Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2240

Guilt abruptly flooded Larry. How could I have doubted her? We’ve been through thick and thin, and I knew she loved me…

“Joan, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have doubted you. This is my fault. Can you forgive me?” he muttered as he pressed kisses onto the woman’s collarbones.

His magnetic voice instantly changed the air in the room. As always, he’s charming. He’s making me fall for him again.

“All right. To be honest, I was angry at you too,” Joan confessed.

Larry knew that too. After all, it would be odd for her not to get angry.

It was a fact that he had spent quite an amount of time with Jessica. Although it was out of respect for her parents, he had to admit that he had neglected Joan’s feelings.

Furthermore, things at the company just kept piling up, and he did not have the time to return home to explain to her. That was why the talk had delayed until a moment ago.

“I know, but I’ve always seen Jessica as just a friend. I’m sure she’ll be focusing on her work soon. You know this too. Until the end of Norton Corporation’s collaboration with the Zimmers’ company, our cooperation with them had been a pleasant one,” Larry explained.

Joan nodded silently.

She understood what he meant. In fact, she understood everything. Regardless of that, she was still unhappy when she saw him with Jessica.

“Don’t worry. Jessica’s Caspian’s,” Larry voiced with a gleeful smirk on his lips.

What? Does Caspian like Jessica? How can that be true? Does he like that kind of woman?

Joan blinked rapidly as she stared at the man in front of her in disbelief.

“That’s right. He likes her, but she doesn’t like Caspian. However, it’s still too early to say that. These two will end up together eventually.” Larry’s smile grew.

Immediately, Joan heaved a relieved sigh.

“Joan, I just want to say things that’ll make you happy. Why are you killing my mood? Come, let’s head to work.” With that said, Larry pulled the blankets away, about to rise.

“Hubby, I get it. Don’t leave,” Joan whined as she hugged his waist.

“When are you going to be back in the afternoon? What would you like to eat tonight? I’m going to get groceries from the supermarket and cook for you tonight. Does that sound good?” Joan hummed, her eyes closed.

With her hands on his stomach and her face on his back, Larry felt his body temperature rising, especially when he could feel her shallow breathing.

“Joan, let go of me,” Larry hastily said. If she kept this up, he did not know if he could hold himself back any longer.

However, instead of letting him go, she hugged him even tighter.

Abruptly, Larry spun around and pinned Joan under him. There was a desperate look in his eyes, and his breathing was rapid.
