Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2164
“Why? Don’t dare to admit that you have a special interest? Larry is a straight guy. Don’t you dare to make him into a queer!” Jessica scorned.
Finally, Caspian realized what that commotion was about.
She’s so crazy to think that I’m a gay? I was married. How ridiculous.
“Whatever it is that you are thinking, don’t speculate blindly. Get out of my room now. I’m going to bed. There are tons of work waiting for me tomorrow. Larry isn’t here, so would you please leave right away?” Caspian gestured her out of the room.
What did he say? But he reserved only two rooms. Did Larry get another room for himself? Jessica sank into deep thoughts.
“That’s enough. Stop dilly-dallying. Go back now,” he urged.
“No, wait a second!” She clasped his arms.
“Tell me Larry’s room number,” she pleaded bashfully.
Caspian chuckled. A loud and boisterous Jessica suddenly turned into a timid mouse.
“Stop wasting your time. Larry has gone elsewhere. He’s not in this hotel.” As soon as he said that, Caspian pushed her out of the room.
What a ridiculous woman; always thinking about nonsensical stuff! Even if Larry stays in this hotel, he won’t enter your room. Stop daydreaming!
Meanwhile, Larry was resting on his bed and staring blankly at the crescent moon outside the window.
What is Joan doing right now? Did she have a good meal? What about Delilah and the child? He missed Joan all of a sudden, but he would get all worked up when he recalled the incident earlier.
Where did she go the other night? What did she do? Who was she with? Furrowing his brows, Larry was in a pensive mood.
Should I give her a call? He looked at his phone and hesitated.
Fine, we’ll talk about this another time. However, his phone rang shortly after.
He thought that it was Joan but became disappointed when he saw the name displayed on the phone screen. Thus, he ignored the call.
“Why isn’t he answering?” Fretting, Jessica was mumbling in her own room.
“Larry,” Caspian greeted him.
“Where were you last night, Mr. Norton? It’s a bummer you didn’t bring Caspian and me along,” Jessica cast a glance at him and said deliberately.
“I just went to another hotel. It’s quieter there,” Larry explained.
Jessica’s eyes brightened up as she stared at him with anticipation.
“Which hotel?” she followed up with another question.
Larry responded with a grin but kept silent.
I ain’t mad. Why should I tell this woman and invite trouble?
“Let’s go for breakfast, Caspian.” Larry changed the topic.
In the meantime, Joan was helping Caiden pack his clothes in the ward. She looked composed but did not know what to say to Caiden as she felt a little guilty toward him.
