Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1543

“Larry, what do we do?” Panic consumed every inch of Joan as she felt she was at her wits’ end.

“It’s okay. If this is the case, let’s get out of the car and see what they want.”

Seeing that the assassin did not immediately take their lives in the car, Larry’s nerves began to calm down. Might as well make the best of the situation!

“So, why did you bring us here?” Unable to tell who they were behind the masks, Larry had no choice but to ask.
