    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2829


    De was baffled by Joan’s response and expression. Has she… lost her memories? Upon that


    realization, the former’s eyes widened as she studied Joan carefully. “Joan, don’t you know me?”


    “No, I’m afraid that I don’t.”


    De stole a sigh of relief. This actually works in my favor. There’s no way she will let me in if her


    memories are intact.


    “That’s alright. I’m a good friend of Jake’s. We’ve met once, but you’ve probably forgotten,” De said


    while inviting herself into the yard.


    Whoa… This is such a beautiful ce! Looks like they’re having the time of their lives. Things are just


    getting better and better for me!


    “Please take a seat. Jake is at work at the moment. I will let him know when—”


    “That’s okay. I’ll give him a callter,” De cut her off abruptly.


    For some reason, the woman’s unannounced visit stirred up a sense of apprehension in Joan. She


    shook her head, trying to shake off the unsettling thought from her mind.


    Joan invited De to sit on the sofa, where they started chattering away awkwardly. The sole purpose


    of De’s visit was to ascertain that Joan was residing at Jake’s residence. Her mission had already


    been aplished the moment Joan answered the door.


    “Joan, do you remember a man named Larry?” De asked carefully.


    Larry? Who? Joan shook her head.


    It seems like the odds are still in my favor! She has even forgotten the love of her life! Well, just her


    luck. De secretly stole a curtugh.


    “Who is he? Should I know him?”


    “Oh, no. He’s a total jerk who used to pick on you all the time. It’s better if you don’t remember him,”


    De lied effortlessly.

    Is that so? But his name doesn’t sound so bad. Joan contemted the name.


    Meanwhile, when Jake was in his office, he was notified of De’s visit to the vi. “What? De went to


    the vi?” That devil of a woman, what does she want now?


    Jake picked up his coat and darted out the door. He sped past multiple traffic lights on the way back


    without any hesitation.


    Soon, the car pulled up just outside his vi, but there was no sight of De when he entered his


    house.


    “Joan, are you alright?” Jake asked anxiously, holding onto her shoulders tightly.


    Joan took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his forehead. “I’m fine. What are you doing back


    here? Have you finished your work in the office?”


    “Oh, about that. Um, did someone drop by our house today?”


    Somehow, the words “our house” sounded foreign to Joan. “Yeah. She came looking for you and said


    that she would give you a call before she left just then. Hasn’t she called?”


    Jake cleared his throat. That vicious woman had better not call me, or I’ll give her a piece of my mind!


    “Oh, maybe she got busy.” Jake held onto Joan’s arm as they walked into the living room.


    In another development, Delh had been having a tough time trying to help Lucius recover from his


    trauma. And now, the man was slowly getting back on his feet.


    “Grandma, Ms. Lee is taking us to the beach tomorrow,” Lucius informed Delh without any


    enthusiasm in his tone.


    The boy’s downhearted look saddened Delh. “Alright, be safe while you’re out there.”


    Just then, their door was opened with a soft thud.


    When Lucius saw that it was Larry who entered, he shot the man a quick nce before running into his


    bedroom. Larry understood that Lucius was not ready to have a conversation with him, so he decided


    to not push for it.


    Although Delh knew it to be an ident, she could not stop Lucius from ming his mother’s death


    on Larry; he med his father for failing to protect Joan.


    “Is everything okay?” Larry asked while walking into the kitchen.
