Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2396

Jessica got drunk last night and went to the washroom in the dark. She ended up tripping and fell to the ground. If it were not for Caspian’s timely arrival, there was a high chance that she would still be lying on the floor.

“You should check on her more often. She’s a girl after all.”

“Am I not showing enough care for her? Larry, do you know that she’s the one torturing me every day?” Caspian was having none of it.

Jessica had been making things difficult for him of late, and he was emotionally exhausted by it.

“Aren’t all women like that? She’s just trying to get your eyes on her.” Is that so? She could’ve just told me, though!

“Mr. Norton, here is the document that you have requested!” The assistant came in.

“Leave it there,” Larry ordered without raising his head.

“Women are very fickle animals,” Caspian remarked.

“Just go to the hospital and send her my regards. I don’t think I’ll be able to head over. Things are getting busier recently.”

Hearing that, Caspian instantly turned around and left the office.

“Where’s Larry?” Jessica asked directly. “Why doesn’t he come to visit me?”

“Larry’s really busy, so he asked me to come in and check on you,” Caspian explained as he placed the fruit basket on the table.

“How could he do this to me? I am hospitalized, for goodness sake! But is he busy?” Jessica pouted as she was discontent with Caspian’s explanation.

“Stop it already. It’s not that serious. You don’t even have a broken rib nor a fractured leg.” Caspian was very blunt.

Can’t you be a tad bit more thoughtful? You je*k! Jessica stared at Caspian without saying a word.

“So, how was it?” Jaden asked when he saw Caiden.

Truth be told, he knew about Yelena and how Olivia wanted Caiden to marry her from the start. From the outside, it might have looked like he was not on his sister’s side, seeing that he was pushing Caiden towards Yelena. But the fact was that Jaden knew Noelle and Caiden would not work out and that the Owens family was way out of Noelle’s league.

“Did you know that Yelena was going to be there?” Caiden questioned.

“Yes, I knew, Mr. Caiden Owens. Your mother asked me to convince you for your own good. What happens next is all up to the two of you to decide.”

Jaden sighed. He was certain that Caiden only had Joan on his mind, so he knew that Yelena being there made would make no difference. Caiden would never pay her any heed.

“You knew that I love Joan, so why did you do something like that?” Caiden continued.

“Does it matter? If you really love Joan, things won’t change no matter how many ladies you meet,” Jaden answered.

He was absolutely right. Love was never such a fickle matter.

“Don’t you ever do anything like this again. I hate it… “

Caiden’s remark instantly softened Jaden’s heart.

Throughout the years, Caiden only had Noelle and Jaden by his side. He knew how Noelle felt about him, so he naturally put some distance between them. Jaden, however, was like a brother to him at this point.

“Caiden, you shouldn’t be afraid of going for those blind dates. Nothing will happen even if you go since love is not something one can force. So you might as well treat it as putting up with your parents.”

He really knows his way around both parties. Caiden gave him a side-eye glare and said nothing.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

It’s definitely not Noelle since she just left. Who could it be then? Both Caiden and Jaden looked towards the door alarmingly, bewildered.

“Is Caiden here?”

It was the sweet voice of a lady at the door. That voice was captivating enough that it made Jaden’s heart raced for a bit.

“Who’s looking for you?” Jaden asked.

“I think that’s Yelena. Let me hide in the room, and you just tell her that I’m not here!” Caiden turned tail towards the stairs.

“No, don’t you do this to me!” Jaden caught his arm just in time. “This is your problem, so you handle it. I’m not getting involved.”
