Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2532
âNo, no," she quickly denied.
âAre you free tonight? Let's grab dinner together.â
âI can't. I have stuff to do. Sorry.â With that, Joan strode forward.
Dustin is already giving me a hell of a headache. I want nothing to do with this man!
Meanwhile, Joan wasn't the only one facing the same problem.
"What the hell do you want?" Jessica snapped at the door.
âYou, of course,â Jasper replied with a grin.
âI don't like you!â Jessica yelled.
Jasper was unfazed. âIt doesn't matter as long as I like you.â
This guy is driving me crazy! How can such a shameless man exist in this world? Jessica turned
around and closed her eyes, drawing in a deep breath in an attempt to calm herself down.
âJasper, I will say this one more time. I already have someone I love!â
âThat's fine. I can wait for you. I'm going to prove to you that I'm better than that man by a
hundredfold.â
"Do whatever you want!â
With that, she slammed the door in his face. With a helpless and dejected look on his face, Jasper
remained standing on the same spot.
Jessica was the first woman he had fallen in love with, but fate was cruel because he appeared too
late.
Upon noticing Caspian hurrying over with breakfast in hand, Jasper asked coldly, âSo you're
Caspian?â
The other man stopped in his tracks and sized Jasper up and down, suspicion rising in him.
"Who are you? Do I know you?" he shot back.
âI'm Jasper, and I want a fair match against you,â Jasper replied flatly.
A match? What for? What's up with this guy? Caspian peered closer at the other manâs expression,
as though trying to figure him out.
Mm. I can see that he's a loyal and righteous man who places great value in relationships. Caspian
easily gleaned that information from the manâs eyes.
âI like Jessica,â Jasper admitted.
Suddenly, Caspianâs eyes lit up with realization. He's that guy from the other day who was asking for
directions!
"And?" Caspian questioned.
âAnd nothing. I just thought you should know and be prepared for what's coming,â Jasper answered
nonchalantly.
What a joke! What is there to prepare for? I'm confident that Jessica loves me and won't give this
guy the time of day!
âSure. I wish you the best.â With that, Caspian skirted around him and left.
There's nothing more to say. I know for a fact that Jessica will never dump me for him!
Jasper stood motionless with a murderous glint in his eyes.
âThere's someone looking for you at the door,â Caspian informed in a calm voice while placing
breakfast on the table.
âI know," Jessica replied cautiously.
âWhat are you going to do about it?â he probed.
âBy not doing anything.â Jessica knew that there was no need to explain the situation between
Jasper and her because Caspian would understand.
"Arenât you going to make things clear with him?â
âI have, but he just won't listen. What else can I do?â The house descended into an awkward
atmosphere.
Both of them ate their breakfast in silence and headed out for work soon after.
Although Caspian believed that Jessica's love for him was genuine, there were still times when he
feared that she would leave him.
"What's going on? You've been distracted the whole day,â Larry observed in a low voice and
questioned, âDid you and Jessica get into a fight?â
âNo,â Caspian answered with a crestfallen expression.
âSpill,â Larry ordered in a clipped tone.
âLarry, when Dustin pursued Joan back then, how did you feel?"
Larry looked up and smirked at him.
âJealous?â Larry arched a brow at him.
âNo, I'm not.â Caspianâ's denial came almost immediately.
Yeah, right. His expression says it all. Larry stood up and approached Caspian with a knowing look
on his face.
âWhat? Is someone is making advances on Jessica?â Larry asked.
