Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2147
"What... What's going on?â Jessica probed carefully, afraid of offending the man.
"Did you say Joan was with another man? Which hospital is she at?â Larry asked.
So he doesn't know? Did I guess wrongly then? Jessica twisted her mouth. For a better effect, she
had wanted Larry to discover this on his own. It was a pity that he found out from her...
"Well, I saw it by chance. It looked like she was taking care of a friend. It's been a few days,â Jessica
informed him.
Since the situation was like this, it did not matter whether he knew now or later. Furthermore, that
was the truth.
Joan had herself to blame for spending so much time with Caiden. Furthermore, she had not even
bothered to contact Larry these few days!
"Alright, it's way too early for this. Why don't you try the breakfast I got you?â Jessica quickly lay out
the breakfast on the table.
By now, Larry's expression had turned grave. He tried hard to suppress his emotions, not wanting to
blow his top in front of a guest at work.
So sheâs with another man now? This is ridiculous. I thought I gave her time to settle her issues with
Dustin. Why does she have to hurt me like this over and over again? Larry dug his nails into his
palms, but his anger took over any pain he would have felt.
âCome on, try some! I spent a long time queueing for these.â Jessica tried to feed him a piece of
toast.
However, Larry was too angry to bother with her. With a movement, he swept her hand away
angrily, and the toast fell to the ground.
âGet out!â he bellowed.
The employees outside jumped at the sound, astonished by how angry their boss sounded.
"Hey! What's wrong with you, Larry? Why are you angry at me? Your wife is the one who's spending
time with another man, not me! I'm the one sending you breakfast every day, alright? What's Joan
doing in the meantime? Get your facts right!â Jessica yelled back angrily,
While she was quite happy that Larry was angry at Joan, she had never thought he would lash out at
her.
At that, Larry held his head and tried to calm himself down.
âMs. Zimmer, I'm sorry. I overreacted earlier. I apologize for that,â Larry apologized in a very formal
manner.
âIt's alright. I don't want you to be affected by such a small matter. You have bigger issues to worry
about! You have your family, your company, and all your employees! You have to work hard for
them!â Jessica remarked passionately.
She is right. There's more than marriage in this world. Larry calmed himself down and smiled as he
walked towards Jessica.
âThank you for the breakfast. Let's have some together,â he offered.
To say Jessica was overjoyed would be an understatement. She quickly arranged the food on the
table.
"You've finally come to your senses. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. You need it to
stay energized for the rest of the workday! Try this. This is good,â Jessica encouraged as she picked
up another slice of food for Larry.
Meanwhile, Joan had rushed to the office. She had been panting heavily at the door when she
witnessed that particular scene.
âIs it good?â
"Yes, it is. Thank you for sending breakfast over every day.â
"Well, this is your first time actually eating it, right?â
âHahaha...â
The atmosphere in the office seemed very cordial and friendly. There was not a hint of anger on
Larry's face. In fact, the man looked rather happy. Joan looked at the breakfast in her hand and
slowly walked out.
"Who was that? Why did she come and go?â a newer employee asked.
"Who? Hang on, isn't that Mr. Norton's wife?â a senior employee exclaimed.
Immediately, everyone looked towards the figure that was about to disappear down the hallway.
