After hearing that, Jessica's face instantly brightened up.

"Really? You still have money?" she asked as she leaned on the table, staring at Larry with her doe-like eyes.

This punk...

I Know she’s only doing this out of courtesy.

Larry knocked on her head lightly with his knuckles before nodding.

"What about money for dates? Do you have enough for that? You know you'll need to spend a lotto court Joan, like treating her to meals and movies, as well as buying her beauty products,” sheuttered while counting the mentioned activities with her fingers.

When did she become this talkative? Caspian stared at Jessica before unconsciously letting out ayawn, while Larry gazed intently at her, feeling happy that his somewhat adorable god-sister wasthinking for his sake.

"Here.l still think it's best if you have them."

"No.You can keep it. Who knows, maybe it'll come in handy when you hang out with Joan" statedLarry.

Huh...

I suppose he's right! Convinced, Jessica scooped the cards from the table and put them back intoher purse.

Caspian shook his head as he watched the scene unfold right before him.

Since when has she become this materialistic? Despite the thought, adoration still filled his eyes ashe gazed at the woman he loved.

"Okay! I'll take my leave then! I'm gonna go take Joan out shopping now!" she informed before sheskipped out of the office, looking like a happy child.

When she was no longer in sight, Caspian approached Larry and told him seriously, "You shouldhave kept the cards, Larry, since you need the money more than anyone else right now: Eventhough Larry was short on funds now, he was still determined to stay strong and deal with thissituation himself.

"Don't worry.Everything will be fine?” he replied with an assuring smile.Soon, the issue was startingto get resolved.Nevertheless, the employees’ salaries remained a hurdle to Larry since he was stillstrapped for cash.Norton Corporation had almost reached its rock-bottom before .Deprived ofbetter options, he had decided to shift the company’s direction into a fashion industry.Unfortunately, just when his business was beginning to stabilize, such an incident occurred, whichtriggered his anxiety.

The reason being, at the early stages of the company's sudden change, he had invested a large sumof money.

Even before the current incident, they had already suffered a huge loss.

Hence, the current economic situation was a massive downturn.

Sitting on the sofa in his office, Larry closed his eyes as he massaged his temples, trying to calmhimself down.

Entering the office, Caspian questioned in concern, "Larry? What's wrong? Are you feeling sick?"Larry simply waved his hand in response.He had been feeling lost recently.

Was the shift a mistake? Is the company suffering now because I was too stubborn back then? Larrysmacked his head harshly, trying to get a hold of himself.

"Larry, what are you doing?"

Caspian was growing anxious upon witnessing Larry hitting himself.

He understood that the latter must be feeling frustrated, so he wished to help Larry with all hismight.

"Larry!"

All of a sudden, Jory's voice echoed as he barged into the office.

Huh? What is he doing here? Larry raised his head and stared at the man in confusion.

"Larry!"

Another voice sounded.

This time, it was Nancy.

What's going on? What are they doing here?

"Nancy said she wants to invest in your company”

Jory's sudden declaration startled Larry, but he was quick enough to recompose himself.

"This isn't a joke, Nancy.How are you going to invest when you don't understand a thing about thefashion industry?” Larry warned.

How could he say that when I'm here to invest? Nancy scrutinized Larry, puzzled.Shouldn't he behappy instead? Besides, it's obvious I know that this isn't a joke! I just want to help him!
