Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2620

I Can Wait

Seeing this, Caspian walked into Larry's office to ask what was going on.

“Larry, why did she come over?”

“She suggested we work together.”

“And?”

“I turned her down.”

Caspian heaved a helpless sigh.

They knew a long time ago that Abelyn was the one behind what happened at the photography

studio, but none of them said anything to Abelyn out of courtesy. Besides, Joan did not want to

pursue the matter any further.

Just as the two men fell into silence thinking about the problematic character, someone came in

again.

“Larry,” Joan called out as she walked in.

Joan? Larry sprang on his feet when he heard her voice.

“I brought you dessert. I made it myself.” Joan put a container on his table, but the meal box Della

brought caught her attention.

Larry was not someone who liked spending time going out and buy food because he thought it was

a waste of time. It was obvious that someone had prepared him breakfast.

From how the meal was prepared, Joan guessed it must be made by a woman. A shade of

disappointment covered her eyes.

"What brings you here? You're not busy today?” Larry came over and hugged her.

“Yeah. I don't have anything in the morning, so I came over.”

“Is everything going on well on your side?”

“Yeah. What about you?”

“Everything's fine here at the company too.”

Larry's tightened his embrace around her, enjoying the short moment they shared

“I should get going already,” Joan said gently, snuggling in his arms.

Larry glanced at his watch and let her go. He planted a kiss on her forehead before looking at her

lovingly.

Joan looked into his eyes and cupped his face in her hands. “Should we have dinner at home

tonight?”

"Sure

Outside Larry's office, everyone was looking at the blissful couple adoringly.

“Larry's so handsome!”

"Gosh, what a beautiful couple.”

"How I envy them.”

A few female employees commented as they watched Joan and Larry. They had completely

forgotten about work.

Speaking of work, the restructuring Larry proposed did not get through the board of directors, yet

their disapproval did not make Larry disheartened.

"What should we do next?” Caspian asked after finding out about it.

Good question. We can't rush this through, so we can only do one thing at a time. Larry shook his

head and sighed.

He knew the directors would disagree, but he did not know there was actually someone else behind

this.

“Don't you think it's weird, Larry? Why did all of them turn down your proposal? Even those who

used to support you have rejected your idea this time,” Caspian pointed out as he thought things

through.

Larry put down the document folder in his hands and squinted his eyes. He lit up a cigarette as the

expression on his face hardened.

This is what I'm thinking about too. He puffed out a mouthful of smoke and lifted his exasperated

gaze toward the sky outside the window.

“Do you want me to check it out?” Caspian asked.

"Yes, please do.” Larry resumed work right after he assigned the task to Caspian.

What a workaholic! Caspian took a final look at him and set to work.

Not long after he was gone, Della came again. “Is anything bothering you?”

“Nothing of importance.”

Why do you have to lie to me? I can tell with just one glance something is bugging you. Della took

up a magazine and sat on the couch begrudgingly.

"What are you doing?” Larry asked.

“I wanted to talk about the recent project. As you already know, I'm not entirely updated about

what's going on in the country.”

“But I need to work on something else now.”

“I can wait.” Yes, Della was willing to wait for him, be it for work or for his heart.
