Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1696
Finally, Nancy opened the car door and let Jory take a look at her car. He was so capable that he
found the cause of the breakdown after a while.
Jory got up and dusted the dirt off his hands. âThe valve spring is broken. Didnât you notice the
symptoms when you drove it earlier? You're really impressive!â
"Alright, stop making sarcastic remarks! Is there any way to fix it?" Nancy shook him by the
shoulder.
"Yes!" Jory nodded.
"How?" Nancy's eyes sparkled with anticipation.
âWell, the easiest way is to change a car!â He burst out laughing.
Nancy rebuked, âAre you buying a car for me? Stop talking nonsense! Can't you think seriously?â
Jory rolled up his sleeves. âSince you joked with me, why can't I tease you?â Despite being
mischievous, he still stepped forward and helped her to reinstall the broken valve spring in reverse.
He used his fair fingers to install the small valve spring carefully and perfectly.
The ray of sunlight shone on his handsome face, making him look like a charming prince who came
to her rescue.
Nancy subconsciously shifted her gaze from his hand to his face. Actually, he is not that annoying.
Though he keeps making sarcastic remarks and trying to irritate me purposely, he still lends a hand
to me in the end.
Indeed, Nancy was staring at Jory in amazement. It was until he waved his hand before her eyes that
she came to her senses. In the blink of an eye, the serious and mature appearance a moment ago
seemed to be her illusion when the man before her reverted to his mischievous and playful
personality.
âAre you looking at me?â
Nancy immediately denied, âNope! Don't talk nonsense. I'm just looking at the valve spring!â
Jory said with a playful smile, âWhat a lame excuse! I've already installed the valve spring.â
âReally? When? Why didn't I see it?â Nancy suddenly behaved like a little foolish girl.
While pointing at himself, a sly glint came to his eye then, as if he was about to say something
mischievous. âI've installed it long ago! You didn't see it because... you were staring at me!â
What Jory said hit the nail on the head, so Nancy immediately pushed him away. âNo! Don't
overthink. You are so full of yourself!â She then turned the car key and started the car engine.
He leaned forward and put his hand on the car window. âHey! I've helped you. Are you going to
leave without saying a word of appreciation?â
Nancy's car started to move forward. Instead of looking at Jory, she looked straight ahead. With a
smile on her face, she said stubbornly, âYou're helping yourself instead! You can pass through after I
drive off!"
âBut...â Jory watched her car moving forward slowly and shook his head helplessly.
âThank you!â Her sweet and energetic voice was transmitted to his ears.
Well, she isn't that arrogant and unreasonable!
Meanwhile, Caspian was studying the information of the four branches acquired by Alpire Group.
He had been staying late at the office for the past few days. Still, he could not find any clues from
the piles of papers on his desk. In the end, Larry called and informed him that the leakage of
internal information had resulted in the disclosure of their companyâs confidential document.
"I suspect the employee who is leaving for our competitor did this!â Caspian rubbed his chin,
pondering over it.
Larry took a sip of water and replied calmly, âThis is impossible. In terms of salary, our company
offers the highest pay among other competitors.â
âThen, our competitor must have sent over a spy!â Caspian said confidently.
âBut... we don't have any evidence and can't identify any suspect!â Larry responded.
