Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2816
“Larry!”
Suddenly, Caspian dashed toward him like a cat on hot bricks, but was slightly relieved as soon as he saw Larry. He huffed and said, “You scared the living daylights out of me! I thought you’re having suicidal thoughts!”
What? Committing suicide? Me? Larry was irritated.
“No, Larry, listen to my explanation. Jessica told me that you went to the beach and insisted that you wanted to follow Joan’s footsteps.”
Wait a minute, this doesn’t sound right. How did Jessica know that I went to the beach when she was actually still asleep the moment I left the office?
Raising a curious brow, Larry sized him up.
Ring! Ring! Ring!
Caspian immediately answered his phone.
“Um… Caspian, I didn’t get to finish what I wanted to say. Actually, it was a dream. I dreamt about Larry going to the beach…” Jessica came clean with him over the phone.
Caspian lowered his head in embarrassment. Jessica is such an unreliable brat! He sighed while scratching the back of his head. He responded abashedly, “I’m sorry, Larry, I was mistaken.”
Keeping silent, Larry blinked blankly at him and then walked toward his car. Caspian quickened his steps and followed Larry closely, ditching Della at the shore.
Seeing the two men leaving her behind, Della’s heart sank.
“Ma’am, you should take a rest and let me do it,” Joan said loudly from a short distance away.
That familiar voice frightened Della out of her wits. She hurriedly follow the direction of the voice and it led her to a familiar face.
Joan is alive! Instantly, Della’s body stiffened like a corpse.
