Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2865
She’s still so stubborn! Larry turned around, closed his eyes, and drew in a deep breath. “Fine. Let her go!”
“Larry!” Irked, Jessica shouted at him.
“I said, let her go!”
Not only had Larry’s response surprised Joan, but it left the others stunned as well.
He’s really letting me go! Somehow, Joan actually felt a tinge of disappointment.
“Rest assured, I won’t tell Jake about this,” she promised them before walking off.
Larry originally wanted to bring her home and slowly help her recover her memories. But now it seemed that was not what she wanted. Nevertheless, he would never force Joan to do something she refused to do.
“Larry, are you crazy? That’s Joan! That’s the one you’ve been looking for all this time! And you’re just going to let her marry Jake?” Caspian rushed to Larry and yelled at him. To Caspian, his action was absolutely questionable.
“I respect her decision,” Larry spoke slowly and in a flat tone.
Larry had nothing to prove, but he was willing to believe that even if Joan really did lose her memories, she would not marry Jake so easily! Now that Joan had met him, Larry was actually willing to wait for her to clear all doubts she had over Jake, and then return to him soon after.
She will! I’m sure she will! She just needs some time! With that, Larry turned to leave.
The others standing at the doorway looked on helplessly as he walked away.
If it was only Joan who refused to come back, perhaps they might still have hope to turn things around, but if Larry had also given up on her, then they had nothing to talk about.
Caspian sat on the sofa, frantically scratching his head in an attempt to appease the frustration he had been bottling up.
On the other hand, Larry headed straight to the company. Now that he had met Joan, and knew that she was safe and sound, that was enough for him. He would let time deal with everything else.
