    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1539


    After saying that, Carl hung up, leaving Gabrie with her chaotic thoughts.


    Those three days were the most arduous days in Gabrie’s life.


    Throughout the three days, not only did she consider Carl’s proposition carefully, but she also paid


    close attention to the changes in the Ward family’s financial situation.


    On the fourth day, the financial capability of the Ward family had already fallen to its lowest point in


    history.


    Although Landon was doing his best to persevere, she couldn’t see the slightest ray of hope.


    If this continues, bankruptcy is only a matter of time.


    Recalling Carl’s words, her defenses slowly copsed.


    She really couldn’t think of a better way to save the Ward family and herself. The only method was the


    one he proposed.


    Three days passed in the blink of an eye. While she was still struggling inwardly, she was gradually


    inclined toward Carl’s proposition.


    In the end, she decided to seek Carl out.


    No matter what, I can just go and see what he says. If I don’t agree, I can just turn around and leave


    without getting myself involved in the mess.


    As that thought urred to her, she finally stopped hesitating and drove to the location he sent her.


    In other words, it was the aforementioned restaurant.


    Carl wore an expectant smile on his face as though having known that Gabrie would definitelye.


    “You’re here, Gabrie? What would you like to eat?” he inquired gentlemanly.


    “I’ve got no appetite,” Gabrie answered bluntly.


    All the while, her eyes were fixed intently on him.


    “Oh well, I’ll just eat by myself, then.


    As Carl said that, he picked up the fork and knife on the table before eating his steak unhurriedly.


    Gabrie waited for him to speak, for it was only when he initiated the conversation would she be able


    to take the reins. In that case, she could nonchntly extricate herself from the coboration and leave.


    However, Carl said nothing. Instead, he acted as though the steak in front of him was the sum of his


    world at that very moment.


    Both of them were waiting for the other to speak, so the atmosphere fell silent in a sh.


    All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    At longst, it was Gabrie who snapped and broke the silence.


    “Tell me about your n.”


    She didn’t want to waste time with him here, so she went straight to the chase.


    At that, Carl smirked triumphantly.


    “Patience, Gabrie. Haste makes waste. I know you’re very eager to have our coboration go


    smoothly, but patience is a virtue.”


    The moment his words fell, Gabrie was consigned to a passive position.


    Ugh! What a scoundrel! Gabrie cursed inwardly. Then, she dered, “I think you’ve made a mistake


    here, Mr. Johnson. I’m not here to coborate with you. I’m only here to listen to the so-called n you


    asked me here to discuss.”


    Gabrie spoke coldly without a hint of expression on her face.


    “There’s no rush about the n. It’s been a long time since west met, so let’s have a chat first,” Carl


    murmured with a smile.


    But on a closer look, one would see that the smile carried a hint of smugness for having cornered his


    prey.


    “We haven’t seen each other in a long time, so did you miss me, Gabrie? I missed you like crazy,”


    Carl drawled, grinning.


    His words had repulsion invading Gabrie. Sick of being kept hanging, she issued an ultimatum and


    hissed, “If you’re not going to talk business, I’m leaving.”


    “Alright, then, Gabrie. Since you’re in such a hurry, let’s talk about the n first,” Carl concurred


    In the next moment, he had even schooled his expression and put his smile away.


    Without waiting for her to start, he began speaking. “I’ll tell you about the general n first. It’s actually


    very simple. Larry Norton and Joan Watts are currently on a vacation. However, there have always


    been tons of work to be done at Norton Corporation, so he can’t be away for too long. Hence, he’ll


    probably return in these few days to handle business. What we need to do is to n for something to


    happen during their vacation so that they can’t make it back to Marsingfill,” he snarled resentfully.


    “Of course, we’re not doing this ourselves,” he added. Seemingly having anticipated her question, he


    continued, “I’ve already contacted a few assassins. They’re all desperadoes whose lives are always in


    the bnce as they act as assassins. They don’t care who’s hiring their services, asking only for


    money. So, we don’t need to reveal our identities. As long we pay a certain amount, they will do their


    jobs.”
