Chapter 2999

"Hello, Larry and Joan! Nice meeting you! I'm Lisa."

The young woman greeted the couple.

Caspian smiled, pleased that she was polite and well-mannered.

Larry and Joan silently scrutinized her.

"You are quite capable, aren't you? You have managed to seduce my buddy in such a short time." Larry was out to spite her.

"No, Larry. I can swear I am sincere with Caspian" she protested softly, raising her hand to make the swearing sign.

Larry took a sip of his tea and calmly assessed the young woman. She looked like a materialistic woman, but she did not seem to be the scheming type of woman.

Larry and Joan's indifference made Caspian very anxious. He was worried they would make things difficult for Lisa, but his biggest fear was that they would tell Jessica about this. He was hoping he could settle this matter behind Jessica's back.

"And? What are you trying to hint at? That you will marry Caspian and bear him children?" Joan probed coldly.

Lisa fell silent.

In the beginning, she was not attracted to Caspian.

However, she was touched when she observed what he went through for her.

"Yes, I can do that!" she affirmed.

"What are you saying? I don't need that!" Caspian nudged her on her arm and clarified.

"No! You have saved my life, Caspian. I want to serve you for the rest of my life."

She promised and gave him a tight hug.

Caspian was stunned and immediately pushed her away. He could not let Jessica down again.

"What are you afraid of, Caspian? We have already slept together. If someday, I am pregnant with your child..."

No way! She cannot bear my child! Caspian was dumbstruck.

"Abort it!" Joan was direct.

She could read Caspian's mind.

He borrowed money to 'save' this woman which was out of kindness and guilt. But Joan would never let Lisa take further advantage of Caspian.

"But Joan, this is our flesh and blood!" Lisa whined.

"No one can be sure who is the father of the baby yet" Joan retorted bluntly.

I replace it hard to believe a woman in a brothel is pure and innocent.

So what if there was bloodstain? That would not necessary mean that she was a virgin. How gullible of you, Caspian. Just a few drop of tears and you are at her beck and call. Joan had to take a sip of tea to calm herself.

"Joan, Caspian is my only man.It is true. You can check with my friends if you don't believe me"

There was no way Joan would fall for that! Joan was furious and regarded her with contempt.

From the first impression, it was obvious this was a shrewd young woman.

Men always fell for gentle, kind, and innocent women.

Deep in her heart, Joan already knew Caspian would blindly accept whatever Lisa said if she started acting piteous.

"That's enough. Let me make it clear to you. We will hand the compensation money to your madam and buy you freedom. However, that is on one condition, that you will leave Caspian alone from now on.If you disagree, we will take back this money" Joan threatened.

She needed to let Lisa know who has the upper hand.

"No, Joan.I can't leave Caspian.I cannot live without him!"

Lisa was quick to protest.

Oh my! She is resorting to emotional blackmail? Joan stared at Lisa with disdain.

She loathed hypocrisy and had always hated those women who put on false pretense to manipulate men.

Larry sat by the side, watching the ladies quietly. He understood Joan felt terrible as Jessica was her good friend.
