Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2245

"Larry, how are the things with Jessica's parents?" Caspian asked.

Larry was taken aback by his words. It had been days, and he had completely forgotten to ask Jessica about it.

"I'll take a look at it tomorrow. I've been busy recently," Larry replied.

"She'll be informing her relatives about it tomorrow, so I'd say she'll be busy for the next two days. Do help her out." Larry could hear that Caspian truly cared for that woman from the sincerity of his tone. "What's the matter?" Joan softly asked as she held Larry's hand.

"No wonder she came to look for me today... Joan, I don't think I'll have the time to keep you company for the next few days. Jessica needs to take care of her parents' funeral. You know this too. She's been living overseas in the past," Larry explained.

Pity surfaced in Joan's eyes.

Although she did not like the way Larry spent time with Jessica, she could understand what Jessica was feeling. She must be feeling horrible.

"It's okay. You should help her out, but be mindful not to cross the line with her," Joan warned as she tugged the man's tie.

"I know. Don't worry. Your husband only has you in his heart." With that said, Larry pressed a light kiss on her hand.

At night, when Joan was sitting on the couch, a sigh abruptly escaped her.

A woman who had encountered a sudden incident like this would feel anxious, lost, and melancholic. I wonder how long it will take for Jessica to walk out of this misery.

"What's the matter? Did something happen? Why do you look tired?" Delilah inquired as she walked over.

"I'm fine. Ms. Young, how is the garden recently?" Joan asked instead.

"Everything's fine. By the way, when are you planning to return to work at the supermarket? Dustin keeps asking me about you whenever I meet him," Delilah complained.

The misunderstanding between Larry and she have been resolved, and they now trust each other again. Isn't it time to return to the main track?

At that thought, Delilah glanced at her with hopeful eyes.

"Yes, I'll be going back to work tomorrow," Joan replied.

It had been a long while since she stopped working. As a supervisor of the supermarket, it was unreasonable that she had been absent from work for such a lengthy period. It was time for her to return to her post.

With her mind set, she clapped her hands with a look of determination.

Before the sun rose the following day, Joan was already busying herself in the kitchen.

Milk. Sandwich. A banana. Yes, everything's set. After peeking at her watch, she grabbed a jacket and walked out of the living room.

After some time, Lucius and Delilah trudged out of their bedrooms, yawning.

"Grandma, why are you up so early? Breakfast's already ready," Lucius mumbled as he brushed his teeth.

Delilah snapped out of her groggy state instantly.

I didn't make breakfast. Did Joan do this? Staring at the table full of food, a small smile grew on her lips.

Is she finally going back to her normal routine now? That's good.

"Come and have your breakfast. Your mom woke up and made this early in the morning," Delilah said with a chuckle.

"Wow! Really? Is Mom returning to her mighty state?" Lucius exclaimed loudly.

It had been a long while since Joan had made breakfast for the boy. It was because she had been fighting with Larry. "Our supervisor's back!"

"Welcome back!"

"Ms. Watts, are you pregnant?" a woman abruptly asked as she walked over.

What? Why is she asking me this question? Joan eyed the woman curiously.

"All right, that's enough. Don't tease her anymore. Joan, what have you been busy with? We haven't seen you for quite a while. They've been saying that you're pregnant and about to quit your job," one of the staff members muttered.
