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.

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.
