Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2810
Get Me Out Of Here Now
“Jake, I warn you not to lay a finger on them. Otherwise, I’ll never forgive you!” Joan said fiercely, without a trace of warmth in her tone.
Wow, is she threatening me? Jake scoffed and looked at her contemptuously. What gives? How did she manage to pluck up her courage and speak to me in that manner?
However, Jake actually enjoyed Joan communicating with him in that tone. That’s her true colors!
“Relax… As long as you’re obedient to me, I won’t hurt them,” replied Jake, then he immediately hung up.
Beep! Beep! Beep! After the call was disconnected, Joan was a little exasperated.
Jake, what made you so cruel and vicious? She buried her head in the sheets and closed her eyes slowly, forcing herself to sleep.
The next morning, a familiar female voice boomed closer to Joan as she was lazing on the bed.
“Hurry up and keep searching!”
“Don’t dilly-dally, quick!”
Hmm? Isn’t this…? Joan rose to her feet and examined the situation outside from the window. That’s Jessica! Damn it!
She hurriedly picked up her phone and made a call.
“What’s next? What do you want me to do?” a calm male voice asked.
“Get me out of here now and bring me back at night,” she requested reluctantly.
Finally, she’s come to her senses. Jake was glad that Joan called. He had already known that Jessica would be at the seaside to look for Joan that day, but he wanted to test Joan’s reaction.
Without further ado, he grabbed his jacket and headed out right away.
Shortly after, he arrived at the beach. Joan had changed into some casual clothing and left with Jake after informing the old couple.
“Where to?” he asked in the car.
That’s a good question that requires deep thinking. The world is so big, yet, there’s no place I can go.
“I…” Before she could suggest anything, Jake drove off.
He sped all the way, driving recklessly while Joan held on to her seatbelt. Squinting her eyes, she dared not look ahead.
This man has gone mad!
“Slow down, Jake!” she yelled at him. Ignoring her advice, he continued to accelerate.
After some time, the car came to a stop.
As soon as the car door was opened, Joan leaned over and vomited profusely. Jake stood by her side with his eyes fixated on her, a little worried.
“You’re so frail and feeble, why do you still do the odd jobs for the old couple?” Walking closer to her, he carefully hid his concerns by suppressing his true feelings.
Does that have anything to do with him? She glared at him and ignored his comments. Moments later, she recovered and could stand on her own feet. Looking ahead, she realized that there was a luxurious European-style villa right below her nose, sitting in a beautiful and serene environment.
Where is this place? Intrigued, she scanned her surroundings.
“Come over here!” Jake invited her from a short distance away.
She was startled for a second, then followed suit.
“So? Do you like it?”
She was confused. Why is he asking me this question? What’s this all about?
“Not bad,” she simply replied.
Even though it was not a pertinent answer, her simple words were sufficient to make Jake grin from ear to ear. He pulled her inside. “Let’s go in and have a look!”
She was entirely stunned the moment she entered. This villa is humongous! There’s a large lawn, a swimming pool, and even a golf course… While marveling at all the facilities in perplexity, she wondered why Jake brought her there.
