Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2455
Bang! Out of a sudden, those photos were slammed onto the floor.
Joan the sl*t! Why does she still cling on to Caiden? And also Caiden, why must he still hang out with her? Keith rose slowly from his seat and wandered towards the balcony. His gaze darkened as he stared into the distance.
“Keith, what’s going on? What are you mad at?” Caiden’s mother rushed into the room and asked gently.
“It’s all because of your son!” Keith was beyond exasperated.
Caiden? What has he done? Isn’t he performing well in the company? She confusedly stared at Keith, unable to wrap her head around it.
“Take a look yourself!” Keith pointed at those photos with his trembling finger.
I see. Both of them were dining in a restaurant. Yes, they looked happy, but this could hardly be considered inappropriate behavior, could it?
She observed all the photos closely but failed to detect any issue.
“What’s wrong with the photos? I don’t see anything bad. They were just dining together, weren’t they?” She gave her opinion with a soft voice.
It’s not as simple as it seems. Obviously, that woman is clinging on to my son!
“She is trying to get close to Caiden!” Keith stomped his foot in exasperation.
Unexpectedly, the woman in front of him started laughing. “Keith, you are overthinking. I know my own son perfectly to know that he will never take back his words. And he said that he would never have any relationship with Joan.”
As a mother, she was unshaken with her confidence for her beloved son, even though they did not spend much time together. She was sure between him, and Joan was nothing but pure friendship.
“I can’t allow this. I must do something.” Keith was still mumbling angrily.
Concerned by his motive, Caiden’s mother stepped towards Keith.
“Keith, don’t act harshly. Joan has not done anything to Caiden, and Caiden is currently excelling in the company, isn’t he? If you stick your nose into his business, I’m afraid he will create a fuss later,” she persuaded anxiously.
However, Keith was too furious at the moment to accept her wise advice.
What a stubborn old man! He says that Caiden never comes back until there is a dead end. Wasn’t he the same when he was young?
Slowly, darkness began consuming the city. Staring at the desolate moon in the sky, Caiden was feeling extraordinarily lonely.
Back when Joan was still by his side, he was easily satisfied by her presence alone. She would not need to do anything, and he could still feel like the luckiest man on this planet. Unfortunately, reality had changed. Even if Joan might be close with him physically, their hearts felt like light-years apart.
“What’s concerning you? Are you alright?” Joan asked with care, supposedly as a normal friend.
“Nothing.” Caiden shook his head while displaying a helpless expression.
Maybe he’s just tired. She turned her face away and gazed out of the window.
“Joan, I wanted to ask you something.” Just then, Caiden opened his mouth again.
“Yes?” Joan shifted her gaze back to him.
“We’ve known each other for such a long time. Tell me something. Did you ever love me? I want an honest answer.”
Apparently, that question was meaningless at the moment, and the answer was rather obvious.
“Where is this coming from?” Joan smiled with a complicated look.
If she answers a yes, I will give all in to pursue her. I will love her, protect her, take care of her and never leave her. But I know her answer would be a no.
“Nothing. I was just curious about it. Please give me an honest answer,” Caiden said.
Joan knew perfectly that she could not possibly say yes, even if that was true. Moreover, there had always been one man in her heart, and that was Larry.
“Caiden, we have always been friends, haven’t we?” Joan wisely directed the question back to him.
