Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1621Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1621
The reason was that she simply couldn’t stop worrying about that small family of three leaving for a city
so far away.
Plus, she was used to seeing her grandchild every day. Hence, she was bothered by the thought of not
being able to see him anymore for a long time and didn’t know what to do if she missed him next time.
It was only after much persuasion by Larry and Joan that Vivian finally accepted the fact without crying.
After saying farewell to both Finnick and Vivian, the couple got in the car and headed straight for
Wildefield.
Nancy and Caspian were already in the car. They just had to accompany Larry and Joan for such a
major event as Joan resumed her studies in Wildefield.
Apart from that, due to the long journey to Wildefield, Caspian had another task— to take turns driving
with Larry.
The trip was a merry one with all of them enjoying themselves, talking and laughing along the way.
A new life was about to begin as they waved their previous life goodbye.
Throughout the way, Joan was exceedingly gleeful at the thought that she would be experiencing
student life again very soon. She was even a little nervous.
“Larry, all my course mates would be younger than me by five to six years. Would they ridicule me
because of that?” Joan asked Larry a little anxiously.She was no longer the naive young girl she once was, and not only was she married, but she also had
her own child already. What if my new course mates are judgmental about me? What should I do?
“Rest assured. You look just like before, and you won’t look older than the other young girls even if you
stand together with them. Plus, it’s really common nowadays to have college students who were
married and had kids. I’m sure they won’t judge you differently just because of that. Don’t you worry.”
Joan had to admit that what Larry said did make sense.
The college culture had become very open. Not only dating and being in a relationship was usual in
college, but even getting married and having children were commonplace.
Even though Joan had left college for five to six years, but her skin was even younger-looking than the
other girls. Coupled with her remarkably charming looks, she would definitely be the prettiest among
them all.
Regardless of where and when, Larry’s words could always comfort Joan and give her peace of mind.
Listening to Larry’s words helped Joan ease her nerves, and all that was left within her mind was her
anticipation for college life.
“That’s right, Joan. I can guarantee that those boys in college would lose their minds when they saw
you. If it weren’t because you were holding a baby with such a good-looking husband beside you, even
I would be jealous!” Looking particularly envious, Nancy gave Joan a soft pinch on her porcelain skin
and couldn’t stop praising her.
“You’re such a sweet talker. What can you get by complimenting me? You yourself are a beauty,” Joan
returned the compliment as she was even elated after hearing what Nancy said.
Both Larry and Caspian took a look at each other and immediately, they understood the look in the
other’s eyes. Together, they couldn’t help but chuckled dryly as they listened to the women exchangingflatteries among themselves.
noveldramaWomen are indeed complex beings.
The ten-hour-long journey gradually came to an end amidst the chit-chat of the four people. Finally,
they reached Wildefield, and as soon as they hopped off the car, they immediately went for dinner.
During their ten-hour journey, they only had some snacks. Hence, all of them had been starving.
After dinner, they sat for a while before heading to the house that Larry bought in Wildefield.
“Whoa, the well-offs are surely on a different level. You’re only staying here for a while, but you bought
such a nice house,” looking at the small bungalow in front of him, Caspian said in a rather jealous tone.
“That’s right, Larry. You’re insanely wealthy and extravagant. If only Caspian were half as rich as you
are, I’d thank god for his benevolence!”
Nancy turned to Larry with a face full of admiration.
“Hey hey hey, that’s too much. When have I ever got stingy with you?” Caspian protested as he was
disgruntled at what Nancy said.
