Never Late, Never Away (Vivian and Finnick)
Chapter 3082

Chapter 3082

The people around her stared in shock, even Delilah.

Still, Joan continued eating, completely unbothered by the stares.

I couldn't care less about what they think.

Besides, I'm not the one paying.

Since they insisted on asking me out for a meal, then they shouldn't expect me to hold back. They're making it seem like I'm some stranger.

"Sorry, am I ordering too much?" Joan asked in a quiet voice as she covered her small mouth with one hand.

"Huh? No! No, please order whatever you want."

"Yes, you really should eat up. You could stand to gain more weight," one of them said slightly mockingly.

Okay.

Since you all are being so 'kind, I'll help myself.

Joan continued scarfing down her food relaxedly.

Delilah smirked at the scene unfolding in front of her. It seemed like Joan already had her own plan.

She really shouldn't be underestimated.

Only Joan could come up with such an idea, Delilah thought to herself.

Joan was still eating leisurely after a long time, causing the others to stare at her in confusion and disdain.

How could she still be eating so much after so long? they wondered.

"That little b*tch! She's doing it on purpose, isn't she? I know she is!" one of the women cursed outside the private room. "Shush! She can hear you!"

Joan had been able to hear everything going on outside since the moment she arrived. She was simply acting oblivious. These women really are despicable, Joan thought with clenched fists.

She had been on high alert this whole time.

Who knew why they invited me over? They hadn't said a word about it since Joan arrived. She definitely wouldn't be fooled if they suddenly said they were simply looking to enjoy a meal and talk about their past.

"Joan, you're finishing up, right? We're almost done too. Since we're both almost finished, maybe we can discuss something."

Joan put her cutlery down and wiped her mouth before looking at the people in front of her mildly.

"Okay, shoot." she said.

"Here's the thing. Some of us want to go work in the supermarket again, but without Dustin's approval, we can't enter.Could you talk to him and ask him to let those of us back in?"

Some? What about everyone else? Joan looked at them suspiciously.

"The rest of us would like to start their own businesses, but they don't have much money on hand, so they would like to borrow some from you"

Joan finally realized what was going on.

While working hard to start a business was a good idea, there was no good reason for them to borrow money from Joan.

If it wasn't for them, Joan wouldn't have had to suffer all the scolding and beating they did.

How could they be so ignorant and ask me for money after everything they did? Ridiculous.

"I think you should discuss with Dustin. After all, I don't work here, so I can't do anything; Joan answered.

As if I would let you push all the blame onto me.

"You're close to Dustin, aren't you? We know that if you speak up for us, he'll be perfectly fine with it"one of the women hurriedly cut in. Why the hell should I speak up for you guys? Are they actually asking me to manipulate Dustin and Larry?

"Sorry.I'm not the boss of these matters. You should go straight to Dustin," Joan said as she stood up and prepared to leave.

"Hey, you can't leave! Don't even think of going out."
