Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2281
Since when has she become so smart? She's even playing such a trick on me! If she can focus on
developing her career, she'll be successful very soon.
âBy the way, I've got your money, and it's in my office now. Don't forget to take it tomorrow,â Larry
said in a deep voice.
"Okay. Thank you very much, Larry. Let me propose a toast to you with tea.â With that, Jessica
gulped down her drink.
She behaves like a boss! Why didn't I notice this before?
Larry's lips curled into a smile.
Unbeknown to them, Joan was looking at them dejectedly from the window not far from them.
She purposely bought many things and made adequate preparations to go on a trip with Nancy.
Unexpectedly, she happened to see her husband and the woman, who always appeared on the
news, having meals and chatting happily.
They look like a sweet couple and are having a nice chat.
As Joan's expression grew dim, she realized that Larry probably hadn't laughed heartily for quite
some time. Suddenly, she admired Jessicaâat least she could make Larry laugh and feel happy for
her.
Forget it. I should go home now.
Joan slowly turned around and left.
On the other hand, Larry and Jessica kept laughing at the jokes they made. Ever since Larry and
Jessica became god siblings, they seemed to be more open to one another.
"By the way, how will Joan react when she knows that you have a godsister?â Jessica looked up and
asked Larry.
âI don't know, but I think she will be delighted. However, I have not seen her lately,â Larry replied
and while shrugging his shoulder helplessly.
âDonât worry, Larry. Your problems are my problems as well. I'll help you coax her!â Jessica gave a
forceful pat on his shoulder.
âJessica, don't do that. Please don't stir up trouble for me. I can solve the problems by myself,â Larry
declined her offer directly.
âCome on. You might not understand women like me. Donât worry and leave this to me!â
Why should I not worry? You behave just like a man but claim that you're no different from a
woman. Larry glanced at Jessica and shook his head helplessly.
Perhaps due to the death of her parents, Jessica had stopped being melodramatic. She swore to
herself to be brave and stary strong whenever she faced difficulties.
âDo you not believe me? Larry, I promise to fulfill the task perfectly!â Jessica pledged confidently.
Upon hearing it, Larry felt a little headache coming. Why does she look like a drunkard now even
though she didnât have alcohol?
âWell, should I drive you home?â he asked.
âNo, I want to have more wine. Cheers!â Jessica suddenly lifted her glass and yelled.
What's going on? Where's the wine? Could it be that there's wine in her cup? Larry immediately
grabbed the glass from her.
Just as I thought! Why is she playing such a trick?
"Jessica, didn't I say that we mustn't have alcohol?â
Larry was truly mad and offended. He didn't want any unexpected events to happen again for he
had learned a lesson that he would never forget for the rest of his life.
âLarry, you got me. Hehe, it's fine. I just had a little wine. I'm not drunk. See, I'm still conscious. Rest
assured that I won't kiss you again,â Jessica said while waving her arms wildly.
Larry felt a little embarrassed as a few diners around them were staring at her, probably thinking
that she was crazy.
This damned woman just can't stop stirring up troubles.
âThat's enough. Stop eating, and let's go home. We can come here again next time.â With that, Larry
wanted to help her up.
âI'm not leaving. Besides, I'm not full yet. Larry, are you reluctant to spend on me? How can the
president of a large corporation be so stingy?â Jessica shrank away from him when she was talking.
What nonsense is she talking about? Since when have I been stingy? Haven't I been paying the bills
every time she wanted to treat me to dinner?
Since sheâs Caspianâs future wife, I should let Caspian deal with her!
