Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2107
Based on the situation now, the possibility of a successful deal has increased. Larry smiled in satisfaction and walked out of the meeting room.
“Mr. Norton, is everything settled?” his assistant asked, trailing behind him.
“Yes. Book the tickets immediately and go back as soon as possible,” Larry ordered.
In response, the assistant gazed at him with admiration and took out her tablet to book their tickets.
It had been a few days since Larry had last seen Joan, Lucius, and Delilah. I wonder how they are doing? And how did the field trip go? At that thought, he dialed Joan’s number.
Meanwhile, Joan was cooking in the kitchen, so she did not hear her phone ringing in the living room.
As for Delilah, she was sitting on her bed, reading a floriculture magazine attentively. Therefore, no one heard Larry’s call.
Then, a nurse came into her room and smiled. “Hi, Ms. Young. How are you?”
“I’m feeling fine. I would like to know when the surgery would be conducted?” Delilah whispered, looking at Joan, who was still busy in the kitchen.
“The doctor said it’d be on next Wednesday. It’s time for you to make preparation, Ms. Young. But rest assured, this time, the surgery will be performed by a renowned surgeon invited by Dr. Silverman. He is specially invited from abroad to handle your surgery.”
Unbeknown to Delilah, Joan overheard their conversation, but she pretended to be busy preparing their meal.
“It smells so good, Joan. Your cooking is awesome. Ms. Young, I’m so happy for you. Besides the delicious food, you also have a VIP room in our hospital, which basically looks like a presidential suite.”
“You always have a kind word to say. Thank you.” Ms. Young smiled.
The next day, Larry returned to the village. As soon as he entered the house, Lucius threw himself into his arms and pouted. “Dad, you’re finally back! I miss you so much. Where have you been? Mom and I really miss you.”
“Lucius, it’s all my fault. Something came up on that day, so I had to go abroad to settle the issue. Besides, my phone was off at that time, so I didn’t receive any calls. I’m sorry I couldn’t make it to your field trip,” Larry apologized, a trace of guilt gleaming in his eyes.
“It’s okay, as long as you’re back safely.” Lucius hugged him tightly.
