Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1460

Ring, ring…

An ear-splitting alarm broke the initial tranquility of the morning. A few seconds later, a long and fair arm shot out from under the covers and turned the alarm off.

Another few seconds passed before Joan rubbed her groggy eyes and started her morning ritual of getting out of bed, washing up, and having breakfast.

Throughout it all, she didn’t make a single sound.

Joan then arrived at the company where she worked and started completing her daily tasks. Ever since she started working at her cousin’s company, she had been very conscientious. While her performance wasn’t exactly impressive, she hadn’t made any mistakes either.

“Good morning. This is Opulent Designs. How may I help you?” Joan answered the call skillfully when the company’s landline rang.

“Good morning, I’m from Norton Corporation…” After having conversed for some time, Joan then hung up the phone in jubilation.

Oh my God, I’ve finally gotten a huge project! I’ve got to work hard. I’ll definitely do my best! she resolved while jumping for joy.

Calming herself down, she then got to her feet and rushed to Norton Corporation. I’ve got to hurry over to Norton Corporation immediately and discuss the details of the project with the person in charge lest anything happens!

Upon arriving at Norton Corporation, Joan took the elevator to the thirty-third floor. Staring at the plaque with the word “office” in front of her, she inhaled deeply before knocking on the door.

“Come in.” A deep and mellow voice drifted out of the room.

The moment Joan heard the voice, a sense of familiarity inexplicably niggled at her. Having no time to mull it over, she pushed open the door and walked in.

“Nice to meet you. I’m Joan Watts from Opulent Designs.” She started introducing herself as soon as she entered the room. However, she didn’t notice that the person who had his head buried in his work at the other side of the table had stilled upon hearing her name.

As she didn’t notice anything amiss, she continued, “I came here to discuss the details of the collaboration this time. May I know…”

All of a sudden, she froze because the person in front of her lifted his head at that precise moment. The face that greeted her was a countenance she had missed greatly and was so familiar to her that it was engraved in her mind.

Larry Norton! He’s a man I’ll never forget until the very day I breathe my last. Everything I experienced with him has long since been imprinted in my mind. I love him, yet I had no choice but to push him away. At the thought of that, she abruptly found it difficult to breathe.
