The photos or video clips of the news were plastered over the internet.

“Larry, calm down. That isn’t like what it seems,” Jessica quickly tried to calm him down.

What else can that mean? Are they acting? I don’t think Joan ever wanted to be an actress.

“Forget it. You don’t have to explain more,” Larry uttered.

Caiden, that bas*ard! How dare he do something as low as this? He slammed the table with lasers shooting from his eyes.

“Well, at least Joan did not accept it. Besides, Caiden was never going to win her over in the first place. You should know that she only has eyes for you,” Jessica rambled.

They are two separate matters!

“Mr. Norton, some of our partners called, and they requested to have a meeting with you,” his assistant rushed into his room and announced.

Why do they have to be so keen on meeting me at a time like this? Larry frowned and looked out of the window, thinking about what to do.

“What time do they want to meet me?”

“Tonight,” the assistant reported.

Are they that anxious? Is this because of the project? Larry mulled over it.

“Okay, go ahead and prepare for the meeting tonight. Please reschedule the engagements on my schedule for tonight to tomorrow morning,” Larry instructed.

He was so overwhelmed with work that he did not have the time to deal with Joan’s matter.

Whatever, I’ll let him do things his way. I believe I’ll still be able to capture Joan’s heart regardless.

“Don’t stand there like a wooden doll. Just get back to work,” Larry ordered Jessica.

“Alright. If anything happens, let me know.” Uh, why would I call her?

“Joan, what exactly happened?” Nancy anxiously demanded over a call to Joan.

What else can it be? Of course, Caiden went crazy. Joan’s gaze darkened.

“Nothing. Everything is over,” she assured.

She was deceiving herself to think that everything was in the past. At this point, she did not know if Caiden had given up yet.

“Joan, everything that has happened might be in the past. But what about his feelings for you? What is your opinion on this, and what does Caiden have in mind? Don’t you understand what is involved? The Owens family is reputable, and you have to resolve this matter as soon as possible,” the person on the other line advised.

Nancy was right. Keith did put a lot of importance on the Owens family’s image, and he would never allow his son to do anything that might tarnish their reputation.

That was also something that Caiden was aware of and why he had kept to the rules thus far. Nevertheless, his proposal was clearly an act out of desperation.

He thought that Joan would at least consider his feelings if he knelt in front of her in a romantic setting. To his dismay, she was rational and stuck to her beliefs.

“I know. Don’t worry, I will sort it out.” Joan sighed.

She knew that she would have to face some pointless hurdles soon.

“Does Larry know about it? Have you explained it to him?” Nancy asked.

“No, but I do intend to explain to him.” Following that, they chatted for a little while before they ended the call.

If she did not clarify the matter to Larry in time, the damage would have been done.

“Caspian, is Larry in?” Joan probed.

“He is in his office,” Caspian replied, sounding as though he was upset with her.

Joan did not take notice of his tone and walked straight to Larry’s office.

At that time, Larry was discussing the details of the project with the other directors.

Watching the heated discussion inside the room, Joan chose to wait outside.

After what seemed like an eternity, Joan fell asleep on the sofa outside. As Larry did not notice the woman’s presence, he headed straight to his office after sending his guests away.
