Chapter 1879 She Never Changes
noveldramaLarry knew the shareholders would cause trouble, so he had been planning his return the whole time.
From what I’ve observed throughout the past few days, Ms. Young’s flowers seem to be doing just fine,
so I guess I could head back tomorrow…
With that in mind, Larry said, “Got it, I’ll head back tomorrow.”
Selena was surprised to hear what he said, and the gleam in her eyes turned dull as she felt somewhat
disappointed.
Should I at least hold a farewell party for him or something?
“I’ll be heading back tomorrow, Selena…” Larry stared longingly at her, feeling reluctant to leave.
“Yeah…” Selena lowered her gaze to avoid his.
“W-Will you come with me?” Larry held her hand tightly, catching her off guard.
Is he seriously asking me to go live with him?
“I… I’ve got work tomorrow…” Selena said awkwardly while scratching the back of her head, much to
Larry’s relief as she didn’t reject him directly.
“That’s no problem, Mom! Just take some days off or something! Besides, given how rich Dad is, you
could even quit your job!” Lucius showed up at the door all of a sudden.
Larry looked at him and gave him a thumbs up in response.Gosh, I love how kind and straightforward this kid is!
Selena stared at the two of them and felt that there was something off about their interactions. Lucius
has spent more time with me, so why is he taking Larry’s side in this?
“For the hundredth time, Lucius… You should address him as ‘Mr. Norton’!” Selena corrected him once
again.
Lucius walked over and plopped himself down in between the two, making the three of them looked just
like a normal family. A smile formed on Delilah’s face when she saw what happened while on her way
to her room.
I suppose this isn’t too bad, after all.
Knock! Knock! Knock! Delilah got out of bed when she heard someone knocking on her door.
“Ms. Young, may I have a little chat with you in the living room?” Larry asked politely.
Delilah went straight to the living room without any hesitation.
“How did you get to know Selena?” Larry observed her carefully.
Since I’ll be leaving tomorrow, I might as well find out about it now…
Delilah knew it was only a matter of time before he asked her about this, but she didn’t expect it to
come so soon.
“I found her by the side of the river. She was badly injured with wounds all over her body…” Delilah
began recounting the incident in detail while Larry listened attentively for fear of missing out on any
details.“Selena is a good girl, so I hope you will treat her well.” Delilah shot him a hopeful look, catching him off
guard.
So she knew about it all along!
“I’ll be honest with you here, Ms. Young. Selena’s real name is Joan Watts, and she is actually my
wife,” Larry explained.
The two then had a long conversation before returning to their respective bedrooms.
Larry felt his heart ache a little as he stared at Selena’s sleeping form. God knows how much pain and
suffering she must have been through during her time here…
As he ran his hand gently through her hair, she grabbed it and held it tightly against her chest. She then
smacked her lips and smiled as if she was having a sweet dream.
Larry chuckled to himself in response.
She never changes, does she?
“Are you really leaving, Dad?” Lucius asked while clinging to his arm.
Selena stared at him from the side, eagerly waiting for his answer.
“I’ve got some stuff to take care of at work, so I have to head back for a bit,” Larry said while giving the
boy a kiss on the forehead.
Lucius pouted helplessly as he had taken a day off from school to spend it with Larry.
Delilah, too, had stayed home that day just to see him off, and things were getting really awkward at
the table.Although Larry had only been living with them for a week, it was more than enough for them to see him
as family.
“Thank you, Ms. Young. Here’s to you, cheers!” Larry stood up and downed his entire glass of wine in
one go.
“Cheers!” As Delilah didn’t like alcohol, she toasted with a cup of tea instead.
