Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2516

An ominous aura emitted from Larry. No wonder she didn’t come home that night. It was because she was out with that rotten scumbag, Dustin again!

“What’s wrong, Larry?” Caspian asked after sensing something was off.

He approached the desk and was flabbergasted by the countless images. He gasped, “Impossible. Maybe these are edited?”

“They’re not!” Larry was well-versed in the subject of photoshop. He could easily tell that these photos were untouched and unedited copies.

Sh*t. He’s definitely upset now. Caspian nervously eyed Larry, whose complexion had darkened into a hideously brown shade of rage.

“Larry, we can’t arrive at rash conclusions just based on these pictures. Your best option is to ask Joan what happened,” Caspian advised with a cautious tone.

“No,” came Larry’s curt reply.

This wasn’t at all an uncommon sight for Caspian as he knew Larry like the back of his hand. Once Larry made up his mind, there was no convincing him otherwise as he would react by mulishly holding his ground.

“You shouldn’t make such negative assumptions, Larry. Joan isn’t that kind of woman—”

“Get out!” Larry interrupted.

Hurt, Caspian clamped his lips shut and left the office.

What’s up with all these sudden incidents? Caspian let out a sigh as his shoulders slumped frustratedly.

Screw it. I’ll call Joan and let her know.

“What photos?” Joan sounded confused after Caspian informed her of the parcel’s disturbing contents.

“The ones where you and Dustin were on the beach.”

Within seconds, a sharp inhale came from Joan as she recalled going out that night. She didn’t expect anyone to be so interested in her private life. Joan knew that Gabriella wasn’t the one who had sent the photos as she was already long gone.

“Yeah, I spent a night with Dustin on the beach,” Joan admitted frankly.

There’s nothing to hide. I’ll take responsibility for my actions. Besides, my conscience is clear because I didn’t do anything that betrayed Larry in any way.

“Joan, you should explain everything to Larry. He’s absolutely fuming right now,” Caspian suggested.

“I said that my wife is the world’s most adorable human being ever…” He immediately sang a different tune.

Caspian wondered why Joan had suddenly become so stubborn. However, he didn’t dare to ask, so all he could do was shove everything onto Jessica and hope for the best. After all, it was easier for women to share private topics amongst themselves. Perhaps Joan might feel comfortable opening up if Jessica was the one convincing her.

Not long after, Jessica met up with Joan. She asked, “Why don’t you want to explain things to Larry?”

“There’s not much to explain. If he trusts me, then he won’t need my explanation at all,” Joan’s lips curled against her teeth.

Upon hearing this, everything became crystal clear to Jessica.

The two lovers were quarreling because they refused to give in and admit defeat. They were only acting out of stubborn pride.

“Well, you should still talk things out with Larry,” Jessica continued cautiously.

Joan snorted, “What is there to talk about? Will we talk about Della, his new girlfriend?”

Oh? This bitter tone… she must be jealous! Jessica’s eyes twinkled at this juicy new bit of information.

She feigned a sincere expression. “Well, Della’s actually an outstanding woman—the best if there ever was. Most importantly, she’s an ambitious career woman. I’d marry her in a heartbeat if I were a man. It’s just a pity that Larry isn’t the least bit interested in her.”
