“Also, find out all the drunken girl’s information. I want to know everything about her.”
After leaving the nightclub, Joan helped Jessica sit down on a park bench. “Are you alright? Let’s just
rest for a bit here.”
“I don’t understand, why did you drink so much? It’s not like you need to wash down a heartbreak or
anything,” Joan murmured.
“Joan, I’m so sad. It hurts so bad.” Jessica revealed her true feelings all of a sudden and started
sobbing in Joan’s arm.
What on earth is happening? She was fine all day long, and now she just turned sorrow without any
warning sign?
Instead of pushing her for answers, Joanforted the weeping woman by patting softly on her back.
It was quite a while before Jessica managed to gather herself.
“Jessica, tell me what’s going on,” Joan said while holding onto Jessica’s hands.
“I’m okay. Just needed to blow off some steam that’s all.” Jessica sniffled and wiped off the tears on her
face.
“Silly woman, do I look like a three-year-old to you? You can tell me anything. Is Caspian mistreating
you? If yes, I’ll call him up right now—”
“No, Joan. It’s not him. It’s a rtive of mine. She called me up today and justshed out at me over
the phone. She said I was a shameless and ungrateful b*tch…” Jessica finally confided in Joan.
ording to Jessica, when her parents were still around, they had supported many of their rtives
financially. When they passed away and Jessica was in need of financial help to jump-start her
business, all the family members began avoiding her as though she was a contagious infection. It was
Larry who had helped her recover most of the debts from them. Many of her rtives started to hold
grudges against her ever since then.
“It’s okay, stop crying now. I’m sure they are just stuck in their own way that’s all,” Joan continued to
“They even cursed me and said they wanted me dead. But they are all my closest family members!”
Jessica’s voice choked up again.
Ironically, family bond is the strongest, yet most fragile rtionship in the world. Joan sighed helplessly.
Her heart ached at the sight of her friend in such distress.
“Jessica, listen to me, you have absolutely nothing to feel sorry for. There’s no way we can please
everyone, so what we can do is focus on doing the right thing. The truth will speak for itself,” Joan

spoke softly.
Joan could empathize with Jessica because she, too, had been deeply hurt by someone she trusted
most.
Someone Joan thought as her best friend had been backstabbing her at every possible turn. This evil
woman was none other than Gabrie Ward.
“Alright now, let’s give Caspian a call so he can take you home,” Joan suggested.
“No, I don’t want him to see me in this mess.”
Amused by Jessica’s reply, Joan let out a chuckle and helped her up to wave down a cab.
“Enlighten me, why don’t you talk to Caspian about how you feel? You may feel better after letting it
out.”
“His work burden is as heavy as it is without me piling on with my own problems,” Jessicained.
“That’s nonsense. I’m sure Caspian will lend an ear if you allow him.”
In the meantime, Caspian arrived at a hospital ward. “Larry, what happened to you?” he asked
anxiously. I had a bad feeling that something was off with him. Now I finally know why.
“It’splicated. I’ll let you know in a minute, but can you promise not to mention any of this to Joan?”
Larry said calmly.
Caspian had always been loyal to Larry and never disobeyed his order. Given Larry’s condition,
Caspian agreed that it would be a good idea to keep this from Joan and Jessica so they would not
worry about him.
“Here’s your meatloaf,” said a well-dressed woman who just walked into the ward.
Caspian looked quizzically at the beautiful woman in great figure.
“Who’s this? Aren’t you going to introduce us?” De looked at Caspian and then turned to Larry.
