Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2480

In the hospital ward, Caspian was sitting by Larry’s bedside, feeling simultaneously desperate and helpless.

“When can we go back to the country, Larry?”

“What? But you’ve just arrived?” Larry shot back with another question. Caspian hung his head.

Able to tell that Caspian likely missed his lover back home, Larry spoke up, “Go make a phone call to Jessica.”

The man slowly pulled out his phone and shot Larry a grateful smile before running out of the room. Larry took a glance at his own phone and opened up the gallery app, staring wistfully at his photos.

Ding! A text had come in from Joan.

What are you doing?

Those four simple words encompassed all of the love and care she had for him.

I’m working, he instantly replied. His phone didn’t ring again after that.

He’d sent that on purpose, knowing that she would not bother him while he was at work. He didn’t have any other idea as to how he could hide everything that was happening from her.

“Where’s Larry?” Nancy asked Joan pointedly.

“He’s out of the country for a business trip,” came Joan’s flat answer.

“When is he coming back?”

“I don’t know. He seems a little busier than usual, but he said he’ll be back soon.”

So Joan was still unaware. Nancy sighed, staring at her friend with sad eyes.

She’d always been of the opinion that Larry and Joan’s love was one of the purest, strongest things on earth. Now, that didn’t seem to be true anymore.

“What’s wrong, Nancy? Is something on your mind?” Joan instantly paused what she was doing.
