Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2397
“Come on, man. I think Yelena is actually quite beautiful. Her figure is superb, and she even has a nice personality. She’s definitely up your alley.” Caiden remarked as he flung Jaden’s hand off, hurrying upstairs.
Seriously? I’ll have to take a look then.
“Hi there. Caiden’s not here right now,” Jaden said while he opened the door. As soon as he did, he froze in place.
The woman in front of Jaden emanated a noble elegance—an exquisite face, pearly white skin, and hair as dark as night with a model-like figure. This is definitely up my alley!
“Hello,” she greeted him with a smile.
“Hi! Come in and have a seat.” he quickly welcomed her in. Yelena looked around and walked in bashfully.
“You’re here looking for Owens, right?”
“Yes, is he not here?” Yelena look towards the second floor.
“Sorry to say. He had something going on today, so he’s not here.”
“Do you know when he will be back?” she probed.
“I’m not sure about that. He’s usually quite busy. Can I know why you’re looking for him?” Jaden asked in return.
“I just got back from abroad and was wondering whether he could show me around.” Yelena lowered her head, blushing.
I see! Jaden looked at her and his lips slowly curled into a grin.
Maybe I should do that instead?
“Never mind him then. I can give you the tour too.” Jaden spoke softly.
“Huh?” Yelena looked doubtfully at the man before her with an odd look on her face.
“It’s okay if you don’t feel like it,” Jaden immediately added.
“That’s not it. I’m just worried that I might be taking up your time,” Yelena replied awkwardly.
He was Caiden’s friend, after all. She did not want to get on his bad side.
That was why Larry was very confident, even after hearing the so-called surprise. He was certain that Joan would definitely choose him.
“Hello? What do you have in mind?” Larry asked through the phone.
Caiden, on the other end of the call, instinctively knew what he was talking about. He grinned as though he was amused by the chemistry they had.
“I have rejected it.” I knew it. Larry smiled as Caiden’s answer reassured him even further.
“Why would I marry someone and let you have Joan so easily?” Caiden added.
“I thought you were about to give up,” Larry said deliberately.
That’s impossible! I’d never hand over a girl I like as easy as that! Caiden gritted his teeth, upset with Larry’s statement.
“Alright then, that’s all. I just wanted to know whether you gave in.” With that, Larry ended the call. He got his answer.
“Where did Caiden go? It’s already this late. He should be back by now, right?” Yelena asked anxiously.
