Chapter 3054
This was the first time Jessica saw Larry being so meticulous about something not work-related.To be able to witness them tying the knot was a wish come true.
Who wouldn't want to see their brother living a happy life? Not to mention, Larry was her savinggrace.
"Then I'll get Nancy and-"
"Don’t!"
Larry cut her off.
Stroking his chin, he continued in a soft voice, "We can't tell Nancy about this.She's too unreliable atkeeping secrets. Who knows? She might accidentally have a slip of tongue in front of Joan."Jessica tilted her head in thought and found what he said made sense.
Hence, they directly excluded Nancy.
"Larry, what about Abelyn? Do you think she can be trusted?" Jessica asked cautiously.
Generally speaking, Abelyn is actually a reliable person.
But ever since what happened, I can't be sure if she'd have any hard feelings.
Maybe I should get this sister of mine to sound her out.
"Go talk to her and see how she reacts.Don’t mention anything about Joan and me yet."
Jessica naturally understood Larry's intention.
Nodding her head, she left to carry out her task soon after.
Rather than sounding Abelyn out, Larry actually wanted Jessica to persuade her.He knew that shecurrently was guilt-ridden and couldn't bring herself to face Joan.
Hence, it would be better for a woman to come forward and convince her.
Based on his understanding of Joan's personality, she would never easily give up on her friendshipwith Abelyn, or anyone for that matter.
"What did you say? Larry is going to propose to Joan? This is amazing news!"
Abelyn exclaimed with excitement in the living room.
Of course she wished for the two of them to be happy.
They had gone through so much, and she wanted nothing more for them to have their happily everafter.
"Yeah.If you're willing, we can help Larry with the preparations; Jessica added while gauging herreaction.Suddenly, a flicker of sadness crossed her face.
Of course I'm willing.
I just don't know if Joan would want to see me.
With unshed tears in her eyes, she turned her face to look out the window.
I've made so many mistakes.How could Joan forgive me so easily after I hurt her so many times?More tears pooled in Abelyn's eyes, and she wished she could reverse all the wrong she had done."Don’t overthink things.I'm sure you know very well what kind of people Joan and Larry areJoanisn't one to hold grudges
Trust me, she's already let bygones be bygones.
As long as we get along well from now on and avoid causing any trouble, things can still return tohow they used to be.
We can still eat together, go to the movies together, shop together, and all that.
Jessica gently patted Abelyn's shoulder to comfort her.
The latter felt a sliver of hope upon hearing what she said and instantly turned back to look at herwith an earnest expression
Is this true?Could Joan and Larry really be willing to forgive me so easily? Her eyes gleamed withuncertainty.
Everyone with eyes could see how deeply Larry loved Joan, and anyone who hurt her would have toface his wrath.
"You don't have to overcomplicate things.We're all close friends and Larry understands that.Joanalso said that people should always look ahead and move on” Jessica added.
She's right.
It's not easy for a person to live a decent life in this world.
There's no time to look back at our past.
We need to appreciate the present and look forward to the future.
Abelyn sniffled, feeling disheartened.
If only 1 used an open mind to view things back then, perhaps none of this would've happened.She sighed softly and spoke in a self-deprecating tone.
"Alright, then.As long as none of you mind my involvement, I'll do my best."
That's right.This is the real Abelyn Chipmanil can still redeem myself as long as I own up to mymistake and repent.Who hasn't made mistakes in this world anyway?
