Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2180
“Here comes the grapes! Took me a while to find them, but I did. Have a taste?” Having said that, Caspian gave her some of the grapes he had just rinsed clean.
The grapes looked so tantalizing, she was unable to resist.
Jessica popped one into her mouth and chewed thoughtfully before swallowing. “It’s big and sweet. A fine product.” She smiled contentedly at the taste.
“Fresh, right? Have some more!” said Caspian sweetly.
Ah, why is this a**hole being so nice to me all of a sudden? Does he have some kind of agenda? Jessica suddenly gave Caspian the once-over as if she was trying to discern something important.
“Say, what are you trying to pull here?” asked Jessica suspiciously.
Is she actually asking me this? Caspian was a little confused when he heard the question.
He just wanted to be nice to her, was that so wrong?
“Don’t overthink this, Jessica. He rarely does something like this. He spent the whole afternoon looking for grapes, which is quite out of character,” said Larry cautiously.
Caspian fidgeted with his collar, seemingly bashful.
Was is truly that simple? Jessica pouted.
Ever since that incident with Jessica, Caspian seemed to be more concerned about her. Larry was truly happy for Caspian upon seeing the interaction between them.
“Ms. Zimmer, have you ever considered Caspian?” asked Larry suddenly.
What the hell is this? What was there to consider? What can someone as uncouth as Caspian do for me, exactly?
“No,” replied Jessica curtly.
She was not sure what Larry even meant by “consideration,” nor had she the desire to find out.
