Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1660

In response, Larry shook his head and said nothing. Every time Larry remained silent, Caspian only

felt more resentful towards Joan. Did he drink a potion instead of the alcohol yesterday? He was

hysterical the previous day, but he seems calm and reserved today.

“Boss, you are abusing your health like that. From as far as I can remember, you have never had this

much alcohol before. Here, let me reheat the hangover soup while you lay down and get some rest

in the meantime,” Caspian suggested.

Despite what Caspian had said, Larry did not move an inch. He was looking out in the distance and

watching the greenery outside the window. Seemingly deep in thought, it was difficult for anyone to

get through to him.

Caspian could only sigh and leave the room with the half-filled bowl of soup. To his surprise, he saw

Nancy hiding behind the door when he went out. Grabbing her arm, he quietly dragged her away.

"How did it go? Did he open up to you? How about his state of emotions?” Nancy shot him with a

flurry of questions.

With a bitter smile, Caspian stated, "He's doing more than okay, and there are no traces of the

heartbreak he had last night. However, he seemed to have lost his spirit. Earlier, he barely

responded to whatever I said.”

This made Nancy worried. “Oh? Is it that serious? I guess he is really devastated by what Joan has

done.”

"He is not just devastated... it broke him. I think he has lost his willpower to even live on.” Abruptly,

Caspian thought of the photos taken, and he hurriedly ran to the study to enter his email address

and search for the sender 'S’" on his laptop.

Curious about what was going on, Nancy followed him into the room and read the email sent by 'S".

Sure enough, the person left nothing but his nickname in it. Caspian was baffled by who it might be

and what to do next, but Nancy stepped in to take the lead. She smacked her forehead and

exclaimed, “I know what to do, the IP! Search for this IP address right now, and we can trace it back

to him!"

"Oh yes, why did I not think of that?” At the speed of light, Caspian’s fingers began dancing across

the keyboard. It did not take him long before he found the IP address of the sender.

However, how could it be this easy for them to track the anonymous sender down? Even though

Caspian dug out the IP address, he realized it was different for every photo sent. How could the

person exist in more than twenty over places?

Nancy and Caspian exchanged glances. Was this how they were going to end their investigation?

Messaging his temples, Caspian closed his laptop.

"Why would someone use these photos to blackmail others? Caspian, do you think that the

perpetrator is doing this for money?” Nancy thought out loud.

Glancing at her, Caspian calmly explained, “No, that's highly unlikely. If he is after money, he will

take these photos to Joan instead because she would likely buy them to protect her marriage with

Boss. Besides, the mastermind can only maximize his self-interest by going to Joan, and not Boss.”

“So he is not motivated by money...” Nancy pinched her chin and continued, “Is he trying to break

up their relationship?”

Rather than replying to her hypothesis directly, Caspian threw her another question, “Nancy, have

you ever considered the possibility that Joan might have really done something to let Boss down?

As you know, his company has been closely monitored by various media outlets, and all its stocks

and related products are heavily affected by Boss’ every move. In the case where they expose the

couple's emotional discord, do you know how much impact it would have on the company’s stock

prices?”

It was one of the rare moments where Nancy did not argue with him. Taking advantage of this

opportunity, Caspian finally revealed the things he had been keeping mum. “Nancy, you insisted

that you are certain about Joan's character and her love for Boss. However, in the face of so many

photos and evidence, have you ever asked yourself if you truly believe in Joan's story? Has it never

crossed your mind that she was only doing it to please Boss?”
