Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2091

How he wished life could go on this way, with the two of them supporting each other and living together in harmony. Caiden loved the feeling of living a peaceful and stable life.

He just wasn’t sure if he would be lucky enough to marry her.

“What do you feel like eating, Caiden? I’ll cook for you,” Joan called out as she approached the kitchen.

“Anything’s fine. I’ll have whatever you make,” Caiden quickly replied.

Uhh… What kind of answer is that? How would I know what he likes or doesn’t like?

Forget it. I’ll just whip up a few common dishes. Joan picked up her knife and got to work.

“By the way, Joan, Larry called you a while ago. Do you want to call him back?” Caiden remarked, acting nonchalantly as he flipped through the magazine again.

Joan suddenly froze.

Oh, no. Larry’s going to lose it if he finds out I’m at another man’s place and even cooking for him! What should I do? Should I call him and explain myself?

She looked at the time and realized that it was getting late.

Never mind. I’ll just get this over with for now and talk to Larry when I get home.

As Joan kept herself busy in the kitchen, her phone on the table began ringing once again. This time, Caiden chose to ignore it. He didn’t have to look at it to know that it was Larry calling. He wanted Larry to misunderstand the situation, and it would be even better if the couple ended up leaving each other.

Soon, the dining table was filled with an array of dishes. Caiden was pleased by the unknown yet familiar scents coming from the food.

“Come, Joan. Let’s eat together,” he offered happily.

“Oh, uhh… It’s fine, Caiden. I have to go now. You know Ms. Young’s still at the hospital, so I’ll have to prepare her food. Your food’s ready. I don’t know if you’ll like it, but give it a try. See you!” With that, Joan took her purse and phone before rushing out.

“Hey! Joan! You haven’t eaten either! You’ll be hungry…” Caiden called out from behind.

Ms. Young? Yeah, right! You’re off to see Larry, aren’t you? Caiden’s brows furrowed.

There’s so much food. How am I going to finish everything? The man put down his fork and spaced out while staring at the ceiling.

In truth, he was a great cook who could probably whip up better food than the dishes laid out on his table. It was just that he didn’t usually cook, and that he really wanted to try Joan’s cooking.

Joan swiftly hailed a cab and headed to the hospital.

Panting, she barged into the ward and sighed with relief upon seeing Delilah.

“What’s wrong, Joan? What’s the rush? Did something happen?” Delilah gazed at her curiously.

A man stood by the window, looking cold and displeased.

Joan knew that Larry was mad.

She also knew that she shouldn’t have done what she did without letting him know.

“Where did you go?” Larry slowly turned around.

Joan began to wonder if she should tell him the truth. If I tell him the truth, he’ll definitely be mad. But if I don’t, he won’t be happy either!

This is… such a tough situation.

“Hey, Joan, what are you thinking about? Larry’s asking you a question,” Delilah reminded.

“Oh, uhh… My friend wasn’t feeling too well, so I dropped by for a visit,” Joan answered sheepishly.

“Which friend?” That was certainly a question worth pondering over.

“Nancy. Yeah! She’s been feeling sick lately, so I went to look after her for a while,” Joan blurted.

She’s lying! She obviously went to Caiden’s place. Why is she trying to cover it up? Larry became increasingly perplexed as he stood before Joan.
