Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2360
Joan ignored her. She preferred not to answer questions about Larry.
Abigail couldn't pry anything out of her, so she picked up a magazine and read.
Her phone rang. She checked caller display, then looked at Joan and dashed out to answer the call.
What's wrong with that brat? She's been talking on the phone frequently these days. Joan furrowed her eyebrows.
Perhaps it's a call from her parents?
Meanwhile, in the corner of the hallway, Abigail whispered, "Hello, Larry? What's the matter?"
"Nothing, just checking on you."
She didn't buy that. She knew the purpose of his call.
"Don't try to bluff me, okay? Joan is fine. Stop worrying."
"Okay. I know I can trust you. I'll treat you to a meal someday," he said gently as though he was avoiding a child's tantrum.
"Is it true that you guys won't be attending Nancy's baby shower?"
He was surprised that she heard the news. "Yes. There are quite a lot of things to deal with."
"Joan said she won't be going either..."
As days went by, Joan remained under medical care while Larry continued his search for the shareholder.
Norton Corporation's economic development hit the bottleneck as per Dustin's plan. Since the situation was still under control, Caspian decided not to report it to Larry. Instead, he started a covert investigation to uncover the truth.
"Young man, are you looking for someone?" asked an old man out of the blue.
Larry was so exhausted that he took a while to react. That past few days, he went to several streets to replace the clues. Many offered their help, but he always came back empty-handed.
"Yes, sir. Come, let's replace a place to sit." He helped the old man to a wooden bench while engrossed in his thoughts.
"Can I see the picture? My wife said someone is looking for my brother."
Larry's eyes instantly lit up. He immediately took out the photo and handed it to the man as he observed the latter.
"Do you recognize the man in that photo?" He cut to the chase and waited expectantly for an answer.
"Oh, he was handsome when he was younger, but now he's just an old man," the elderly sighed.
Jackpot! Larry jumped from the seat with joy.
"Sir, do you really know him? Can you take me to him?" Larry asked hastily.
Other than the picture, this might be his only lead to end the long and tiring search for a man who had disappeared for years.
"First, tell me. Why are you looking for him?"
Larry hesitated. He was uncertain if he had the right to tell an outsider about Norton Corporation.
"What's wrong? It's not convenient to answer?"
"Sir, it concerns my company. I need to replace him and verify some information."
The old man let out a nonchalant smile. He stroked his beard and a flicker of amusement crossed his face. He knew Larry meant Norton Corporation because that was his first investment. Besides, only a few people in the organization knew him since he wasn't involved with its daily operation.
"Young man, what is your name?"
"My name is Larry. Sir, can you please let me meet him?" Larry asked awkwardly.
