Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2233
Humans are fickle-minded creatures, after all, especially women.
“I don’t know. I’ll think about it next time,” Joan answered impassively.
Why isn’t she angry? She would have bitten my head off if I had asked her this question in the past. Yet, she’s answering me so seriously right now. Is something really wrong between her and Larry? Caiden stared at her suspiciously.
“Joan, are you and Larry ok?” he asked.
“Of course we are. Why wouldn’t we be?” she replied lightly while sipping on her coffee.
She’s lying! She always looks nervous whenever she lies.
Suddenly, Caiden’s lips curved up slyly. He had expected Joan and Larry to break up eventually, but he didn’t think it would actually happen this soon. Really, I must thank Larry for going overseas with Jessica. He’s given me the golden ticket.
Just wait, Larry. Some day, Joan’s going to leave you for me. You can just lick your wounds in a corner with Jessica!
There was a devilish gaze in Caiden’s eyes.
“Hey, what are you thinking about? You look really pleased with yourself,” Joan commented.
“Ah? Oh, it’s nothing.” Caiden quickly regained his composure as he took a sip of his wine. “Do you want some? Since you’re not doing anything later, a little sip won’t hurt.”
Joan hesitated as she stared at the glass of ruby red wine.
I do wish I could forget my problems with a glass of wine. I guess that’s why they call it “drowning your sorrows.” But no, I shouldn’t!
“Nah, you can just drink it yourself.” Joan shook her head.
