Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2508

"What's bothering you? Why don't you patch things up with Joan if you're serious about her? Please tell me you're not trying to be romantically involved with all of them at once!" In order to guide him to make the right choice, Jessica tried provoking him.

He found her words reasonable, yet he had yet to figure out the proper way to deal with Della and Gabriella.

"Although Joan is no match for Della in terms of looks and capabilities, you can't lie to yourself because Joan is the only one you care about. If that's the case, why don't you be frank with her? Meanwhile, it's a piece of cake to get rid of Gabriella. Just turn her down without holding back. You know what? All of these are nothing more than trivial issues, yet you have turned it into a big deal because you won't stop overthinking!"

Larry begged to differ because the world would be a better place if they were as simple-minded as she was.

"You need to stop blurting out such nonsense because you're not even aware of the actual situation." Caspian nudged her and told her to keep her mouth shut.

"I'm pretty sure both of you are going to consider my idea naïve again. Is that really the case? Why isn't it the other way round? Chances are you guys have been thinking too much!"

Perhaps Jessica was right. Perhaps things might end up in a different way should he hold his ground. He just had to prepare himself for the potential consequences of his decisions and actions. Once Larry made up his mind, he said, "Jessica, let's head out for a meal! Consider it a treat from me!"

Jessica turned around and stared at Larry with a frown.

"What? Are you trying to tell me you're not up for a free meal? If that's the case, I'll head out without you." He walked out of his office after he enunciated his reply. Jessica yelled and went after him, "Hold on, Larry! I'm coming!"

Stuffing the pizza into her mouth, she said, "Larry, you're such a reliable man! I can't believe you have brought me to a pizza joint just because I'm craving it!" Halfway through their meal, Larry asked, "How's everything going these days? Do you need any help?"

"Everything's fine, but if you have some extra income at your disposal, feel free to invest in my business. Well, it's not like I'm trying to force you into submission or something." Larry was glad Jessica had made up her mind to start up a bookstore of her own. He wouldn't mind topping up his investment after investing a fortune in the initial phase. "Have you made up your mind? How's everything going?"

She replied with a determined look, "Yes! I'll try my best to be the largest bookstore chain in the country!"

Great! This is the Jessica I knew!

When Della showed up in the office, she asked, "Where is he?"

Caspian replied, "He had headed out for a meal."

Huh? Why is he out for a meal at such an odd hour? Upon a simple glance at her watch, Della's brows furrowed in confusion.

She added, "Has anyone else joined him?"

"M-My girlfriend..."

Della responded with a smile and was about to leave because she had never once considered Jessica a love rival.

Caspian stopped her and asked, "Ms. Duff, may I know the reason you're head over heels in love with Larry?"

"Well, it's love at first sight."

Della was never afraid of sharing the affection she had for Larry with others because she deemed it necessary to stay true to herself and the values she upheld in life. Be it her relationship or her career-she would choose to have them out in the light.

"Aren't you aware the woman Larry cares about is someone else?" Caspian reminded her.

"I'm well aware of that, but since they have filed for divorce, don't you think it's a fair match between us?"

She didn't bother to conceal her upcoming plan at all. Perhaps her bold character had something to do with her identity as the heiress of a renowned family.

When she caught him sighing, she asked, "Do you think I don't deserve Larry?"

Is that a joke? In terms of wealth, background, and fame, Larry is the one who doesn't deserve her! Nonetheless, those weren't what love is made of because the thing that matters the most in a relationship is the affection that the couples have for one another.

"Nah, I just think Larry is still going to choose Joan over you."

Oh? I guess we'll have to wait and see! No matter what's in store for me, I'll face the outcome of my decision with storm and fury! Nonetheless, I believe I can win him over one day!

"Nope! Time will prove you wrong!" Shortly, she walked out of the office.
