Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2640

Truce

Caspian and Jasper exchanged cold eyes with each other.

"I just wanted to beat him to his *ss!" Jasper answered loudly.

"So am I!" Caspian refused to back down neither.

The cop interrogating them, Inspector Ken could no longer hold back his laughter and uncontrollably spat out the water from his mouth. "Oh my, Inspector! Couldn't you be a little more civilized?" The female cop standing next to him complained while wiping her uniform.

"I'm so sorry. I couldn't help it." Inspector Ken immediately apologized while coughing.

A few moments later, he tidied up his uniform and feigned a serious look at the two men.

"Now, both of you tell me why exactly did you fight? No lies!"

His intimidating voice echoed through the whole station like thunder.

"Inspector, this is just a misunderstanding. We were fooling around. As you see, the weather is freezing, so we merely did some warmups." Jasper was swift in an attempt to avoid more trouble.

"He's absolutely right. There is no problem between us. Look, we are both fine and uninjured." Caspian played the same move as well.

What the h*ck. This is interesting. Inspector Ken started observing the two of them from head to toes. After that, he shifted his gaze upon Jessica who was standing beside and soon came to a realization. "It's all because of her, right?" His observation was indeed sharp and experienced.

The both men froze in their spots at once.

"No... it's not like that..." Both denied quickly but unnaturally.

"Come on. It's not embarrassing to admit it. Even heroes fall for beauties."

Hearing that, both of them looked down at the floor, out of words.

Seconds later, Caspian abruptly lifted his head and looked back at the inspector.

"Actually, she is our judge!" Caspian said while slightly pushing Jasper's arm.

"Yes... right. Whoever loses has to treat the other to dinner. And we asked her to judge for us," Jasper added right away.

These bast*rds! Turns out they are quite tacit!

"Caspian!"

Right at that moment, Larry barged in the police station.

"Mr. Norton, why are you here?" Inspector Ken stood up immediately to greet him.

"Caspian, are you alright?" Larry ignored the inspector and walked right up to Caspian.

"Larry, what are you doing here? I'm fine." Startled by Larry, Caspian abruptly stood up and answered.

Fine? Look at your face and all the bruises on your arms and legs. How is this fine? Larry's chest heaved up and down as he tried to suppress his rage, looking at the disheveled Caspian. "I'm sorry, Larry." Jessica ran up to Larry and lowered her head before him, while tears welled up in her eyes.

"It's okay. I will handle you after this." Larry replied indifferently.

"Inspector, these two are my men. And they didn't mean to cause this fuss. Could you please let them go this time..." While Larry was explaining, he threw an eye at Jasper ferociously. Why is he staring at me? This is not my fault alone. Jasper side-eyed back at Larry but did not say a word.

After the procedure, Larry took the three of them out of the police station.

"Tell me what the h*ll happened!" He began interrogating them the second he stepped out of the station. Those three exchanged eyes with each other while none dared to open their mouths.

"Frankly, it is quite embarrassing..."Caspian mumbled while casting a cold glance at Jasper.

"Why don't we forget about it. Let me buy you guys a drink, okay?" Jasper interrupted abruptly.

"Okay, deal!" Caspian responded without any hesitation.

Are the two of them out of their minds? Moments ago, they were trying to kill each other. How could they act like brothers now?

Jessica stared at them in bewilderment, unable to comprehend the situation.

"Alright, Larry. Let's go. We'll talk while eating." Caspian wrapped his arms around Larry's shoulder.

By that time, the temperature outside had decreased again, yet the freezing breeze did not seem to affect the warmth between these few people.
