Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2791
Have Some Breakfast
She had waited for a long time for this day to come.
"Okay." She held Larry tight and her heart was filled with bliss.
They continued whispering sweet nothings as they returned home.
"Larry!" Suddenly, Joan screamed with a voice filled with terror. Larry immediately ran over and was stunned by the sight that met his eyes. The whole house was in a mess.
Who had been here? Immediately, Larry ran into Delilah's room and then into Lucius's room only to replace that neither of them was in. Without any hesitation, he took out his mobile phone and dialed. Very quickly, Caspian and Jessica arrived.
"Larry, should we call the police?" Caspian's gaze was steely. How evil of anyone to attack a child and an old woman.
"No, not yet." Larry waved his hand to signal in the negative. Before knowing the facts, it is best not to be rash.
Ding Ding Ding!
Suddenly, the landline rang on the table next to him, and Joan immediately answered the phone, as if expecting something.
"Joan?" There was a disguised voice on the phone. Joan was taken aback and then reacted, "It's me."
"Good! Tomorrow, you come alone, bring five million..."
That was for money? Joan's eyes gradually dimmed. In less than two minutes, the caller hung up. Joan slumped onto the sofa and her expression showed she was a little frightened.
"How did they go? What did he say?" Larry grabbed her arm tightly asking anxiously. Caspian and Jessica looked very worried, awaiting her explanation...
Joan slowly raised her head and twitched her nose. Then she cleared her throat, trying to calm herself down. "Larry, I need five million."
Larry looked at Joan. Although he was a little surprised, he did not show any unusual reaction. He replied firmly, "Okay, I will give you five million."
Slowly, Joan got up and entered the bedroom nearby.
She did not want to talk. In other words, the caller did not allow her to say a word to the others or else Delilah and Lucius would be killed.
She was lying in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. Her eyes stared straight at the crescent moon outside the window and she was brewed in sorrows. Her fists were clenched and her whole body trembled.
Ms. Young and Lucius, you must be strong! I will definitely save you!
The three people in the living room sat on the sofa, looking up at the ceiling, deep in thought.
"Tomorrow, you will follow Joan." Suddenly, Jessica said softly and coldly.
Caspian looked at Jessica without a word but just nodded instead. They all knew that Joan was not herself at this point and naturally they all guessed that the caller must have threatened her. "You guys go home first." Larry said softly, hanging his head.
What could we do at home? Jessica glanced at him but said nothing. It was not as if she could be unconcerned.
"Tonight, we are sleeping in your home." With that, Jessica threw herself on the sofa.
Early the next day, sunlight shone on the ground through the window. At that moment, Joan turned over, and it so happened that a ray of sunlight lit up her face.
"Joan," Larry called her softly but she did not respond, perhaps because she was too tired. Larry did not keep calling her but turned and left the room.
After some time, Joan finally woke up. When she walked out of the room, she was stunned by the sight in front of her. There were two people lying on the sofa, sleeping soundly.
Didn't they go home last night? Joan walked past them straight to the refrigerator from which she took out a bottle of mineral water and started drinking.
"Have some breakfast." In the dining room, Larry spoke tenderly.
"Okay." Joan went straight into the dining room, sat down obediently, and started eating the sandwiches.
