A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2989

Chapter 2989

Joan frowned as she studied Larry in confusion.Is he angry because I had lunch with Jake? Joan jogged over to him and sat beside him with a smile.

"I encountered a minor incident at the mall today, and Jake was there coincidentally, so he helped me out."

At that moment, Larry's phone rang.He instantly picked up his phone from the table and walked toward the balcony to take the call.

"Noted.I'll be there right away."

He hung up his phone, took his coat from the couch, and strode out the room.

"Where are you going?" yelled Joan.

"I'm returning to the company.I won't be back tonight, so don't wait up for me’’ Larry replied loudly.

Did something happen to Norton Corporation? Joan stared at his leaving figure wistfully.

Although she desperately wanted to explain herself, the timing was bad.It's fine.I'll explain to him next time.

"What happened?" Larry asked as he entered the office.

"Larry, they sent this over."

Caspian passed a document to Larry.

"We had previously sent people over to discuss the possibility of collaboration, but they rejected us outright.So why would they approach us all of a sudden?"

Larry asked as he flipped through the document.

"I'm not too sure, but there's something fishy about it."

Caspian was certain that there was a catch somewhere.

There was no way businesses would be offered to your doorstep for no gain.

Larry was of the same mind as him, but he wanted to find out what their motive was.

"Where are they? Have they left?"

Caspian left after a brief discussion with Larry.

Instead of heading home after that, Larry sat on the couch, staring sightlessly at the ceiling of his office.He felt mentally exhausted after the incident with Della and Joan.

Fortunately, Della had changed her ways and stopped provoking Joan.

"Larry, why aren't you going home?"

Jessica let out a yawn as she inquired softly.

"There is something I need to deal with.What's wrong? Why are you still here and not back home? Caspian will be worried again"

Larry reminded her.

"Yeah.I'm not going back.I've informed Caspian about it.I have something that I need to work on tomorrow, so it's more convenient for me to make do with a night at the office.I didn't expect you to be here as well’ Jessica assured.

I know for sure that this isn't her first time staying in the office for the night, and it wouldn't be her last.

However, Larry felt gratified at heart that although Jessica seemed stubborn at times, she could match him for his seriousness when the time called for it.
