Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1709
When Nancy and Joan arrived there, the entrance was not as crowded as the video clip just now, but there were still a few journalists left. Some of them were pestering the security guards while the rest were hanging around, waiting for the people from Norton Corporation to come out.
As they were about to step inside, one of the journalists recognized Joan as Larry’s wife and yelled about her presence. In an instant, all the others whipped their heads around and looked at her like a pack of hungry wolves before rushing towards her and seizing the opportunity to take all the photos they could.
Joan immediately realized the incoming trouble. She shielded her face with her arms and picked up her pace, trying her best to pass through the journalists. But whenever she took a step forward, they would block her way and refused to budge.
Unlike Joan, Nancy could no longer stand the reporters’ questions. I’m not scared of them. I’ve got a black belt in Taekwondo. She then raised her phone in the air and put on a stern face to scare them off. “Get out of our way! I’ll call the police and let you guys be arrested for being a public nuisance.”
As expected, as soon as they heard the word “police,” most of them quickly lowered their microphones and cameras. Meanwhile, when the others saw their fellow journalists had chickened out, they also gave up on interviewing the two ladies. Indeed, instead of risking their careers to get some shocking news, it was better to let the ladies through. Therefore, they glanced at each other before allowing a path for them.
Nancy let out a snort deliberately and walked into the building with Joan, leaving the annoying reporters behind.
Before they even reached the office’s door, they could hear Caspian laughing and cheering inside the room, like a kid who was given candy.
“I bet you’re happy because you know you’ve gone viral on the internet, aren’t you?” Nancy went forward and knocked Caspian on the head.
