Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1778
Suddenly, Joan’s phone rang. When she saw that it was Dustin calling, she was shocked.
Over the last few days, she had lost count of the number of times she tried to call him. Right then, he was finally calling her back.
“Hello? Joan, did you call me?” Dustin’s voice sounded languid.
“That’s right, I called you many times but you didn’t answer. Where are you now?” Joan asked anxiously.
Now that they finally got in touch with Dustin, it was indeed a great news to both Larry and Joan. He definitely knows something about Alpire Group’s takeover of Norton Corporation.
“I’m overseas. Why? I’ve been feeling exhausted for a while now, so I decided to leave the country.”
Overseas? Why would he suddenly go overseas? Joan looked at Larry in disbelief.
“When are you coming back? I need to talk to you.” Joan waited in anticipation for Dustin’s answer.
“Sure, I’ll be back tomorrow.” After making a little small talk, both of them ended the call.
From Dustin’s tone, Joan could sense that he had no idea what was going on. However, he is very close to Jory and is deeply involved in Alpire Group.
If it’s not Dustin nor Jory, who else can it be? Joan couldn’t think of anyone else.
“Don’t worry. The truth will be revealed once he is back. As long as I’m here, the company will be fine.” Larry helped Joan massaged her temple.
Suddenly, he felt guilty as she had to share his burden of worrying about the company.
“Why do you say that, Larry? Your troubles are also mine. Didn’t we say so before? No matter what happens, we will face them together.”
