Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2066

“Look at that. What an image of sisterhood,” Jaden proclaimed as he walked into the room, placing the bags he was carrying aside.

“What did you buy? Are there snacks in there?” Nancy asked excitedly, her eyes dancing with anticipation.

“Of course. How could I not have gotten your favourite?” Jaden replied proudly. He fished out an enormous bag of assorted snacks and tossed it over to Nancy.

Even while pregnant, Nancy radiated a disarming beauty. If Nancy wasn’t so obviously taken, Jaden would have swooped in.

“Jaden, what’s happening out there?” Joan asked somberly.

“It’s a mess. Someone’s going door to door searching the rooms. This place isn’t safe anymore. We’ll have to move somewhere else,” Jaden replied gravely.

In fact, Jaden had been rather astounded by the doggedness of Nancy’s kidnapper. So many days had passed since Nancy had escaped, yet she was unrelenting in her pursuit. Jaden privately wondered just how great an offense Nancy had committed to warrant such a chase.

“Hey, where’s Caiden? Where did he go?” Nancy asked out of the blue, as if suddenly recalling his existence only then.

“He went out to deal with some other matters. He can’t be spending the whole day in here with you, can he?” Jaden remarked wryly.

He shot a glance at Joan, who was standing a little way off. Raising his voice slightly, Jaden continued, “Caiden’s always busy every day. I really don’t know which woman will be able to deal with that in the future,” Jaden said, purposely a sigh loud enough for Joan to hear.

Nancy hesitated, then slowly inched towards Jaden.

“Are you saying that Caiden doesn’t have a girlfriend now? That’s impossible! He’s so handsome and is such a kind-hearted man. How can he not have a girlfriend?” Nancy commented incredulously.

Everything Nancy had pointed out about Caiden was true. In fact, Caiden would have had a girlfriend by now if he hadn’t been so hung up over Joan. The various girls who had lusted after Caiden while he was in college were sophisticated, pretty maidens. They stood no chance, however, against Caiden’s steadfast obsession of his college sweetheart.

At least Caiden had finally met Joan now after all those years spent pining for her.

“Joan, do you have a boyfriend?” Jaden asked casually.

“Like me, Joan got married quite a few years ago,” Nancy quickly supplied.

What? She’s already married? Jaden thought, aghast. Did both of us go to all that trouble for nothing?

Disappointment flashed across Jaden’s eyes. If Caiden finds out, he’ll be devastated! Jaden thought, distraught.

“What are all of you talking about? It sounds exciting,” Caiden’s voice called out cheerily at that moment. He followed, sauntering in soon after.

“Uh… we were… nothing much. Why did you come back so early today?” Jaden asked, quickly shifting the conversation away from the earlier sensitive topic.

“I finished early so I came back naturally,” Caiden replied smoothly.

One could almost hear a pin drop in the room, so stifling was the silence.

“What’s wrong? Why are all of you behaving so strangely?” Caiden asked with a chuckle.

“It’s nothing. We were just… they were just asking me about the situation outside. We are still…” Jaden frantically replied, tripping over his words in his eagerness to fill the room.

“That’s right, we’ve got to move. They’re searching for you room by room. If we don’t allow them in here, that’ll definitely raise their suspicions,” Caiden agreed.

It looks like Gabriella’s not going to give up anytime soon! Joan thought gloomily.

“Joan, isn’t that person your best friend in college? She looks very familiar,” Caiden suddenly said.

“What do you mean, best friend? She’s Joan’s nemesis! She’s totally a wolf in sheep’s clothing,” Nancy retorted, gnashing her teeth in anger.

Nancy had meant to look intimidating but Jaden only found her grow even more adorable in his sight. His lips curved up involuntarily into a smile.

“Caiden, thank you for taking care of us for the past few days. However, I think it would be best if we head home instead,” Joan suddenly said slowly, as if deep in thought.

There was no point in staying there now that Gabriella and her men had arrived, Joan reasoned. If she and Nancy remained, all they would be doing was submitting themselves into Gabriella’s hands.

Beside Joan, Nancy looked rather apprehensive. “Joan, even if you go home, Gabriella definitely won’t stop here,” she piped up in a small voice.

It was true. To say that Gabriella was an extremely determined individual was to put it lightly.

“So it’s her,” Caiden gave a low whistle.

He recognized the name. Gabriella had been notorious in college for bullying the freshmen in their club. She was also extremely snooty and would only associate herself with the rich and powerful. Gabriella considered herself far too superior to mix with the common herd. Caiden had been on the receiving end of Gabriella’s nastiness back in school. If it wasn’t for Joan’s multiple interventions, he would have quitted the club long ago. Caiden would naturally never have had the chance to win first place then.
