    Who knows what was in her head? She ran off like a mad man early in the morning as if I was a


    monster out to devour her...


    Larry continued working, but Caspian was preupied with thoughts about Jessica.


    In the end, he decided to ask an employee.


    "Did something happen to Jessica?" Caspian questioned.


    The female employee peeked at Larry with a conflicted expression.


    "Spit it out!"


    Caspian''s temper sparked at her hesitation.


    "Don''t be mad.It''s just that when I came in, I saw Mr.Norton and Ms.Zimmer sleeping together’ the


    female employee whispered.What?Larry and Jessica slept together? Caspian was thunderstruck at the


    news.


    His mind was all over the ce as he tried to discern what happened between Larry and Jessica.


    Jessica was panic-stricken, but why is Larry so calm andposed? Caspian felt betrayed as he


    nced at Larry working in the office.


    Caspian lowered his head and scratched it, at a loss for what to do.


    To think that I believed their rtionship was merely that of siblings, but now they''re sleeping together!


    No wonder she has been working overtime anding to the office so frequently.It was all to meet


    Larry and not me.


    Caspian furiously mmed his palm on the table, scaring the employees.


    "Maybe they were merely resting in the office, and nothing happened between them" the employee


    added instantly.


    How is that possible when a man and a woman are alone in a room? Moreover, Jessica used to admire


    Larry.But he should have been better than this.


    What has gotten into him?How could he spend the night with her? Caspian sighed and left, not


    knowing how to face Larry. If it were someone else, he would have punched that person in the face, but


    that person was Larry, who was like a brother to Caspian.


    Has been Larry secretly harboring feelings for Jessica ail this while? A sorrowful expression crossed


    Caspian''s face.


    After a long while, he took out his phone and dialed Jessica''s number.


    "I need to talk to you." He sounded serious.


    On the other side of the call, Jessica was on pins and needles.


    "I have something that I have to deal with at the moment, so now is not a good time.In fact, I''m going to


    be quite busy for the next few days."


    Jessica tried to give him an excuse because she didn''t know how to exin it to him.


    More importantly, she didn''t know if he would believe her exnation.


    "No! I have to talk to you today!" Caspian yelled in exasperation.


    Shit! He must have heard something.


    Otherwise, he wouldn''t be this mad.


    "Alright.I''ll be back home early today."


    Jessica hung up the phone and sighed.It seemed she would have to be mentally prepared for the


    uing talk.


    Soon, night arrived.


    Jessica left the bookstore and drove home in silence.


    What does Caspian want to talk to me about? Jessica''s eyes were clouded with sadness.


    Ring! Ring!


    "Jessica,e here immediately. I need your help on something" Larry asked with a low voice.


    "Larry, I have something else to do today, so I can''t go” Jessica replied.


    "It''s urgent, so get here immediately!" Larry ended the call in a hurry.


    This stupid Larry always gets in my way at crucial moments.


    Jessica turned her car around and drove toward Norton Corporation.


    At that moment, Caspian sat waiting for Jessica on the couch in the living room, oblivious to the fact


    that she wouldn''t be back that night.
