Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2112

What kind of “thing” would cause them to interact with each other daily? Even Lucius would occasionally bring Caiden’s name up when he was with Larry. It would seem that Caiden had done his homework.

“I’m back, Ms. Young,” Joan called out, pushing the door open and heading straight for the kitchen.

“You bought so much! How did you carry it all?” fretted Delilah.

“A handsome young man helped deliver the items,” one of the nurses behind Joan unhelpfully supplied.

Larry instantly turned his sharp gaze towards her. Was it Caiden again?

Noticing Larry’s change in mood, Delilah quickly changed the topic by loudly saying, “Thank you so much, Joan. What do you plan on cooking?”

“Let’s see. I might make a few regular dishes, and then fry some fish…”

Larry didn’t have the appetite to listen any further.

“Oh, Larry! Lucius is going to come back from school soon. You should spend some more time with him. He seems a little stressed lately, apparently because of a competition he’s joining,” Delilah pointed out purposefully.

“Alright.” Larry got to his feet and walked over to the window, staring sadly at the scenery outside.

Joan, busying herself in the kitchen, completely failed to notice his behavior.

“Don’t worry, Grandma,” Lucius later told Delilah comfortingly. “You’ll definitely get better!”

“You’re all mere foodies, aren’t you? I’ll host a small get-together at my place after I get better and treat you to my cooking then,” Delilah chuckled.

The atmosphere appeared cheerful and bright, but each of them was secretly suppressing their true emotions of uneasiness and concern. After all, who wouldn’t be worried about surgery? No one said it aloud, but they were all afraid that Delilah wouldn’t come out of the operating theater after going in.

Joan stood off to one side, hiding in a corner as she watched everything in silence. She was stubbornly trying to prevent herself from bursting into tears, and everyone understandingly gave her own space.

“Okay, okay, that’s enough. Ms. Young’s surgery will definitely go well,” a nurse walked over and told them. “The professionals that Dr. Silverman has invited are the best in their fields. There’s no need to worry so much.”

Dustin slowly walked over to the bed, and the small crowd parted to make way for him.

“It’ll be alright, Ms. Young,” Dustin reassured Delilah, gripping her hand in his. “It’s just a simple procedure. Just grit your teeth and get it over with.”
