“I see,” Joan replied.

Larry could sense Joan's sadness and helplessness over the phone, and he instantly felt guilty.

“How are you today? Are you unhappy?” Larry asked directly.

“Nope, I'm fine. By the way, I have some good news to share with you. Caspian and Jessica are dating! But they are keeping it as a secret for now,” Joan said excitedly.

Hearing that, Larry was still as composed as ever. After all, he had guessed that Jessica would end up with Caspian sooner or later.

“Do you miss me?” Larry blurted suddenly.

Joan froze, not knowing what she ought to reply.

“I do, but you have to finish your work first before coming home,” Joan replied hurriedly.

Larry was greatly comforted by her answer, and his lips curled into a grin. She truly understands me!

“Sure, I'll be right back once I've finished everything,” Larry replied.

They chatted for a little longer before ending the call. As Joan gazed at the crescent moon from the window, her mind wandered into deep thoughts.

Why does this kid know everything? Joan took the boy into her arms, tapped on his forehead lightly, and smiled.
