Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2823

Jessica slowly approached Joan. Her heart pounded as she waited for the latter’s embrace, but it never came. Little did she know, this version of Joan no longer recognized her.

What… Why is she staring so blankly at me? Jessica’s brows tightened into a quizzical look at the woman in front of her. She could only manage a squeak, “Joan?”

This must have been too soft because Joan didn’t acknowledge her. Instead, the woman headed off in the direction of the cash register.

Jessica stood frozen as she watched the woman from a short distance. Am I mistaken? She shook her head, thinking that it had to be Joan. Then she immediately darted before Joan and pulled her into a tight embrace.

“Joan!” A longing nostalgia was laced in Jessica’s tone.
