Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2183

I'm only taking care of Jessica on behalf of Caspian. Speaking of which, where on earth is that man?

Larry took out his phone and called his number.

At that moment, Caspian was hiding in a corner, feeling utterly dejected.

The woman he loved was all head over heels for Larry. No matter how hard he tried, his effort was all in vain.

Upon feeling the vibration of his phone in his office, Caspian gathered himself together and answered the call.

"Where are you? Come to the hospital right now. Jessica injured her foot. You should be taking care of her instead of running around!" Larry expressed his dismay. Caspian knew Larry had his interests at heart, but what could he do? It was obvious that Jessica had her eyes on someone else.

"Got it. I'll be there in a minute," Caspian ended the call and ran to meet Larry.

All this while, he had been in hospital, but he just did not have the courage to see the two of them together.

"Where have you been? Quick, she's in the ward now." Larry walked up to him and gave him a gentle pat on the shoulder. Meanwhile, Jessica, who was ashen-faced, was lying on the bed and flipping through a magazine.

"How's your foot?" Caspian asked.

"I'm fine. Don't worry." she gave a brief answer.

"I bought this for you. Would you..."

"No thanks. I don't feel like eating or drinking anything," she interrupted before Caspian could finish his sentence.

An awkward silence ensued. At that time, Larry had left the hospital to give them some private space.

"Do you like me?" Jessica stared at him and asked all of a sudden.

Caspian was struck dumb for a moment. He organized his thoughts and answered, "I..."

"Do you like me?" she asked again.

How should I answer her when she asked me in such a direct manner? I'm not prepared at all! Caspian started fidgeting and avoided having eye contact with her.

Upon seeing his expression, Jessica knew what his answer would be.

"Well, since you can't give me an answer, you listen to me carefully then," Jessica said steadily, "I've always liked Larry, and you know it. I don't care if he's married, and I don't care if he has a kid. I don't even care how people think of me."

"I hope you can help me get close with Larry," she continued.

How is that even possible? Nothing could ever break Larry and Joan apart!

"And I want you to know that I've always seen you as my brother," Jessica said this on purpose so that he could give up.

Oh. All right then... I can't force her to love me anyway. But there's no way she could win Larry's heart.

"I'm sorry, but I don't want to meddle in your relationship with Larry," Caspian responded, "And I want you to know that Larry and Joan love each other very much, and there's nothing you can do." Larry and Joan had gone through thick and thin to be together. Caspian did not wish to see Jessica get in their way.

When Gabriella was around, she did everything she could to tear the couple apart. She even hoped to get rid of Joan. Just when Caspian thought things were turning around for Larry and Joan, Jessica appeared and tried to snatch Larry away. He could not help but feel sorry for the couple.

"Where there's a will, there's a way. I believe Larry will realize how good I am if I try harder. I'm sure he'll eventually be mine," Jessica smiled and said.
