Chapter 2707 When Are You Leaving
“It’ll be great for you to organize your thoughts.” Larry turned around and walked slowly to the couch.
On the other hand, he was pleased that she would not stir up any trouble for him anymore, but on the other hand, he was upset to see how their relationship had gone sour.
Della had not only betrayed him in business but also in their relationship. No matter what, from now on, Larry wanted to stay away from her.
“Larry,” Caspian came in and greeted.
Larry took a glance at the woman on the bed before looking at Caspian. He then walked out of the ward.
“Anything?” Larry looked worried.
Caspian took a deep breath, and his lips curled into a smile.
“Based on Jessica’s research, she found out that the fashion industry is a lucrative business,” Caspian continued explaining in detail, “Data that she analyzed have also shown that…”
“Great!” Larry rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
Jessica is quite efficient after all! Larry was pleased. “How’s the arrangement with the designers?”
“Jessica has made all the necessary arrangements.” Caspian thumped his chest confidently.
Della tried to eavesdrop on their conversation, but the noises along the corridor had drowned their voices.
“I think we should beware of Ms. Duff,” Suddenly, Caspian warned, “ She has betrayed us before. She can still betray us in the future.”
Caspian might be a brute, but he had learned to be observant after working with Larry for years.
“I know.” Larry patted his shoulder and nodded.
Larry then received a call from Jessica.
He picked up and answered, “Yes?”
“Are you free now? We need to discuss our next course of action!” Jessica sounded nervous.
“Calm down, Jessica,” Larry said, “We have to take it slow.”
Revamping a business required detailed planning and should not be rushed. Otherwise, it would cause more harm than good.
They then ended the call after a short chat.
“I’m gonna go now. See you later,” Caspian turned around and left the hospital.
Larry took a deep breath, organized his thoughts, and returned to the ward.
“Did something bad happen?” Della tested the waters with that question.
“Nothing.” Larry gave her a brief answer.
Upon seeing how calm he looked, Della decided not to pursue further.
“So, when do you plan on leaving?” Larry asked directly. He thought he should send her off.
“Most probably the day after tomorrow, if everything goes well.” Della took a glance at him. She wanted him to know she was reluctant to leave.
I hope nothing goes wrong and she’ll leave according to her plan! Larry sighed and looked dejected.
“You must be happy that I’d be gone.” Della looked away.
“I feel nothing,” Larry answered, “I’m used to saying goodbye.”
Yeah, right. I bet you would have reacted differently if I’m Joan Watts! Annoyance was written all over Della’s face.
“Is there anything I can do for you? Do let me know.” Larry shrugged and grinned.
Della looked at him and responded with a smile and a head shake. Awkwardness filled the air all of a sudden. Della knew Larry did not wish to see her anymore.
“How’s Joan? She’s still not back yet?” Della asked as if she did not know a thing about it.
Larry nodded icily. At the same time, Della could tell he was overwhelmed by emotions.
Did they have a fight? How is that possible? Della cast a doubtful eye at him, but at the same time, how she wished that was true.
