Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1834
Their leader nced at the phone for a second before staring at Joan, troubled.
After a long while, he finally walked over to her and squatted down.
“Were you serious when you said that you’d let us go? If we release you, you swear you’d not tell Larry
about us?” He stared at her intensely, looking for telltale signs of her lying.
Joan nodded. “Yes, I meant what I said. I won’t say a single word about you guys, I swear.”
Even though they kidnap us, we’re unharmed. So, there’s no need to tell Larry about this.
Suddenly, a long-haired man chimed in, “Boss, we can’t release them. All women are liars. Have you
forgotten about the woman who betrayed you?”
What the heck? Joan’s once hopeful heart sank instantly.
Upon hearing his subordinate mentioning the woman who hurt him, he clenched his fists tightly, and his
gaze turned menacing. “How can I forget that?”
“Boss, we must not let these two women go,” the man with long hair protested.
Looking at the long-haired man, Joan had an urge to punch him and shut him up. Why does he have to
butt in right when we’re about to be freed?
“I’m not lying. Everything I’ve said is true. If you let us go, I will not tell this to anyone!” Joan repeated.
The leader turned his back to her and pondered for a while, tilting his head in concentration.
“Drink. I want to drink more…” Nancy muttered all of a sudden.
Joan looked at her friend and sighed dejectedly.
It’d be great if Nancy is sober now; she is normally the one smarter in this kind of situation.
Exasperated, Joan affirmed, “If I don’t keep my promise, may God punish me and let me burn in hell!”
He immediately turned around with his gaze softening.
Is he finally going to let us go?
Joan waited for his answer expectantly.
After a few seconds, he replied, “Okay. I’ll let both of you go, but keep in mind that it’s not because I
believe you, but because I want to keep my fellow friends safe. I’m sorry for what we’ve done.
Hopefully, you won’t tell Larry Norton about this.”
The men standing at the side was shocked.
Everyone thought that their boss would take things to extremes after the woman who betrayed him was
mentioned.
“Boss, have you forgotten what the woman did? She said she woulde back to meet you, but in the
end, she had ran away with another man.”
“Shut up!” the bald-headed man yelled.
He certainly remembered the lesson of not trusting the words of a woman. If it wasn’t for that wicked
woman, I wouldn’t be still single now.
“Let them go,” he muttered.
He knew perfectly well that they should not offend Larry Norton, especially if the woman in front of them
was his lover.
If I continue to keep these women, I’m sure he would kill every single one of us on the day he finds us
out.
Since the bald man had given hismand, Joan was set free immediately.
He came over and said, “Miss, please remember what you’ve promised today and keep your word.”
Joan nodded solemnly. “Don’t worry. I’ll stand by my promise.”
He put on a sad smile in return.
In fact, he did not care if Joan would stick to her word or not.
How could a man who was hurt by his lover’s broken promise trust the words of a woman so easily?
The only thing he believed was that even if Larry found them, he would not do anything drastic because
they had left both the women.
“But!” As Joan walked away from him, she whipped around abruptly and looked at the bald man.
“Please believe that there are still good women out there who are worth your trust.”
Then, she continued her way to her sleeping friend and shook her shoulders. “Nancy, wake up!”
Nevertheless, Nancy had no response at all.
Gosh, this woman. Why does she have to be drunk when I need her the most? Does she have to be so
devastated for Jory? It’s not a big deal at all. When there’s life, there’s hope. Even if her father doesn’t
ept Jory now, it doesn’t mean that he won’t ept him in the future.Original content from N?velDrama.Org.
