    Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2687


    Press Conference


    “Larry!”


    Caspian looked anxiously at Larry.


    “It’s fine, don’t worry. We’ll get someone to clean it up,” Larry said as he indicated the mess on the floor.


    “So our partnership with Ms. Duff…” Caspian said with some hesitation, unsure of how to approach the


    matter delicately.


    “Call it off! All of it!” Larrymanded authoritatively.


    Caspian gave him arge thumbs up in approval.


    At the entrance to Norton Corporation, the reporters did not disperse. All of them were animatedly


    discussing the events of the previous night.


    They kept it up until De appeared when they rushed forward to crowded around her.


    “Ms. Duff, we would like to know when you and Mr. Norton would be getting married?” a reporter asked


    urgently while pushing arge microphone towards her.


    “Yes, Ms. Duff. We heard that you and Mr. Norton were living together…”


    De smiled slightly at the sight of the journalists before her.


    Yes, just what I wanted!


    Ms. Duff, why are you crying?” a journalist asked concernedly.


    Tears flowed down De’s cheek as she ran off.


    The journalists were stunned at the sight of her departing figure.


    “What’s going on? That wasn’t in the script!”


    “How is this going to y out next?”


    “After her!” De’s assistant gestured from the sidelines.


    Why are they looking so demotivated?


    Soon, suggestive and lewd gossip once again made headlines.


    Larry’s public image had suffered great damage, while De emerged as the martyr of the entire


    drama.


    “Are what they’re saying on the news true?” asked a young employee of Norton Corporation to her


    colleague.


    “I don’t know, but it must have happened for a reason. It’s possible that Mr. Norton had unintentionally


    offended that De.”


    The two women exchanged spections, unaware that Larry stood several paces away behind them.


    “Mr. Norton!” gasped one of the gossipers in a shaky voice as she jumped with fright at the sight of him.


    “What were you discussing earlier?” Larry asked them coldly.


    “We were talking about work, yes. We were discussing a n…”


    “Yes, that’s right. A n…”


    The women hurriedly corroborated each other’s lies for fear of losing their jobs.


    “Do your jobs and keep your noses out of other people’s affairs!” Larry snapped as he turned and


    entered his office.


    Caspian gazed at them helplessly as he shook his head with a sigh.


    The employees who were able to survive in Norton Corporation were talented professionals. A couple


    of busybodies and gossipers were bound to exist.

    “Larry, why don’t we hold a press conference?” Caspian suggested as an attempt tobat this prickly


    matter.


    “No need,” Larry replied shortly.


    “Our conscious is clear. There’s no need to prove anything,” Larry said in a quiet voice.


    It’s been many days. Larry had be more open minded. Society was like a murky seabed; there


    were all sorts of dubious characters. The extreme limits of one’s character were difficult to grasp given


    the breadth of possibilities. Some people were kind at heart but became wicked halfway through life.


    There were also some who were sinners in their youth but came to their sensester in theirter years


    and sought to lead a normal life.


    In this world, there was no absolute good or absolute bad.


    “Larry, I think that you should exin to everyone and at least make it known that you had never


    offended Ms. Duff and had never promised her anything…” Caspian blurted. His face was red with


    embarrassment.


    Caspian believed that the man before him was not one who would be seduced by De easily. He


    firmly believed that Larry’s love for Joan was pure and loyal.


    Thump!


    The door was kicked open.
