Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2435

Sensing her worries, Larry gave up persuading her. He respected her choice.

"Dinner's ready!" Delilah called out from the dining room.

It felt like such a long time since they had a meal together as a family. Now, everything was back to normal again.

Although Keith had stopped replaceing trouble for Joan, Larry was just getting started. He wanted revenge for the woman he loved.

"Mr. Norton, are we really doing this?" His assistant looked at him in disbelief.

"Yes. Cut all ties with the Owens family. We will not work with them anymore." There was not the slightest bit of hesitation in his voice. They got what they deserved for testing my limits.

Touching Joan was the worst move anyone could have made, for to hurt her meant hurting him. Larry did not care whether his opponent was Keith or a child, he would not let the person who hurt Joan off the hook that easily.

"Mr. Norton, maybe we can reconsider this? The Owens family is a large corporation with great influence. I think..." His assistant listed all sorts of reasons in an attempt to dissuade him. Indeed, with a corporation of their scale, many companies would do anything for a chance to collaborate with them. Larry's decision would undoubtedly cause Norton Corporation some loss. "My decision's final. I'll bear the consequences myself." Larry's resolute gaze silenced the assistant.

"Are you serious? Mr. Norton's terminating all our projects with the Owens family?"

"Exactly. I wonder what he's thinking. Why is he making an enemy out of them?" A few employees were gossiping about the matter discreetly.

News spread fast. Very soon, the whole company was talking about this. They could not believe that Larry had done this for a woman.

Meanwhile, Larry was in his office busy with work. He paid no heed to the gossips that were spreading like wildfire. His decision was not on impulse. There was plenty of preparation leading to this. Caspian strode angrily toward the lift in the lobby. He pressed the floor to Larry's office.

"Larry! How could you do this? Your personal feud with Caiden is a separate matter from work. Your rash decision will only drag the company down!" he shouted at the top of his lungs.

"I know," was Larry's calm reply.

Does he really know? Caspian knew that once their collaboration with the Owens family falls through, they would have to search for another business partner. That would mean redesigning the project, brief, etc., This was not just an issue about time, many other things such as their employees' productivity were on the line.

"Larry, why don't you have a talk with Caiden? Heck, you can talk to Keith too, if you'd like. I'm sure things isn't as bad as it looks. If you're not comfortable with meeting them, I can go on your behalf! Caspian said hurriedly.

Larry, however, wanted absolutely nothing to do with the Owens family anymore. "Caspian, I have my morals to stick to. They hurt Joan and this is something I cannot forgive," he replied coldly.

"Let's just take a step back and think this through. Isn't Joan doing fine now? She's not saying anything, so why are you..."

"Have you forgotten your position? Stop interfering in this!" Larry lashed out.

At that, Caspian had no choice but to walk out of the room pitifully. Soon after, Caiden arrived. His presence meant that the Owens family had caught wind of Larry's decision.

"Mr. Norton, aren't you acting a bit too rashly?" Caiden asked in a low voice.

"If this is why you came today, you may leave now. My decision's final. I see no reason for us to collaborate anymore." Once Larry had decided on something, it was near impossible to change his mind. "Are you going to jeopardize your entire career just for Joan?" How ridiculous!
