Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1636

In contrast to Caspian, Nancy was different. She was about Joan’s age and had sincerely wished them happiness during the wedding. With that thought in mind, Joan gave Nancy a call.

“Hello, Joan?”

Before she could say a word, Nancy’s voice rang out over the line. As if she was grasping desperately for a lifeline, Joan responded in anticipation, “Yes, it’s me!”

“Joan, I know why you’re calling me. But I don’t know how to explain this to you. I can only tell you that when you and Mr. Silverman were dining at the restaurant, Caspian and I happened to be there. However, he didn’t tell Larry about it.”

“But yesterday, when Larry came to see Caspian, asking him to investigate the matter, I noticed how conflicted Caspian looked. Hence, he would likely have told Larry about it.”

After Nancy finished her long explanation, both of them fell silent.
