For some inexplicable reason, Joan didn’t dare look Larry in the eye.

“Dustin?” Larry scoffed with his eyes filled with contempt. He continued to pressure Joan until she had
her back against the wall. “He really hasn’t given up, has he.”
Joan looked at Larry fearfully, his anger visibly reaching its limit. His voice carried with it a hellish tone.
“Do you know how preposterous it sounds when Dustin uses the word ‘friends’?”
“Why must you insist on seeing him in such a negative light?” Joan retorted as she gently shoved him
away.
When Larry saw that she pushed him on ount of Dustin instead of apologizing, he fell into a jealous
rage and blocked her escape with his arms.
“Are you defending him? Are you regretting that you didn’t leave with him one year ago? And now that
he is back, you can’t help but want to leave with him?” Larry crumpled the note in his hand and hurled it
forcefully against the wall, causing it to ricochet away.
Joan couldn’t believe what Larry had used her of. She assumed after what they had been through,
both of them would be more mature and trusting of each other. However, she didn’t expect their
trust to have broken down so easily.
Briefly stunned, she asked him, “Larry, don’t you trust me? Does this mean you’re doubting me?”
“Yes!” Larry was never one to hide his words. “Don’t think that I’m not aware of the rumors swirling
around. Putting aside the fact I don’t believe in you, what about you? What have you done for me?”
Larry’s thundering voice shook Joan to her core. Despite the innumerable things she wanted to say,
she calmed herself down when she saw how hysterical Larry had be.
“There’s nothing for me to exin. If you don’t believe me, just forget it. Larry, let go of me. Both of us
need to calm down.”
When Larry retracted his arms that were in her way, Joan stormed into the study without even looking
back. When he saw her dispassionate silhouette, he was overwhelmed with disappointment.
Calm down? Joan, how do you expect me to calm down?
Leaning her back against the closed doors, tears streamed down Joan’s cheeks.
The disappointment she felt was no different from the time when she saw him making out with
Gabrie while delivering a contract to his office.
“Why, Larry? Am I a shameless traitor not worthy of your trust to you?”
Despite trying desperately to hold back her tears, they pitter-pattered continuously onto the floor.
“Mr. Norton, here is this quarter’s financial report. Please see if there are any changes that need to be
made…”
“Get out! Just get out!” With a shove of his hand, the documents the secretary brought were swept onto
the ground, causing a bunch of papers to be strewn all over.
With sweat breaking out on her forehead, the secretary quickly gathered the documents from the floor.
Although Larry had a bad temper, he had never vented on his subordinates to such an extent. Having
been on the receiving end of his outburst, his secretary was so fearful that she didn’t dare look up.
Ignoring the order of the papers, she quickly grabbed all of them and stuffed them back into the file.
Given how angry he was, everything Larry saw seemed to irritate him. Filled with rage, he was further
annoyed by the pile of reports on his table that required his approval. Grabbing a cup from the corner of
his desk, he then smashed it onto the ground forcefully.
Upon impact, the drink sttered all over, just like a turbulent wave on a calm ocean surface.
Kneeling by the ground to pick up the report, the secretary was shaken by what had happened.
Immediately, she stood up and rushed for the door. Just when she was about to exit, she bumped right
into someoneing in.
When she saw who it was, she nodded respectfully in acknowledgment. The person didn’t say a word
and just motioned for her to leave quickly.
Given how light the footsteps were, Larry knew who it was without looking. Nevertheless, his mood was
equally foul while the room was still filled with tension.
