Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2641

Drunk

"Come, Caspian! Here's to you!" Jasper held up a beer and toasted.

"Come, Jasper! I toast you for your fighting spirit!"

As the two of them were savoring the moment, they seemed to totally forget the existence of Jessica.

"Now you can talk. Tell me why they fought," Larry asked Jessica.

"Because of me." Jessica gazed at him, with misery written all over her face.

"So Jasper likes you?" Larry got straight to the point.

Jessica did not answer but nodded her head.

"You are an attractive woman." Larry let out a smile.

Larry's sudden change of mood left Jessica befuddled for a while.

"Don't worry. It's all fine now. Look at them. I am sure they will become good friends in the future," Larry said while eating from his plate.

It was beyond obvious that Caspian and Jasper were both similar loyal types with upholding justice. As the saying goes, the same feathers flock together. "Come, one more toast!" Caspian shouted in excitement.

"Caspian, I didn't expect you're such a strong drinker!" Jasper patted Caspian's arms strongly.

"Larry, do you think I'm a bad person?" Jessica uttered softly.

"Nope. Not at all." Larry shook his head without hesitating.

In the end, as expected, Caspian and Jasper were drunk.

"Alright. You deal with him properly tomorrow. See you then." Larry sent Caspian and Jessica back to their house and left at once.

Staring at Caspian, who was lying on the bed, a dark expression loomed over Jessica's face. She was uncertain if she should be happy or sad at the moment.

The next morning, sunlight shone through the windows, filling the room with warmth. Caspian rolled over on the bed, trying to hug his woman, but only to notice no one beside him. What? Where has she gone to? Caspian rubbed his eyes and scanned the room.

"Jessica?" he called out softly.

To his puzzlement, there was no trace of her anywhere.

"Jessica? I am awake." He started to raise his voice.

He looked through all the places urgently but was left disappointed.

Where the h*ll did she go? Without wasting time, he took up his phone and called Jessica.

"Sorry, the number you have dialed is unavailable..."

Deep down, Caspian started feeling a sense of unease.

Without hesitation, he changed his clothes and headed out.

He stopped by all the hotels nearby and made sure Jessica was not in any of them.

With that, he began to panic.

Don't tell me that Jasper kidnapped her. The scene of their fight from the previous day instantly taunted his mind.

That's hardly possible! I doubt Jasper would pull out something so despicable! He shook his head forcefully, trying hard to clear his thought.

Ring... Ring... Ring...

Just then, his phone rang.

"Caspian, please go and buy your own breakfast ya. I won't be back so soon." Jessica's tone sounded sleepy.

"Where are you?" Caspian asked nervously.

"I'm with Larry. Don't worry." Upon saying that, Jessica hung up the phone.

Larry was the one who sent Caspian back the previous night. According to their deal, Jessica would need to work for Larry for a week.

"Larry, it's not that I want to mention, but aren't you going to pay me since I work for you so diligently?" Jessica complained while busy with her work.

"I thought you were voluntary," Larry replied while he continued to type on his keyboard.

Indeed, I volunteered for this. But the point is, if I didn't, there would be no one to send Caspian back home! How was I supposed to move him all by myself?

Thud!

Out of a sudden, someone kicked the door open forcefully.

"Jessica!" Caspian shouted.

"What are you doing? Are you out of your mind?" Jessica was shocked to see Caspian.

"Obviously he misses you," Larry replied curtly.

"You scared me to death. I thought something bad happened to you." Caspian rushed over and hugged Jessica tightly.
