Chapter 3001

She's plotting something, I'm sure of it! She obviously knows that she is not supposed to getpregnant, but she still chooses to delay it.

How conniving! Joan's face turned cold at once.

Ring! Ring! Joan took a look at her phone and dithered.

Nonetheless, she answered the call.

"Hi, Joan.Where are you guys? Why are all of you gone?" Jessica asked anxiously.

Joan racked her brain for an excuse and lied miserably, "I..Uhm, I'm out? "I know you're out now,but where are you? I'll go over now."

What? She wants to come here? No way! Joan hurriedly said, "Uhm, I think it'd be better if you tellme where you are and let me come to you instead”

What happened to Joan? Why does she sound so panicky? Jessica glanced at her phone inpuzzlement, baffled by her behavior.

Caspian, too.

It's been so many days.

Why is he not back yet? Where has he gone? She narrowed her eyes and stared out of the window,feeling inexplicably unsettled.

After Joan hung up the call, she turned to Caspian and informed, "That was Jessica calling.Caspian,you have to settle this."

He looked up at her in shock.

No! I can't fail Jessica! But what about this woman whom I slept with? His brows were furroweddeeply as he found himself in a dilemma.

Seeing that Caspian had fallen silent, Lisa suggested, "Caspian, I don't want to put you in a tightspot.How about this? If I'm not pregnant, I promise I won't bother you anymore But if I'm pregnant,I want to stay with you."

"Okay; he answered, deeply moved by her words.

"Caspian!"

Joan could not help but raise her voice.

How could he agree to that? God knows who the father of the baby in her tummy is.

Joan shot daggers at Lisa.

This woman is so annoying! “Caspian, you have to think through this matter carefully” she advised.Yeah, I know that I can't make the promise recklessly, but ! can't be an irresponsible man as well.Caspian gave her a weak smile and said,"Joan, if the baby is really mine, I'll definitely take the kidin"

This guy is unbelievable! Apparently, he only listens to Lisa, not us.

Larry and I have been trying to talk some sense into him, but he pays absolutely no heed to ouradvice.

Joan gave Lisa the side-eye disdainfully.

I hate hypocritical, dramatic women the most.

They gain favor with men by making themselves look pitiful

In the end, Caspian opted to wait for Lisa's pregnancy test results first before deciding what to donext.

As Larry and Joan walked to their car, she held onto his arm and asked, "Hmm, what do you think ofLisa? Is she really pregnant?”

How would I know the answer? The pregnancy test result is not out yet.

Larry let out a sigh and stared ahead, replaceing it a shame that Caspian had gotten himself in thismessy situation.

"I don't think he'll change his mind." Larry voiced out his opinion.

Joan nodded in reply.

Exactly.

Whether it's work or relationship matter, he’s always been rather strong-willed.

Our biggest concern now is Jessica.

Neither of us knows how to tell her about this.

After that, both of them went back to the office.

As Larry flipped through the files in his hands, Jessica suddenly barged into his office in a light-hearted manner.

"Larry!"

He gave her a glance and sighed inwardly as he knew what she was here for.

She then came over to him and tapped on the desk lightly.

"Larry, where were you at just now? I called you guys, but only Joan picked up the call.”

Why is she so quick-tempered? Looking at her, Larry could feel his headache coming on.

"Uhm, is Caspian with both of you just now?"

Jessica continued.

Ignoring her questions, he diverted the topic.

"Why are you here?"
