Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2235
Joan scoffed at Caspian's words. She looked unhappy.
"Joan, it's late. You should go home soon. You're going to have a hard time hailing a cab. Larry's going to be back really soon. I'm sure he'll explain everything to you," Caspian stated determinedly. He hoped Larry didn't ruin the opportunity he had so carefully laid for him.
"I know. I'll get going then. I'll be here again tomorrow."
"Yup. Don't worry about it. You don't have to come here every day, you know. I'm feeling great!"
Caspian sounded nonchalant but in reality, his whole body was in tremendous pain.
Joan already knew of Caspian's bullheadedness. He'd never show his weaknesses in front of others. It's one of the reasons I respect him so much.
"Ok, stop moving around. You don't have to pretend you're okay. I'm leaving." Joan pushed open the doors of the ward.
She was stunned at the two visitors outside the ward.
"Oh, you're back. Caspian's inside, the two of you can visit him now. I'm going home." Joan made a move to leave.
"Wait!" Larry shouted.
"I'm just saying a few words to Caspian. Wait for me. I'll send you home," he added.
"No need. You haven't seen each other in days, so I'm sure you have a lot to catch up on. I won't disturb you then. Bye."
She left the hospital without a backward glance.
Joan had never thought a scene this dramatic would ever happen to her. She wasn't blind; she could tell that Larry and Jessica had just returned from overseas.
Did they go on a honeymoon? Or a romantic holiday? Could it actually be official business? Not like that's got anything to do with me. Whatever Larry does has nothing to do with me anymore. It's not like I can even help him with anything in the first place.
"Oh, you're back?" Caspian grunted.
Shocked at his rude tone, Jessica managed to collect herself quickly. Did he know what Larry and I did overseas?
"How are you coping? Are you feeling ok?" Jessica asked gently as she sat down beside his bed.
"Yeah, I'm feeling great. There's nothing for me to do anyway. I'm having the time of my life here," Caspian said sarcastically.
I can hear the jealousy oozing out of his words. Larry smirked.
"It's just a few days. It hasn't been that long," Larry answered.
"Larry, don't you think a few days is a long time? What's wrong with you?" Caspian shouted impassionedly. I guess he really likes Jessica.
Larry smiled, though there was no visible reaction from Jessica.
Maybe she doesn't like Caspian? She probably hasn't realized her own feelings for him yet.
"Jessica, it's really late. You should go back now. It's not good for a woman to be out alone at such a late hour," Caspian advised, though Jessica had no plans to go home.
Larry turned to Jessica. "You should get a hotel room tonight."
After some more small talk, Jessica left the ward, leaving Caspian and Larry alone.
"Larry, Joan found out about your overseas trip," Caspian said quietly.
"I know." Larry had guessed as much and was mentally preparing himself for the potential fallout. Some things are just too hard to explain.
"You should have a long talk with Joan. She's really upset. By the way, Joan has photos of you and Jessica together on her phone. There were photos from both of your overseas trips." Meanwhile, Caiden and Joan had met up in a café.
"Joan, are you ok?" Caiden asked.
"Yea," she replied indifferently.
