Chapter 1880 Look Out In Front

Larry then shifted his longing gaze toward Selena and said slowly, “Selena, if you don't mind, you

can come to my place with Lucius.”

Selena wanted nothing more than to jump at that opportunity, but she couldn't bring herself to

leave Delilah behind all by herself.

“No, I think I'm better off staying here. Besides, I've got work.” Selena looked at Delilah as she said

that, much to the disappointment of Larry and Lucius.

“You should go with Mr. Norton, Selena. There's something I need you to do for me in the city

anyway," Delilah spoke up all of a sudden.

Larry's eyes lit up instantly, and he stared at Selena expectantly. Selena took one look at Delilah and

understood the elder woman's intentions right away. Ms. Young rarely sends anyone into the city, so

it must be something important if she’s sending me like this...

"You see these flowers over here? I need you to send them to a girl named Harriet. Just tell her it's

from me, and she'll understand. Remember, you have to hand them over to her in person,” Delilah

said in a very serious tone.

Selena didn’t know who Harriet was nor how important the flowers were, but she wasn't about to

refuse a request from Delilah.

“Mom, make sure you dress well on this trip with Dad or you'll make him look bad!” Lucius gave her

a gentle pat on the back.

Selena froze in disbelief. Did this kid just insult me?

“It doesn’t matter how you look, because I'l still like you all the same!” Larry wrapped his arm tightly

around her shoulder.

She brushed it off and blushed as she took a few steps back, much to Larry's amusement.

After saying goodbye to Delilah and Lucius, the two set off in Larry's car. It was a very quiet drive

with Selena staring out the window in silence while Larry kept his eyes on the road ahead.

With the awkward tension rising in the car, Selena tried her best to calm herself down, only to find

that she was getting a lot more anxious than before. Naturally, Larry had noticed her odd behavior

and pulled over by the side of the road.

"What's the matter, Selena?” he asked while leaning closer toward her.

"Huh? Oh, it's nothing!” Selena let out an awkward chuckle.

Larry continued inching closer toward her, making her so flustered that she found it a little difficult

to breathe.

“Then why were you trying to avoid looking at me?” he asked while blowing gently into her ear.

Selena swallowed nervously at the sight of such a handsome face inches away from hers.

She then pointed at the window and said, “Oh, I uh... I was just admiring the view outside the

window!”

As Larry leaned in even further, Selena closed her eyes and braced herself for the incoming kiss.

Snap!

Selena quickly opened her eyes when she heard a sudden loud noise. She saw that he had helped

buckle her seatbelt which came loose earlier.

"What were you expecting, closing your eyes like that?” Larry asked.

“N-Nothing! Nothing at all!” Selena stammered.

Larry smiled mischievously and started the car once again.

However, he had too much fun teasing her and ended up not paying attention to the road while

driving.

“Hey, Mr. Norton! Mr. Norton!” Selena shouted at him from the side, but he was too distracted to

hear her.

Seeing as they were about to crash into the car in front of them, Selena tugged on Larry's arm in a

state of panic.

"Mr. Norton!"

That snapped Larry out of it. "Huh? What?"

“Look out in front!” Selena pointed frantically at the car in front of them.

Bang!

Both cars were overturned from the impact, and all the passengers were soon lying on the road.

“Joan!” Larry struggled as he reached his hand out toward Selena, but she showed no response

whatsoever.

Eventually, Larry closed his eyes as his consciousness slowly faded away as well.

In the hospital, Delilah was holding Selena’s hand tightly while Lucius stared at both of them

worriedly. Caspian, too, had a frazzled look on his face as he stood beside Larry.
