Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1708
Caspian gave him a thumbs up. “Yes! That’s right! If that’s the case, Alpire Group and S are definitely
rted to each other. Besides, Alpire Group seems to have been plotting to acquire ourpany for a
long time. I don’t think they’re after us for the money.”
Larry mulled over it for a while before replying, “Exactly, and that was what I worried about the most,
but, s, it’s now confirmed to be true. Anyway, what does S want from us?”
Meanwhile, Nancy was ordering coffee in a café. Her ears immediately perked up the moment she
heard two of the servers gossiping about Norton Corporation.
“I wonder what’s the rtionship between this guy and Mr. Norton.”
What kind of rtionship could they be referring to? Countless questions shed through Nancy’s mind
as she sipped on her coffee, straining her ears to listen more.
“Yeah, it does look suspicious. Look at him—he is even publicly defending Mr. Norton.”
As the servers continued to chatter and giggle at their phones, Nancy could not wait to share what she
heard with Joan and rushed back to her seat.
They bumped into each other while on their way to Norton Corporation. Thinking that she had not
formally apologized to Joan for locking her out previously, Nancy decided to invite Joan for a coffee
together at a café nearby. After all, their previous conflict was not something easy to be resolved.
“Joan, just now I heard the servers gossiping about Larry’s rtionship with another guy. I wonder
what’s that about.” Nancy eyed the counter, signaling Joan to look at the servers.
Joan could not help but roll her eyes. What rtionship? What guy? Brushing aside the rumor, she told
Nancy to pay no mind on the silly tittle-tattle. Just when Joan was about to take a sip on her coffee,
Nancy sprang up from her seat, pointing at the phone in her hand. “Oh my God!”
“Gosh, Nancy, stop being so jumpy. I’ve had enough of stress at thepany these few days. My poor
little heart can barely take it anymore,” Joan said, patting her chest.
Nancy continued to stare wide-eyed at her and smiled stiffly, handing her the phone. “Okay, I’ll shut up.
Have a look at this yourself.”
In the video, a group of journalists was swarming a man in the middle. Since this clip was taken by one
of the onlookers in the jostling crowd, the whole footage was so shaky that it made Joan dizzy.
As the clip went on, the crowd got even denser. As such, Joan could not see the face of the man who
was surrounded. Nevertheless, she clearly heard the journalists asking questions rted to Norton
Corporation. Before the clip ended, someone among the crowd shouted, “I don’t care! I’ll help him no
matter what!”
Wait a minute. That’s Caspian’s voice. Turning towards Nancy, she saw her burying her face in her
hands as if she was so embarrassed that she could not bring herself to face anyone.
The short clip immediately spread throughout all entertainment news with the headlines: ‘The
Commotion in Front of the Norton Corporation’, ‘Norton Corporation’s Staff Is Gay’, ‘Staff of the Norton
N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.
Corporation Provokes the Journalists’. At the time of their viewing, the footage had about fifty thousand
likes and twenty thousandments.
The majority of thements were about the rtionship between Larry and the staff. Joan could not
help but sigh at the speed of the news became viral on the inte—probably faster than the speed of
a rocketunch. The media is taking the content in this video out of context. It clearly shows that the
man is only trying to get his friend out of a sticky situation. Yet, the media misled the audience into
thinking it was something else.
Joan handed the phone back to Nancy, speechless. Nancy threw her phone into her bag and stepped
out of the café with a grim expression, muttering, “I’m going to see him now!”
After leaving a tip on the table, Joan hurriedly took her bag and trailed behind Nancy to look for the
protagonists in the video. Have the words about thepany’s crisis spread out? Otherwise, why are
those reporters flocking thepany?
