Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1668

There were several blisters on Joan’s feet after walking for hours on end throughout the past few days. Many a time, she wanted to rest by the roadside, but Gabriella’s arrogant face would appear in her mind. It was as though she was standing right before her and mocking her. “Hah! You look rather pathetic, Joan Watts!”

Every time she thought of that, she inwardly cheered herself on—hang in there! She searched for Larry at every single place they had ever visited together without missing a single detail, retracing their steps in the past.

The city was enormous, and she weaved through this big city like a headless chicken. At times, when she was truly at the end of her will, she went to the plaza with a water screen and sat on the stone bench while guzzling a bottle of mineral water to quench her thirst.

The huge screen often played news of the current happenings in Marsingfill, smalls disputes, conflict of interests, or trivial matters in the local community. That day, it was a traffic accident.

Joan’s hand shook, and she almost dropped the bottle of mineral water in her hand. Her mind was flooded with blood-red images as though the old truck was right in front of her, plowing toward her ruthlessly.

She knew that she shouldn’t think of Larry at that moment, but fear abruptly seized her. She was struck with terror that such a thing would happen to him, even more so at the thought that perhaps the reason she couldn’t contact him in the past few days was that… tragedy had already befallen him.

Her legs went weak, and she almost fell to her knees. As gusts of cold wind swept past her from behind, her heart instantly went chilly. Then, she gulped uneasily. No, I must find him even if he’s at the ends of the world! I must grab hold of him and question him on his reason for avoiding me and refusing to see me. Also, I want to ask him about the misunderstanding Nancy and Caspian have against me.
