    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2533


    “A man by the name of Jasper has been troubling hertely.” There was a shred ofint andck


    of self-confidence in the way Caspian spoke.


    “What are you afraid of? Jessica doesn’t even like him.”


    “Yes, she doesn’t fancy him now but as time passes, there’s no guarantee that she won’t have a


    change of heart.”


    Right then, Caspian finally realized what it meant to feel insecure and miserable.


    “Aren’t you two living together? What are you still afraid of?” Larry reminded him.


    Maybe I’m just thinking too much. Caspian frowned as he ruminated the reasons for his discontent.


    Maybe I care about Jessica too much. Maybe I’m mad that she’s giving me the cold shoulder


    treatment. I don’t know. I’m just not in the mood!


    “Don’t fret. You’re a man, aren’t you? Stop whining then. Look at you, your face looks all weird!” Larry


    eximed.


    “You’re right!” Caspian replied loudly, and rose to his feet.


    On the other side of town, Joan sat on the sofa in the living room, staring nkly at the ceiling above


    her.


    The phone next to her had been ringing for a while, but she refused to pick it up.


    The call was from Dustin. She dared not answer.


    “Joan! Hey! Are you daydreaming? Your phone’s been ringing for ages. Can you just get that?” Delh


    pointed out the obvious as she walked over to her.


    “It’s just one of those spam calls. Some foreign marketingpany wants to sell me stuff,” Joan simply


    came up with a lie.


    “Get into your room then. You’re just going to affect my mood if you stay here,” Delh urged her to


    leave the living room.


    Joan collected her phone and shuffled into her room like a zombie. She flopped onto the bed, feeling


    resigned, as though all her hopes and dreams had been sucked out of her.


    Should Ie clean to Larry? What would he think of me if he finds out the truth? All that thinking was


    making her head throb.


    Noises came from outside the house. Delh was questioning a man who had dropped by, “And what


    brings you here?”


    “Ms. Young, is Joan home?” Dustin stated his reason.


    “She’s sleeping in her room. What? Do you need something from her?” Delh fired another question.


    “I called her several times just now but she didn’t answer. I got worried, so I thought I should check on


    her,” Dustin said with an awkward chuckle.


    Oh my, how thoughtful! Delh felt equal parts relieved and sad to see him.


    Joan also heard Dustin’s voiceing from outside. She quickly pulled the covers over herself and


    pretended to be sleeping soundly.


    “Hey! Just what do you think you’re doing? That’s Joan’s room! You can’t just barge in there!” Delh


    shouted at the rude visitor.


    What a jerk! Does he not know proper manners? How can he just march into Joan’s room like this?


    That’s not right. Dustin isn’t always like this. He’s the type who means what he says and knows what


    he’s doing, so what on earth is happening right now?


    Delh scrutinized the man who hade knocking on her property as she tried to figure out what he


    was on about.


    Based on Delh’s reaction, Dustin deduced that Joan had not told the older woman what happened


    between them the night before. With that, he did not see the need to barge into the woman’s room.


    “Dustin, you get back here this instant!” Delh yelled. The volume was loud enough to startle Joan


    who was hiding in the room.


    Damn, Delh must have sensed something! Joan sat up abruptly, leapt down from the bed, and


    dashed out of her room.


    “Ms. Young!” She shouted at the woman on the sofa in the living room.


    Both Delh and Dustin turned towards her, confusion painted on their faces.


    “Yes?” Delh asked.


    Dustin smirked when Joan entered the scene. That creepy smirk sent a shiver down Joan’s spine.


    “Um, I’d like to have meatloaf for dinner.” Joan came up with an excuse, hoping to distract Delh.


    “For god’s sake, girl. Look at the time! If you want to ce your orders for dinner, do itter! It’s too

    early for that now,” Delh ranted as she gave Joan the side-eye.


    Well, I don’t want you talking to Dustin!


    “Dustin, don’t you have other things to do today? You really should get going! Come, allow me to see


    you off!” With that said, Joan approached the man and made to drag him away.
