A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2808

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2808

A Loyal Man

Jessica was shocked to the core with a pair of widened eyes and a blank face. Had Caspian not shown up in time and saved her, she might have been injured by Larry.

“When I got there, she’s disappeared.” Jessica felt defeated as a sense of helplessness filled her eyes.

Larry could not handle the news well. He stumbled onto the sofa, downcast.

At that moment, Jessica regretted telling Larry about it. She felt sorry for disappointing him after giving him a glimpse of hope.

“Don’t you worry, Larry, as long as Joan is still alive, I’ll find her at all cost!” Jessica declared confidently.

Knowing that Larry could not listen to a word she said, Caspian quickly gestured to Jessica, signaling her to leave the room. Subsequently, he sat beside Larry to console him.

Life is full of ups and downs. With glistening eyes, she cast a gaze at the two individuals in the office. Joan, are you still alive? Where are you right now?

Feeling desolate and bereft, she lifted her head and shut her eyes.

Resting his chin on his right hand, Larry spaced out while staring out of the window.

“Larry, I’m certain that Jessica will look for her,” Caspian reassured him. He knew very well that Larry became very sensitive each time he heard Joan’s name.

Larry bowed his head as tears welled up in his eyes.

“Oh dear, what’s going on? Everything in this room feels so depressing,” Della walked closer as she commented.

Caspian felt irritated at the sight of Della. He was aware of her longing for Larry and suspected her of orchestrating the incident by the beach.

In fact, both Larry and Caspian had the same hunch that Della was the mastermind behind all these, just that they did not have solid evidence to confront her.

“What are you doing here?” Caspian questioned.
