Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2084
“Joan, how’s Ms. Young doing lately?” Larry inquired out of the blue.
“She’s doing pretty well. She has already agreed to accept treatment, so don’t worry.”
That was undoubtedly great news to the family.
The next day, Joan headed to the hospital early in the morning. By then, Larry had already transferred Delilah to a VIP room that was equipped with every amenity. In fact, it resembled a small suite. However, Lucius had been rather emotional recently, so Joan had no choice but to commute between the hospital and home every day. It was now better, for his emotions had stabilized, so she could just stay in the hospital.
“How’s Lucius, Joan?” Delilah asked weakly.
“Don’t worry, for he’s doing good. Besides, Larry is there to take care of him.” Joan flashed her a smile.
Basically, Larry was already home when Lucius’ classes ended. While there was indeed much to be done at the company, someone still needed to take care of the child.
“Dustin dropped by this morning,” Delilah remarked softly.
Hmm? Why did he drop by? Tilting her head thoughtfully, Joan plunged into deep contemplation.
“He said that as long as I cooperate, I’ll definitely make a full recovery.” Undeniably, he’s quite glib.
“Oh, you’re here, Joan?” The hospital room door was pushed open in the next moment.
“Um… How did you know about Ms. Young being hospitalized?” Joan looked at him curiously.
“Hey, what did you mean by that? We all live in the same village, so how could I possibly not know when everyone in the supermarket knows about it? You’re talking as though I’m heartless!” Dustin threw her a glance before fiddling with the plastic bag in his hand.
“Here, Ms. Young. I bought these especially for you. Moving forward, you must have a balanced diet. Remember to eat more fruits and vegetables. Don’t worry about anything else, and rest assured that you’ll definitely make a full recovery. I believe in you.” He then made a fist pump in encouragement.
Once, I thought he wanted to break Larry and Joan up. But I’m really curious as to why he hasn’t made a move after such a long time, merely keeping watch over Joan silently.
“What do you mean, Ms. Young?” Dustin chuckled awkwardly.
“She’s already married and even has a child, so you should give up. Let her go, and let yourself go. Is that not so? Also, I know all about the shares you have in Norton Corporation, so don’t try playing any tricks,” Delilah warned as she pointed a finger at him.
Indeed, she knew everything, even things Joan had no knowledge of.
“It looks like you’re quite a formidable character, Ms. Young.” Dustin eyed her while peeling an apple.
I’m already in my golden years now, so how am I still formidable? It’s just that I’ve seen through a lot of things, so I don’t want the young people around me to repeat the mistakes committed by those before them.
“You’re a good man, but you’re simply too obstinate at times. Why don’t you find yourself a woman to spend the rest of your life with, like Larry and Joan. Isn’t that good…”
