Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2457

At that instant, the air fell into an awkward silence, while a dark expression loomed over Joan's face. This was exactly what she feared to hear the most. On the other hand, Caiden was genuinely worried about her reaction after hearing this.

"Alright, alright. Just explain to him later." Caiden patted on Joan's shoulder, trying to end the topic.

"Caiden, please answer me. Do you really want to be my Grandpa? Actually, it's not impossible." Lucius had not given up on questioning Caiden.

Why is he so nosy all of a sudden? Where did he learn this? Caiden was at a loss by Lucius's interrogation.

"Kid, not only do I like your Grandma, but I also like you and your Mom."

"What? No way! Mom belongs to Dad, so you cannot like Mom!" Lucius yelled aloud.

Great! This only makes it worse! At that instant, Caiden held his head in both hands, out of words.

"That's enough, Lucius. Stop making fun of Caiden." Joan came to his rescue.

What? So he is just joking with me? Caiden looked up at Lucius, only to see him gazing at him with an amused look.

He realized he had been fooled by yet a kid. "Lucius, let's see how I'll deal with you!" He stood up to chase Lucius.

"Caiden, how could you be such a fool? Can't you see I am just joking around? Hahaha..."

Both ran wildly around the living room, whereas Delilah was busy preparing a meal in the kitchen while Joan was setting up the dining table. What a warm and lovely scene it was. Nonetheless, those heartwarming moments were all secretly captured, possibly becoming another time bomb for Joan.

The next morning, Joan was wakened up by the warm sunlight that slipped through the curtain in her room.

While still in bed, her arms extended into a stretch while she took a long breath. Her eyes were still reluctant to open to face this world.

"Time for breakfast." A familiar voice made her heart fell with a thud.

What's happening? Isn't that Caiden's voice? Am I dreaming?

Joan laid a few slaps on her own face, trying to clear her head.

"Ouch!" Next, she pinched hard on her thigh to make sure she was not dreaming.

"Why are you torturing yourself in the morning?" Caiden's voice echoed again.

It's Caiden for real! She ran out of her room and scanned through the house confusedly. "Didn't you leave last night?" she asked directly.

"I wanted to leave, but Lucius kept holding on to my leg, so I could not," Caiden replied.

Lucius, what have you done? Why do you always come up with such antics? If this spread out, what will people think of it? And if Larry replaces out, he's gonna be jealous again.

"Don't worry. I will make sure to explain to Larry later." Caiden could read her mind.

He knew she prioritized Larry's feeling in all circumstances.

Compared to before, Caiden no longer tried to get into a blind alley. He no longer thought of how to pursue Joan. Instead of saying that he had given up on her, the fact was that he had seen through all these.

If you really love someone, you will respect her choice. My biggest wish is for her to be happy. That's the only thing that matters. Caiden cast a smile at Joan without saying anything.

That particular smile made Joan stunned momentarily, for that was the sincerest smile she had ever seen. That was a real smile of a true friend.

"Thanks a lot for breakfast!" Joan tried to collect herself from emotions.

"Welcome. You should go and wake Lucius, or else he might be late for school," Caiden reminded.

In truth, he is also a good family guy! Joan smiled back at Caiden before heading towards Lucius's room.
