Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1945
“They’re really a perfect match for each other. What a stunning couple!”
A few waitresses were whispering excitedly among themselves, apparently mesmerized by Dustin’s
stunning looks.
Joan turned even more embarrassed when she overheard the waitresses gossiping about them.
“Joan, what’s the matter? Are you not feeling well? You look pale,” Dustin asked with great concern and
touched her forehead to check her temperature.
“Nothing, I’m just a bit tired.” Joan forced her lips into a tight smile.
I’m actually emotionally exhausted! Can you stop treating me affectionately as if you are my boyfriend?
This is so awkward! She let out a silent sigh, not knowing what she was supposed to do.
“How about we go back for a rest after this?” the man asked gently.
At that, Joan nodded in agreement silently.
If Larry happens to see how caring Dustin is being toward me, I’m sure he will burst a blood vessel… A

sense of guilt started to creep into her heart at that thought. Her main intention had been to go
overseas for a thorough checkup of her brain. She nned to make a further decision after the root
cause was detected. Nevertheless, it seemed as if she was on a vacation with Dustin at that moment.
Once they reached back at the hotel, Joan flung herself directly on the bed. Staring off into the distance
out of the window, she gradually sank into contemtion.
I wonder what Larry is doing now. What about Lucius? What’s he doing now? Is Ms. Young busy with
anything right now?
Joan’s eyes were welled up with tears as she thought of her loved ones. Oh! I really miss all of them so
much!
Holding her phone, Joan looked at Delh’s phone number hesitantly. In the end, she could not hold
herself back any longer. Her finger clicked the particr button to make a call.
“Hello, Joan! Where are you now? We’re all worried about you… Especially Mr. Norton. He’s looking for
you so frantically!” Delh sounded a bit incoherent; she was too anxious.
“Ms. Young!” Unable to suppress the suffocating sorrow any longer, Joan broke down and cried.
When Joan had lost her memories previously, she had treated Delh as her own mother. Whenever
she felt depressed, the woman had always embraced her affectionately. Her grief would be soothed
after crying her heart out in Delh’s arms. Joan was now so far away from her motherly embrace
when she needed to seek sce desperately.
Delh remained silent as Joan wept.
She could only console her in this way since they were currently apart from each other.
After quite a while, Joan finally stopped crying and wiped away her tears.
“What’s the matter? Are you feeling troubled by anything?” Delh asked worriedly.
“Ms. Young, I’m really scared. If I die now, I will not be able to meet all of you anymore…” Joan
mumbled out, a sense of utter bitterness in her tone.
What on earth is she talking about? It sounds as if she thinks she will be gone at any moment! A glint of
coldness shed across Delh’s eyes instantly.
“Joan, what do you mean? Exin yourself!” Delh requested sternly.
“Ms. Young, would you mind doing me a favor?” Joan asked sadly with a sense of weariness in her
voice.
“Larry hasn’t found out that I’m having a checkup on my brain overseas. Please keep it a secret from
him. I don’t want him to be upset and troubled, so I’m waiting for the result of the checkup before telling
him. I’ll be able to make a decision then,” she exined, her tone silently pleading with Delh to not
tell Larry anything.
Even though Delh truly felt for her, she still hesitated for quite a while before agreeing with her
reluctantly.
Time flew by as Joan and Dustin waited for the date of the checkup to be finalized. Meanwhile, Larry
never stopped trying to track down Joan’s whereabouts by all means.
Joan held herself back by not giving the man any calls all this while. She only asionally sent Delh
messages, updating the woman on her condition. She also asked about how things were going on with
Larry and Lucius from time to time.
In the nightclub, beams of colorful lights were emanating from the twirling disco light ball above the
dance floor. The people on the dance floor were moving around excitedly alongside others to the
deafening beat of the pop music being yed.
Scantily dressed dancers were swaying and twisting their bodies seductively, matching the tempo of
the pop songs on the dance floor. Meanwhile, the men were either fixing their zing gazes on the
alluring women or indulged themselves in the passionate flirting session with other flirtatious women
who approached them.
A man was seated alone in one corner of the pub, drinking strong liquor continuously in despair. A
reflection of the lostness and sorrow in his eyes could be seen under the dim lights.
He did not have the courage to ovee the suffocating guiltiness growing within him. The intense
desire to see his beloved woman was driving him crazy. At the same time, he could not forgive himself
for not being able to shield her perfectly against any risk.
“Joan Watts, where on earth did you go? Why don’t you give me a call? Are you hiding somewhere
with Dustin Silverman? Did you elope with him?” he snarled out, frustration evident on his face.
Smash! He smashed a winess in desperation, shattering it into tiny pieces.
A waiter approached him at once and cleared the mess on the floor in silence. He had gotten used to
the scene all this while.
Larry had been patronizing the pubtely and was drunk all the time. He was apparently in a bad mood
and not his usual selftely. Even though they were all curious about what had happened to him, none
of them had the guts to approach him to show their concern. They were fearful of infuriating the man
who was a fabled public figure in the business sector.
Meanwhile, a woman dressed in a revealing dress was gazing meaningfully at the lonely man. Her lips
curved into a wry smile as something yed in her mind.
