Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2685

Everything Is In Order

Della wailed and then whimpered. Her feelings towards Larry were nothing but genuine. Sadly, there could only be one woman in his heart.

"Why wouldn't you even look at me? Why must you choose Joan! Larry, why can't we, you know, try to be together? You have feelings for me too, don't you? Don't you!" Della plunged her crimson red lips onto Larry's.

"Kiss me..." she murmured.

Larry was taken aback, and his mind went blank for a second. He pushed her away once he got back to his senses.

Click! It was the perfect moment for the camera.

"Excellent!" The man was on cloud nine.

"Are we done yet? Can we go now?" The girl beside him whispered.

"Of course not. The show has just begun." He patted her on the head and let out a sly grin.

"You're out of your mind!" Larry lost it.

"No! I'm not! I just can't wait any longer! I don't want to hold it in anymore," Della sobbed pitifully.

"I'm leaving."

Larry picked up his phone, and just as he was about to turn around and leave, Della lunged towards his back and held him tightly in her arms. Anyone seeing this would assume that something was going on between them.

"Please don't go. I beg you. Don't leave me..."

At that moment, Della was the epitome of vulnerability. Her words would draw sympathy from anyone. Nevertheless, Larry remained stoic.

"Larry, let's get steady, okay?"

"No!"

He mercilessly picked her hands off his waist and walked out.

Her love for him reduced into specks of dust and dispersed into thin air as she saw him leaving. Her passion was stamped out.

Larry has always been so cold, and he always pushes me aside!

Della sunk into the couch and stared blankly at the ceiling with her vacant eyes. She was lost and was thinking of retreating, but that was never an option. There was no turning back for her this time.

"S-So? D-Did you get it?" She pulled the phone to her ears.

"Everything's in order, Ms. Duff. Don't you worry." It was a light-hearted reply.

Very well, Larry. You'll know what's coming at you tomorrow!

Della flung her phone onto the coffee table and fondled her hair. She let her eyelids drop as she quietly awaited sunrise.

The next day, as Della expected, scandalous news of Larry and her were all over town. Every street and every corner was bubbling with the made-up affair.

"Larry, what's going on!" Delilah bawled and flung the newspaper onto Larry's hands. Larry just got up and had no clue about why Delilah was so waspish. "Ms. Young, what made you lose your rag so early in the morning?"

He slowly turned the newspaper open and read the headline word by word.

"The president of Norton Corporation is with Ms. Duff.

"Ms. Duff's sizzling hot bod and Mr. Norton's chivalry..."

What the hell is this? Larry's frown was as tight as a drum.

A few pictures were tagged to the headline. It was all taken last night at Della's villa.

What the heck? It was Della?

"Explain yourself, Mr. Norton," Delilah urged.

What is there to explain? It's all an act! Nothing happened between Della and me last night!

"Ms. Young, please listen to me. Firstly, this is fake news. Secondly, I went to Della's because—"

"What! You really went to her place last night?"

Delilah fumed and stronger suspicion brewed.

"It was for work!" Larry was slightly worked up.

Ring-Ring-Ring...

Larry answered the call immediately,

"Larry, where are you?"

Caspian was in a state of nerves.
