Chapter 3090 Smarter This Time
Of course she’s eager to see you! Jake was rubbing palms together restlessly, clearly feeling uneasy about the situation. “Mr. Landon, from one man to another, I think careers should always come first… ”
Marcus sat there, going through some documents as Jake went about his blabbering.
At first, Marcus was courteous towards Jake. But as time went on, he got increasingly annoyed, to a point where he tossed his documents onto the table in front of him, expressing his displeasure all over his face.
“Mr. Wilson, if you have nothing else to say, I think you should leave now. Ms. Duff invited you too, right? Don’t you need to get ready?” Marcus asked.
Get ready? I’m not even going!
“I don’t have the time for that, Mr. Landon. As I said, my work comes first,” Jake answered deliberately.
“Then why are you here? Your work is back in your home country, right?” Marcus responded, rendering Jake speechless.
Looks like he has no intention of siding with me..
With that, Jake let out a quiet sigh, upset written all over his face. He knew Marcus would reject him if he came to him looking to work together. Luckily, I did something about the ship.
In the end, Marcus took a look and his watch, then at Jake, before leaving with his coat in hand.
Jake was rather disappointed to see the man before him disappearing from his sight.
“Mr. Wilson, what should we do now?”
What can we do? Let’s just attend that banquet.
“To the banquet!” Jake said as he walked out.
Because of Della’s cooperation, Larry was able to complete his task within the shortest time frame.
Caspian and Larry’s assistant was gobsmacked to see the piles of clothing in front of them. They never expected the workers in the factory to be able to produce so many clothes in such a short amount of time.
“Alright now, stop gawking! I hired a lot of workers and doubled their pay to make this possible,” Larry explained, seeing that the two were dumbfounded.
Immediately, the two of them understood everything. As long as the job is done and the company’s reputation is preserved, anything goes!
This time, Larry was smart about how he delivered the products. He did not ship them out like how he did. Instead, he chose a more elaborate method. Hence, when Jake realized what was going on, the clothes had already arrived at their destination.
Bang! Jake slammed his fist onto a vase in the office, infuriated.
Ted was beside him, watching him rage on but dared not make a sound.
“Damn you, Larry Norton!” Jake roared towards the window.
Ah-choo!
Back in the country, Larry sneezed all of a sudden. “Who’s thinking about me?” He said softly, smiling.
I wonder. “It’s not Della, right?” Joan smirked disdainfully.
Joan could not attend Della’s banquet with Larry because she was rather busy recently.
Oh? Is she jealous right now? With that in mind, Larry slowly approached her and wrapped his arms around her. “Are you jealous?” He asked with a smug look on his face.
No way! Joan looked the other way and stayed quiet.
Then, Larry gave her a peck on the cheek. He was happy because he loved seeing Joan’s expression when she was jealous. It was adorable.
“Alright now. We should be thanking Della. She really got me out of a rough spot,” Larry continued.
Yeah… Who is she anyway? Joan was curious since Della was able to gain so much traction in so little time. On top of that, she was gorgeous and outstanding in terms of her academics. Men naturally flocked towards her, and Joan could not tell whether Larry was still one of those men.
So, she gave him a stare before turning around, wanting to leave.
“Where are you going? Don’t go. Let me hug you longer,” Larry spoke into Joan’s ear in a soft tone, breathing at it.
After spending some sweet time with each other, Joan finally decided to bring up some important matters with Larry. “Hey, should we bring Lucius over?”
