Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2268
“Alright. Just continue to perform well. Maybe then I will consider helping you,” Larry joked.
Jessica refused to give in. “Who knows. I might not even need your help by then.”
The man smirked as he gave a resigned shrug. She is still so naive. She won’t come back unless she meets a dead end. Fine. I will just let her try on her own, or else she would never know the cruel reality in the business world.
“So, when do you plan to start?” Larry then asked casually.
“I will start making some calls firsthand tomorrow,” Jessica replied honestly.
She sure is efficient! She truly deserves to be the daughter of the Zimmer family. Larry’s lips curled into a contented yet awkward smile upon hearing her contented smile.
However, little did they both knew what bad luck was awaiting ahead of her enthusiastic plan.
“Since you don’t need any of my help, I will leave. Call me if you need me.” Upon saying that, Jessica walked out of the office.
She intended to ask Joan out as she felt the urge to explain the truth, but it seemed unnecessary at the moment.
Jessica, you are indeed a true friend! Larry displayed a contented smile on his face, but it disappeared seconds later as he thought about his dear wife again.
Joan, we have been through so many ups and downs in life together, yet you lost your trust for me over an unintended kiss…
During that moment, the man’s figure looked utterly decadent and lonely.
The next morning, Dustin was still worrying about Joan; hence he paid another visit. That was when Joan told him about her decision to move out.
“Joan, have you thought it through?” Never had Dustin expected that she would make such a drastic decision.
