Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2789

She Need Not Worry About Lucius Being Mocked

"It's Larry," Madam Yu replied bluntly.

Joan lifted her eyes to the ceiling. Tears filled her eyes again. That rogue! Why didn't he tell me?

"Joan, it's all over now. Don't be sad over it."

Yeah, we must look forward but who is the person who stabbed me in the back? Where is that trouble-maker now? Joan was lost in thought again.

Nearby, Delilah and Lucius were still exchanging news and looking very excited while Caiden was sitting on the sofa enjoying their joyful reunion.

Some time passed and Larry returned, looking casual and relaxed.

Only Joan, Delilah, and Lucius were in the living room at that time.

"Thank you." Joan went up to him and held his hand tightly and her voice was very emotional. Larry pulled her into his arms and kissed her hair tenderly. "Silly, we are husband and wife. There is no need to thank me."

The corners of Joan's turned upwards in a smile.

Even though Joan kept questioning Larry about who the perpetrator was, he did not tell her the whole truth as he did not want his beloved to feel fearful again. Everything was back to normal.

"Larry, why didn't you tell me the truth?" Joan asked rather angrily back in their room.

Why are there so many questions? Larry stretched out his right hand and pulled her into his arms. He held her tightly in order to enjoy the warmth of her body. "Isn't it good for us to live peacefully like this? Why do we need to pursue the things that have passed?" Larry's voice was a little low but it made a lot of sense. Just let it be so that all will be well as long as everyone lives in peace.

"Larry, do you think I'm a bad woman?" Joan suddenly raised her head, looked at the beloved person in front of her seriously, and asked slowly. Whether it was before or now, there were many people who framed her to make her look bad. This somewhat scared her.

There were times when she felt confused, wondering how many people hated her that they would go to such lengths to persecute her.

"No, in my mind, you are always the best." Larry's words immediately touched Joan. What else could I ask for?

On the other hand, Della was totally infuriated.

"Dad, why on earth did you do that?" Della confronted her Dad, asking coldly.

What other reason could there be? Of course, the less trouble there is, the better! This girl is too reckless and so, that is reason she caused so much trouble. If Larry had not told me about her deeds, she would have been sent to the police station already!

"Della, will you listen to me please? If you want a career, just work hard but I beg you not to do such stupid things in the future."

Fred spoke coldly which made Della feel uncomfortable. Does he know? Della felt a sense of guilt as she looked at her Dad.

"Okay, I don't want to nag anymore. You behave yourself. If necessary, I'll keep you a prisoner at home." Fred's voice was harsh and Della felt displeased.

Who could have leaked my secret? She folded her arms, looking ferocious. She had done everything in secret leaving no trace of her misdeeds yet it was now an open secret.

"Ms. Duff, what would you like to eat for dinner tonight?" The housemaid came over and asked tentatively.

"Nothing!" With that, she turned around and went upstairs.

Her character and behavior had not changed one bit. Looking at her retreating figure, the housemaid shook her head, looking hurt.

From the time Larry shared the audio and video clip to the general public, Joan was able to move around in the open without fear. She need not worry about people talking behind her back or that Lucius would be mocked.
