Never Late, Never Away

Chapter 3118

Megan did not have much to pack as her wardrobe was a measly collection of hand-me-downs.She emerged from her bedroom with all of her things in a single knapsack.

Before they left, she cast one last look at the cottage she had called home for the past dozen years.

Though she had always wanted nothing more than to leave, she felt her heart twinge when she realized she was never coming back.

At long last, they were ready to depart.

Megan glanced at Mia's bags and the money Garret had given her.

Compared to her own single knapsack, it was a pitiful sight.

Taylor could not contain his astonishment.

"Just this?" he asked in disbelief as he held up her bag.

Megan nodded in acknowledgment with a smile, acting as though it was a normal thing for village girls to do.

Mia rolled her eyes at Megan and Taylor.She took a step over the threshold but was halted by Garret's yells.

Glancing back, she found herself face to face with her tearful mother.

"When you get to the city" she sniffled, "be sure to call me all the time!"

Mia did not attempt to hide her disdain for the pathetic sight of her mother.
