Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2362

“Hey, young man. Why did you stop eating? Are you missing your wife? Don’t worry. After you are done here, you can go back to her.”

The gossipy old couple teased him and laughed.

Throughout the whole meal, the old man and the old lady chatted without a care in the world. In contrast, Larry’s stomach was in knots the whole time. He was waiting for a chance to ask them about the shareholder, but he didn’t want to be rude and rain on their parade. At that moment, Larry was feeling extremely conflicted.

“What’s the matter? Are you unhappy?” asked the old man.

“Just tell us if something is bothering you. We can help to think of solutions,” said the old lady tenderly.

It was evident that this old couple were optimistic people. They may not look wealthy, but they lived a happy life. Actually, that was sufficient for a family.

“Sir, you see… I wanted to ask you about the man in the photograph,” Larry mumbled.

“Sure, you look like you’re in a hurry. Alright, I’ll be frank with you. The person that you are looking for is actually me. Now tell me, why are you looking for me?” The old man cut straight to the chase.

What on earth is going on? Larry looked at the old man incredulously. The shock in his eyes was apparent.

Am I dreaming? The person that I have been looking for is right in front of me all this while? He put a hand on his thigh and pinched hard.

Ouch! That hurts a lot! So I’m not dreaming? But everything seems too surreal!

“Sir, are you saying that you are the shareholder?” Larry pointed to the man in the photograph, and looked up at the old man.

“Yeah, why? It doesn’t look like me, right? As you can see, I am old now. My skin is all dry and wrinkled.” The old man looked at his significant other, and poked fun at himself.
