    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1894


    Chapter 1894 Larry left


    Something serious must’ve happened for Caspian to call so relentlessly.


    Larry swept his gaze across the others before he grabbed his phone and left the private room.


    “Larry, that man is being unreasonable. He insisted on meeting you tonight,” reported Caspian


    anxiously.


    Shifting his gaze to the people in the private room, hended a punch on the wall in frustration.


    Why is the timing so bad?


    “Can’t we postpone until tomorrow?” Larry lowered his voice.


    “He is persistent about meeting tonight. He said this is the only chance we have,” answered Caspian


    anxiously.


    “Mom, what’s wrong with Dad?” asked Lucius suddenly.


    Joan paused for a moment, but she was quick to regain herposure.


    “Be good, Lucius. Your dad is just a little busy,” coaxed Joan before she got some delicacies for the


    boy.


    Lucius turned gloomy while staring at Larry’s empty seat.


    “Does he have to leave tonight?” asked Lucius while staring at Joan with his big, round eyes. It was


    apparent that he was reluctant to part with Larry.


    “Maybe, but don’t worry. He will be back to y with you as soon as he is done with work,” replied Joan


    with a smile.


    As expected, that sentence worked wonders, and Lucius got excited immediately.


    At that moment, Larry hung up the call and returned to the private room with a troubled look.


    Delh broke the silence, “Mr. Norton, if there is something urgent to tend to at the office, please feel


    free to go.”


    Larry had been on the phone for so long that one could guess that something grave must have


    happened.


    With an apologetic expression, Larry turned to Joan and Lucius.


    “It’s fine, Dad. Just do whatever you need to do. Mom said that you will be back as soon as you’re done


    working,” Lucius persuaded.


    Larry grinned upon seeing how understanding the boy was.


    He exchanged some pleasantries with them before leaving the restaurant. Soon, only three of them


    were left in the private room, and silence ensued.


    “Come now, let’s eat up. Lucius, your mom took you all the way here to celebrate your victory, so you


    must eat more, okay?” said Delh while grinning.

    “Okay…”


    As Delh and Lucius were chatting away, Joan excused herself to go to the washroom.


    “Hey, Larry. It’ste, so be careful on the road, okay?” Joan reminded.


    “Don’t worry. I’ll be fine.”


    The two of them hung up after talking for a while.


    For some unknown reason, Joan had been feeling uneasy ever since Larry left. Her heart was


    pounding fast as well.


    I must be overthinking it. Joan washed her face before existing the washroom.


    A bald drunkard with a greasy face suddenly showed up in front of her. Joan’s guard came up, and she


    tried to walk past him, but just as she turned, the man deliberately stumbled and fell onto Joan.


    “Hey, sir.” Joan hurried over to help the guy up.


    “Who the hell do you think you are? How dare you trip me?” howled the man.


    Joan saw how drunk the man was, so she took a deep breath, trying to avoid arguing with him.


    “Sorry, please be careful,” said Joan as she helped the man up. She nned on leaving immediately


    after, but the man pushed her and pinned her against the wall.


    “What are you doing?” demanded Joan cautiously as she stared at the man in front of her.


    I don’t recognize him, and I don’t think he’s from this vige.


    “You tripped me, and you think you can get away with it just like that?” growled the man as he slowly


    got closer to Joan.


    As the man stared at the innocent-looking Joan who looked like a harmless bunny, a wicked grin crept


    up on his lips.


    “Sir, we’re in public,” reminded Joan.


    The man merely sneered in disdain.


    “So what? It’s an honor for a secluded vige like yours to have me as a guest,” replied the man before


    he flexed his arms and stroked his chin. “At least this trip isn’t a waste, after all. Who would’ve thought


    that a ce like this would have such a beautiful woman?”


    Joan was tempted to p the man across the face when she heard his repulsive words.


    “Excuse me, mister, but my son is waiting for me, and I have to go,” Joan quickly said, preparing to


    leave.
