Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2144
He never once believed that this woman was kind-hearted enough to visit him at the hospital.
However, the truth was that she was indeed concerned about her son.
“I panicked when I heard that you had gotten into an accident. That’s why I rushed over.”
This was the truth, no matter whether Caiden believed it or not. The woman knew her son had lived with his grandmother since young. This was also why he was never close to her or her husband. It was thus normal that Caiden did not like to go home and was defiant against his parents.
“Well, Mrs. Owens, since you’re here, you can keep Caiden company tonight. I shall head home then. Is that fine?” Joan looked towards the man as she spoke.
What? No. I shall not make it that easy for you. Even if my mother is here, I will not let you leave the hospital!
“My mom is only here to visit for a while. She has another engagement in the evening, right?” Caiden turned his head and stared at his mother, his eyes daring her to disagree.
Feeling his fierce glare on her, his mother piped up, “Ah? Yes, yes. I’ll only be here for a while. I have some work to settle at night. I shall take my leave then. Call me if anything!” The woman then walked out of the ward.
Wait… What’s going on? Her son is badly injured! How can she leave like that? I can’t believe she walked out. Doesn’t she want to care for her son? Joan was growing increasingly frustrated.
Initially, she had thought that she could head home earlier when his mother showed up. She never expected the woman to not play any role in this.
“I will come again tomorrow. I really have something going on tonight,” the woman repeated as she stole a glance at Joan.
Who isn’t busy? Lucius, Larry, and Ms. Young are all important people to attend to. However, I value Caiden’s welfare more than anything too! I can’t believe this is happening!
Joan clenched her fists secretly, feeling disappointed and angry.
“What’s up? Are you upset? My mom is always like that. Don’t mind her.” Caiden waved goodbye to his mother as he spoke.
Don’t mind her? I want to go home. I have plans! Now, I can’t do so because she’s not around to take care of you.
