Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2659

Is It A Coincidence

"Ouch! Let go of my ear! Many people are watching us," Caspian growled.

She released her grip on him and crossed her arm, looking at him skeptically. "Answer me honestly. Is Larry business traveling with Della?"

Huh, how did she know about this? Caspian was quite surprised. "What are you trying to do?"

"Tell me already. Is it a yes or no?" Jessica spoke in a hushed tone.

Left with no choice, he told her the truth. "Yes!"

He could not bring himself to lie to the woman he loved.

Standing off to the side, Joan was startled by his loud "yes," so she turned around and gazed expectantly at Jessica. "What is it? Anything happened?"

"Oh, it's nothing. Joan, you must be tired..." Caspian hurriedly changed the topic, refusing to let her know about what he had told Jessica.

Before he could finish his sentence, Jessica cut him off, shouting, "She's not tired! Joan, I have to tell you something. Larry is..."

However, Caspian immediately cupped his hand over her mouth and pulled her away from Joan. "Jessica, be a good girl and go to the hospital now. You should hurry up!"

Huh, why does Jessica need to go to the hospital? Is she feeling unwell? She frowned in confusion as their retreating figures disappeared from her sight.

Since Larry was not in the office, she swept a glance over the employees before heading to the entrance on the ground floor.

It's time to make the final decision. Joan strode toward her car with decisive steps and drove forward.

In a café, Caiden sat in the corner and looked around while he enjoyed his coffee. It looked as if he was waiting for someone.

This was the first time Joan asked him out for a coffee, and it would be the last time as well.

"Hey, Caiden," Joan greeted as she pushed the door in.

"You're here." He stood up and beamed at her excitedly.

Sitting down on the couch at the corner, an air of seriousness fell on them as they began their discussion

"What did you say? Resign? Joan, are you sure about that?" Caiden could not help but raise his voice upon hearing her statement.

Never did he expect that she invited him here just to bid goodbye.

"Yes, you didn't hear me wrong. I want to quit," Joan repeated.

What's going on? Did anything happened? He looked at her in shock, unable to accept that she was going to leave the studio. "Why do you want to resign? Give me a solid reason."

She smiled and explained, "The photography studio is developing well, and that's the outcome of the hard work of the entire team, not just me alone. Besides, I'm quite tired and need some rest for a while." She couldn't replace any other reasonable reason, so she could only give him a rather general answer.

"You're tired?" He pondered for a while before saying a little too emotionally, "Well, I can give you some time to rest. Is a month enough for you?"

"Caiden, calm down. I'm emotionally exhausted. Do you understand?" She sighed.

Actually, the only reason why she wanted to quit was to keep a distance from Jake.

She wanted to leave Jake, Larry, and this city. Perhaps, only then would Jake stop causing trouble to Larry and hinder the development of Norton Corporation.

"Is this your final decision?" he asked.

She nodded in response. "Yeah, I've booked the ticket already."

It seems like she's determined to leave. Caiden lowered his head and sighed, dejected.

Besides his feelings for her, Joan was also extremely outstanding and capable at her work. It was a miracle that a newly established photography studio could achieve the results they had now, and it was mostly due to the effort she had poured into her work.

"Okay, I respect your decision," he relented eventually.

What can he say other than this? Yes, I can't deny the fact that I'm reluctant to let her go because I love her, but at the same time, I can't bear to see her suffer.

"Thank you," Joan said with a smile and took a sip of her coffee.

Just like that, they said goodbye and parted ways.

By the time Joan arrived home, the sun had already set. She sat on the sofa in the living room and waited for Delilah and Lucius to return home.
