Caspian winked at her. Then, he took the heat off her by saying, “Oh, Larry, she didn’t mean it. She missed you a lot, and she’s too excited.”

Without even sparing a glance at them, Larry uttered, “Don’t you speak up for her! As a career woman, she should always maintain her composure and know the business etiquette.”

Jessica quickly explained, “Oh, Larry, I’m here not as a career woman but as your dear sister.”

The man sitting behind the desk asked, “Then why are you here?”

Jessica made her way toward Larry and wrapped her arms around his neck. “Well, I’m here to see you. It’s been a long time since we last saw each other. Don’t you miss me?”

Larry had gotten used to the closeness with Jessica. To them, it was a way of showing affection between family. As for Caspian, although he knew there was nothing between Jessica and Larry, he couldn’t help feeling uncomfortable seeing their intimacy.

“How long are you still going to cling to Larry? He’s taken. Hmph! You’ve never hugged me for so long before,” Caspian mumbled with a hint of jealousy.

Jessica asked seriously, “Larry, am I not your woman?”

Just then, a familiar voice rang out, “Of course you’re not!” The voice made Caspian shudder.

Oh no! She’s here sooner than I thought!

Instantly, he pulled Jessica away from Larry and dragged her toward the door. “Jessica, quick! Leave now! Don’t cause any trouble!”

“What are you talking about? I didn’t cause any trouble, and I’m not going anywhere. I want to catch up with Larry.” Jessica struggled to break free from Caspian’s grip.

Caspian could feel his temple throbbing. Oh, Jessica, now it’s not the time to catch up with Larry. Can’t you sense Della’s hostility? I’m sure you wouldn’t want to mess with her.

“There is no need for you to catch up with Larry,” Della said coldly while gazing at Jessica.

How impudence! Who the hell is this woman? Jessica walked toward Della and sized the latter up and down, the curiosity in her eyes barely veiled.
