Never Late, Never Away

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2179

For someone who seemed to be so put-together all the time, she looked remarkably vulnerable in this state. With a poor sense of direction, food allergies, there seemed to be no end to the suffering she had to endure. Larry sighed inaudibly and sat down on the sofa next to her bed.

Suddenly, Jessica began to mumble something in her sleep. Larry was just barely able to make out what she was saying.

Is that what I think it is? She’s calling for her father? With slow, measured steps, Larry walked towards her.

Jessica’s face was flushed, with beads of sweat all over her face. The doctor had taken a look at her and mentioned that it was a normal reaction. She would be alright after a while.

“Dad, don’t go! Don’t leave me,” murmured Jessica.

Without warning, she stretched out her right hand and firmly held onto Larry’s, refusing to let go.

Larry tried to tug his hand away but he could not escape her vise-like grip. Does she think I’m her father?

Also, it has been so long. Her father had yet to reach out to her. Under normal circumstances, any parent would have called to enquire about their daughter, who happened to be with their competitor. Larry’s gaze darkened as he thought about the kind of mess she was in.
