Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2857

"Yes, someone did,” replied Abelyn firmly, “That good-for-nothing Jake bullied both Jessica and me.”Uh... Dustin was momentarily taken aback. He was quick to regain his footing, though Oh, I thoughtCaspian was the one who bullied her...

Larry entered the room slowly. He looked burdened like he had a weight on his heart. He was a littleworried about Joan's wellbeing. More than that, he worried that Jake would take advantage of Joanin her current state.

Joan has always been a sympathetic and innocent woman. She will be tricked if that assh*le, Jake,put on a pitiful expression. She's even more vulnerable now that she has lost her memories.

“Larry, where should we start searching for Joan?” asked Caspian immediately and anxiously.Where do we begin? I don't know either! Larry tilted his head up. He closed his eyes and looked sodevastated that everyone looked away in response. They felt bad for him.

"She might already be married to Jake by the time we found her,” murmured Larry suddenly. Thosewords got everyone to panic.

No, that can never happen! Dustin gritted his teeth and looked unsettled.

“Larry, are we really going to just sit here and do nothing? Isn't there anything we can do?" askedJessica softly. Her voice was trembling a little at that moment.

What else can we do? Larry honestly had no idea what else they could do.

“How about we spy on Jake's villa and wait? Regardless of where Joan is now, she will return to thatvilla eventually, right?” suggested Dustin firmly.

Those words made sense. Jessica tapped the guy's shoulder lightly and grinned. Similarly, Larry'seyes glowed with hope, but that hope faded soon after. Jake is smarter than that. He would'vealready anticipated it.

“Great, then it's decided. We will hang out near Jake's villa tomorrow and replace a spot to spy on it.Our mission will be to replace Joan,” announced Abelyn in a very sincere tone.

Among the people in the room, some have not known Joan for long, but every single one of themcared for Joan. They wanted what was best for her.

Larry was touched when he saw how determined everyone was.

“Hey, aren't you people being a little too mean? How can you not count me in for something likethis?" complained Nancy suddenly as she barged in.

Yep, they did not invite Nancy to the meeting, nor did they include her in their discussion sessions.The reason behind that was simple. She was a mother and needed to prioritize her child.

“Calm down, Nancy. We'll go look for Joan. All you have to do is stay home and take care of thebaby,” said Abelyn, who had run over and hugged Nancy's arm.

“What the hell? Do you guys even take me as a part of the gang? Seriously, that is f*cked up! I amsomeone who values friendship so I want to help, okay? Besides, I have access to valuableinformation,” shared Nancy after clearing her throat.

Everyone gathered around her after hearing what she said. They stared at her with anticipation.Seeing those eager, familiar faces around her, Nancy crossed her arms and deliberately made themwait.

In the end, some of them finally lost their patience.

"Oy, speak up, Nancy Barrymore. What do you know?” demanded Caspian loudly while lightlyshoving her shoulder.

Oh, how dare he talk to me in that tone? I knew it. Men turn around and ignore their ex as soon asthey found someone new! thought Nancy. She glared over once before harrumphing and continuedmaking them wait.

“Come on, Nancy. Please tell us,” begged Jessica.

“Ah, alright, alright. I heard from the news from Jory, but it looks like Joan and Jake have alreadyconfirmed their union. They even finished shooting their wedding photos and are planning for thewedding now," answered Nancy carefully and softly as she examined Larry's expression.

The aura in the room turned strange after Nancy uttered those words. It was as if even the air itselfhad frozen in place. Everyone simultaneously shifted their gaze to Larry. Heartache and pity shone intheir eyes.
