Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1509
Carl remained quiet as he tried to weigh the pros and cons of doing it.
Even though Larry has a considerable influence in Marsingfill, if I were to pursue Joan as an admirer,
he can’t really do anything to me, right?
Carl rationalized it within himself and decided to give it a go.
You can’t really get what you want without sacrifices. Besides, it’s not really possible to win Gabrie’s
heart without taking any risks. In that case, I’d better agree to it promptly to leave a more favorable
impression on Gabrie.
“Alright, I’ll do it for you! Don’t worry, Gabrie. I’ll get it done perfectly, and I won’t disappoint you,” Carl
assured her in a confident manner.
“Well, it looks like I wasn’t wrong about you, Carl. I’m starting to take a liking to you,” In order to
motivate Carl to work for her, Gabrie started showering him withpliments.
“Of course, Gabrie. You’ll discover more of my strengths in the future,” Carl replied rather smugly as
he looked at her.
Just you wait. I’ll be able to do whatever I want with you once I get hold of you.
If you get it done, Larry would never ever let you off the hook, and I’ll be able to myself from your
harassment. This is simply killing two birds with one stone.
In that instant, the two of them, both with a secret agenda on their minds,ughed aloud in unison.
“Gabrie,e on. The gathering is going to start soon. Let’s go over there.”
Carl took the opportunity to reach out and hold Gabrie’s hand. Let’s see what other excuse you can
mean you have not even a single trace of sincerity.
Carl wascent as he thought about that.
As Gabrie was about to fume when she felt her hand being grasped, she was reminded of her
agreement with Carl. Turning against him now isn’t sensible.
Suppressing the overwhelming disgust within her, she let Carl hold her hand and lead her forward.
When the gathering started, Carl sat next to Gabrie, making an impression that he was very close to
her. That made all the other men present extremely envious of him.
Throughout that period, Carl tried to take advantage of Gabrie by pretending to touch her
unintentionally, but every time he did that, Gabrie was able to dodge him in time.
Eventually, Gabrie made an excuse to discuss something personal with the otherdies and left
directly, which upset Carl.
Staring at Gabrie’s attractive figure, Carl couldn’t help licking his lips. You’ll be my ything
sooner orter.
Suppressing his desire, Carl started deliberating about how he should approach Joan and fulfill
Gabrie’s request.
One day, Joan was ready to go home after work. All this time, Larry had always wanted to pick her up
from work.
Nevertheless, Joan insisted on going home on her own in a cab. Since she was only an ordinary
member of thepany staff, she refused to receive any privileged treatment which would distance
herself from her colleagues.
After some consideration, Larry thought that she was right. Besides, thepany where Joan worked
wasn’t very far away from the vi. It was a journey of at most ten minutes. Hence, Larry allowed her to
travel home in a cab.
Taking her bag, Joan was ready to leave as it was gettingte, and she was afraid that Larry would
worry about her. Therefore, she rushed outside thepany, and just as she was about to take a turn
at the entrance, she bumped into someone.
“Ouch!”
The forceful collision sent Joan falling on her hip. Covering her forehead, Joan was in a daze for quite a
long while.
“Miss, are you alright?”
The other person was also hit hard. But as a man, he reacted more quickly than Joan. Stepping

forward in a polite manner, he was ready to help Joan up.
“It’s fine. I’ll get up on my own,” Joan rejected his offer as she came back to her senses.
Larry had been reminding Joan to avoid contact with strangers, and she always kept that in mind.
The man was a little bashful as he smiled apologetically. “I’m really sorry. I was in a hurry to discuss
something with yourpany, so I didn’t really notice you. It was my fault.”
“It’s okay.”
Apparently, he didn’t do it on purpose, so Joan didn’t really mind. “Oh, it’s past working hours now. Why
don’t youe again to ourpany tomorrow?”
