    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1825


    Larry’s parents did not intervene upon knowing what he wanted for his birthday. They had learned to


    respect his decisions after acknowledging that he was no longer a child.


    “Caspian. Have some of this…” Joan excitedly spoke up.


    “Here’s a slice for you too.” She ced a slice of meat on Nancy’s te as well.


    Though Caspian and Nancy were divorced, they were mature enough to set aside their differences.


    After all, they were all there to celebrate Larry’s birthday.


    Caspian decided to break the awkward silence by asking his ex-wife, “How have you been?”


    “I’ve been good. How about you?” Nancy asked sheepishly, feeling a strange sense of guilt rising within


    her.


    Luckily, a short round of small talk seemed to resolve the tension between the two divorcees.


    “Honestly, Caspian, I can’t believe how you used to tolerate my temper in the past!” Nancy burst out


    “You made my life miserable! It’s all your fault! Let’s drink to that. Cheers!” Caspian took a sip of his red


    wine, smiling as well.


    Both Larry and Joan were pleased to see the reconciliation between the two.


    Caspian might not be the most suitable husband for Nancy, but he could still be a good friend to her.


    When they were married, the way they interacted with each other made them seem more like siblings


    than lovers anyways.


    “Cheers!” Nancy tapped the table lightly and raised her ss before Caspian.


    After gobbling down several sses of wine, the two divorcees had gotten really drunk.


    “Let’s y a game!” Caspian stood up drunkenly, swaying on his feet.


    Nancy, too, stood up and started gesturing with her fingers.


    They were having so much fun with each other that they seemed to have forgotten about Larry and


    Joan beside them.


    Larry and Joan were d to see the both of them learn to let go of their past and embrace a blooming


    friendship.


    Dustin, who had been observing them for some time from afar, could not help but smile while shaking


    his head.


    Who would have thought a divorced couple could maintain a friendship like this!


    Dustin sighed softly to himself.


    If I were in Caspian’s shoes, I would have pulled myself away and talked to someone else.


    All of a sudden, a knock on the door sounded.


    Joan looked at Larry in confusion, asking, “Who else did you invite?”

    Thetter went deep in thought for a while before he shook his head. “I don’t remember inviting anyone


    else.”


    Wanting to see who had arrived, Joan stood up and walked to the door.


    “Happy birthday, Larry!” Gabrie emerged once the door was opened.


    A heavy silence instantly fell upon the room. Everyone turned their attention to the unweed guest.


    “What are you doing here?” Larry stalked to the door in a huff, shooting the woman a disdainful look as


    he did so.


    I didn’t invite her to my party. How did she even know I was celebrating my birthday today?


    “I’m here because I want to celebrate your birthday with you, Larry,” Gabrie replied in an overly sweet


    voice.


    The drunk Caspian shot a sullen re at the woman upon remembering what she had once done to


    him.


    He was waiting for the right time to teach Gabrie a lesson!


    “You aren’t weed here. Please leave,” Larry ordered without hesitation.


    Gabrie was dumbfounded by how aloof the man was. She thought he would have invited him in to at


    least have a slice of cake. Feeling utterly awkward under the eyes of everyone in the room, she took a


    sidelong nce at all the guests who were unashamedly staring at her.


    “Are you mad at me? Please don’t be mad at me, okay? Tell me what I did wrong. I’ll not repeat the


    same mistake, I promise!” Gabrie inched closer to Larry as she continued, “More importantly, I want


    you to be happy.”


    “Here’s my birthday gift for you.” Gabrie then presented Larry with an exquisite gift box.


    To her dismay, the man tilted his head and looked away. “You should leave now.”


    How dare he humiliate me like this?


    A vortex of anger swirled inside Gabrie.


    He treats me like shit all the time because of that scheming bitch!


    She decided to y the sympathy card, hoping to stir some sense of guilt into Larry and everyone


    there. “I only came here to celebrate your birthday, Larry. But since I’m not weed, I guess I’ll see


    myself out.”
