Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1379

Lyna exited the building soon after. She was in her car when she admired the tall building where the office was located. The mere thought of how she would own the place soon got her to chuckle aloud.

The employee Lyna instructed to deliver the contract grinned after Lyna left. He walked to the garden right in front of the company and smiled before fishing his phone out and dialing a number. "Hi, Mr. Goldstein. I have the document with me. Should I deliver it to you now?"

"Yeah, just drop by Phoenix Group. I'll be waiting on the ground floor for you," replied Jason calmly.

"Got it. I will head over right away."

Jason couldn't contain the excitement burning in his heart after he hung the call up.

"Hahaha, even I have to admit that I'm awesome! I've been working for Fabian for a while now, and I've truly grown into a man who can play with the big fishes. Ah, I have to hurry over now. I wonder how Fabian will praise me upon receiving this," muttered Jason.

He was so excited that he was talking to himself, and the smile on his face was ever so bright.

Wayne was pacing around in his office at that moment. He wondered, Is it too late to turn around? He felt like he would be doomed either way if he had done as asked. This will hurt Fabian, but I'm no better off either. Every single one of Fabian's friends can easily destroy me to avenge him.

However... Will Fabian forgive me if I turn around and change my mind now? No, that is not possible. I know Fabian well, and I know how he'd react.

"Gah, whatever! I'm going all out! I will take an international flight and flee overseas once this is done. The world is so big, and there has got to be a place where Fabian can't replace me."

Wayne muttered to himself before he steeled himself up to do the evil deed.

After that, he walked out of his office and made sure that no one was around before he headed back in. He then locked the door.

Taking a deep breath, Wayne fished his phone out and called Lyna, who was also being controlled after someone got ahold of her secret. Beep! Beep! Beep!

Bang!

Just then, someone knocked down the door to Wayne's office.

Wayne was so surprised that he backed away a few steps and shifted his gaze toward the door.

Huh? Who is that?

Wayne realized that he had no idea who the intruder was.

"Mr. man."

That voice was like thunder on a sunny day. It echoed by Wayne's ears and told him that his good times were over.

Wayne couldn't help but gulp, hard. He tilted his head to see the man standing behind the intruder before he mumbled, "M-Mr. Norton."

Wayne felt like his entire world had just turned dim.

"Hello, Mr. man."

The man behind the intruder was none other than Fabian.

"W-what brought you here?" asked Wayne.

He quickly ended his call and placed his mobile phone back in his pocket.

"What's wrong? As the president of Phoenix Group, am I not allowed to visit my employees and see how their works are progressing?" asked Fabian as he took two steps forward and grinned at Wayne. Wayne couldn't help shivering a little when he saw Fabian's grin. He quickly replied, "Of course you're allowed to do so. Nothing wrong with that!"

Fabian tapped Wayne's shoulder lightly before asking, "What's wrong? Are you feeling under the weather, Mr. man? You're sweating so much." Wayne wiped his forehead upon hearing those words. He turned to Fabian and replied, "No, I'm fine. I'm feeling okay."

"Haha."

Fabian chuckled as he walked directly to Wayne's desk and sat down on the chair. The former leaned back and asked again, "Oh, then are you sweating because you did something bad and are feeling guilty about it?"

"N-no, I just feel a little hot," insisted Wayne after hearing what Fabian said. Unfortunately, Wayne sounded stiff as he lied.

Fabian fell silent.

Do you really take me as an idiot?

Fabian still couldn't quite figure things out. Why would Wayne betray me? I trained him and helped him become the man he is today. Why is he doing all this now that Phoenix Group has grown to be so big?
