Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2518
âIs it not good?â Della turned to look at Caspian and asked with a serious look on her face.
It tastes so damn good.
Caspian hesitated for a moment before nodding his head in the end.
âIt's just not to my taste,â he added.
Larry looked at his best friend, and his lips curled into a slight smile.
âThen what do you guys like to eat? I can make them next time...â
âThere's no next time!â Larry interrupted her before she could finish.
The air grew still.
"Della, it's really pointless for you to do something like this. My feelings toward Joan will not
change!â Larry said with a determined tone.
âMs. Duff, I think you still donât understand Larry. He will not go back on his decision once he's
made up his mind. It's really pointless for you to make him food every day. The timing makes all the
difference when it comes to fate. You're just a little too late,â Caspian whispered.
She was not just a little too late. In fact, she was late by a few years! Della clenched her fist as her
eyes burned with fury.
Do I really not stand even the slightest chance? Or do I have to take a more extreme approach?
Della was at a loss on her next course of action.
She revered the man, but it did not mean that he could just trample all over her dignity like that.
âLarry, my patience has its limits. I'm a woman with principles!â Della berated as she could no longer
hold her anger.
"Yes, I am a principled man too,â Larry lifted his head and replied impassively.
âGreat, since you're that heartless toward me, there's no need for me to put up an amiable front
with you!â The woman shouted before she turned on her heels to leave the office.
Caspian sprung up from the sofa and looked apprehensive.
âLarry, is Della going to make her move?â Caspian asked.
"Yes, go protect Joan!â Larry hurriedly said.
Caspian dashed out of the door without further hesitation.
âWhat's the matter? I stayed up so late last night, and only managed to fall asleep just moments
ago..." The woman on the bed said in a coy manner.
âJessica! You have to wake up and go look for Joan! She's going to be in trouble!â Caspian said
anxiously.
Jessica sprung out of the bed after listening to him and sobered up, âOkay! I'll get over there right
now!â She headed for the door even without putting on a coat.
"What are you saying? I'm doing alright here.â Joan said calmly over the phone.
âJoan! Where are you? I'm going to meet you right now!â Jessica asked aloud as she ran.
âI'm home. Lucius wants to eat meatloaf. I'm making it for him,â Joan replied.
"Great, then lock your door right now. Don't let Della in!"
Joan was flabbergasted by her words. âJessica, are you alright? Why are you mentioning Della all of
a sudden?â
âThere's no time to explain right now. Lock your door, and do not open it for anyone other than
Caspian and me!â
Bang! Right then, Joan's door was kicked down.
Jessica was stumped as she heard the commotion over the phone. I'm too late. They already made it
there.
"Who are you guys?â Joan put down her phone and yelled at the men fanned out before her.
âIt's me!â Della appeared from behind the men.
"What are you doing here?â
âFor Larry, of course!â Della beckoned at the men behind her with her right hand, and they tied Joan
up.
"What are you doing?â
âJoan, I had wanted to solve the problem amicably, but Larry left me no choice with his heartless
ways. As a result, you're going to suffer my wrath!â Della entered the car as she said.
âLet me go, Della! This is clearly a matter between the two of you, and you guys are supposed to
settle it. What does it have anything to do with me?â Joan screamed as she was dragged into the
car.
âLarry would not have rejected me like that if it wasn't for you!â Della roared, exasperated at the
woman who was standing in between her and Larry.
