Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2272

Out of a sudden, Caspian emerged from the door and boomed loudly, "Larry, how's it going?"

Since when was he discharged from the hospital?

"What are you doing here? Go back to the hospital!" Larry commanded angrily.

How can I possibly be resting in such a situation? If so, I'm afraid you and Joan would have divorced by the time I got out of the hospital.

Caspian was heartbroken when he saw Larry in such a dispirited state.

"Larry, let me go look for her. Please leave it to me. I will explain for you since she doesn't want to see you," he suggested anxiously.

Indeed. If Caspian's the one who talks to her, the outcome might be different. But we don't even know where she is!

"Joan has moved out," Larry said faintly.

In slight bewilderment, Caspian backed out a few steps. He had predicted this development, but it had happened sooner than he expected.

"It's okay. I will replace her." Caspian patted Larry's shoulder firmly and left the office after that.

Larry was left alone sitting on the couch, his moist eyes staring perplexedly at the ceiling.

This is the first time we've had such a serious argument. This is also the first time she has separated herself from me. What's next? Is she going to divorce me?

"What did you say? That's impossible. Joan seemed fine that day we met. How could she move out so abruptly?" Nancy questioned with a puzzled look.

"Nancy. This is for real. What did you guys talk about that day? Did she mention anything about her moving out?" Caspian was stomping impatiently around the room as he spoke.

"Nope. That day, Joan said she didn't want to talk about Larry, so we had a good time shopping together."

What a foolish woman. If Joan refused to talk about it, the situation's probably serious! How could you actually think she was fine?

Caspian shut his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to collect himself.

"Fine. I understand. One more thing. Dustin is a good friend of Jory. If he happens to mention anything to him, you have to tell me."

Hearing that, Nancy put up her guard instinctively. Dustin is caught in between this? That's not surprising. After all, he has been waiting for Joan all this while.

"Got it. I promise I will call you if anything occurs." Upon saying that, Nancy ended the call.

"Who was it? You sounded so emotional." The second she hung up, Jory's voice echoed from the living room.

"Um... It was just an old friend. He was in trouble with his work, so he called to seek my advice." Nancy walked towards Jory and sat down slowly beside him. "Jory, could I ask you something?" The man turned towards her and gently put a strawberry between her lips.

Even though they had been married for years, he still treated her as if she was his first crush. Nancy felt extremely loved by the way he pampered her.

"What is it? Speak your mind," Jory responded softly.

Nancy worded her question carefully. "If I have a conflict with your best friend one day, whose side will you be on? Mine or his?"

Jory was startled for a while, but soon his expression resumed to normal. To him, this was an irrelevant question, as he would never allow this dilemma to occur. "Such a thing won't happen," he answered.

"I said what if. Please answer me." She shook his arms flightily.

"Nancy, I'm a reasonable guy, so I will side whoever has the right reason. Or else, I will keep myself out of it and side neither."

Nonetheless, Nancy was somewhat disappointed with his frank answer. Even though she wanted him to be honest, yet at this point, she might prefer a white lie.

"Alright, stop overthinking things. Nothing will happen between you and Dustin. The both of you are from different worlds, and you two hardly meet once a month. I see no chance of conflict." Jory wrapped his arm around her waist and comforted her.
