Never Late, Never Away

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1944

Seated on the sofa next to him, a sense of disappointment flashed across Joan’s eyes.

Now that her checkup had been postponed due to the temporary closure of the hospital, it also indirectly meant that she would need to stay overseas longer. Larry will surely be more worried! Rubbing her hands nervously, she was in a daze.

“Joan, let’s go out for some fun. We haven’t had fun together for quite a long time,” Dustin’s voice cut into her thoughts abruptly.

Joan looked at the man in embarrassment and rejected him nicely.

At that moment, Larry’s good-looking face kept floating in her mind. She was not in the mood to entertain Dustin at the moment.

Dustin’s heart throbbed with pain at the sight of the helpless look on her face.

Maybe I shouldn’t have lied to her… His face darkened at once when he found himself in a dilemma.

After a while, pin-drop silence ensued in the place. Dustin continued to flip through the magazine casually, whereas Joan was seated on the sofa, staring off into the distance out of the window. The man looked for a chance to start a conversation with her once more, but he changed his mind as soon as the thought of interrupting her came to mind.

The atmosphere became awkward as both of them were in utter silence.

Dustin was in bewilderment. What’s the point of me planning everything and bringing her all the way here if we just end up doing nothing? What a waste!

At that moment, Joan was gazing sorrowfully at the cloud in the sky with a glint of sadness in her eyes.
