Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2241
Instantly, Joan sobered up.
“Larry, what’s wrong?”
“I want to eat you whole.” At that, he leaned in to kiss her.
What happened next was an act that the two enjoyed.
Meanwhile, on the other end.
“Noelle, can you stop this? Hurry up and go home,” Caiden groaned. When she heard him, a trace of melancholy ran past Noelle’s eyes.
Why does he hate me so much? What horrible things have I ever done to him?
“Caiden, I think it’s time for us to have a talk,” Noelle solemnly suggested.
At the start, Caiden was surprised by her words. However, he quickly recomposed himself and schooled his features. Confounded, he wondered, What is there to talk about? There’s nothing to talk about.
“I have something to deal with, so I’m going to leave now.” Caiden turned away from her.
“Caiden Owens! You can’t leave. I know you have nothing to do. You have to have this talk with me today. I’m afraid that there will be no chance for us to talk about this if I don’t speak my mind now.”
The somber way Noelle was speaking startled Caiden, and he began to ponder if he had gone overboard. Even if I don’t like her, we can still be friends. Moreover, she’s Jaden’s sister, so she’s like my sister.
“Fine. What do you want to talk about? Speak.” Caiden sat down on the couch beside him before fixing his gaze on her.
At that very moment, Noelle was nervous. She wanted to tell him she loved him and she could not leave him, but she dared not to. Noelle feared the two would not even be friends once these words left her lips.
Of course Noelle knew what he meant. At the end of the day, it was because she was not Joan. If she were Joan, he would have stared at her happily. However, she was Noelle, and that was why he did not want to bother himself with her.
“There are various kinds of love, Caiden. Do you really know what your feelings for Joan are?” Noelle persistently questioned.
Of course I do. My feelings for Joan have never changed. I like her, and I always think of her. Even when I’m overseas. Even when I found out she’s married.
It did not matter. True love had no boundaries. Caiden never cared about others’ opinions of him.
That was what love was. It was about him listening to his heart to seek the one who belonged to him. It was courage. It was a goal.
Perhaps that was the mindset of those who knew love well. Their life was formed around love, and they would do everything to make sure it stayed that way.
Caiden had never thought about what would happen in the future. All he did were the things he enjoyed, and that included loving Joan.
