Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2377

"You must be tired. Come and get some rest." She got ready to leave his embrace.

Larry buried his head below her neck and pleaded, "Can you stay and rest with me?"

To her, his pheromone was like honey to ants, irresistible. She gently nodded and went back into bed with him.

The business was slow at the supermarket, possibly affected by the earlier incident, whereby Dustin faked a contract in his attempt to usurp Larry's position.

Dustin was seated at the sofa, languid. He felt helpless. His plans to destroy Larry failed, and he did not win over Joan. What was worse was that he had lost touch with her as well. All the unexpected turns of events made him anxious and down.

"Mr. Silverman, are we bringing out the new stock today?" one of the staff walked in to consult Dustin.

"No," he replied.

The staff at the supermarket could see he was not in a jovial mood, so they left him alone.

"Do you think our manager is going to stay down in the dumps for long?"

"I hope not. He doesn't look like such a weakling."

"But he has been depressed for so long."

A few of the staff were gathered in a corner, talking about Dustin. They were concerned for him.

They had developed a cordial relationship with Dustin, so they were willing to overlook the mistake he made. They knew he was just impulsive and was not an evil guy by nature. "Shall we call Joan and ask her to come by to console the manager?"

"I think better not. That's not very appropriate."

"What is inappropriate? There is nothing wrong with showing concern to your colleagues." However, the problem was that Dustin and Joan were not just colleagues.

"What are you talking about?" Dustin was running his fingers over his messy hair as he walked over and asked.

He came over because he heard them mentioned Joan's name.

"Nothing much. Shall we get together for a meal tonight?" one of them asked, changing the subject abruptly.

"Joan, you are here," Caspian greeted.

"Joan!" Jessica burst out. Joan was thrilled to be there.

All the staff at Norton Corporation had their eyes on Joan and they seemed glad to see her.

"Oh my! Mrs. Norton is finally here."

"Ya. But I thought they are divorced? Have they reconciled?"

"Who knows? But divorce is not permanent, so they can always remarry."

The staff at Norton Corporation were secretly rooting for Larry and Joan to get back together. The two of them had been through thick and thin, and it would be such a shame for them to part ways. "Why are you here?" Larry immediately stood up and asked.

"I came to visit you and brought you lunch." She brought out the food and placed it on Larry's table.

"The weather is getting colder out there, so don't bother coming," Larry remarked.

Why? He doesn't want me here? Joan was offended, so she went to sit down on the sofa and ignored him.

Larry was not aware of her mood change as he was focused on his work on hand.

Joan stole glances at Larry as she mindlessly swiped on her phone. It did not take long for her anger to dissipate.

She could see how busy he was that he did not have time to get sufficient rest and eat proper meals. She felt sorry for him.

She stood up, walked over to him, and pleaded softly, "Larry, it is past working hours. Can you take a break and eat something?" Larry looked up upon hearing her voice. He stared at the face in front of him that he adored, and smiled.

"Okay. Feed me," he quipped and waited with his mouth opened.

"Stop fooling around. This is the office," she nudged him and protested.

"Then, I shall not eat." Larry turned and continued with his work.

Since when has he become such a rascal? Joan tilted her head and thought for a little while. Then, she proceeded to open up his lunchbox.
