Indeed, if she wants to take a vacation overseas, no one can stop her. If she wants to look for Joan, then no one can stop her too. Also, if she wants to sabotage the wedding, she'll most definitely do whatever it takes to snatch Joan away from Jake's clutches! This is just the beginning!
Larry took a moment to fix his attire before stepping out of the restaurant.
But both he and his team were clueless as to where Jake and Joan's wedding ceremony would be held. They only knew that the ceremony and the banquet would take place in different cities. The wedding invitation only stated the venue of the banquet.
That was troubling indeed.
Some time had passed since the impromptu meeting with Jake. Larry and Dustin had come together to figure things out. "Any news about Jake these days?" Larry asked the other man a serious question from where he sat on the sofa.
Dustin tilted his head as he thought hard about it, his expression was indecipherable.
"I just find it odd that we haven't heard anything related to Jake for a while now. It's like he's not even doing anything," Dustin replied Jake as he stroked his chin, confusion swimming in his eyes.
That's definitely not a good sign! He's about to get married, and yet there's no news about him? Or could it be that this is all going according to his plan?
Larry turned away to look out at the lighthouse a short distance away. He sank into deep thought.
"Did you check whether Jake's been flying out of the country in the past few days?" Larry suggested as though an epiphany had struck him.
For a brief moment, Dustin froze. That's right! How can I have forgotten about that? He ran out of the office soon after.
Just as Larry had expected, Jory and Nancy were having the time of their life while traveling abroad. But, their journey was disrupted when they came across an important piece of information.
"Hurry up! I want to go back!" Nancy yelled, with little regard for Jory's feelings about the whole thing.
Have you gone nuts? We've just barely got out of the country and now you want to go back? Weren't you the one who's been egging to travel overseas? It's just been a few days and now you're crying to go back. Why are you doing this, Nancy?
