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.
