    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2169


    “It’s alright; Joan alone is enough. It might get noisy if there are too many people,” Caiden refuted


    awkwardly.

    Who allowed her to take a leave? Why does she think that she’s capable of taking care of me? Most


    importantly, who on earth told her that I was in the hospital!


    “No, I…”


    “Joan!” Caiden yelled before Noelle could finish her sentence.


    Outside the ward, Delh was engaged in a deep conversation with Joan.


    “I think this is good enough. You should head home, and I’ll stay here. This way, people won’t gossip


    behind your back. I’m an old woman now; they won’t point their fingers at me. If they do so, I can im


    to be his aunt,” Delh said and patted Joan’s shoulders in reassurance.


    Despite her kind words, Joan was aware that Delh was doing these for her sake. Besides, taking


    care of a patient was no walk in the park. As time dragged on, Joan feared that Delh would copse


    from exhaustion.


    “But Caiden’s body still requires a long period of recovery,” Joan tried to argue.


    “Don’t worry; I won’t get tired so easily. Besides, he can move freely now. It wouldn’t be a problem.”


    “Joan!” All of a sudden, Caiden’s voice echoed from the ward. The tone of his yell was several octaves


    higher.


    “What happened?”


    Both women hurried into the ward with frantic steps.


    Their arrival caused Noelle to shift her gaze as she stared at Joan coldly. Immediately, her face was


    filled with displeasure.


    “Ah, I want to eat an apple. Can you help me to peel it?” Caiden asked with a smile.


    “I’ll help you peel it,” Noelle replied in an instant and scrambled for the apple as she began to peel it.


    Her movements were as quick as lightning. It was clear that Noelle harbored deep feelings for Caiden.


    Seeing her actions, Delh couldn’t help but speak up. “Caiden, this woman is impressive!” she said in


    a sarcastic tone.


    Lying on the bed, Caiden awkwardly turned over and gazed at the window outside.


    “The weather today is not bad,” he replied and ignored Delh’s statement.


    It seemed like Noelle was the only one who was oblivious to the awkward tension that hung in the air


    as she peeled the apple joyfully.


    “Caiden, I’m done peeling. Here, you can eat it now,” Noelle handed the freshly peeled apple to him.


    Despite his hesitation, Caiden still epted the apple. However, he set it aside without eating it.


    Seeing their interaction, a thunderous moment of realization dawned upon Delh. Caiden had feelings


    for Joan whilst Noelle loved Caiden. However, it seems like Joan likes Larry. Suchplicated


    rtionships!


    “Alright, why don’t you head back first? Also, could you help me water the nts in the garden? There


    is nothing much left for you to do besides that,” Delh addressed Joan out of the blue.


    Immediately, Caiden’s gaze shifted towards Joan.


    “Where are you going?” he asked cautiously.


    He had gone through thick and thin in an effort to reunite with her. How could she leave right now?


    “Caiden, business in the supermarket has been hectictely. As a result, they are short-staffed and


    need my help. Ms. Young will take care of you for the time being,” Joan murmured.


    On the other hand, Noelle was utterly delighted. The corners of her mouth twitched upwards in a smug


    smile.


    “Caiden, you should rx. I’m still here, aren’t I? I’ll make sure to take good care of you,” Noelle said.


    How could shepare to Joan? In his eyes, Noelle was nothing more but a nuisance that tagged


    along with him every day. Caiden merely nced at her for a brief moment before he turned away


    without replying.


    “You aren’t going to visit me anymore?” he continued to question Joan.


    “No, I will try to visit you asionally.”


    What is she talking about? She might as well vanish and disappear without a trace! Caiden clenched


    his fists in frustration.


    “How can you let Ms. Young be responsible for my care? I’m her junior,” Caiden insisted stubbornly.


    If Ms. Young was going to take care of him, he might as well ask for a nurse’s help.


    “Caiden, how can you say such things? Didn’t you say that you were happy with me? Why did you


    change your mind all of a sudden?” Delh said coyly.
