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.

"By the way, I've got your money, and it's in my office now. Don't forget to take it tomorrow," Larry said in a deep voice.

"Okay. Thank you very much, Larry. Let me propose a toast to you with tea." 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 Jessica-at 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?" Jessica looked up and asked Larry.

"I don't know, but I think she will be delighted. However, I have not seen her lately," Larry replied and while shrugging his shoulder helplessly.

"Don't worry, Larry. Your problems are my problems as well. I'll help you coax her!" Jessica gave a forceful pat on his shoulder.

"Jessica, don't do that. Please don't stir up trouble for me. I can solve the problems by myself," Larry declined her offer directly.

"Come on. You might not understand women like me. Don't worry and leave this to me!"

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. "Do you not believe me? Larry, I promise to fulfill the task perfectly!" Jessica pledged confidently.

Upon hearing it, Larry felt a little headache coming. Why does she look like a drunkard now even though she didn't have alcohol?

"Well, should I drive you home?" he asked.

"No, I want to have more wine. Cheers!" 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?"

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.

"Larry, 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," 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.

"That's enough. Stop eating, and let's go home. We can come here again next time." With that, Larry wanted to help her up.

"I'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?" 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 she's Caspian's future wife, I should let Caspian deal with her!
