Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2617

Respecting His Choice

“If Joan is his ultimate choice, then I'll respect his wishes.”

This woman is unbelievable!

All this for a man? There are so many men outside whom you can choose from! Delilah could not

wrap her head around Della’s thinking.

"Well, whatever floats your boat then.” Delilah left once she knew it would be fruitless talking to her.

Delilah was not planning on telling Joan about what Della thought about Larry. Just as she was

thinking about how to go about prodding Joan to do something about it, Jessica had already beat

her to it.

“Joan, you've been so busy lately. Aren't you afraid Larry will start looking for other women?” Jessica

pried.

“Nope, not at all.”

How can you be so sure? Jessica shot her a curious look.

"What if he meets someone he thinks is more suitable for him one day?”

What's with all these questions? Joan finally cocked her head and looked at Jessica in dismay.

“Larry will never leave me. Even if he does, I'll respect his choice.”

So you're just gonna accept it? Well, good for you, but I'm not sure if you'll be able to still be the

bigger person if that really happens. Jessica looked away and stopped asking her questions.

Joan was a trusting and humble person. She was inexperienced in the crafty ways of the world, and

she never plotted against people. Although this was a virtue, it also meant she was guileless when it

came to others scheming against her. She would not even pose herself as a strong competitor to

people who wanted her out of a game.

“Joan, I really salute you.” Jessica put up her thumb toward her approvingly.

What's with this girl today? Joan looked at her sitting on the couch while her brain set to work,

trying to understand what was Jessica thinking.

Don't tell me this is about Larry.

Is he involved in some scandal with other women again?

“Is Larry seeing someone?” Joan dashed over and asked, her tone raised.

"Hey, calm down! He's not seeing anyone. You're the only woman for him.” Jessica patted her on her

back, trying to ease her.

Ha, I bet she really cares about Larry. Look at how anxious she is.

After assuring Joan that nothing was going on, Jessica left.

As for Larry, he only took Della as a business partner. There was nothing more to their relationship,

but he knew people around him thought otherwise. After all, Della was a businesswoman too. She

would not do anything without it benefiting her.

In Larry's case, she wanted to win his heart.

Caspian saw through Larry's thoughts and offered him a piece of advice. “I really think you should

make things clear with Ms. Duff as soon as possible.”

“What is there to talk about?”

“Your relationship with her! What will Joan say if she knows what's going on?”

Larry's steps halted and he turned toward Caspian, his face stern.

“Della and I are nothing more than just business partners,” he said with full determination before

leaving.

Geez, how many times do I have to explain myself before they stop making all these nasty

comments?

"What's with the sad face?” Della came over and asked.

“Nothing, really.”

"What's going on?” Della was relentless.

“You shouldn't come over this often,” Larry told her outright.

“But we have to discuss our business project. We're partners,” Della insisted.
