Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2776

Awakened

“Dustin, I’m here. I’m Joan.” She ran to the side of the bed and said gently. Dustin opened his eyes slowly, with his breath sounding extremely weak and short.

If I knew this would happen, I would never open a flower shop!

Looking at the miserable Joan, Caiden felt as though a thousand needles were stabbing through his heart.

“You fool. Don’t be sorry. We are good friends, aren’t we?” Dustin struggled to lift his hand and grabbed Joan’s gently.

Indeed, he simply wanted to protect her, without expecting anything in return.

Plus, he was fully aware that love was not something that could be forced. Thus, he had decided long ago to let go of her and look after her as a friend forever.

“Dustin, I have to admit, you are truly brave.” Just then, Caiden stood up and walked up to Dustin.

“I’m sure you would do the same if you’re in my shoes,” Dustin responded.

Caiden nodded. Indeed, I would not hesitate for a second to take her place. Both of them exchanged glances and smiled.

Any man who failed to get the woman he loved would definitely choose to back down and protect her as a friend. This applied to both Caiden and Dustin. Thus they had something in common after all.

“It’s time for medicine.” Right then, a nurse came in and placed some medicine on the table. “Don’t move around these few days until you recover. Remember this.”

Abelyn, who was staring from afar, looked utterly dispirited. She could not accept that her best buddy who was still playing around lively just the previous day, was now lying on a hospital bed.
