    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2778


    Confrontation


    De was slightly astonished by his greeting. Is he caring for me? A wave of joy was blooming within


    her heart, but she willed herself to calm down.


    “I’m good.” Her fingers nervously clenched onto the side of her shirt.


    “Last time when you went back, did you pay a visit to Mr. Duff?” Right then, Larry asked tentatively.


    “Huh? Oh… nope. I didn’t have the time to visit my Dad.” De immediately exined in a slightly


    panicky tone, as going home was merely a lie.


    Why’s he suddenly asking me this? Or had he found out something? De unnaturally took a sip of


    coffee while trying to calm her nerves.


    “No wonder Mr. Duff called me a while ago, asking me to take good care of you.” Larry borated


    slowly, his tone sounded extremelyposed.


    Who needs his care? I am fully capable of taking care of myself, okay? De cast aplicated nce


    at Larry. If he really means what he says, he should have agreed to be my boyfriend.

    “Yes, I know. Dad mentioned it. But I’m fine,” De responded deliberately.


    “Where exactly did you go thest time you flew overseas?”


    De was at a loss with Larry’s extraordinary calmness. She kept staring at Larry but failed to derive


    any clue of his motive. Did he know about me giving Joan a hard timest time?


    “I went to another country for a vacation. Just taking a break from here.” De narrowed her eyes as


    she gazed outside the window with a dark expression.


    It looks like she is still feigning ignorance. Larry took up a teaspoon and started stirring his cup of


    coffee. “Which country?”


    Why is he so persistent? With that, De started to feel offended. Could it be that Joan has told him


    everything?


    “Larry, why do you want to know this? This is my privacy,” De answered with a ruthless tone.


    Indeed, that is her privacy, but at the same time, it is rted to Joan. If Joan never confesses about it, I


    would be in the dark forever about how evil this woman actually is.


    “De, I’m sure you know about Joan and me. We both love each other truly. So I hope that you won’t


    pester her in the future. Juste at me directly if you have any issue.”


    So he’s just worrying about Joan, after all. De snorted coldly in a disdained manner. “Larry, what do


    you mean? What exactly do you want from me?”


    De’s face was now flushed red with anger.


    “You know exactly what I mean. I am warning you not to find fault with Joan anymore. Or else I won’t


    have mercy on you due to our past rtionship.”


    Larry’s temper had erupted finally.


    “So are you going to end our friendship just because of a single incident?” De was at a loss with


    Larry’s gesture.


    “De, are you sure that it was just a single incident?”


    De was stunned momentarily upon hearing that. There’s no way he could find out about those recent


    incidents, is there?


    “I have no idea what you’re talking about. I still have some other things to do, so please excuse me.”


    She could not bear to endure this humiliation anymore.


    “De, myst piece of advice for you. Stay away from Jake, or else one day you will end up his


    victim.”


    Indeed, De knew that Larry’s advice was well-founded. Jake had never once treated her as a friend,


    but just a pawn in his game.


    “I don’t need your opinion on who I choose to befriend. Please mind your own business.” Upon saying


    that, De stormed out on her heels.


    D*mn it! On the street, De stomped her heels in exasperation. How naive was she to think that Larry


    asked her out to express his goodwill, as the reality turned out to be far beyond the expectation?


    Back in the restaurant, Larry was rxing on his seat while casually cutting his steak, as though


    nothing had happened.
