Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2792
A Trap
After today, I wonder if I’ll ever be able to eat the food he makes again. Joan felt her throat close up as
she ate. During the phone callst night, the man kept emphasizing for Joan to go alone with the five
million. It’s obviously a trap.
But if I don’t go, Ms. Young and Lucius will be the ones who get hurt.
“Joan, you’re awake,” Jessica suddenly called out softly as she rubbed the sleep from her eyes on the
sofa.
“Yeah. Come have some breakfast,” Joan said with a strained smile.
Following that, Jessica wordlessly pulled Caspian over to the bathroom.
In the dining room, Larry was seated across from Joan, eating a sandwich while studying her carefully,
as though waiting for something.
“What is it? Why are you looking at me like that?” Joan wiped her mouth and asked self-consciously.
“Nothing. You should eat more,” Larry replied calmly.
Soon, Caspian and Jessica joined them in the dining room.
“Did you make all of this, Larry?” Jessica gaped at the man in front of her with surprise sprawled across
her face.
“Eat your breakfast,” Larry ordered bossily.
Joan made small talk with the others, but excused herself and left the house soon.
Shortly after she left, Caspian took thest bite of his food and took his leave as well.
Larry and Jessica were the only ones left in the dining room.
“Larry, why didn’t you just talk it out with her?” Jessica’s brows knitted together in confusion.
“Hurry up and eat.” Larry did not exin to Jessica that telling her was pointless. He would rather
protect her from the shadows. Naturally, she woulde clean with him when she was ready.
Meanwhile, Joan went straight to the bank with the cheque that Larry wrote for her. They did not want
bank cards or passbooks, only cash.
Caspian followed her while carefully observing everything around her, keeping in mind all of Larry’s
instructions.
“How’s it going? Has she withdrawn the money?” Larry’s deep voice drifted over the phone.
“Yes, she just did,” Caspian reported.
With a small case in hand, Joan got into a car which then immediately sped away from the bank.
In less than an hour, the car pulled to a stop at an abandoned gas station. Joan got out with the case
and kept checking her watch while looking around, as though waiting for someone.
After waiting for a long time, the person Joan was supposed to meet still did not show up. Suddenly,
her phone rang in her pocket.
“How dare you f*cking lie to me?” On the phone, the man’s voice was vicious. “Didn’t I tell you toe
alone? Why is Caspian following behind you?”
Joan was taken aback. Caspian is here? But how does he know who Caspian is?
“Tomorrow at ten in the morning, take the five million and head directly to the west pier.” With that, the
line went dead.
Damn it! What the hell is Larry up to?
At the moment, Joan was consumed with rage.
Thud! The door was opened loudly.
In the living room, Larry immediately put down the newspapers in his hands and walked to the door.
With worry lining his features, he looked at the woman and asked in puzzlement, “How did it go?”
As Joan gazed at the face that she loved and hated at the same time, conflicting emotions surged in
her heart. There was a hint of usation in her voice when she spoke. “What the hell are you doing?
They told me to go alone. Why did you order Caspian to follow me?”
When Larry looked down and saw the case in her hand, he instantly understood everything.
The exchange had failed.
He slowly walked to the sofa and took a seat. Stroking his chin, he fell into deep thought. It seems like I
underestimated them.

Bang!
Joan stormed into her bedroom and mmed the door behind her.
Very soon, Larry’s phone rang beside him.
“Larry, Joan did not make contact with them,” came Caspian’s voice.
“Cancel the operation.” With that, Larry hung up the call.
This isn’t the way to go. I have toe up with an airtight n which can ensure Joan’s safety and at
the same time, go unnoticed by the other party.
