Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2566
The second Joan arrived home, Delilah ran over, held her hand, and brought her to the couch with an amiable expression.
“How did the photoshoot go? Is it done?” she asked promptly with a grin.
“Yeah, it’s done.”
“Do the photos look good? Let me see it,” the woman asked eagerly.
“The photos are not ready yet.”
“I want to see the digital ones.”
Since when does Ms. Young become so concerned about Larry’s and my wedding? She used to respect my opinions and decisions. Why does she keep urging me to marry Larry recently? Casually, Joan fished out her phone, clicked into the gallery, and showed her the photos.
“Mmm, not bad. They look great. Joan, after getting married, you and Larry must cherish one another and live well together, alright? Don’t get involved with other men like Dustin, Caiden, and Jake…” Delilah advised earnestly.
Why do her words sound so awkward? Staring at the woman, it finally struck Joan that Delilah wished that she and Larry would live happily ever after. Their marriage was a way to dash the hopes of the other men.
“I got it, Ms. Young. Don’t worry,” she answered lightly.
“I’ve discussed with Larry. Once the pre-wedding photos are out, you two are going to pick a date and hold the wedding.”
That’s fast. A hint of excitement flashed across Joan’s eyes.
“Ms. Young, I prefer a quiet and low-profile wedding,” she whispered.
Delilah no doubt understood the woman’s thoughts, so she had made the proper arrangements.
“Sure.”
In the office, Caspian ran in and asked, “Larry, I heard you and Joan took pre-wedding photos.”
“It’s true,” Larry replied while signing some documents.
Instantly, Jessica leaned against his desk, staring intently at him with an inquisitive look.
“Larry, how did you win Joan over?” she asked.
“Stop disturbing me. I’m busy,” Larry replied.
How boring! Why doesn’t he just tell us about it? Standing upright, Jessica headed to the couch.
“Shouldn’t you both register your marriage already?” Larry suggested out of the blue.
Lifting his head, Caspian glanced at the woman with grievance.
I long to marry Jessica, but she wants to put her career first. Fine, it’s up to her. I’m willing to do anything as long as she’s happy.
Sitting down, he started reading a document.
“There’s no need to rush. We’re still young,” Jessica replied bashfully.
“No, you’re not young anymore. It’s time to have a baby,” Larry said intentionally.
He has voiced out my heart’s desire. Caspian was all ears, waiting keenly for her answer.
“We’ll talk about this later,” she declined directly.
In a split second, the air in the office stilled.
Just as expected by Caspian, the woman stood firm and refused to change her mind.
“Yes, we’re not in a hurry,” he played along. Glancing at his beloved woman, he gave her a reassuring smile.
His words filled her heart with warm fuzzies.
She admired his patience. That was why she chose to spend the rest of her life with this man.
Who says that couples have to get married? Who says that people must have babies after getting married? These are only viewpoints of some conservative people. Spinning the pen in her hand, the woman was engrossed in her thoughts.
Watching the couple’s reactions, Larry seemed to have understood something, so he didn’t speak further.
Meanwhile, Jory advised gently, “Dustin, since things have already turned out this way. Why don’t you get over her?”
Dustin stared blankly out the window. His eyes glazed over.
Should I really give up? I’m a little lost right now. I’ve always been determined to marry Joan, but she refuses to give me a single chance.
