    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2168


    Despite her silence, she was also too embarrassed to voice her thoughts.


    “Hmph, what’s wrong with my age? Although I’m old, I’m still fully capable of providing care. Besides,


    you’ve heard Caiden. He’s happier when I’m around,” Delh said as she patted her chest with pride.


    Immediately, the ward’s atmosphere turned silent and awkward. The trio nced at each other with a


    look of hesitation painted across their faces.


    All of a sudden, a woman burst into the ward. “Caiden!” she cried out.


    Why is she here? This is bad! Quickly, Caideny down and pulled the nkets over his body to cover


    himself.


    “Caiden, what happened to you? Did you get into an ident? Is it painful? How is your body?” Noelle


    bbered on in a string of endless questions. Her barrage of questions left Delh dazed.


    What sort of rtionship did these two have? Caiden was fooling around with other women too? A


    glimmer of suspicion began to spark in Delh’s gaze.


    “How are you feeling? Are you cold? I’ll bring another nket for you,” Noelle fussed as she grabbed


    an extra nket and tossed it over Caiden’s body.


    His expression contorted into one of difort as he coughed weakly.


    Is she trying to smother me to death?


    “It’s alright, I’m fine. I just need to take a nap and rest,” Caiden interjected hurriedly.


    Hearing his words, Noelle made her way towards him and took a seat on the bed. Gently, she reached


    out her hand and ruffled his hair. In an attempt to avoid her touch, Caiden turned away and nearly

    tumbled off the bed.


    “Caiden, I missed you so much…” Noelle whined petntly.


    It hasn’t even been five minutes, but she had begun crying.


    Seeing the scene before them, Caiden’s visitors couldn’t help but feel resigned. Delh reached out her


    hand and tugged on Joan’s sleeve to drag her outside. On the other hand, Noelle sprawled herself


    across the bed as she sobbed profusely. Her bold actions left him stunned and speechless.


    “What are you crying about? You are going to scare everyone away,” Caiden said impatiently.


    “I’m scared! I was so happy to see you, but the sight of you on the hospital bed left me stricken with


    worry!” Noelle sobbed profusely.


    She wasn’t even the one who was involved in the ident. Why is she so fussing so much? Things


    would go downhill if she kept this up. She would drive Joan away with her continuous crying.


    “Stop crying. Can’t you see that I’m perfectly fine?” Caiden snapped as he yanked the nkets away.


    It was true that he had not suffered any grave injuries. All he needed was adequate rest to regain his


    body’s health. Of course, there were still issues that he should not neglect during his period of


    recovery.


    “Caiden, how do you feel right now? Are you feeling better? I’ll call for the doctor,” she said and


    prepared to leave the ward.


    “Ah, I’m fine. I was in great spirits before you came,” Caiden replied.


    Caiden wielded no fear about provoking Noelle’s anger with his blunt statement. After all, Noelle could


    never understand the true meaning behind his words.


    “Then, what should I do for you? I wish to help,” Noelle rubbed her tears and asked with a sad tone.


    Good heavens! Helplessly, Caiden buried his face in his hands.


    Her departure would be the greatest help that he could receive. Yet, he was too shy to drive her away.


    After all, she had visited him out of a ce of genuine concern. It’d be rude to drive her away.


    “Noelle, why don’t you rx? Joan has done a very good job of taking care of me. There are no other


    problems. Don’t you have other matters to settle? I’ve seen your hectic schedule. Why don’t you head


    home first? I don’t want to dy your work. We can talk on another day…” Caiden asked softly. There


    was a bright gleam of hope in his eyes as he spoke. He prayed that the woman before him would say


    yes.


    Yet, his wish was not granted.


    “I’ve requested half a month of leave before I came here. Caiden, I am taking the leave in order to take


    care of you!” Noelle blurted out in response.


    What? Caiden felt as if his head was about to explode.


    What sort of excuse is this? She might as well kill me!
