Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2846
“I’m flattered, but there’s nothing for us to talk about. I think you should go.” Jake then added, “Oh, one more thing. I should remind you that I’m working on acquiring your company. Just in case you forgot.” He then turned around and headed upstairs.
Larry shot a sullen glare at Jake and was about to go after him.
However, Caspian held him back. “Come on, let’s go, Larry.”
How dare he! A vortex of anger swirled inside Larry. On the other hand, Caspian was relieved that Jake did not give Larry a chance to speak.
“Let me go!” Larry pushed Caspian away in frustration. Perhaps he was mad at the latter for not taking his order.
“Are you mad? How could you confront Jake? He’ll definitely admit that he’s now with Joan,” Jessica, who had just arrived, walked up to him and gave him a stern look. “I told you not to rush it. Why can’t you listen?”
Yet, Larry felt he did nothing wrong. He had always been a steady and righteous man who would not scheme against others.
Jessica heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing that the two men were unhurt during the verbal exchange. She stood up and went deep in thought for a moment. “Please don’t act harshly without us, Larry. Let’s solve this problem together, okay?” She was not pleased with how impulsive he was.
Larry looked at the woman and gave her a confused look. Why do these people keep stopping me? I’m just trying to find my wife!
Since Abelyn had told Jessica about Joan, Dustin was ready to work with them to take Jake down. But Jake seemed to have put his guard up.
“Do you feel bored staying home?” Jake massaged Joan’s shoulders and asked.
Yeah, I’m actually quite bored. Joan nodded as she had not stepped out of the house for quite some time now.
“How about I send you overseas so that you can have some fun?” Jake proposed.
That was good news to Joan. She could not wait to get out of here to take a breather.
Joan left the country the next day while Jake continued to report duty at his office. He needed to stay in the country as he did not want to arouse any unnecessary suspicion.
Meanwhile, over at Larry’s office, Caspian sat on the couch and asked, “So what’s the plan?” Jessica scratched the back of her head and started brainstorming a solution.
They were in a quandary about what to do next since Joan no longer remembered anything about them.
Larry gazed out of the window, looking utterly helpless.
“I think we should find a way to bring Joan back,” Caspian suggested.
Duh. Jessica nudged his arm and gave him a disdainful look. But what exactly can we do? Jake has been keeping Joan away from us!
“I want to go and see her!” Larry said all of a sudden.
Jessica and Caspian turned around and looked at him.
“Don’t worry. I’ll not force her to come back with me,” he added.
They were relieved to hear that. This could be one of the solutions. Joan might fall in love with Larry once again when she sees him. Who knows, right?
Abelyn grinned and said, “I think this might actually work. Dress smart and work your charm, Larry.”
Dustin shot a sullen glare at her and pushed her back to the couch.
What nonsense is she talking about? What? Haven’t you heard of love at first sight? Abelyn knitted her brows and pouted.
At that moment, Jessica stepped in and said firmly, “You can meet Joan, but you must not let your emotions get the better of you.”
