Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2766
Is He Complimenting Me
He ate them and smiled in satisfaction. “Thank you, Mom. Thank you, Grandma.” Looking at his bright, innocent smile, Joan’s heart melted, and she felt as though her life was complete.
“How is it? Does it taste good?” Delilah asked Lucius anxiously.
He gave her a thumbs up. “Of course! Every dish that Grandma makes is delicious!”
Since when did he become such a sweet talker? Smiling, Joan fell into a trance looking at the little boy in front of her.
Although Larry was abroad, he knew everything that happened to Joan lately and chose to trust her despite the doubts in his heart.
That night, they had a call with each other and talked about the incident between her and Lucinda. After hearing the whole story from her, he praised, “You did well.”
Is he complimenting me? Joan blushed at his words. At that moment, joy and contentment filled her heart fully. Little did they know that an evil scheme was creeping up on her.
“When are you coming back?” Joan sounded rather anxious. It had been a long time since she had last seen him. I can’t wait for him to return.
“There are still a lot of things that need to be dealt with here, so it’ll take a while,” Larry replied. He could understand how she was feeling at the moment as he missed her dearly, too.
After a brief chit-chat, they ended the call.
When Delilah passed by and saw the forlorn look on her face, she went to sit beside her on the sofa and asked gently, “What is it, dear? Did you miss him?”
“Yeah,” Joan answered truthfully. Obviously, he had just been away for a few days, but she felt as if he had been gone for several years.
“It’s okay. I’m sure he’ll be back soon. Chin up!” Delilah patted her shoulder and cracked up at the lovesick look on her. Finally, they were acting like a real married couple!
Suddenly, the incident at the mall flashed through her mind. “Joan, so who’s the one behind the incident?” Delilah was agog.
Who else could it be? Of course it’s Della.
