Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2087
Flora rushed up to them and said courteously, “Hello, Mr. Norton. Dr. Lowry is waiting for you to handle the bill.”
“Thank you.” Larry turned and left.
“Hey! What are you up to? You’d better not cause a ruckus. This is a hospital!” Flora gave Dustin’s elbow a shove.
“No, you’ve got it wrong,” Dustin explained. “I wasn’t causing a ruckus. Besides, that punk’s the one who came to me…”
He was already in a bad mood, but now, it had worsened.
Still, had Flora not come over in time, the two men could have ended up getting into a real fight.
“Joan! What a coincidence. What are you doing here?” Caiden appeared surprised, acting as though he and Joan had met by accident.
Joan was taken aback. Why are we bumping into each other so frequently these days? We work in completely different fields, and we don’t even go to the same places. But for some reason, we keep meeting in certain common venues. It’s so bizarre!
“What a coincidence, indeed. What are you here for? Are you not feeling well?” Joan asked softly.
“Yeah. I haven’t been doing too well lately, so I’m here for a check-up.”
He just returned from abroad, and he doesn’t have any family apart from Jaden. It must be pretty tough on him.
“I see. Let me know if you need any help. I owe you one, anyway.” Joan patted the man on the shoulder like a close buddy.
“Really?”
“Of course. As long as I’m able to,” Joan promised, thumping her own chest with confidence.
Little did she know what Caiden was actually up to.
You’re going to regret it. Caiden smirked deviously.
The two exchanged a few more words before parting.
“What took you so long?” Larry asked as she returned to the ward.
“Oh, I bumped into Caiden. He’s not feeling well, so he’s here for a check-up.”
Is this all just a coincidence? He’s not actually up to something, is he? Larry gazed out the window with narrowed eyes, looking rather desolate.
