Chapter 2998"I know Jessica had always been fond of you, and that is why she always look you up at Norton
Corporation.But what happened between the two of you in the office that day...I am really devastated,
Larry"
Finally, Larry realized what he was talking about.This jerk misread the situation again! Larry closed his
eyes and took a deep breath to calm himself.
"First of all, Caspian, I see Jessica as a sister and she regards me as a brother.Due to some
unforeseen circumstances, we had to sleep in the office that night.Nothing happened between us, and
Jessica can vouch for that as well.We did not do anything scandalous behind your back.Moreover, I will
never betray Joan."
Larry left Caspian with no room for doubt.
Caspian could see Larry spoke with sincerity, and he instantly felt remorseful.Yes, he had always been
righteous and would never resort to such dirty moves.Maybe I read too much into it...
Caspian bowed his head in embarrassment.
But that colleague said...
He was not totally convinced It was as if Larry could read his mind, for he added, "The staff that stayed
late in the office that day saw Jessica and I lay on the sofa in the office and made a big fuss over it.If
you don't believe me, you can go back to her and asked her if she saw me doing anything to Jessica"
"No! I believe you, Larry! I was blinded by jealousy and could not think straight? “ Caspian answered.Yes, you did not think straight.As a result, you drank yourself silly and got into this mess!This is going
to be a bloody troublesome mess. Larry looked at Caspian with sympathy.He knew his buddy was a
man who could be depended on, so he would not run away from his trouble.
Unfortunately, Jessica would be the one to get hurt, as he took responsibility for what he did to the
other woman.
"Are you sure that you had sex with that young woman? Could it be a set-up?" Larry cautiously tried to
jog his memory.
"If you are so wasted, how could you possibly manage to do that?" Larry glanced at him and reminded.
Caspian had the same doubt.
However, he could not discount this other possibility that he was so drunk, he could not remember what
he did.
"There was a bloodstain on the bedsheet" Caspian muttered.
There was awkwardness in the air.
Larry cleared his throat and drove off with Caspian.
Both men did not utter another word for a while.
noveldrama"So, what are your plans? Give the madam the money, and keep the young woman by your side?"
Larry curiously asked.
"Yup.That madam said she wanted compensation, so I have to give her that.As for the young woman, I
want to send her home’’ Larry could only manage a forced smile.
He had a nagging feeling that things would not go as Caspian had planned."How about letting me meet that young woman?"
Larry quietly suggested.
Huh?Why did he want to meet her? Caspian looked puzzledly at Larry.
"Why? Are you reluctant?" Larry countered.
He felt he should at least meet the other party before making any judgment.
Moreover, Caspian had never been a meticulous guy.He may overlook many issues, which Larry felt
were important to look into.
"No, not that.I will hand the money to the madam then meet you again."
"No way!" Larry cut him short.
"Let me meet her first.I will get Joan to join us.After the meeting, you can proceed to hand over the
money, and we can take the young woman away immediately."
Some subjects were easier to discuss between women, so Larry wanted to ask Joan to go along.
Caspian also thought that was a good idea, although he could not figure out why Larry would insist on
meeting the young woman.
After a quick discussion, Larry and Caspian, together with Joan, went to a cafe near the brothel.
