Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2662

Third Wheel

Joan didn't know whether she should feel happy or sorry for Dustin.

However, she didn't know that there was actually nothing between Dustin and Abelyn. Instead, they were just buddies.

"Abelyn, watch your language!" Dustin whispered as he nudged her.

"What are you talking about? Dustin, there's no need to stand on ceremony. Joan is not an outsider. Why are you being so inhibited?" Abelyn patted Dustin's shoulder forcefully and replied. "It's fine. The more the merrier." Joan answered awkwardly.

"See? She's so kind and generous. And look at you! Don't be such a petty man. You're acting like I'm not welcomed here." Abelyn pouted as she said.

"Excuse me, waiter!" Abelyn raised her right hand and shouted.

The atmosphere throughout the whole meal was really awkward. No one was enjoying the dinner.

Abelyn was blabbering on and on throughout the dinner session. There was no chance for Joan and Dustin to chip in at all.

They couldn't tell if Abelyn was really drunk or she was just pretending to be drunk. She kept on insulting Joan indirectly. Dustin couldn't even stop her no matter how hard he tried. Apart from that, Joan had been replaceing excuses to escape several times, but in the end, Abelyn managed to drag her back to her seat.

"Abelyn, you've gone too far!" Dustin yelled at her.

Bang!

All of a sudden, Abelyn threw her wine glass onto the floor.

The glass shattered into a thousand pieces.

"Dustin, why are you shouting? You've never yelled at me before! I can't believe you shout at me because of this woman!" Abelyn cried and said it out loud.

The other customers shook their heads sympathetically when they witnessed that scene.

"Is it love triangle?"

"It does look like that..."

"That guy is such a ladies' man..."

Some people started gossiping about it.

"Come on. Let's go back!" As Dustin said, he dragged Abelyn and walked out immediately.

"Joan, go back to the hotel first!" Dustin turned around and told her.

A flicker of sorrow gleamed in Joan's eyes as she watched them walk away.

Why is Abelyn picking on me? Why does she keep giving me a hard time? Joan let out a sigh and left.

"Hey, you guys haven't settled the bill!" The lady boss shouted from behind.

"I'll be right there!" Joan immediately turned around and rushed over to pay the bill.

"Miss, I think you better quit." The lady boss looked at her and said suddenly.

Quit? Joan lifted her head and gave her an indifferent look.

"You're so pretty, and you have a nice figure too. Why do you have to be a homewrecker?" The lady boss was busying with her work while saying that.

What? Her words struck Joan like a bolt from the blue. She was confused.

"What are you talking about?" Feeling speechless, Joan asked.

"Come on, I saw that just now. You don't have to hide it. That guy is indeed good-looking, but there are still so many other handsome guys out there in the world. There's no need for you to be the third wheel in a relationship."

Joan immediately grew angry upon hearing her words.

"First of all, I'm not being a third wheel. Next, I have a boyfriend. But it's not the guy that you saw previously. Thirdly, lady boss, I don't think you are in a position to judge people, especially on their private matters." Joan left immediately after saying that.

Who does she think she is to judge other people when she doesn't even know the truth?

Joan directly returned to the hotel after leaving the restaurant.

"Joan, are you back at the hotel?" Dustin hurriedly asked over the phone.

"Yeah, I'm at the hotel already." Joan answered.

"I'm sorry about tonight. Abelyn was drunk. That's why she is being rude to you. Please don't take it to the heart..." Dustin explained in a low voice.

"It's fine." Joan replied calmly.

Hearing her words, Dustin became speechless.

Deep down, he knew that Joan was actually bothered by Abelyn's words. She must have taken it to her heart.
