Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2296

Ah, it looks like he’s in a bad mood! Jessica sauntered over and rested her head on his desk, staring at him intently until he grew irritated.

“Say, Ms. Zimmer, why are you here now? If you need something, just spit it out. I’m very busy, okay?” Larry growled after taking a deep breath to suppress the emotions brewing within him.

Well, he’s clearly unhappy about something. Why must he bottle it up? Just share it with the class. Thus, Jessica merely looked at him without saying anything.

“Jessica Zimmer!”

“Say, Mr. Norton, you’re morose yet you’re not telling anyone the reason. What if you continue to bottle it up and explode?” Jessica drawled.

All at once, Larry saw red.

I’m already in a foul mood, yet she’s actually provoking me! Did this woman come here to pick fault with me? He slammed the pen in his hand onto the table, his gaze cold and hard.

“All right, just tell me if you’ve got a problem, and we’ll think of a solution together. It’s better than you being all grumpy alone. Besides, sulking alone can’t resolve any problems,” Jessica chided.

Argh! I’m not sulking! I’m obviously pissed off now, okay?

“I’ve already asked Caspian to resolve it, so you need not be concerned.” Larry barked.

“But you’re still in a bad mood, no? Is it because of Joan Watts?” Jessica probed.

After all, everyone knows that no one save Joan Watts is capable of affecting his mood. But hasn’t she gone abroad for a trip? So, how did she get on his bad side?

Larry gazed at the lighthouse outside the window with narrowed eyes for a long moment, not saying a word.

“Fine. Since you don’t want to tell me, I’ll drop it. Also, stop ordering Caspian around because he still has to handle things for me. Remember you’re the one who promised to assign him to me as my assistant,” Jessica asserted bluntly while dusting her hands.

Ah, so she came because of Caspian! At that, Larry breathed a sigh of relief and a flicker of tenderness flashed across his eyes.
