“Larry, maybe you should go back to your own room first,” Caspian suggested. ‘TH look after her.”
Larry glanced at his watch and then back at Della, guilt written all over his face.
“Then I'll leave. I still have work to do, anyways. If she wakes up, buy something for her to eat.” With that, he got up and left the room.
There had been too many things happening at Norton Corporation recently that he needed to resolve as soon as possible, or else it would affect the expansion of the company.
“Larry?” A familiar voice called out to him from behind.
Is that...
He slowly turned around to see who the person was. His first reaction was shock, and then a heightened sense of caution.
“What a coincidence,” Dustin stated, standing a good distance away from him as he scanned Larry from head to toe. “Why are you here? Are you hurt?”
“Yeah, I've been staying here for a few days.” Larry turned back around and made to leave.
“Wait,” Dustin approached him. “Us meeting here must have been some sort of fate, right? Let's eat a meal together.”
Disdain flashed through the depths of Larry's gaze. The idea of eating with this man made him lose his appetite.
“I have work to do. Goodbye.”
“Does it have to do with Ms. Duff?”
How does he know that?Does he have something to do with everything that has happened in this country? He narrowed his eyes at Dustin.
Unbeknownst to him, Larry's suspicions were right. Dustin was the one who was secretly controlling Matthew from behind the scenes, and he was the one who framed Malcolm. Why? The reason was simple: he wanted to torture Larry and make his life harder.
Although, he honestly hadn't expected Delia's sudden appearance.
“What do you want?” Larry snapped.
“Why are you getting all riled up for? I'm just minding my own business and earning some income on the side, that's all.” Dustin shrugged.
