Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2340

"Hey, you're up early!" Joan replied. She's never got up so early.

After washing up, the duo went for breakfast.

"Where do you want to go today?" Joan eyed the girl seriously.

Since she had no preference, she would go with the girl's choice.

"Well, I wanna go skiing."

What kind of hobby is this? Joan was surprised.

Not that she did not want to go, she found the sport dangerous.

"Um, are you sure?"

"Yes. I've long wanted to do it," the girl affirmed while drinking her water.

Alright. We'll go then. Joan agreed reluctantly.

The ski area looked deserted, probably because it was a weekday. The girl looked around and suddenly yelled at the sky, scaring Joan, who flashed her a smile.

"Come on, Joan. Let's ski. How about we have a match?" the girl challenged while clapping her hands.

The terrifyingly steep slope was intimidating.

"I don't know how to ski, so I'll play by myself here. You can go ahead." Joan sounded embarrassed.

"Uh, let me teach you first."

At her insistence, Joan had no choice but to agree.

I can do it! She cheered herself on.

"Wow, Joan, you're quite a quick-learner!" the girl exclaimed after a while.

Joan suddenly found skiing fun, so she slowly warmed up to it.

I can take Lucius skiing in the future. A smile of satisfaction crept across her face.

"Alright. I'm gonna let go. Joan, you need to practice on your own, okay?"

Joan straightened her back and mustered up the courage to give the girl a nod.

Everything went smoothly, and she was delighted to learn the technique in no time.

"Ah!" she suddenly shrieked and fell down.

"Joan! Joan, are you okay? Here. Let me help you up." The terrified girl was by her side.

However, Joan couldn't move a muscle as she lay in the snow.

What's happening? There was a trace of horror in her eyes. I can't lift my elbow!

"Joan, wait here! I'm calling the ambulance." The girl immediately made a call on her phone.

After some time, Joan arrived at the hospital.

The doctor put her on an IV drip as she lay in bed, sound asleep. The girl sat by the bed and kept a vigil.

"You're quite a strange pair. The adult suffers from a fracture, but the kid is fine," a nurse muttered. The girl suddenly felt guilty.

"Uhm..." Joan slowly opened her eyes.

"Joan, you're awake? How are you feeling? Are you in pain?" The girl was in tears.

"Why are you crying? Look. I'm fine now." Joan stroked her hair.

What's so fine? Your arm's broken. The girl wept guilty.

"Alright. Stop crying. I know that my arm's broken. What did the doctor say? Surgery or a cast?"

Despite her calm demeanor, Joan was on the verge of breaking down deep down. If Larry were there, she would have cried her eyes out in his arms. However, the one in front of her at this moment was just a child.

"Joan, you hate me now, don't you?" the girl asked.

"Silly girl, why should I? Accidents happen. Enough with the crying. Let's see how the doctor is going to treat me."
