Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2521

"You, get up right now!" A man pointed in Joan's direction and barked at her.

Fear and apprehension filled the woman's face as she crouched in the corner.

"What do you guys want?" She shouted in despair.

"What? Do you want to stay here? Get up and leave!" The man growled at her.

Where to? Are they dragging me somewhere where they would torture me? Joan hugged herself as she attempted to calm herself down.

"Go, quit messing around!" The man pushed her out of the room.

Bang! The door slammed shut behind her, and Joan found herself all alone.

Where did they go? Puzzled, she glanced at her surroundings. She noticed there was a reception. Joan dashed over there and picked up the phone to dial Larry's number. "Larry! Please come pick me up! I'm scared!" She cried.

"Joan, don't cry. I'll come get you. Where are you?"

Larry was heartbroken to hear Joan cry. He could not bear to see the woman he loved suffer.

"I'm at the hotel. Hurry up and come pick me up!"

Larry dashed out of Della's place, got into his car, and stepped on the pedal toward the hotel.

He sped past countless red lights at breakneck speed, but no one stopped him. Larry had Caspian backing him up from behind.

"Miss, are you alright? Did someone hurt you?" A hotel receptionist noticed Joan's disheveled manner and asked.

"Yes, someone kidnapped me," Joan replied right away.

"I'll call the police!"

"No, you can't!" Joan stopped the receptionist right away.

Not long after, a black car stopped right in front of the hotel entrance. Larry got off the car and dashed into the lobby.

"I'm here!" Joan waved her hands at the man.

"I'm so tired!" She leaned against Larry's chest and sobbed.

Larry hugged the woman tightly in his embrace as he carefully regarded her in his arms. He had sworn that he would protect the woman with all his might. However, all he ever did was let her suffer. "Joan, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. Don't cry, okay?" Larry coaxed the woman as he pecked on her cheeks.

Joan was still in shock, and could not stop crying.

"Mister, here's a room key. You'd better bring her upstairs!" The receptionist who was just beside the duo said.

Larry carried Joan in his arms and took over the keys before heading upstairs.

He could not care less about going after the men who had kidnapped her as he only had eyes for Joan right then.

"Are you hurt anywhere?" Larry edged himself close to the woman's ears and asked.

"No," she replied in a soft voice.

"What did they do to you?" He pressed on.

"Nothing. They just confined me in a dark room, but I was so scared," Joan sobbed.

Larry knew that the woman had always been afraid of the dark. She must have been scared out of her wits to stay alone in that dark room all alone.

"Don't worry, everything is alright now. It was my fault for not protecting you properly," Larry mumbled.

"Larry, let's get married," Joan said out of the blue.

The man lifted her chin and stared longingly into her eyes. She's finally saying yes!

"Joan, are you really saying yes?"

"Yes," said the woman as she nodded.

"But..." Joan hesitated for a moment.

"I hope we could get Della's blessing," she added.

Larry hesitated for a moment before agreeing to it. Given Della's personality, the woman was sensible enough to give them her blessings.

"Larry, are you finally marrying Joan?" Caspian asked aloud in the office.

"What's there to shout about? Have you been picking up bad habits from Jessica?" Larry glared at Caspian and said.
