Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2691
Cry It Out
As soon as he reached the dining table, his phone began ringing.
Dustin nced at the screen only to discover that it was an unfamiliar number. He hung up without
hesitation.
His phone rang three more times. Dustin finally answered out of exasperation, thinking that it was a
long-lost friend trying to keep in touch. He answered the call and put it on speakerphone.
“I want to speak with Abelyn.”
It was a man’s voice.
At once, all three of them were stunned.
Abelyn stared at Dustin’s phone on the table with shock.
She recognized that voice. It was her ex-boyfriend.
But why did he call Dustin? Abelyn was confused.
“What do you want?” Abelyn asked coldly as she helped herself to more pizza.
“What do you want?” the man on the phone asked savagely.
What a joke!
He has the audacity to ask me that? He was the one who suggested that they broke up and he was the
one who cheated. And now he’s here asking me what I want to do?
A scumbag will forever remain a scumbag. What a selfish man with no capacity for self-reflection
indeed!
“I do not want anything,” Abelyn answered firmly.
“Abelyn, I’ve already done everything. Perhaps you should stop being stubborn?”
The voice carried the hint of a threat.
Abelyn was not affected.
“There are no more possibilities when ites to us. From now on, we shall part ways and never
contact each other again.”
At that, Abelyn hung up.
What a clingy piece of sh*t! Abelyn turned off Dustin’s phone and flung it on the couch, imitating
Dustin’s action earlier.
“That was your ex-boyfriend?” Joan asked with concern.
“Hmph, ignore him. Let’s get back to our meal!”
Abelyn poured herself another ss.
On the surface, she looked like she didn’t care, but in truth, her heart was pounding hard with anxiety.
At the sight of Abelyn’s red and drunken face before her, Joan felt a welling of pity for Abelyn.
Joan suddenly thought of Larry.
The incident between him and De had not been made clear to Joan.
Though she trusted Larry’s character, she understood man’s desires even more.
“Abelyn, you don’t have to hold it in. If you feel like crying, just let it out. We won’t make fun of you for
it.”
Dustin ced a slice of pizza in front of her.
Atst, Abelyn was unable to hold it in any longer. She sprawled on the dining table and wept.
It was awkward and tragic.
Joan had lost her appetite. She wiped her hands and gazed at Abelyn pouring her emotions out.
Joan understood that when faced with rtionship trouble, nothing felt better than to have a good cry
over it.
At longst, Abelyn raised her head and wiped her tears. She looked a real mess.
“I’m awfully sorry to have caused a scene and interrupted our dinner together,” she choked as she
smoothed her hair and wiped her face.
“Nonsense. Here, have some water.”
Joan poured her a ss.
“What good will that do? As soon as the water goes in, out ites from her eyes again…” Dustin
teased.
The two women suddenlyughed.
“Dustin, when did you be so witty?” Abelyn patted him on the shoulder as she reached for a
serviette.
“What are you talking about? I’ve always been witty. Not only am I extraordinarily handsome, but I also
excel in other areas as well…” Dustin smoothed back his hair and pointed his chin upwards with pride.
“Joan, what did you say earlier? You wanted baked chicken wings, didn’t you? We’ll have some of
those tomorrow.” Abelyn was in a much better mood. She was eating again.

What? When did I say that I wanted baked chicken wings? Joan studied the girl in front of her with
puzzlement.
“Abelyn, can’t you give me somepliments?” Dustin shoved Abelyn yfully.
Compliment him for what? His character? His abilities?
Just forget it!
“What qualities do you have that are worth praising? You’re just an ordinary being.”
