Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1682
“It’s been a while since west met.” Larry whispered into her ear, “Being apart from you makes me feel
flurried and insecure… Joan, I’ve missed you so much.”
Joan rested her face on his shoulder. The smell exuding out of Larry’s body made her feel at ease. “Me
too.”
“Well then… Between your work and me, which one takes precedence over the other?” Larry teased
her.
Joan chuckled and replied, “You.”
Delighted, Larry put on a smug face and carried Joan onto his shoulders to give her a piggyback ride.
“Then, let’s go!”
The blueprints on Joan’s table fell onto the ground as the two of them passed by. Joan pointed at the
blueprints on the ground and yelled, “My blueprints!”
Larry dropped her off on the bed and covered her with a nket. He theny down beside her before
uttering, “Who cares about the blueprints? You said so yourself just now that I’m more important,
remember? Now, get some rest. Nothing shoulde before your health. As for the blueprints, you
can look at them tomorrow!”
Joan was left speechless. Larry then gave her a warm and gentle kiss on the forehead before
murmuring, “Good night.”
With Larry sleeping beside her, Joan slept like a baby. It had been so long since shest had a good
night sleep.
Larry even exhorted her to take a leave from work beforehand if she couldn’t wake up on time the next
morning. He said that he’ll deal with the fer.
After hearing that, Joan didn’t even bother setting up the rm clock for the next morning.
That being said, her tranquil slumber was still cut off short the next morning. She was woken up by a
sudden call.
“Hello, who’s this?”
“Joan? Do you realize what time is it now? You’rete for work.”
“Hello? Who exactly are you? Tell me now or I’ll just hang up the phone…”
Joan was still in a daze. She couldn’t even hear the person on the phoneughing at her.
Gabrie raised her tone, “Don’t you dare!”
Joan instantly sobered up upon hearing Gabrie’s high-pitched voice. “You are…”
Although she recognized that it was Gabrie’s voice, she refrained from saying her name out loud. It’ll
be bad if Larry heard it…
“It’s me, Gabrie. I assume you’re noting to work today. Am I right? Or else you wouldn’t have
overslept…”
“Why did you call me?” Joan queried.
“I want to see you.”
“What?” Joan was perplexed.
“I said, I want to see you. I’ll be waiting for you at the ce west saw each other.”
“You what? Hello?” Gabrie hung up the phone before Joan could say anything. Even though she was
peeved, Joan abstained herself from saying Gabrie’s name out loud. Meanwhile, Larry, who had just
woken up, turned to her and asked, “Who was that?”
“Ah… That was Nancy. She invited me to have breakfast with her,” Joan lied.
Fortunately for her, Larry didn’t seem to notice anything amiss as he just went back to sleep.
Having arrived at the entrance of the café, Joan, who was still yawning, made sure to finish her yawn
before going inside to avoid giving the impression that she had just woken up.
Gabrie was sitting at the same spot as thest time while waiting for her. There was a steaming ss
of green tea on Joan’s seat.
“Why are you so stingy? You ordered a ss of green tea for me while you yourself get to enjoy the
luxurious coffee from Illurasia.” Joan ced her purse on the table and sat herself down opposite
Gabrie.
Gabrie intentionally squinted at her before replying, “If I recall correctly, you ordered a ss of hot
green tea thest time you were here. But if you want some coffee, I’ll get you one immediately.”

She then signaled the waiter toe over with a hand gesture. Seeing as such, Joan quickly reached
out her hand to deter her from doing so. “No, it’s fine. Thank you for the green tea. So, is there
something urgent that you want to talk to me about?”
