Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2795
A Pursuit
Larry’s voice was calm and devoid of any warmth.
For some reason, the man shuddered involuntarily upon hearing Larry’s words. How can he still be so arrogant? What can the two of them even do?
The man straightened his clothes, trying to calm himself.
With a wave of his hand, he ordered, “Take her away!” Then, he turned to leave.
“You probably don’t know this, but Della’s father has always been against her underhanded actions,” Larry said suddenly, causing the man to halt in his stride.
Della and her father were world-renowned figures. Although her father kept a relatively lower profile than her, he was labeled by the public as a person of good moral standing and reputation.
Could this guy be close to Della’s father? The man turned around to look at Larry with a hint of doubt entering his eyes. Who the hell is Larry Norton?
And why is Caspian willingly doing his bidding?
“I’ll give you two minutes to think about it. If you still don’t let her go after that, be prepared to face the consequences.” Larry’s emanated a frightening aura.
Unbeknownst to him, Larry’s men already had the place surrounded and were ready to ambush at any second.
The man looked up at the sky, as though merely waiting for two minutes to pass.
Right then, a young man brought over a phone to him. “Boss, your phone is ringing.”
“How’s everything going?” Della’s voice drifted over the line.
“Not very good,” the man replied.
“Get rid of her if it’s necessary!”
The man froze momentarily. She wants me to kill her? There was no way he would do that. “Ms. Duff, you didn’t mention anything about this before! You only said you wanted me to bring her to you!”
He slowly backed away and warned, “Don’t come any closer!” The knife resting on Joan’s neck effectively stopped Larry and Caspian from moving any further, afraid that one misstep would end her life.
“I told you, as long as you let her go, I’ll pretend none of this happened.” Larry kept trying to persuade the man.
Who is he trying to bluff? In this world, no one can be trusted. The man clutched Joan tightly, as if afraid she was going to run away, but at that moment, she was so weak her face was completely drained of color.
“Clear a path. Now!”
Larry immediately motioned at his men.
“Larry, are you sure about this? Are you really going to let him leave?” Caspian asked worriedly.
Larry did not answer as he gazed fixatedly at the man who was forcefully dragging Joan away. After he shoved her into a car, a pursuit began.
More than a dozen black vehicles sped along the road. Noticing the cars hot on his heels, the man panicked. “Call Norton and tell him to stop!”
