Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2538

“Caspian, where are you?”

Some time had passed between Nancy’s last rampage and her recovery. When she finally sobered up, drained of energy, she turned to Joan and asked in a feeble tone, “Really? Did I really do that, Joan? Have I been shouting Caspian’s name last night?”

“Yes. Loudly, I might add,” Joan replied.

“Alright, you seem fine now. I’m getting you home, and you should have a nice, long talk with Jory. You should have seen yourself yesterday, Nancy. You’ve gone way too far!” Joan muttered as she got dressed.

At that moment, guilt and resignation had begun to show on Nancy’s face.

“I’m just worried, okay? Why can’t he just walk a mile in my shoes?” Nancy complained.

Oh, dear. Nancy, you just don’t get it, do you? Jory has walked many miles in your shoes!
