Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2271
“All of you, knuckle down! Don’t waste time on the irrelevant party.” Out of a sudden, a department leader announced loudly from afar.
“Of course! Why would we be affected by some jerk?”
“Absolutely! Someone is way out of his place, but not us.”
Everyone there chimed in one after another, obviously satirizing Larry.
At that instant, Larry realized why they treated him in such a manner. They must have read the news about my scandal. Damn! Don’t they know that I am a victim as well?
“Actually… Let me explain things to you all. About what you saw on the news, it was merely an accident…” Larry started to defend himself.
“Yeah, right. When you can’t find Joan, it naturally becomes an accident.”
“Such a convenient accident, isn’t it? Sounds to me more like a lousy excuse.”
Those staffs kept chattering away.
What excuse? Nothing happened between Jessica and me. I am innocent! In the end, Larry could only sigh at this helpless situation.
Undoubtedly every single of them sided with Joan, but he would not have expected to cast her a cold glance anything different than that.
Nonetheless, shouldn’t true friends try to help Joan fix her marriage? What kind of friends are these people?
“Why did you show up around here? Is there anything you need?” At the instant, Dustin’s voice startled Larry from behind.
Finally! He’s here! The latter cast him a cold furious glance.
“Where did you hide Joan?”
Who does he think he is to accuse me like this? He’s the one who didn’t appreciate her in the first place. Doesn’t he have any shame? Dustin smiled at him frigidly.
“First of all, I did not hide her anywhere. Secondly, shouldn’t you know where your own wife is?” Dustin responded indifferently.
He must be feeling like a cat on hot bricks right now. That’s what I want. I want him to panic. I want him to be unable to find her forever!
