A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 1705

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1705

Hurriedly, she made up an excuse and left the bar, leaving Jory there all by himself. He did a lot of thinking. He thought about the past, the present, and the future. He let his imagination roam and his fantasies fly, and somehow he seemed to understand a little bit more why Dustin had been so desperately searching for that person…

He used to tease Dustin that he got hung up over a woman too easily, that he could never seem to let go of Joan. He often failed to understand why the man would rather reject the many wonderful women around him and continue to waste his efforts on a married woman.

Love does not discriminate when it comes to time or targets, and it makes matches in no particular order. How can you be sure who you’ll fall in love with in the next second? One could not predict when or how it would happen, just like Jory at the moment. He had no idea that he was starting to develop a different kind of feelings for Nancy. He supposed he might have fallen in love with her, but if someone asked him what love was, he could not come up with a clear answer.

“What’s up, Caspian? Are you still unable to contact the director of Alpire Group?”

“I’m afraid not, Boss. I don’t know what’s going on. I’ve searched for all the contact information of almost all the existing corporations, but I can’t find anything on Alpire Group!” Caspian reported. He was extremely anxious, for this was the first time he had ever felt so powerless. His efforts had been in vain.

On the other side, Larry was getting increasingly worried. “What can we do now? We want to meet them, but we can’t even find their contact number. The branches are being acquired one after another. If this goes on, we’ll eventually go out of business!”

Caspian did not respond. The noise on his side was getting louder and louder, so much so that Larry could barely make out his voice. Larry placed his ears closer to the receiver in desperate need to hear Caspian amid the noise, when the latter suddenly yelled, “Get them out of here!”

Before Larry could even ask the man whatever was going on, Caspian beat him to it. “Boss, whatever you do, don’t come to the company. I don’t know how the hell they did it but this place has been swarming with journalists for the past few days, especially today. They all want to come into the building to interview you. Boss, you cannot come here! They’ll have you cornered!”
