Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2207

"Yes, I'm listening," replied Larry slowly.

He had been listening without registering the words.

"Alright. I'll go on, then."

Right then, Jessica stepped into the office and interjected, "Stop babbling nonsense. Men should focus on their careers before their families. Larry can get another wife, no problem. He can take his pick out of many girls out there, including me."

Ugh, another annoying person! Larry took a deep breath and carried on with his work.

"Hey, Ms. Zimmer. It's late. Why are you here?" Caspian spun on his heels and greeted her.

"Oh, I'm here to have dinner with Mr. Norton and talk about our collaboration," was her reply.

Seriously? Back then, when Norton Corporation wanted to partner up with them, their representative refused to show up. Why is she here to discuss a partnership all of a sudden?

Is this another trap? Larry studied her warily.

"Ms. Zimmer, it's getting late, so we should talk about this tomorrow," he responded cautiously.

Jessica glanced at him and stalked over arrogantly.

She insisted on discussing with him that night, no matter if he liked it or not.

"Why? Are you refusing to work with us?" she retorted.

Larry was firm. "I have something on at home."

There was no way he would stay to discuss a partnership with her as he had already found a suitable manufacturing company. Thus, there was no need to keep in touch with the Zimmer family. Larry gave them plenty of time to consider, but they didn't even bother to give him a reply. Now, even if they were reaching out to him, he couldn't be bothered to give a d*mn.

"Are you rejecting local manufacturers now that your business is expanding?" Jessica sneered.

Larry scoffed.

What a joke. Her family was the one who betrayed me in the first place!

"Yep, you're right. I don't like working with someone who had betrayed me," Larry mocked.

His answer was crystal clear.

"Are you upset, Mr. Norton? You might've partnered up with the biggest manufacturer abroad, but you can't be certain they will continue collaborating with you, can you? Isn't it better to have a local backup manufacturer?" Jessica offered.

Caspian nodded in agreement, but Larry was unconvinced. Even if the foreign manufacturer terminated their contract, he still wouldn't partner up with the Zimmer family.

Once he made a decision, he would go ahead no matter what the result would be. Besides, Norton Corporation was capable enough of replaceing another partner.

"I need to go. You guys can talk." Larry turned to leave.

He had to admit that Caspian and Jessica seemed like a great match, so he decided to let them spend some time together.

At first, Jessica might reject Caspian, but as long as he held on, she would eventually cave in and agree to be his girlfriend.

After all, women were emotional, including those who worked in the corporate world. Jessica, especially, was someone who lacked security.

Strangely, Jessica's father had been out of reach for some time. Larry shook his head and strode out.

As Caspian and Jessica were left alone in the office, the air turned awkward in an instant.

"Why don't I treat you to dinner instead?" Caspian suggested.

At the moment, Jessica was shaking with rage as Larry had rejected her invitation right in front of Caspian. That was humiliating!
