Now Joan was interested.

“When? Where did they gₒ? |ₛ ₕₑ handsome? He didn't bully her, right?”

Her string of questions confused Lucius.

“Erm, he was quite handsome. He was very tall too, and he wore a cap-”

Before Lucius had finished his sentence, Joan had rushed into the living room to confront Delilah.

“Ms. Young, I heard that you have a boyfriend now?” Joan teased Delilah.

Delilah seemed flustered at her question.

Joan smirked at her reaction.

“Of course not. Lucius is just spinning some tall tales,” Delilah protested weakly.

“I didn't say Lucius told me about it,” Joan pointed out.

Delilah blushed furiously.

“It's perfectly fine to date at any age as long as you're happy,” Joan said.

“I'm going to sleep.” Delilah beelined for her bedroom without answering Joan.

What a cute lady! Joan's eyes filled with humor as she watched Delilah's escape.

I guess it's good if she found someone she really loved.

Joan glanced at her watch. Larry was nowhere to be seen despite the late hour.

It was pitch-black outside. Even the moon was absent. Joan began to feel uneasy. Eventually, she pulled out her phone and called him.

“Hello?” A woman answered the call.

When Joan heard her voice, her heart sank. Her hands began shaking as she hesitated on what to say.

“Where's Larry?” she collected herself before asking.

“He's taking a bath,” Della replied.

The phone slipped from Joan's grasp onto the floor.

“Hello? Joan?”

Della's voice drifted out of the receiver.
