Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2728
What Exactly Do You Want To Say
If I said that I was always together with Dustin, would he get angry? Forget it. I’d better tell the truth. He’ll find out sooner or later anyway.
“No, I was always with Dustin and Abelyn,” she replied carefully, fearful that he might misunderstand her.
Larry paused, then nodded without any expression on his face.
“That’s all? There was only the three of you?”
Yeah. If not? Who else would there be? Oh right, there was Della, but we only met her by accident, so I probably don’t need to say that.
“Joan, you know that I love and trust you a lot.”
He spoke with a neutral and calm tone.
I know! I’ve always known how you felt about me. It’s just that sometimes, I do waver.
“Did Della find you?”
Larry placed his breakfast down on the table, carefully studying the person in front of him. There was a look full of blame in his eyes.
“Yes,” she replied simply. It was a fact after all.
“Then? What happened after that?” he asked.
Then the three of us escaped! No, wait. What does he mean? If he’s asking out of concern for me, why’s he speaking in such a tone? He’s clearly interrogating me right now.
“What exactly do you want to say, Larry?” she asked directly.
Joan was not one to beat around the bush and did not like to play tricks with others. She was someone who got straight to the point and would not avoid the topic.
“Why did you hurt Della?”
He gave off a cold aura, causing her to unconsciously move back a little. However, her stepping back was seen as a guilty confession in Larry’s eyes.
When Joan looked up at her with a bitter look in her eyes, Jessica was surprised.
“Give it to me!” Joan said fiercely, without a trace of warmth in her tone.
“No!” Jessica replied firmly. I need to figure out what happened between them. I have to!
“Tell me, did Larry hurt you?” she asked carefully, patting Joan on the shoulder.
So what if he did? Can she even help me to deal with him? Joan snorted coldly, her expression disdainful.
“It’s got nothing to do with you,” she said, then picked up a bottle of wine and drank directly from it.
Is she crazy? She’s drinking directly from the bottle!
“Stop drinking!” Jessica yelled displeasedly as she tried to grab the bottle in Joan’s hands.
“Shut up! I called you so that you’d drink with me. You’re not here to stop me from drinking!” Joan glared coldly at her.
