Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2604
Dustin remained silent with his head lowered, avoiding having any eye contact with Joan as he was overcome by a sense of guilt. He was aware of the matter, but he was not involved with it. Even so, he was still considered as hurting Joan in a way by keeping mum about it.
“Alright, I have the answer for myself.” Joan turned and left at once in disappointment.
“Joan!” the young employee behind her yelled and quickened her pace to catch up with her.
Dustin’s eyes darkened as Joan’s figure vanished from his view. He did not have any idea how he should explain to her…
“Joan, try to cool down. There’s no point to cry over spilled milk. The most important thing at the moment is to stay strong and look ahead, isn’t it?” the young employee consoled Joan gently.
As her senior, Joan definitely knew well about those theories as well. It is really not worth it to brood over something that had happened. I should get over it soon and move on! She was just a bit disappointed with Dustin as she never expected that he would just turn a blind eye to Jake’s plan.
Forget about it! We are never on the same stance!
“Let me treat all of you a meal!” she announced sportingly and strode in front of them.
“Hurray!” Everyone applauded and cheered up in an instant.
While walking along the way to the place, the employees were joking and bickering around with each other. A few of them were even singing and shaking their bodies. Nobody would have guessed that they were actually a group of people who were jobless at the moment and overcome with career uncertainty. The other pedestrians were intimidated by their exaggerative demeanor when they shrieked and laughed occasionally. Some of them even suspected that they were intoxicated and tried to walk around them with a strange expression.
“Slow down! Safety first!” Joan turned to check on them from time to time.
“Joan, since when you start to nag like my Mom!” one of the young employees could not help feeling amused and burst into laughter.
“Anyway, you’re still a lot younger than my Mom!”
“What’re you talking about? How can you be so rude to Joan!”
The young employees started to play chasing games among themselves again and giggled as they bickered with each other.
It’s actually good to see them in such a playful way. It means they are not easily shaken by the acquisition of the photography studio. Joan was relieved to see their smiling faces and liveliness.
The loss of the photography studio did not mark the end of their career. They could start all over again at any time. As long as she had her team by her side, there was nothing to be feared.
“All of you have put a lot of effort in assisting me all this while. I really appreciate your contribution and support for me. All of you are the best!” Joan raised her wine glass and yelled at them thankfully.
“From now onwards, our team would never be dissolved, and all of us would never part with each other. Dare to dream and let’s hope for a better future!” Everyone applauded at her motivating words.
