Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2547
There were some people who were just born with gravitas and Delilah was one of them.
“Ms. Young, I really didn’t do it on purpose,” Joan sobbed.
Regardless of whether it was deliberate, the matter did happen. Delilah patted her on the shoulder, feeling sympathetic.
“Tell me, what are you going to do?”
Raising her gaze at Delilah, Joan shook her head to indicate how lost she was and how much she was struggling.
She didn’t dare tell Larry for fear that he would be angry and even seek to hold Dustin accountable.
“Do you plan to hide it from him forever? Joan, you of all people should know how Larry’s temperament is. He doesn’t like to be lied to and hates betrayal even more,” Delilah added.
And then? Am I to confess everything to the man I love? Joan looked hesitantly at the woman in front of her.
“What did Dustin say? Will he take responsibility?”
Ms. Young is really sharp to have seen through us easily.
She nodded in agreement.
“What about you? Do you not plan to remarry Larry?”
No! Of course, I still want to be with him. It’s just that I need time to sort out what happened between me and Dustin. However, it seems that he is not giving me any space. Hence, I will have to take this a step at a time.
“Do you plan to marry Dustin then?” Delilah continued to ask.
“No!” Joan snapped instantly.
Very good. That’s the Joan I know. Loyal to the one she loves. A satisfied smile emerged on Delilah’s face.
After chatting a while longer, both of them went their separate ways.
To Delilah, the solution was simple. The earlier Joan told Larry, the faster they can solve the problem together and get their lives back on track. However, if Larry was to find out before that, the matter would become infinitely more complicated to resolve.
“What’s wrong?” Jessica asked aloud as she leaned into Joan’s ear.
