Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1921

Tears welled up in Joan’s eyes as she stared at him.

Meanwhile, in the village, “Grandma, where are my parents?” Lucius asked.

“Oh, they had… something to attend to. They won’t be coming back for dinner tonight,” Delilah replied with a smile.

Lucius tilted his head, confused.

Knock… Knock… Knock…

Delilah immediately put her guard up. The knocking didn’t sound familiar to her.

“Who is it?” she shouted.

Nobody answered, but the knocking continued.

Delilah walked up to the door and asked once again.

“Ms. Young, it’s me. Open the door!” a man shouted.

He doesn’t sound like a robber.

“Ms. Young, is Mr. Norton around? He’s not picking up his phone,” Lonnie asked.

“Oh, he has business to attend to. What’s the matter?” Delilah answered cautiously.

“We have something for him to show our appreciation for his help…” Lonnie explained.

Hubert’s surgery had been a success, the man had entered the recovery stage.

“Do tell Mr. Norton I will bring what he wants over tomorrow.” Lonnie smiled before walking away.

Delilah watched as Lonnie left. She wasn’t sure why, but she felt a little uneasy around the man.

I must be overthinking again.

Delilah shook her head.

She immediately told Larry and Joan about Lonnie upon the couple’s return. Larry returned Lonnie’s call soon after.

“Hello, Mr. Norton, are you perhaps free tomorrow? I have a voice recording which I think you will be very interested in,” Lonnie said in a low voice.

“Tomorrow sounds fine. I’ll meet you at our usual meeting place.” Larry hung up at that.

Gabriella, as soon as I get my hands on all the evidence pointing towards you, you’ll be done for.
