Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2207
“Yes, I’m listening,” replied Larry slowly.
He had been listening without registering the words.
“Alright. I’ll go on, then.”
Right then, Jessica stepped into the office and interjected, “Stop babbling nonsense. Men should focus on their careers before their families. Larry can get another wife, no problem. He can take his pick out of many girls out there, including me.”
Ugh, another annoying person! Larry took a deep breath and carried on with his work.
“Hey, Ms. Zimmer. It’s late. Why are you here?” Caspian spun on his heels and greeted her.
“Oh, I’m here to have dinner with Mr. Norton and talk about our collaboration,” was her reply.
Seriously? Back then, when Norton Corporation wanted to partner up with them, their representative refused to show up. Why is she here to discuss a partnership all of a sudden?
Is this another trap? Larry studied her warily.
“Ms. Zimmer, it’s getting late, so we should talk about this tomorrow,” he responded cautiously.
Jessica glanced at him and stalked over arrogantly.
She insisted on discussing with him that night, no matter if he liked it or not.
“Why? Are you refusing to work with us?” she retorted.
Larry was firm. “I have something on at home.”
There was no way he would stay to discuss a partnership with her as he had already found a suitable manufacturing company. Thus, there was no need to keep in touch with the Zimmer family.
Larry gave them plenty of time to consider, but they didn’t even bother to give him a reply. Now, even if they were reaching out to him, he couldn’t be bothered to give a d*mn.
