Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2825

At this, Jessica’s eyes clamped shut in an attempt to recompose herself. Ugh, forget it! No one will believe me. She bounced onto her feet and marched out of the office.

Caspian’s heart chipped as he watched the woman he loved storm off. Although it pained him to be so unsupportive, he knew it was for the best; he didn’t want Jessica recklessly chasing after some hallucination.

After exchanging some brief words, Caspian left the office and made haste to catch up with Jessica.

Elsewhere, a different conversation occurred. Dustin had holed up in Abelyn’s villa ever since Joan went missing. He refused to step foot outside, and it broke Abelyn’s heart to see him turn his back to the world.

“Cheer up, hmm?” Abelyn uttered cautiously as she patted his shoulder.

It had been a long, long time since Joan went missing. Yet, Dustin still found himself unable to focus on tasks. He wasn’t sure when or how long it would take before he could finally move on from losing her. All he knew was that he had fallen into an abyss, and he wasn’t ready to leave just yet.

“It’s none of your business!” Dustin thundered without a trace of warmth whilst flinging her hand off of him.

Normally, Abelyn would have yelled at the man for his crappy behavior. But things were different now; Dustin could barely hold himself together after losing Joan, so Abelyn couldn’t bring herself to scold him.

“Dustin, I’m begging you to snap out of it! Do you know how much I’ve sacrificed for you? I even broke up with that bartender!” Abelyn’s voice came out shaky.

She had been taking care of Dustin, who slumped away in his sorrows after Joan’s disappearance. Her bartender boyfriend blew up in a rage when he found out about this. He then forced her to choose between him and Dustin.

It took her a long time to decide, but she eventually stuck with Dustin because she couldn’t bear watching her best friend waste his life away in depression. She was determined to save him.

Once Abelyn’s words registered in Dustin’s mind, his gaze softened as he looked up at her.

He knew that she was the only one who had looked after him all this time. She had dedicated her time and energy, as well as sacrificed her love to be there for him. If only she knew her love was only a means to end for that bartender boy… Dustin sighed inwardly.
