A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 2866

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2866

With a forceful shove, Jake sent the receptionist sprawling to the corner. Blood trickled down the ends of his lips.

Larry, let’s see how you’re going to talk your way out of this! Jake rolled up his sleeve and made his way up the building.

Eventually, he came to Larry’s office and let himself in. “Oh, I see that Mr. Norton is as busy as usual. How dedicated!”

Wary of his presence, Della was rather alert and rose defensively from the sofa. She ran to him and maintained a stern glare, a cold glint flashing in her eyes. He must have come with ill intentions!

Damn b*tch! How long has it been? I see you’re still sickeningly loyal to Larry, huh! Jake glanced at her with a look of pure disdain.

“What are you doing here?” Larry asked him directly without even looking up to greet his visitor.

Are you playing dumb? You’ve arranged for two groups of people to sabotage my villa, taking Joan away in the process. My, you’ve really gone to great lengths with that plan of yours! Jake looked around, his gaze flashing menacingly as he rubbed his hands together.

“You seem pretty busy, Mr. Norton. I wonder, how do you plan to compensate for the injuries you have incurred on my housemaid?” Jake hinted at him in a cynical tone.

Hmm? Is he trying to trick me into confession? Larry lifted his head to look at the man standing not too far away from him, a mischievous glint flashing in his eyes.

Well then, I have all the time in the world. How about a little mind game?

“Pardon me, I have no idea what you’re talking about. Firstly, I don’t know where your villa is. Secondly, I certainly didn’t send anyone to beat up your housemaid,” Larry answered flatly.

I doubt Joan would’ve arrived at Jake’s villa by now. So, if my deductions are correct, Jake shouldn’t have known that I’ve gone to fetch Joan, which means all that stuff he said just now was nothing but a test. Larry eyed him scornfully, then proceeded to type away on the keyboard.

What a shameless man! He’s obviously the one behind it, but he refuses to admit what he’s done! Larry, you certainly know no shame!
