Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2603

After a while, all of them were back to their workstations again and continued with their tasks. Even after they knew that the photography studio would be acquired, the conscientious team decided to carry out their duties till the last minute.

Meanwhile, Jake’s mother had dropped by his office earlier. Ever since Faye had perished, grief and hatred had turned Jake into a cold-hearted person. He was determined to seek vengeance against the culprit who had caused his beloved woman’s death. Hence, he told himself not to let Joan off easily. In his eyes, the woman with whom he was deeply in love previously had become a murderer who ruined his happiness. He vowed to pay her back on behalf of the love of his life.

“Do you think it’s appropriate to do so?” she asked him with knitted brows.

She did not wish to see her son turn into a ruthless person without a sense of sympathy.

“I don’t see any issues,” he replied placidly.

“Mom, don’t worry about me. I know what I’m doing. Just go back first,” he added casually.

“Jake, no matter what you do, I will always be supportive of you. However, I hope you would never be regretful of what you insist to do right now.”

“Don’t worry. I won’t regret.”

Heaving a silent sigh, she knew that her son was adamant and would not easily take her advice. She had no choice but to leave his office in silence.

“Keep an eye on him closely and update me on his whereabouts from time to time,” she instructed Ted, who was seated outside his office.

Ted nodded in acknowledgement as he bowed at her.

In the meantime, Jake was trying to go through the documents on his desk, yet Faye’s figure was floating in his mind. Earlier on, they had tentatively planned to have their wedding ceremony at the end of the year, yet it had become a dream that was impossible to be fulfilled. He would never have the chance to see her in a wedding gown anymore! My dream is shattered because of Joan Watts!

Bang! He unleashed the suffocating exasperation by punching hard on the wall. In a blink of an eye, blood dripped from his finger, yet he was oblivious to the pain. It was as if his senses were utterly numbed by the stabbing pain in his heart.

The photography studio could not be saved from falling into Jake’s hands. On the day he emerged as the official new owner of the company, all the employees followed in Joan’s footsteps and left.

“Ms. Watts, let’s have a celebration tonight!” one of the young employees suggested eagerly.

“Everyone, stop calling me Ms. Watts from now onwards. I’m not your leader anymore. Just call me Joan,” Joan said softly in embarrassment.

“As for the celebration, let’s proceed with it!” she announced.

What’s there to celebrate? Still in the mood even when we are jobless? Of course we should celebrate since our team is not dissolved!

“Ah! Isn’t that Joan Watts?”

Out of a sudden, there was a familiar voice from behind her.
