Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2219
What the hell? Has she a thing for Nancy? Does that mean she has a unique sexual preference?
Caspian gaped at the woman in front of him and asked, “Have you grown fond of Nancy?”
“Yes!”
As Jessica replied without a second thought, he had a hard time comprehending the rationale behind the woman’s words. Although they used to be married, Caspian still found Nancy’s actions unpredictable.
“When will I be discharged?” Caspian asked.
“What exactly are you up to? The doctor said it would take at least another fortnight.”
Why does it take so long? Caspian was worried about Larry who dealing with the troubling matters involving Norton Corporation on his own, and his displeasure was written all over his face. The situation will drag on indefinitely if there’s no one around to help Larry.
“If it’s regarding Larry, you don’t have to worry because things are fine on his end.”
He heaved a sigh of relief when he heard her reply.
On a side note, he couldn’t figure out the proper way to break the bad news to her. Afraid she couldn’t embrace the truth of her parents’ death, he had been keeping her in the dark.
Staring at her warily, he replied, “Jessica, I have a question for you.”
Annoyed, she answered with another question, “Are you sure you’re a man? Can you cut the small talk and get to the point already?”
How am I supposed to bring this up? Conflicted, he stuttered, “I-I’m sure you understand that our parents won’t be able to keep us company until the end of our lives. If your parents leave this world way ahead of you, what are you going to do?”
He directed the question at her as though he was talking about a hypothetical situation while his eyes flickered in curiosity and trepidation.
