"Thank you.Send my regards to your mom," uttered Joan politely.

So he's the man Larry mentioned.

Jessica stroked her chin while studying the man before her, nodding.

Since he's this handsome, does Joan seriously not have any feelings for him? I doubt it! No.I can't let this be.

I have to replace out! After a moment of small talk, Johann Wright finally decided to leave.

"What's inside the box? I want a taste too."

Jessica stared at the box in Joan's hand curiously.

Joan thought to herself, / can't believe this girl.

All she thinks about is food.

Sometime later, a piece of freshly made pizza was presented in front of the women.

"Here you go"

Without any care in the world, Jessica instantly dug in, rendering Joan speechless.

Joan stared at her friend for a minute before shaking her head and walking away.

"This is so delicious. You're blessed to get such good food, you know; remarked Jessica.It was indeed fortunate that Joan had met some kind-hearted neighbors. "Hey.Do you replace that man attractive?"

Jessica tried to sound Joan out.

"Hmm.He's average, I guess."

Larry's the only attractive man for me.

Jessica breathed a sigh of relief after hearing her reply.

What a shame.

If ! weren't in a relationship with Caspian, I would've made a move on that guy!

"Do you think he likes you?" asked Jessica cautiously as she wrapped her arm around Joan's shoulders.

What is up with her? She's been spouting nonsense lately, and where did that question come from? Shaking her head, Joan sighed.

"I think you have too much free time on your hands, Jessica, to the point that you've been thinking about trivial matters like this"

Jessica indeed had too much free time.

After all, since the bookstore had been going smoothly, she had nothing else to do.

The only thing she was concerned about was matters that had to do with Larry.

A spark of mischievousness ignited within Jessica as she studied Joan.

She never showed any signs of thinking about Larry, so much so that I don't even have any idea if she still cares about him. Hmm...seems like I'm going to have to test her.

"Anyway, did you know that something has happened on Larry's end?" she began, discreetly casting a glance toward Joan.

Clink! Right at that moment, the spoon in Joan's hand fell to the ground.

After regaining her composure, she picked it up before asking in panic, "Why? What happened to him?"

Jessica was secretly pleased with her reaction.

I knew it! She still cares about him.

She's just too stubborn to admit it.

But why? Shouldn't she be more straightforward when it comes to matters of love? If she keeps bottling it up, she'd be the one who will suffer. "Look at you, getting all panicky. Have you fallen for Larry?"

"Wha- of course not!"

Joan pushed the other woman away before striding to the bathroom.

She's being shy! Staring at Joan's petite figure, Jessica's smile widened.

If only you could see this, Larry.

After hanging out with Joan for a while, Jessica parted ways with the former.

Since she had achieved her goal of replaceing out what relationship Joan had with that man, she could now go back and report the matter back to Larry.

"See? You can rest assured now, stated Jessica as she gently patted Larry's shoulder.

"Thanks for your help, replied Larry flatly before walking toward his work desk. That's it? He's not even going to treat me to a meal?

"Hey, shouldn't you show some appreciation?" asked Jessica in amusement.

Hearing that, Larry turned his body toward her and stared at her in all seriousness.

"What do you mean?"
