Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1271
As they neared, they saw Helen standing very close to Jason. Helen was not a familiar face to them. Therefore, they were curious. Could it be that this was Jason’s new girlfriend?
Helen wasn’t at all concerned about the gazes that were fixed on her. Instead, she took a step forward and announced, “Hello everyone, please don’t misunderstand. I am Helen, Fabian’s sister-in-law.”
These people seemed to be well-acquainted with Jason, who was quite close with Fabian. Therefore logically speaking, they should also know Fabian.
“Oh, I see. I thought you were Jason’s girlfriend.” One of them said with a laugh.
“I…”
Jason was about to say something, but he was instantly interrupted by Helen. She quickly clarified, “How could that be possible? If I were looking for a boyfriend, I wouldn’t look for someone like him. He’s terrible.”
Upon hearing Helen’s harsh comment, Jason’s face soured considerably. It was obvious that he was quite offended.
I haven’t even said anything, but you publicly express your disdain for me? No matter how you look at it, I have both brains and brawns. How am I not good enough for you?
“Hahaha, that’s quite true,” The youngsters teased and laughed heartily.
They found Jason’s predicament funny.
“What’s so funny? Just get inside, all of you! I’ll wait for Fabian here. Stop bothering me!”
Jason retorted with impatience, clearly disgruntled.
The youngsters waved their hands and went away tactfully. They left Fabian and Helen standing awkwardly in their respective spots.
“What’s the matter? You can’t even let me speak the truth?”
Helen asked in a challenging tone after everybody had left.
“Hmph! Do you think what they said can be taken seriously? They don’t even know you. They were just replying out of courtesy. And you lapped it all up!” Jason complained out of dissatisfaction.
