Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1824

To say she was a little upset with the outcome would be an understatement.

“Wow, what did you make? It smells good.” Larry walked downstairs unexpectedly as she was wailing internally.

“Let me try some.” The man headed straight into the kitchen.

“Don’t. It looks horrendous and tastes bad. I’ll make better ones in the future.” Joan lowered her head in shame before muttering, “I thought of giving you a surprise, yet…”

Larry grinned and inched closer to her. “Silly girl. You’ve given me the best surprise ever. Come, show me what you’ve got.” He then picked up a piece of the dessert and put it into his mouth.

“It’s delicious! Did you intend to hide it from me so you could finish it yourself?” Larry squinted his eyes playfully as he teased her.

Joan was struck dumb by his comment for a moment.

Upon seeing how hideous the dessert was, she had not bothered to try it. Yet, Larry shoved a piece into his mouth without any hesitation.

“Really?” She was thrilled to see how much he enjoyed it.

“I’m going to finish this by myself if you don’t want to eat any.” Larry took the entire dessert away in an attempt to tease her.

“Hey, stop right there! Let me try some!” Joan ran after him.

Just as she was about to reach his side, he placed the plate on the table and turned around to give her a big bear hug.

“Everything you make tastes good,” Larry beamed, giving her a light peck on the forehead.

Joan kept her head down and blushed like a teenage girl who had just fallen in love.

He always knows how to touch my heart and make me the happiest girl in the world.

“Thank you.” She leaned forward into his embrace, snuggling up to him.

How she wished she could enjoy the moment and forget about reality for a moment.

The two of them really felt as though they could live happily ever after during that moment. But they seemed to have forgotten the existence of one particular woman.

“Are you ready?” Gabriella was alone in a dimly lit room when she posed that question to someone who was on the line with her.

“I really can’t do this, Miss. It’s against the law!” The man refused to be in cahoots with her.

“You have nothing to worry about. Just do as I told you to,” Gabriella instructed in a deep voice.
