    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2019


    So what? He’s still my son. Who should he be biased toward if not me? You? The outsider? Joan


    nearly rolled her eyes at Gabrie.


    “Let’s go, Lucius. It’s time for us to change.” With that said, Joan grabbed the boy’s hand and headed


    toward the bedroom.


    “Ms. Ward, if you think that our child is rude, then feel free to go to another ce with a more polite


    child. You shouldn’t waste your time here,” Delh frigidly said.


    She would not let anyone insult her family, not even when the boy was not biologically rted to her.


    “I…” Gabrie fell silent.


    Fine! I’ll leave. A cold look flickered past her face.


    “Lars, let’s go. They don’t wee us here,” Gabrie said as she shook his arm.


    “Larry, didn’t you say you want to visit the garden? The flowers are blooming now, so you should take a


    look at them,” Delh interrupted.


    Gabrie was the only one she wanted to get rid of; she still wanted Larry to stick around.


    “Okay, Ms. Young. I’m going to take a look now.” Larry swung off Gabrie’s arm and walked out of the


    house.


    Damn it. These pieces of trash must have a death wish to do this to me. Who do you think you are? As


    Gabrie red at Delh’s house, a thought popped into her mind.


    “Hey, there’s something you’re going to do. Remember, you have to be in disguise when you’re doing


    this,” Gabrie coldly instructed.


    Huh? What is she up to this time? On the other end of the line, the man listened to the woman’s


    instruction despite feeling perplexed.


    Whatever. I’ll do anything for money.


    “How would you like me to do it?” the man queried.


    “I want you to give your all,” Gabrie replied.


    What? I’m not hearing things, am I? That’ll be murder! Maybe I should reconsider this.


    “Miss, I can’t do that. You should know that although I’d do most things, there’s a line I won’t cross.


    Moreover, the prices vary.”


    Damn man. Just cut the crap and tell me if what you want is money. Neither of us is an idiot, so who


    are you trying to fool? Fury was burning bright in Gabrie’s chest.


    “Three times the original amount. Don’t worry. I’ll make sure your money won’t go to waste.”


    “Deal,” came the swift response.

    Gabrie then ended the call. A malicious grin grew on her lips as she wondered, How will Joan deal


    with this?


    If a love-struck man would love the others around the one he loved, then a woman in anger would not


    let the ones around her enemy off. Gabrie, the ruthless woman she was, was one of them.


    “Grandma, where are you going? It’s raining outside. Don’t go out.” Lucius tugged Delh’s arm.


    The elderly woman crouched down to pat his head and smile at him.


    “I want to go to the garden to take a look at the flowers,” she exined.


    She adored those flowers, and she had poured much effort into growing them. Naturally, she would


    want to take care of them.


    “Ms. Young, it’s raining really heavily outside. Why don’t you stay in today and go out to see them


    tomorrow instead?” Joan suggested anxiously.


    “Don’t worry. It’s really close. You should rest up at home and spend more time with the boy. I’ll be right


    back. It’s fine.” Delh gently patted her shoulders.


    Yet, for reasons unbeknownst to her, there was a foreboding sense in Joan’s heart as she stared at


    Delh’s departing figure.


    “Mom, why am I suddenly feeling worried about Grandma? I’ve never felt this way before now,” Lucius


    suddenly said.


    He’s feeling the same too?


    No. I must be overthinking things. How can anything happen to Ms. Young? She’s only taking a look at


    the flowers in the garden.


    “Come on, Lucius. Mom’s going to y some games with you, okay?” Joan shed the boy a


    reassuring smile.
