Chapter 2987

Caspian directed a question at him, “Larry, I heard that Jake had helped Joan out of the nastysituation where she was surrounded by onlookers in the mall.Don't you think it's only reasonable forher to buy him a meal to return the favor?"

Suddenly, Larry went dead silent.

Although Caspian's words made complete sense, he couldn't help feeling infuriated when he sawthem together.

Knowing what Larry was concerned about, Jessica chimed in, "But they haven't done anything, havethey? So what are you so angry about?"

She knew the man had a huge tendency to overthink things whenever Joan was involved.That said,it wasn't actually a bad thing.

After all, Joan had been through all sorts of ups and downs in her life, so she deserved to have acaring man by her side.

"Alright, just calm down.I'm leaving now"

Having said that, Jessica prepared to leave the office.

"Hey, hold on! Della needs someone to guide her.I don't think it's appropriate for me to meet her inher office.Can you head over on my behalf?"

Larry stopped Jessica before she could make her way out.

Excuse me? Is he seriously expecting me to guide that damned woman? No way! We have neverseen eye to eye! I will never give in to his request! "Sorry, but please send someone else over toguide her, Jessica turned him down without a second thought.

I don't mind if someone else helps her, but I definitely won't do it.

Larry was well aware of the grudge Jessica held against Della

"Jessica, she has already turned over a new leaf.Don't you think she deserves another chance?”

Oh really? Even though Joan was almost dead because of her? Forget about it.I don't need a friendlike her!Besides, I don't intend to get involved with those from the upper echelon.

After all, I'm just an ordinary entrepreneur, and I can't afford to offend those bigshots.

Larry headed over to the couch and sat down before he took a sip of tea.

He knew it would be challenging to get others to accept Della because of the things she had done.However, he still hoped that they would give Della another chance.

Tapping on Jessica's shoulder, he suggested, "Since Mr.Duff needs our help, why don't you considerdoing him a favor by guiding Della?"

Mr.Duff? He might be a reputable person, but does it have anything to do with me? On top of that, Idon't see any reason to do him the favor since I have no intention to collaborate with them.

"No! If you want to do him a favor, why don't you volunteer yourself? I have quite a lot of things onmy plate.So if you'd excuse me, I need to leave!"

She got up from her seat to leave.

Well, I guess it's going to take quite a long time before they can get along with one another.

They need to resolve their conflicts on their own.

Not everyone is as understanding as Joan.

Perhaps I should get Joan to talk to Jessica.

Larry gestured for her to leave and said, "If that's the case, get going already. need to take a break.”At the sight of the seemingly worn-out man, Jessica felt a hint of guilt.

She brought herself to a halt and started having second thoughts about her decision.

Should I do him a favor and drop by Delia's office just for once? He raised his head and looked atJessica, asking in a hushed voice, "What? Is there anything else you wish to talk about?"

She replied, "I guess I'll drop by her office just this once, but I'm merely doing it for you, not her!"The man responded with a smirk as her response was exactly what he had expected.

She added petulantly, "Also, don't forget to pay me since I have to take care of my bookstore too."Has she always been so money-minded? Chuckling, he reached for a random card from his walletand cast it in her direction.

"Here you go!"

Jessica started jumping for joy and kissed the card.

“Larry, you're awesome!"
