Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2617
Respecting His Choice
“If Joan is his ultimate choice, then I’ll respect his wishes.”
This woman is unbelievable!
All this for a man? There are so many men outside whom you can choose from! Delilah could not wrap her head around Della’s thinking.
“Well, whatever floats your boat then.” Delilah left once she knew it would be fruitless talking to her.
Delilah was not planning on telling Joan about what Della thought about Larry. Just as she was thinking about how to go about prodding Joan to do something about it, Jessica had already beat her to it.
“Joan, you’ve been so busy lately. Aren’t you afraid Larry will start looking for other women?” Jessica pried.
“Nope, not at all.”
How can you be so sure? Jessica shot her a curious look.
“What if he meets someone he thinks is more suitable for him one day?”
What’s with all these questions? Joan finally cocked her head and looked at Jessica in dismay.
“Larry will never leave me. Even if he does, I’ll respect his choice.”
So you’re just gonna accept it? Well, good for you, but I’m not sure if you’ll be able to still be the bigger person if that really happens. Jessica looked away and stopped asking her questions.
Joan was a trusting and humble person. She was inexperienced in the crafty ways of the world, and she never plotted against people. Although this was a virtue, it also meant she was guileless when it came to others scheming against her. She would not even pose herself as a strong competitor to people who wanted her out of a game.
“Joan, I really salute you.” Jessica put up her thumb toward her approvingly.
What’s with this girl today? Joan looked at her sitting on the couch while her brain set to work, trying to understand what was Jessica thinking.
Don’t tell me this is about Larry.
