Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2875

Huh! So Jory is aware of this! Della's face turned grim in an instant.

Nancy grabbed the chance to put on a show by struggling and yelling exaggeratively, “What areyou doing? Let go of me! I won't leave if she refuses to leave as well!”

Jory shrugged her arm off deliberately and pretended to be infuriated by her. Putting on a grimlook, he scoffed, “There are countless women without a sense of shame in this world. Do you wantto be like them as well? I'm really disappointed with you!”

Upon hearing Jory's harsh words, Nancy was somehow overjoyed and applauded silently by givinghim a thumbs-up. On the other hand, Della was really offended by his sarcastic words.

“Jory Synder, what do you mean? Are you hinting that I'm one of them?” she was almostenunciating the last few words with gritted teeth.

In a blink of an eye, there was a change in her expression as a wave of fury surged from within her.“Ms. Duff, I'm sorry for being blunt. I don't mean it. I was just reprimanding my wife to wake herup!” Jory pretended to be embarrassed by making an insincere apology.

At the peak of her rage, Della stormed out of Larry's office.

They are all foolish fellows with no manners! Once seated in her luxury car, she stepped on theaccelerator pedal and sped off.

Larry was at the seaside, standing not far away from a church. “Caspian, is the information reliable?”he asked sternly with a solemn look on his face.

"Yeah, Larry, it's provided by the pastor. I'm sure it's true,” Caspian replied firmly.

Joan, you are finally here and I will get to see you again! Larry gazed at the church sorrowfully. Eventhough she has lost her memories, she still loves the sea! I bet that was why Jake arranged for thewedding ceremony to be held in the church by the seaside. However, she has forgotten about me!Larry reminisced about their grand wedding years ago. Snippets of beautiful moments betweenthem flowed into his mind like never-ending waves. We were deeply in love with each other at thattime; yet, she has forgotten all about it!

The next day, Larry reached the main entrance of the church with Caspian and Jessica early in themorning. He waited desperately for the arrival of the wedding car.

“Here it is!” Caspian said excitedly as he patted Larry's shoulder.

"Hold my hand, Joan, be careful,” Jake said gently and helped her out of the wedding car.

Joan raised her head and looked at the grand church in front of her. Despite the breathtaking viewof the majestic church and the picturesque scenery, she felt uneasy as a series of inexplicablecomplex emotions started to well up within her.

Joan Watts, you must hold yourself back! The man who stands right in front of you now is Jake, yourfuture husband! He has sacrificed a lot by taking great care of you and being protective of you allthis while. There's no other way to repay his kindness apart from being his faithful spouse for therest of his life!

Nonetheless, love could never be forced.

The pastor furrowed his brows as he observed the bride and bridegroom for the day. Thebridegroom's face was undoubtedly lit up by joviality; yet, the visible sorrow in the brides eyesreflected her reluctance.

“Miss, do you really love him?” he approached Joan and asked meaningfully as he gazed at her withhis penetrating eyes.

This was indeed a challenging question which put Joan in a dilemma. If she answered honestly, thepastor would surely call off the officiation of the wedding ceremony. If she lied to the pastor, itwould indirectly indicate that she was not truthful to herself as well.

Forget about it! Everything is worth it as long as Jake and I can spend the rest of our life togetherpeacefully.

“Yeah, I love him,” she forced herself to nod and reply instantly.

The pastor could sense that she was not being truthful to herself when she replied by avoidinghaving any eye contact with him. Shaking his head, he let out a deep sigh and walked away.

"Joan, what's the matter? What did he tell you?” Jake approached her and asked softly.

Since the pastor was not one of his people, he would not be pressured by his background and easilysuccumb to him.

“Nothing actually. We were just chatting casually,” Joan replied nonchalantly.

Is she telling the truth? She doesn't look good as well. As a bride, there is not the least bit of delighton her face! Jake's heart was filled with utter uneasiness as he gazed at the woman in front of him.A while later, the door of the church was closed. The pastor was about to start officiating thewedding ceremony.

Only a few guests attended the wedding ceremony. It was all arranged by Jake.

“Mr. Jake Wilson, are you willing to take this woman whose hand you now hold, to be your true andwedded wife; and do you solemnly promise to spend your whole life protecting her, taking goodcare of her..." the pastor began to read out the marriage officiant.

“I do,” Jake gazed at Joan lovingly and replied excitedly.

“Ms. Joan Watts, do you take this man to be your husband, to have and to hold from this dayforward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer...”

Staring at Jake who was standing right in front of her, Joan's mind drifted into bewilderment.

No! I'm not willing! Tears started to well up in her eyes. Right that instant, Larry's face flashed acrossher mind.

“Joan, what's the matter with you? The pastor is waiting for your reply,” Jake urged her anxiously.
