Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1925

"Come on, let's talk inside,” Lonnie suggested.

Larry's eyes darkened when Lonnie explained what had happened to him.

“So, who do you think was behind all this?” he asked tentatively.

Who else could it be besides Gabriella? I can’t think of anyone else who'd be so cruel to want

Lonnie dead so badly.

“I'm pretty sure it's Gabriella. She even persuaded me to take over Mr. Newman's place, but I

rejected her...” Lonnie muttered.

Suddenly, everything made sense to Larry. No wonder everyone was indifferent towards Lonnie’s

incident!

"What are you planning to do next?” Larry asked him in a serious tone.

“Mr. Norton, I was thrown into the river. Therefore, the recording is now nowhere to be found. I

can't provide you any sort of evidence now. However, I do a copy. But...” Lonnie hesitated.

"What's wrong?” Larry urged.

“Gabriella wouldn't have let me off so easily. Thus, I guess she would have sent someone to look for

the recording that's kept in my house,” Lonnie answered as his eyes dimmed.

He's right. Gabriella has always been very cautious when dealing with such matters.

"Send me the address. I'll go take a look,” Larry said

Lonnie was going through a rough time, so Larry advised him to stay at the clinic until he gets

better. He's a witness, after all. I can't let anything happen to him.

“Mr. Norton!” Lonnie called out with an embarrassed expression on his face.

"Please take care of Mr. Newman too,” Lonnie said softly.

What a righteous man!

Larry's lips curled into a smile as he gestured an “okay” sign to him and left.

“Larry, I think the person has gone abroad.” Caspian looked at him cautiously.

Larry was looking out of the window and didn't seem to hear Caspian’s words.

The former spoke after a long time, “You can put that matter on hold for now. I need you to do

something else.”

I wonder when I will ever find peace when there's so much going on? Sadness flashed before his

eyes as he recalled the incidents in the past.

“You're mom's a homewrecker! I'm sure of it!"

“She's not!” Lucius defended

"Yes, she is! She seduced the president of a big company and the husband of her best friend...”

“You're mom's a terrible woman...” A few classmates blurted out as they gathered around Lucius.

“You're mom's a b*tch!"

"You're just as terrible as your mom!” The children hurled one insult after another.

“Shut up! No, she’s not!” Lucius shouted.

“Lucius.” Joan appeared by the corner at that moment in time.

“Mom.” Lucius ran into Joan's arms and hugged her tightly.

Joan instantly knew that he had been mistreated. She comforted him, patting his back lightly.

“Mom, you're not a homewrecker, are you? You didn’t seduce your best friend's husband.” Lucius

looked at her expectedly, his eyes filled with tears.

Joan did not answer him right away. The whole matter was rather complicated.

There was no romance between Larry and Gabriella, nor did he ever acknowledge her as his

girlfriend. Thus, I don't understand why others assume I seduced him. Besides, I don't believe she

has ever treated me as her bestie.

“Lucius, things are much more complicated between us adults. But I promise you that I haven't done

anything against my conscience,” Joan explained as she looked at the young boy.

Lucius let out a bright smile as soon as he heard her words. He chose to believe whatever Joan told

him.

“Mom, I'm craving for buffalo wings today,” Lucius said cheekily as he held Joan's hand.

“Sure. I'll also make some other favorite dishes of yours, alright?” she replied as she pinched his

cheeks adoringly.
