Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1932
“What’s going on now? Don’t you know the rules of the trade? What are you trying to prove by disappearing on me?” Larry glared at the man on the floor.
“I’m so sorry, Mr. Norton. I’ve my reasons, so please let me off.” The addict abruptly got on his knees and begged, appearing quite aggrieved.
Larry walked steadily and squatted down in front of the man.
“What reasons could you possibly have?” He lifted the latter’s chin and asked expectantly in a low voice.
“Whatever it is, you should not have played me out!” With a powerful strike, he sent the man hurtling towards the side of the room.
The man touched his bloodied lips and evoked a look of piteousness.
“Mr. Norton, I told you everything about the traffic accident. I was just passing through by chance that day. I really know nothing about the driver who was responsible.”
Larry snorted at his hasty explanation and said, “Hand him over to the cops and let them deal with him.”
“No, please don’t do this, Mr. Norton!” The man panicked.
Larry walked off without looking back. He was not in the habit of giving second chances.
Twice! Gabriella, oh Gabriella. Who the h*ll embolden you?
Thump!
Larry furiously drove a fist into the wall.
“How’s the search going?”
“We’ve looked everywhere, but there’s no sign of that white USB drive he mentioned. Could someone else have taken it, or did Lonnie remember it wrong?” Caspian asked, quite concerned.
“I don’t believe so,” Larry replied.
He knew that Gabriella, too, was on the lookout for the USB drive. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many people actively searching for it apart from Caspian.
“Why don’t we take him along?” the bodyguard asked.
It is not a bad idea, but…
Larry furrowed, somewhat hesitant. I can’t risk his life for the evidence!
“In that case, increase the manpower. You’ve to ensure his safety.” He regarded Caspian intently.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
