Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2544
What is that foolish boy thinking?
“Keith, what’s wrong? Why are you so angry?” Caiden’s mom came downstairs and asked Keith with concern.
“It’s nothing,” he replied.
Did Caiden do something to get on his nerves again? She returned to her room and made a call at once.
“Hello, Caiden is driving so he can’t speak at the moment.”
A child’s voice was heard over the line.
Who is this? Mrs. Owens’ suspicions were aroused. “Who are you?” she asked softly.
“I’m Lucius!”
“Lucius, don’t touch Caiden’s phone!” A female voice was heard in the background.
Mrs. Owens felt that the voice sounded familiar. After racking her brains, she finally recalled where she heard it before.
Its Joan! Why is Caiden involved with her again? Clenching her fists, she grew concerned.
No wonder Keith is furious, he must have known about this.
“Your mom called just now,” Joan informed.
“I know,” Caiden plainly replied.
He knew that he was going to face another barrage of questions later.
“Thank you, Caiden!” At the door, Lucius cried out as he bowed in Caiden’s direction.
“Alright, go on in now. Call me if there’s anything.” Caiden waved at Lucius with a smile.
It’s unlikely for a kid like him to get into much trouble. Even if he did, it would be unreasonable to call me for help.
“Lucius, you’re home!” Delilah greeted him with a delightful grin.
“Grandma, Caiden gave Mom and I a ride home,” Lucius exclaimed as he threw himself into Delilah’s arms.
“Hello,” Delilah greeted when she saw Caiden at the door.
She didn’t invite him in as she was reluctant to have anything to do with him anymore.
“Ms. Young,” Caiden returned her greeting with a smile.
“Anyway, I’ll take my leave now.” With that, he turned and walked to his car.
“Who is that man?” A male voice rang out from behind Joan as he watched the car drive away.
“Caiden,” Joan replied.
“Dustin, don’t you have anything better to do?” Dustin asked.
Only then did Joan realize that Dustin was behind her.
“Erm, I am quite free and even bored actually,” he replied mischievously.
“Isn’t there a lot to do at the supermarket?” Joan asked.
“I’ve finished all my work,” Dustin replied with a shrug.
That annoying fool. When will he ever leave me in peace? Joan gave him a cruel stare.
However, Dustin no longer cared for how she treated him.
“I’m warning you not to come by my place so often. Or else, people will start talking.” Just as she spoke, Delilah went back into her house.
“Ms. Young, why are you chasing me away? You know how much I love you…” Dustin tried to flatter her as he followed her in.
“Joan, go and get some groceries as we’re out,” Delilah remarked suddenly in the living room.
Joan went into the kitchen and checked the fridge. Just as Delilah had said, it was empty.
“In that case, I’ll head out now.” She left right after she spoke.
“Dustin, come here!” Delilah yelled at him.
When he saw her fearsome expression, Dustin knew that something was amiss.
“Ms. Young, what is it?” he quickly caught up with her and asked.
“What happened between you and Joan? Don’t you dare tell me nothing!” Delilah demanded.
At that moment, Dustin felt awkward.
Joan was supposed to tell Delilah what happened between both of them. But after dragging her feet, it only served to arouse Delilah’s suspicions.
