2608
“Huh? I’m fine.”
Joan’s swift answer put Delilah’s heart to rest.
“Mom! Come over and put your signature here,” Lucius beckoned from the room.
“Right away!” Joan went over upon hearing her son.
Delilah cast her suspecting gaze at Larry after Joan left.
“Everything’s okay. Don’t worry,” he assured, patting her on the shoulder.
Everyone went to bed for an early rest. The next day, Joan rose early and went to the photography studio without even having breakfast.
“Morning, Ms. Watts. Do you need any help?” Caiden greeted her first thing when he saw her at the office.
Joan looked at the man sitting comfortably on the couch and shot him a rigid smile.
“I’m fine.”
“You sure?”
“Yeah. Don’t worry.”
Since she insisted that she could handle things on her own, Caiden left the studio after hanging around for a short five minutes.
After he left, the supervisor came over. “Ms. Watts, I think we need to recruit more people.”
“I think we’re doing just fine though,” Joan replied.
Caiden had not told her about his arrangement.
“It’s impossible we could do all this on our own,” the supervisor said.
Do what? What is there to do? Joan lifted her befuddled gaze.
“Mr. Owens struck a deal with a client. It’s a huge project…”
Joan finally understood why Caiden came to the photography studio this morning.
A frown settled on her brows. She did not like the way he handled things.
Over at the villa, Abelyn was sitting nonchalantly on the sofa sipping from a cup of warm coffee.
“Joan is really something,” she commented, putting down her coffee.
“What are you trying to do this time?” Dustin asked anxiously without losing a moment.
