Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2839

After what seemed an eternity, she finally fell asleep. When she woke up the next day with the intention of asking Jake about Larry, she realized he had already left the villa. Why is he evading this matter? Sitting on the sofa, Joan appeared very concerned.

Joan losing her memory was doubtlessly good news to Della. And what excited her, even more, was that Jake had abducted Joan. Therefore, even if Larry was eager to replace that woman, it would definitely take him a considerable amount of time.

"I want to see Larry!" Della yelled at the lobby with an overbearing tone.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Duff. Mr. Norton has specified earlier that those without an appointment shall not be allowed to enter," the receptionist stopped her and said.

Damn it, Larry! You actually came up with such a lousy trick against me? You're taking me too lightly! Do you really think you can stop me with this little skit? The woman snorted and straightened her clothes, glancing around as if she was waiting for something.

"Look, there's someone sneaking in over there!" She pointed at a man some distance away.

The receptionist turned around immediately upon hearing that, ready to call the security over the landline. Just as she turned around, Della ran in in a trice.

"Hey, Ms. Duff! You can't go in!" The receptionist's tone was extremely remorseful.

Messing with me? You have a long way to go! Della put her hands together and walked into Larry's office.

"So, it seems you're quite clever, aren't you?" In the corridor, Caspian looked at her contemptibly and uttered lowly.

"Better than you, at least!" With that, Della walked past him.

"You!" Rooted to the spot, Caspian was infuriated.

Leaning back on the sofa in his office, Larry was taking a rest with his eyes closed; he was totally unaware of Della's arrival. The woman tiptoed over and hunkered down beside him, closely observing the face that got her daydreaming. Her lips curled into a gratified curve unwittingly.

Although he disliked her and even hated her sometimes, for some reason, her affection toward him wouldn't seem to diminish.

However, she wasn't aware that the feeling she had about Larry was not so much love as it was possessiveness.

Plausibly noticing something amiss, the man opened his eyes slowly while massaging his temples, trying to clear his hazy mind. "What are you doing here?" with displeasure in his tone, he asked, getting up and pacing toward the desk.

"Larry, do you think I won't be able to come in just because you ordered your subordinates to stop me?" Della asked complacently.

Hmph! In fact, the man had never really expected that Della would be subjugated by the staff in his company. Hence, he wasn't surprised at all. "What's the matter?" Larry yawned and asked.

Della sat on the sofa with her legs crossed, looking very relaxed as she said, "My Dad said to re-establish the cooperation with you." Larry immediately shifted his gaze toward her with a cautious expression on his face. Is she trying to stir up some trouble again?

"I appreciate your dad's kindness. Please help me relay my message to him. Norton Corporation is doing very well at the moment."

What does he mean by that? Is he declining the offer? Della looked at him curiously, her eyes filled with bewilderment. Many know that there are numerous organizations and people who yearn to collaborate with our family, and yet, Larry is outright turning down our offer!

Della squeezed her fingers tightly. With much indignation and agitation, she started, "Larry, you were pleased to cooperate with us previously, weren't you?"

That was in the past.

He used to think that the woman before him would share his weal and woe and go through thick and thin with him. Nevertheless, she had betrayed him heartlessly. There's nothing that will always stay the same in this world. The human heart is the most fickle of all.

"Della, I truly appreciate the goodwill extended, but Norton Corporation has undergone restructuring, and it really isn't compatible to collaborate with your company. I'm sorry about that."

He was very straightforward, leaving no room for discussion. It was done intentionally he didn't want to get another taste of being sold out by this woman.
