Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1999
“By the way, Ms. Young. What did I do last night?” Larry looked at her in anticipation.
What sort of question is that? Delilah looked at him quizzically. For a drunk man who could barely walk, what else can you do?
“You didn’t do anything other than yelling Joan’s name,” Delilah plainly replied.
Suddenly, Larry’s gaze darkened.
“What else? Didn’t I do anything else? Such as standing up, returning to my room, or even going to the toilet?”
What a joke. You barely had any strength. How can you even go back to your own room?
“No, you didn’t do anything at all. All you did was sprawl on the table, sleeping. You didn’t even have any energy left.”
So that’s how it was! At that moment, Larry’s eyes lit up.
In that case, nothing happened between Gabriella and me that night. However, I still need evidence to prove it. A cold glint flashed in Larry’s eyes.
When he realized he could finally explain himself to Joan, a triumphant smile emerged on his face.
“Hey, Ms. Young, where’s Joan? Has she gone to work?”
“She didn’t come home last night. She said she was busy with something.”
Didn’t return for the night? Suddenly, sadness filled his eyes.
Is she together with Dustin? Has she really fallen for him? Larry clenched his fists as his eyes burned with rage.
“Alright, you should go home now and rest. After pulling an all-nighter, you deserve some good rest.” Dustin gently patted Joan on the shoulder.
“Alright, you be careful too. Bye!” Joan waved.
Before she came in, Larry heard their conversation outside.
Just as expected, they were together last night.
“I’m back,” Joan exclaimed the moment she entered the house.
“Where did you go?” Larry asked coldly.
Looking at the face she hadn’t seen in a while, all Joan felt was sadness. Not wanting to engage him, she quickly entered her room.
“Work,” she declared loudly before slamming the door shut.
Do you take me for a fool? To believe that you’ve been working at the supermarket for the whole night together with him? Suddenly, Larry was filled with rage.
Bam! He forcefully kicked the door open causing Joan to open her eyes in fright.
“Joan, what did you do last night? Who were you with? Was it Dustin again?” Larry demanded angrily.
Is he mad? He doesn’t have the right to question me at all!
“Larry, I’m really tired now. Whatever it is, let’s talk later.” Joan covered herself with her blanket.
Suddenly, Larry jumped onto her.
“What are you trying to do?” She glared at him, shocked by his reaction.
“Do you not love me anymore? Have you fallen in love with Dustin?” Larry grabbed her arms in rage.
What a joke! If I were interested in Dustin, I would have fallen for him a long time ago. Isn’t it strange for him to feel jealous?
“I…”
Suddenly, Larry gave Joan’s sexy lips a kiss. He did it so forcefully and unforgivingly. Joan struggled to push him away but her efforts were futile.
How long has it been since I last kissed her?
Despite the familiar scent, he felt she was different this time.
Slap!
A slap landed on Larry’s face.
It was followed by Joan’s furious glare.
“Larry, scram!” With a forceful push, she shoved him aside.
What is he trying to do? How dare he kiss me after sleeping with Gabriella?
This is despicable and terribly unbecoming of him!
“Joan, I…” Suddenly, Larry was stumped.
