Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2325Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2325
Frowning, Larry flipped through the documents in silence and fell into a deep thought.
Something about that elusive shareholder from Norton Corporation was bugging him. Since nobody
knew of his whereabouts, it was almost impossible to acquire his shares. Apart from that, Larry could
foresee Dustin blindsiding him. He couldn’t let his guard down in the face of such a cunning and
manipulative foe.
“Caspian, our options are limited if we don’t find that shareholder.”
“Yes, sir!” The bodyguard left after he received his orders.
Larry and Jessica sat on the sofa. Unnerved by the silence, she started chattering nonstop, to his
annoyance.
“Jessica, you’re not young anymore. You lack the demeanor and maturity of women of your age. I
really wonder how you are going to cope after you’re married,” Larry blurted out with great concern.
His words dumbfounded Jessica.
The next moment, a wave of fury surged within her.
“What’s the matter with you, Larry? You’re criticizing me for trying to cheer you up? I’m really
disappointed with you. Where’s your conscience?” Jessica refuted in displeasure.
Larry was at a loss for words.
No sh*t! You always appear at the wrong time when I’m busy or I need some a moment to myself.Regardless of his frustration, there was nothing he could do to Jessica. Caspian was his buddy, and he
loved her.
In fact, Larry’s extreme tolerance towards her didn’t escape Caspian, who was both touched and
appreciative for having such an understanding buddy. For Joan, however, the show of affection for
another woman was an act of betrayal to herself.
“Alright, thanks for your concern. But, can you go to Caspian? I have something to attend to,” Larry
tried to coax her.
He’s chasing me away again! Jessica pouted unhappily.
Her displeasure was short-lived due to her easygoing nature. ”What do you feel like eating? I’ll buy you
lunch,” she asked Larry eagerly.
“I’m not hungry.” It was a flat out refusal.
Jessica shrugged. It’s the same response every time.
She knew he was not a fussy-eater. Even though he always turned her down, he would finish whatever
she brought for him to fill his stomach. He’s so busy he doesn’t even have time to go for lunch. He’ll
starve if I don’t feed him.
“Are you leaving now?” Caspian asked the moment she stepped out of Larry’s office.
“I’ll be back in a while with his lunch.”
“Oh… How about me? I’m starving too?”
noveldramaJessica rolled her eyes, speechless by his jealousy. What’s the matter with this man? How could he
forget that I always include him whenever I buy for Larry?“It’s a bit late now. I have to go. See you then.” She gestured to him and left at once.
At the main entrance of Norton Corporation, a woman was pacing back and forth in one corner, lost in
her thoughts. It was Joan who wanted to talk it out with Larry. She was disappointed to see Jessica exit
the building.
I bet Larry must be happy to have her around! Joan clenched her fists, feeling defeated.
Jessica is indeed a caring woman. Look at how she always ensures Larry is taking his meals regularly.
She’s definitely a better wife for him compared to me!
Forget it. I’d better go back first. She left without another glance.
Honk! Joan froze in shock. A car sped past, almost knocking her down when she was preoccupied with
other thoughts.
“Are you alright? Are you hurt?” Jessica dashed toward her and asked anxiously.
Huh? Why is she here? Joan was stunned and looked at her quizzically.
“I was buying lunch, and I saw you here,” Jessica explained softly.
