Chapter 281
“Hey! Let go of me! You idiot!” Lucy was embarrassed and annoyed.
She kept struggling to break free.
Lucy never had such close contact with the opposite gender before, and she wanted to escape.
However, Caspian’s arm was as if it was made of steel, and no matter how she twisted and turned, Lucy could not move his hand away.
After some time, Lucy’s face was as red as a beetroot, and her whole body was limp as she ran out of energy.
In the end, only her pair of slender legs kicked weakly.
“Hah! You scolded me for being an idiot and even tried to stab me, yet you want me to let you go?” Caspian snorted.
Then, he looked at the pouting little girl and asked, “Where’s Jessica?”
At that time, Caspian finally could not hold back anymore.
When he saw Lucy, Caspian wanted to ask, “Didn’t you follow Jessica to the Dark Moon Sect? Why are you suddenly here? Didn’t Jessica follow you?”
Caspian knew well of Lucy’s rascal spirit underneath her petite and charming appearance.
If she were unconvinced, Lucy would not entertain the person at all.
Hence, Caspian only asked that after stopping Lucy.
Lucy weakly snorted twice, then she helplessly answered, “I’ll answer you after you put me down.”
Lucy did not have any energy to struggle anymore.
She could not explain why she could not move even the slightest bit as she was being clamped under Caspian’s underarm.
After all, she was a self-proclaimed abnormally strong girl, yet her body was all limp now.
“I’ll put you down after you answer me,” Caspian replied lightly.
“Put me down first!”
“Only if you answer me!”
None of them wanted to compromise, and they stared at each other.
“Idiot! You forced me to do this!” Lucy glared at Caspian and suddenly took a deep breath in.
Then, she screamed at the top of her lungs, “Lady Jessica! Help me! Casper’s touching me inappropriately!”
Soon, the dense leaves around them seemed to be blown by a gust of wind, making a rustling sound.
“Why the hell are you shouting? I saw everything.” The next second, a familiar voice sounded from behind a big tree not far away from them.
Then, Jessica walked out, looking at her toes.
She was dressed in white, and her expression seemed to be somewhat gloomy as she said in annoyance, “You’ve been chattering nonstop, and it’s noisy.”
“Jessica…” Caspian was stunned, and the hand clamping Lucy suddenly relaxed.
Lucy took the chance to escape and pinch Caspian’s arm in resentment.
However, she also seemed to be afraid of Caspian seeking revenge, and she swiftly bolted toward Jessica.
As she ran, she exclaimed, “Lady Jessica, you’re so mean! You saw idiot Casper bullying me, yet you didn’t even come to my rescue.”
“You still have the nerve to say that? You sneaked an attack at him first.” Jessica rolled her eyes at Lucy, but she was still too timid to look at Caspian.
Before she came here and on the way over, her longing for Caspian seemed to be like a brewing volcano, and she could not control it at all.
However, when Jessica finally met Caspian, she suddenly did not know what to say.
‘I miss you, so I’m here to visit you…’
What a joke! How could a girl say something like that?
‘I ran out of supplies and coincidentally passed by here…’
Well… No one was foolish enough to believe that.
‘I’m here to pass a letter for my Master.
I didn’t expect to meet you here.
What a coincidence…’
Suddenly, Jessica’s eyes lit up.
Yes! She should have said that she met him by accident, so he should not think that she paid much attention to him.
Just as Jessica wanted to say something, she heard Caspian asking, “When did you come?”
“I…” Jessica just uttered one word.
The next second, Caspian added, “I miss you.”
Boom!
Jessica felt as if there was an explosion in her head, and her mind went blank.
Joy, sweetness, bashfulness, confusion, anger, and such emotions suddenly burst into colorful fireworks in her heart.
She was caught off guard that she did not know how to respond.
Lucy noticed all the changes in Jessica’s eyes, and she became as anxious as a cat on a hot tin roof.
‘This is bad! Idiot Casper isn’t dumb at all! He directly used a fatal skill and stunned Lady Jessica.
What should I do? If Lady Jessica doesn’t completely fall head over heels for Casper this time, then pigs can fly! Lady Jessica, wake up! Didn’t you say we should reject others, be aloof, and never surrender!’
Just as Jessica was still in a daze, Caspian already walked toward her.
Jessica changed her appearance when they were in St.
Jade Chamber, and Caspian never saw her true self.
In the Lawrence family gymnasium, Jessica stood in front of him to protect him, but Caspian only saw her slender and straight back.
In the forest during the Evergreen Town competition, Jessica thought she was in a dangerous situation, and she showed unprecedented willpower.
In other words, Caspian never truly saw Jessica in life, and he finally did now.
Jessica was dressed in white from top to bottom, and due to her shyness, her cheeks were colored with a faint pink.
She had supple skin, delicate features, and she was equally charming and adorable.
Then, Caspian held his breath and gently held Jessica’s hand.
When Lucy saw that, her eyes opened wide.
‘Skin to skin contact?! Lady Jessica is going to get pregnant soon!’
If Jessica found out about Lucy’s thoughts, she would surely pinch Lucy’s cheeks hard.
Unfortunately, Jessica’s head was still buzzing, and she was unaware of anything.
After pulling Jessica’s small and tender hand, Caspian said softly, ”Since you’re here, why don’t you accompany me for a walk? I miss you…”
Caspian mentioned he missed her again?
Jessica was dumbfounded, and she let Caspian lead her through the pathway in the forest and leisurely walked forward as he held her hand.
Lucy stood at her original spot and watched the two walk away.
She did not know whether to follow them or just stay where she was.
In the end, Lucy stomped her foot heavily and trailed far behind them, maintaining a distance of about 100 meters.
That way, Lucy would know where they were and could also monitor if Caspian did anything impolite to Jessica. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
At the same time, she would not disturb their alone time either.
Once Jessica returned to her senses, she noticed Caspian was already holding her hand tightly.
After hesitating for a while, Jessica did not break free from his grip.
Instead, she slowly released her fingers and locked her hand with his.
Since Jessica was sure of him, there was no reason to go against her heart.
As Jessica felt Caspian’s body temperature and listened to him describe what happened in the past few months, she felt a rush of sweetness in her heart, and she wished that time would slow down.
There was a lake at the end of the trail.
Then, Caspian pointed at a boulder at the side of the water and said, “Why don’t we sit on top of that rock? The view from there is breathtaking.”
“Okay!” Jessica answered without hesitation, nodding and smiling at the same time.
Her sincere smile was brighter than the sun and even more beautiful than the flowers, and Caspian could not help but stare at her for a while.
Later, Caspian chuckled and said, ”I’ve read your letters a few times, but since you’re here, I still want to hear you tell me about it personally as you sit by my side.”
