A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 1463

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1463

“Are you deaf? If you have a problem with it, put down the contract and get lost!” Larry roared, livid. Hah! This woman is still as stupid as ever!

“Yes, yes, I understood. Goodbye, Mr. Norton,” Joan hastily replied as she trembled in terror. “Please excuse me, Mr. Norton. I look forward to working with you.”

Without waiting for him to answer, she bolted out of the office like the hounds of hell were nipping at her heels.

“This is just the first step. I want to get back everything you owe me. I look forward to working with you as well,” Larry mumbled as he watched her leave. Nevertheless, even he himself didn’t realize that his attitude had long since changed.

“Phew! I’m finally out of there!” Joan breathed in deeply, for every single second she was in his office was torture to her.

But at the thought of her conversation with him earlier, her lips that had just curved upward turned down again.

Such a massive amount of work will require at least two people to complete in a week, so if I’m doing it alone…

Despite her misgivings, she could only suffer in silence. Without fretting over it anymore, she instantly went back to the office and started on her insane workload.

Every day, she worked overtime until late at night. Then, she woke up early the next morning and rushed back to the office. Without her having realized it, three days had passed.

Throughout the three days, she merely buried herself in work. While it was tiring, it was a blessing for her since she could temporarily put the matter of Larry at the back of her mind.

While Joan was swamped with work, Larry was conversely very much agitated. Not all company matters required his personal attention, and he could also easily resolve matters involving major decision-making with his outstanding capabilities, so he had quite some time on his hands.

Whenever he was , Joan’s image always appeared in his mind. Ever since she left, he decided to close his heart off to everyone. After all, it was only when one felt nothing that one wouldn’t get hurt.

Tons of beautiful women flocked to him due to his imminent background and handsome outlook, yet he wasn’t at all interested in any of them. Even when it came to Gabriella, it was only because of his business dealings with the Ward family and her insistent demand to work at Norton Corporation did he agree to take her in.
