Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2384
She was not siding Jory. After she got to know the hardships Larry went through, she saw things
differently. Sometimes, it can be tough being a man.
“Of course not. I had your interest in mind. I felt so sad when I saw Larry drained by what happened
recently, so…” she hesitantly tried to exin.
She did not have to finish her sentence. Nancy understood where she wasing from.
“Joan, your phone is ringing.”
“Coming!” Joan responded as she came hurrying out from the washroom.
“Where are you? I’ll go and pick you up.” It was Larry.
“I’m at Nancy’s ce. You don’t have to do that. Let’s meet at the restaurant.” She cared dearly for him
and wanted him to get more rest.
Joan was about to hang up when Larry cut in, “Just stay there. I’ll pick you up.” He hung up without
giving her a chance to object.
“What’s up? You have a date with Larry?” Nancy probed, looking at her inquisitively from the sofa.
“Let him court you like before. It’s good that you can enjoy the sweet ‘I’m in love’ experience again,”
she jested.
At this age? Romance is not a high priority after you have kids. To Joan, what was more important was
for the family to have a peaceful and happy life. Everything else was secondary.
“Hey, your precious is crying again. You’d better attend to her.” Joan directed her attention back to her
baby.
Nancy immediately picked up her baby and started pacifying her, “Mommy is here. It’s alright. No more

crying, my precious baby.”
“What? You are not kidding me, are you? Joan is back?” Dustin shouted in disbelief, his gaze fixed on
Jory.
He had been trying to find out about Joan’s whereabouts without sess for a long time. It was a little
unreal when he suddenly heard that she was back.
“Yes, she is back. She came to visit Nancy yesterday,” Jory replied listlessly.
By this time, she would be aware of my unsessful attempt to take over Norton Corporation. Would
she hate me for that? Remorse and sorrow overwhelmed Dustin.
“Have a good chat and exin to her,” Jory patted him on his back and consoled.
Dustin knew Joan well. She valued integrity in a person and would despise him for the unscrupulous
move he made. Dustin dejectedly took out a cigarette and started smoking.
“Since when did you start smoking so heavily?” Jory was concerned. “Since the day Joan left.” That
was Dustin’s reply.
Jory could clearly see that Joan had a special ce in Dustin’s heart all this while. His love for her had
never changed, be it before or after her divorce. His motivation to fight for Norton Corporation was also
her.
“They have not remarried. You still stand a chance,” Jory reminded him. The fact was, Larry and Joan
only had eyes for each other, and they would not let anyone into their hearts.
Dustin looked out of the window and sighed wearily. He knew Joan would not marry any other man
even if she divorced Larry. And Larry would ultimately marry her again.
“It’s not going to work,” Dustin despondently replied.
Jory felt sorry for the disheartened Dustin.
The greatest weakness of his buddy was his stubbornness. Once he set his heart on someone, he
would not give up easily.
“Are you going to meet her?” Jory was curious.
Of course! I still stand a chance so long as she and Larry are not married. He still harbored a faint
hope.
“She is at the park. Do you want to go there to take a look?” Dustin turned around to look at Jory, gave
him a smile, then hurriedly went out.
Yes, he was heading out to meet her! Joan was seated on a bench in the park and staring into the sky.
She could not understand why Dustin was picking on Larry and undermining Norton Corporation.
“Excuse me, could you please kick the ball over to me?” Her thoughts were interrupted by a little kid’s
shout.
Joan looked down and saw a football next to her. The earnest look in the kid’s eyes reminded her of
Lucius.
