Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1764
"Have you talked to Caspian about the divorce?â His tone eased significantly, causing Nancy to sigh
in relief.
âNot yet. But, it's about time. I will find a suitable opportunity to tell him.â
Lighting up a cigarette, Simon exhaled slowly. âIndeed, it will be painful for him. If you are really
going ahead with the divorce, you should let him have a bigger share of the assets.â
When Nancy didn't reply, Simon assumed her silence meant consent. He added, âIf he finds out
about this, he would definitely not agree to the divorce. As for Jory, there would be no escape for
him.â
If it were any other time, Nancy would shrug her father off for worrying unnecessarily. But right
then, she couldn't deny the validity of his concerns. After being married to Caspian for almost two
years, she knew him like the back of her hand. But to a certain extent, she still couldn't get a good
grasp of how he would react.
However, there wasn't any doubt in her that Caspian would make Jory pay. Furthermore, there was
another issue. She wondered how she was going to bring this up to Caspian. She could avoid
mentioning Jory, but how could she lead the conversation toward a divorce?
At Jory's office.
Knock! Knock!
âCome in.â Jory was reading the latest analyst report on Norton Corporation that Dustin brought. He
yelled for the person who knocked to come in.
If he had looked up, he likely would have regretted his action.
Gabriella was dressed provocatively as usual. Although she was modest in front of Joan most of the
time, she was always flamboyant toward Jory.
âGet out,â Jory snapped without hesitation when he saw who it was.
Gabriella smiled. âHow can you ask me to leave right after giving me permission to enter?â
Ignoring her, Jory continued to study the report in his hand. As for Gabriella, she paced around the
office and even touched some of the displays inside.
âI heard the lady say that you're Jory Synder. Despite working for you, I don't even know your
name,â Gabriella sneered.
With his eyes still on the report, Jory replied plainly, âThe deal was that you focus on your work, and
I pay you for it. There's no need for me to tell you my name. It's utterly unnecessary...â
Gabriella sighed. âThere's no way I can beat a businessman like you in a verbal exchange. But, as a
woman, I know how to judge another woman.â
Jory closed the report in his hands with a clap. âIf you're here to talk about the Barrymores or cause
trouble, you should leave.â
"What? Don't you dare admit what you have done? Are you feeling guilty?â Gabriella pressed to her
advantage. âDespite having an affair with a married woman, Mr. Synder, you really are audacious.â
Jory sprang to his feet and grabbed her wrist. Pulling her forcefully, Gabriella lost her balance and
crashed her thigh into the corner of the desk.
âDo you believe that with just a phone call, you will be swarmed by reporters questioning you about
all your misdeeds over the years? Also, don't forget about Landon. He was surrounded by reporters
from every TV station because of you.â
âYou...â Briefly stunned, Gabriella suppressed her anger. âWe are partners, so let's not talk about
such nonsense. All this while, I feel that it isn't normal for you to know everything about me while I
know nothing about you. But now, we are even.â
Jory flung her wrist aside as if he was throwing something filthy away. He felt like his hands would
be tainted if he held them any longer.
âRemember this, going forward, you are not allowed to come here. If you dare defy me in any way, I
will make sure to teach you a lesson with the help of the reporters.â
Gabriella was enraged. âI'm not planning to do anything to you. Instead, you are the one disrupting
Larry's life.â
