Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2433
"Hi Ms. Young, is Lucius home? Can I talk to him?" requested Joan carefully.
"Lucius, your mom is looking for you," shouted Delilah.
"Where are you, Mom?" asked Lucius immediately. He sounded worried.
"I can't go home just yet. Lucius, are you okay? Are you in shock?" asked Joan.
"Not at all. Don't worry, Mom. I'm a big boy. Still, why aren't you home yet? I'm so worried about you," said Lucius sadly.
Joan felt touched upon hearing those words. At that moment, she thought that everything she did till then was worth it.
Meanwhile, Larry was working away in his office. for some reason, Norton Corporation had been dealing with a lot of issues lately. All that stress was made worse when Joan got hurt, and he was feeling a little tired.
I'm so glad to have Jessica helping me out by taking care of Caspian and Joan.
"Larry," greeted Jessica as she entered the room.
"What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be in the hospital?" asked Larry immediately.
"Everything's fine at the hospital, so don't worry. How are you? Have you eaten?" asked Jessica, a hint of worry shining in her eyes.
"I'm not hungry," replied the man nonchalantly.
He hasn't eaten all day. How is he not hungry? What? Does he think he is? A machine? Jessica walked over and placed a container of food on his desk.
"Joan and Caspian had already eaten, so I came to deliver this to you," said Jessica.
"Thank you for everything," said Larry. He had shifted his gaze to her and his eyes were filled with sincerity as he spoke.
Even though she had sacrificed and spent a lot of her free time in the hospital, Jessica never regretted that decision.
When she was at her lowest and weakest point, Larry had stayed by her side and never abandoned her. He patiently consoled her and helped her even when it caused a rift between him and Joan. It even got the entire world to misunderstand him. Hence, she would not give up easily when it was her turn to step up because Larry needed her.
"It's no trouble at all. Anyway, you need to take care of yourself, too. If you fall from exhaustion, I will have to take care of all three of you idiots," teased Jessica.
This annoying woman. She really doesn't have a filter when she speaks. Darn, those are some hurtful words, thought Larry.
Caiden was sitting on the sofa in the living room. He kept checking his watch, looking as if he was waiting for someone.
It took some time before that familiar yet estranged face showed up.
"Dad!" exclaimed Caiden. Startled, Keith turned around and looked at his son, who was standing in front of him. After that, he walked over.
"It's late. Why are you still up?" asked Keith.
"Did you go after Joan Watts?" demanded Caiden.
Keith adjusted his clothes and fell silent. I guess what Nancy said was true then, thought Caiden.
"This has nothing to do with her. It's all on me," informed Caiden.
How can this have nothing to do with her? If it hadn't been for that woman, you would not have gone so insane to the point where you ignore the pride of the Owens family and proposed to her! Keith glared at him but had no intention of speaking to his son.
"Please stop bothering her. There's nothing between us anymore," added Caiden.
Those words got Keith's interest piqued. They broke up?
"Since I've decided to return to the Owens family and go work at the company, it's only natural that I am no longer burdened by matters of the heart. Don't worry. I will focus on work from now on," promised Caiden.
Keith grinned in satisfaction when he saw his son behaving that way.
"Since Caiden has already made things clear, just make him that promise. Joan Watts never really did anything bad to us, anyway," said Caiden's mom suddenly as she walked over.
Keith turned to his son, then his wife, before nodding slightly.
"Caiden, you're no longer a kid, and I pray that you will focus on your career. A man can live without a wife or money, but he cannot survive without a career. In other words, you'll basically have it all once your career blooms," advised Keith sternly.
