Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2598

"Joan, I beg you to sober up," Jessica said while caressing Joan's face gently.

"Larry, I had a terrible dream just now. Faye was gone. She left me a letter stating that she had to return to her hometown to take care of her family. I didn't want her to leave..." Joan murmured as she looked a Larry, who stood not far away from her.

"Joan, that's enough!" Larry suddenly shouted.

Joan lowered her gaze and stopped talking.

"Faye is dead. For how long do you want to remain in a daze?" Larry continued yelling in the ward.

Jessica glanced at them awkwardly, unsure of what she ought to say.

"Joan, you're an adult. I beg you to stop acting childishly!" Larry added furiously.

The next moment, tears rolled down Joan's face.

"Larry, I think that's enough," Jessica gazed at Larry and advised him.

Bang!

Larry flung the door open and left, leaving Joan and Jessica in the ward.

"Joan, Faye met a car accident. It really was an accident, and you don't have to overthink it," Jessica said gently while holding Joan's hands.

"Jessica, do you think I'm black-hearted too?" Joan asked out of nowhere.

"Joan, you're not a vicious person. To me, you're the kindest woman I've ever met. So, please be strong. You still have to run your photography studio and take care of Lucius..." Jessica reminded her. She's right. I've so many things to do, how can I waste time grieving the past? Joan wiped away her tears and pull herself together.

"I want to go home," After a while, she said resolutely.

Seeing that Joan finally became spirited, Jessica beamed in satisfaction.

"Have you really thought it through?" Jessica wanted to reconfirm.

After all, she didn't want to see Lucius and Delilah affected by her negative emotions.

"Yes," Joan reassured her.

After Joan was discharged, Jessica immediately brought her back to Delilah's house.

"Mom, where have you been lately? I miss you so much," Lucius ran into Joan's arms and said loudly.

"Mom has been busy lately, and so I hardly had time to come back and visit you," Joan came up with an excuse.

"Mom, what's wrong with your eyes? Did you cry? Who bullied you?" Lucius asked heartbrokenly while caressing her face.

Joan unknowingly felt sorrow when she was looking at her kid. The next moment, tears began to well up in her eyes.

"Nothing. I stayed up late recently," Joan replied.

Meanwhile, Jessica was relieved to see that Joan and Lucius still loved each other as before.

"What happened to her?" Suddenly, Delilah dragged Jessica aside and asked. Jessica could sense the worriedness in Delilah's eyes as she gazed at Joan. "She should have fully recovered now," Jessica answered Delilah, yet she wasn't exactly sure about it.

Given that women had always been fickle by nature, she wasn't confident enough to assure Delilah that Joan would stay emotionally stable from now on. "Alright, Lucius. Can you do your homework? Mom has to go to the photography studio to deal with some matters there," Joan said, patting his head lightly. "Sure. Go ahead, Mom. Also, please be careful." With that, Lucius returned to his room.

What a well-behaved and matured kid! Jessica admired Joan as she watched Lucius leaving.

"What's wrong? Do you envy her? In that case, you should have your own kid!" Delilah teased Jessica and nudged her back.

"What are you talking about, Ms. Young?" Jessica replied embarrassedly.

"Don't be shy. I mean, it's a matter of time before you have children." Delilah went into the kitchen after giving Jessica the piece of advice.

"Let's go to the photography studio," After talking to Lucius, Joan held Jessica's hand and left the house.

Does she want to bury herself in work right after she pulled herself together? Jessica gazed at Joan in bewilderment.
