Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2537
“No! I don’t want to go home! I want Joan! Joan, let me tell you a secret…” Nancy blurted as she made to slap the man in front of her.
“What are you talking about? Go home!” Jory yelled again.
“No! I’m not going home!” Suddenly, the woman shoved Jory into a corner with all the force she could summon. Pointing a finger at him, her eyes narrowed, she muttered something about going to look for Joan.
This woman’s gone mad! She hasn’t been the same since she’s given birth!
In the end, Jory was unable to dissuade the drunk woman. Running out of ideas, he took out his phone and called Joan.
Within an hour, a very anxious Joan showed up at the private room.
“Nancy, what’s all this about?” She begged for an answer as she held the woman tight.
“Is that you, Joan?” Nancy lifted her head and asked the woman who had just arrived for confirmation.
“Yes. Yes, I’m Joan. Come on, let me take you home, okay? We can talk once we get back,” Joan gently coaxed Nancy as she got the woman on her feet.
“I said I don’t want to go home! Joan, what should I do? Jory doesn’t love me anymore. I’m sure he doesn’t want me anymore! Do you know that, when I went looking for him just now, he gave me this look of disgust! And, in front of so many people, he ordered me to go home!” Nancy complained to Joan in between sobs.
Jory watched the two women. Despite feeling aggrieved, he stayed silent the whole time, leaving a lot of things unsaid. His assistant felt terribly out of place in a situation like this, especially after hearing Nancy’s drunken speech.
“Mr. Synder, I think I’ll take my leave…” She excused herself and quickly left the private room.
“Then tell me, where do you want to go?” Joan asked Nancy.
“I don’t know! Anywhere but home! I don’t want to face Jory!” Nancy resumed her childish rant.
Jory looked at the drunken woman in front of him, his heart bursting with anger.
Who’s the reason I’ve been working so hard for? Haven’t I been giving it my all so that you can have a better and happier life? And now, you’re here, and for some reason you’re actually complaining about and doubting me?
