Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2260
What would he know? It was obviously an impulsive decision Jessica made when she was drunk.
“Alright, we’ll talk later. I need to look for Joan now. I’ll explain to you soon.” Larry left immediately after he was done.
However, Caspian didn’t need his explanation. All he wanted to know were Jessica’s intentions.
After some time, the woman slowly made her way into the ward, feeling a little awkward.
Should I explain myself? I must’ve gone crazy yesterday. How could I do such a shameless thing?
She had already decided to give up on Larry, but she ended up kissing him when she was drunk. How am I supposed to tell Caspian about this?
“Um, I know that you like grapefruit, so I bought some for you, Caspian,” she said softly.
What is she doing here?
He turned away from her and looked out the window, his eyes filled with disappointment.
At that moment, Caspian didn’t wish to see her. Overwhelmed with confusion, all he wanted to do was contemplate his next move in solitude. Should I continue working for Larry or go for something different?
“What’s wrong, Caspian? Are you feeling unwell?” Jessica asked.
Yes. I am unwell. My heart’s broken, but can you even mend it?
The man sneered as he replied coldly, “It’s nothing. I’m fine.”
It was the first time Jessica witnessed him acting like this. For some unknown reason, she was disheartened to see him in such a sullen state.
“Um… What happened between Larry and me was really just an accident. Please don’t misunderstand,” the woman murmured.
Is that any of my business? Whether they are just friends or lovers, none of that is important to me anymore.
Caspian said nothing as he stared out the window.
“Please say something, Caspian. It’s making me feel terrible,” she said suddenly.
The man blinked before he quickly turned around to look at her. Instantly, he noticed the sadness in her eyes.
“I want to eat the grapefruits,” he said after a moment.
