Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2856
“Joan, are you alright? Do you feel better now? Should I get a doctor over?”
“No, there’s no need for that, Jake. I’ll be fine after I’ve rested,” replied Joan as she wiped the sweat off of her forehead.
Has she not fully recovered? Jake’s gaze slowly turned less lively.
Ring! Ring!
“Hi, Mr. Wilson. Jessica and Abelyn have discovered your trick,” reported Jake’s assistant carefully.
Huh… so they’re not total idiots. Jake massaged his neck and grinned amusingly.
“They have left and seem to be checking out different wedding studios. I’m not sure which studio they’d be heading to, though. It looks they have not decided which wedding studio to go to yet,” added the assistant.
Where else would they go? They’re definitely going to the more luxurious places! Jake narrowed his eyes a little as he looked out the window. He was secretly pleased.
Joan was sitting at the side and scrutinizing his expression to try to figure out what was going on. Unfortunately, Jake was too vigilant, and Joan couldn’t read anything out of him.
Jake hung up soon after. He turned around, walked to the sofa and asked, “We’ve already finished shooting the wedding photos, so let’s head home, okay?”
“Okay,” replied Joan before she nodded. Still, she didn’t understand why she was a little scared when she saw how calm Jake looked.
On the other side of town, Jessica and Abelyn were running around and looking for Joan in different, luxurious wedding studios. The two ladies looked exhausted by then.
“Jessica, could it be that you made a mistake? Maybe she hasn’t returned to the country yet,” said Abelyn as she panted with her hands on her waist.
Did I really make a mistake? Jessica suddenly started questioning herself.
“Huh? Hey, Ms. Zimmers. Hi, Ms. Chipman,” greeted Jake as he walked over to them. He looked mischievous at that moment.
“Why are the two of you so upset? What happened?” asked Caspian as he hurried over. He massaged Jessica’s head for her and sounded worried when he spoke.
What else could have happened? This is all because of that j*rk, Jake! Abelyn turned around and sighed sadly. She looked extremely helpless.
“We were tailing Jake…” replied Jessica sadly.
Ah, so that’s what it is, thought Caspian. He was a little heartbroken when he looked at the woman he loved.
“Don’t waste your energy and time like that again. Just leave these things to men like us,” advised Caspian sweetly while knocking lightly on her head.
There was no difference between a man and a woman as far as Jessica was concerned, though. Besides, Joan is my bff. I can’t just sit idly by.
“Abelyn? What got you in this shape? Did someone bully you?” asked Dustin before he rushed to her side.
