    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2864


    Who’s harming me? I’m doing fine.


    Joan slowly got out of bed, tidied up her attire, and walked towards the window a trace of guilt set in


    her eyes. If Jake finds out that I’m actually with another man, he’ll be furious! No, I have to hurry back!


    “I’m sorry, guys. I really don’t know any of you. You must have mistaken me for someone else. Now, if


    you don’t mind, I have family waiting for me. I’m leaving now.” With that, she picked up her coat left


    aside and headed towards the exit.


    Larry quickly stepped forward and blocked her way. He gazed into her eyes affectionately, despite


    being startled by her reaction. “Joan, can’t you see? I’m your husband! I’m your one true love! Think


    hard, Joan. Jake’s not the one for you.”


    p!


    Joan pped Larry painfully on the cheek.


    No one saw iting, so they were all shocked when it actually happened. Caspian immediately led


    Jessica and Dustin out of the room. He figured the newly reunited couple needed some space to


    themselves.


    Strangely, even though she was the one who caused it, Joan felt heartbroken at the sight of Larry’s red


    and swollen face.


    No! Jake’s the one I’m marrying. That is an irreversible fact! The invitations have been sent out. I can’t


    be dilly-dallying like this. Otherwise, Jake will suffer the humiliation!


    Whoever this person was, and regardless of how he was rted to her in the past, she would not get


    involved with him anymore. Other than that, she was determined to draw a line with those people


    outside, and vowed never to have any contact with them again!


    “You’re Larry, right? Please get your people in line and tell them not to trouble me anymore! I’ll be


    marrying Jake soon, so I’ll appreciate it if you don’t disturb us.” With that said, Joan got on her feet to


    leave.


    “Joan!” Larry hugged her tightly from behind, refusing to let her go.


    This embrace… It feels familiar. Why is that though? Joan stopped struggling, allowing him to hug her


    like that. Sometimeter, Larry turned her around so that they were both looking at each other squarely


    in the face. His deep-set eyes conveyed all the affection he had for her. Gently, he took her hand in his.


    “Joan, I know you’ve suffered a lot out there. It’s my fault I haven’t been by your side. But you’re finally


    back. Please don’t leave. I will find some way to help you restore your past memories.”


    “No!”


    Two words forced Larry to hold his tongue and swallow his words.


    “Larry, I don’t care about whatever that happened in the past, or whatever we once were, alright? I


    want everything to end here.”


    She spoke so firmly and cruelly that Larry’s heart practically broke into two.


    Bang! Caspian stomped into the room.


    “Joan! Don’t you have any ounce of conscience left? Don’t you know? Larry hasn’t been himself since


    you disappeared. He cares about nothing else because he’s constantly thinking about you. He


    searched high and low for you. He even climbed a mountain alone! At one point, Norton Corporation


    had almost fallen into his rival’s hands because of you!”


    In the end, Caspian could not take it anymore. He could not stand by and watch his dear friend bear

    the brunt of Joan’s usations. He could not bring himself to see Larry and Joan get separated again.


    Caspian’s little speech only confused Joan even more. What does Norton Corporation have to do with


    me? So what if he’s been looking for me all this time? I didn’t ask him to do that!


    “I’m sorry, but I’m not the person you’re looking for. Or rather, I don’t intend to recall the past. I’m very


    happy being with Jake right now; thus I don’t need your blessings. I don’t care about what you think!”


    Joan dered fiercely.


    Joan’s gone mad! How can she say something like that?


    Jessica stared daggers at the stubborn woman. Gosh, you’re so adamant about following Jake to the


    ends of the world! Is that it? Larry clenched his fists tightly as tears welled up in his eyes.


    “What if… therees a day, when you manage to regain your memory and regret your decision to


    marry Jake? What happens then?”


    Larry’s question managed to stump Joan, but only for a moment. She hesitated but soon came up with


    a response that drove her point home, “No, I won’t have any regrets, because it’s my decision. No one


    forced me to do it. I know better than anyone else how Jake treats me!”
