239: Chapter 241 Taking Care of Helen Wilson 239: Chapter 241 Taking Care of Helen Wilson Jas didn’t dodge the responsibility either.
He’s pretty good friends with Joan, and he couldn’t just stand by when a friend needed help.
Especially when this favor was quite titillating.
Whenever he was with Gina Lopez, Emily Lopez, and Sarah Utah, he always held so reservations, worried that they might take the fun too far and he wouldn’t be able to handle it.
But it was different with Joan.
Although she no longer looked down on him like before, she clearly didn’t have those kinds of feelings for him.
At best, they were just friends who could talk, and emotionally, Joan still despised him a lot.
So no matter what happened with Joan, Jas wasn’t worried that she would cling to him.
Just then, Joan’s phone rang.
Upon seeing the number, she whispered to Jas, “It’s my mom’s call.
She’s been calling every day for the past few days, and she even wanted you to listen in, but we’ve never caught you available, and it’s starting to drive crazy.”
Jas chuckled, “Then it’s perfect to have a chat today and help you maintain the lie.”
Joan nodded and then answered the call.
After a few words, she handed the phone to Jas, saying, “Jas, my mom wants to talk to you.”
Taking the phone, Jas politely greeted her, then started chatting with Joan’s mother.
Appeasing the elderly was sothing Jas was quite adept at.
At this mont, he spoke sweetly and engagingly, making Joan’s mother very happy.
Of course, when it ca to specifics like buying a house, Jas was consistent with Joan’s version, saying they were still looking.
As for the marriage certificate, he claid they hadn’t obtained it due to an urgent business trip he had had a few days ago, but they would pick an auspicious day soon to get it.
“Jas, you guys have a computer, right?
Let’s talk over video, it’ll save so phone charges.”
Jas quickly agreed, “Sure, I’ll go start the computer right now.”
After ending the call, Joan frowned and said, “Why did you agree to video call with my mom?”
“What choice did I have?” Jas retorted to Joan.
With a pained expression, Joan said, “But I’m injured right now.
If my mom sees this, she will definitely co over, and then we’ll really be in trouble.”
Jas grinned slyly and assured, “No worries, I’ll make sure she doesn’t notice anything.”
“How are you going to manage that?”
Jas leaned in and whispered sothing into Joan’s ear, causing her to glare fiercely at him.
However, she soon resignedly said, “Then you better get ready quickly.”
Jas laughed heartedly and hurriedly ran to the bedroom to retrieve Joan’s laptop.
After booting it up, he picked up Joan and made her sit half on his lap, his legs opened to keep her injured part from touching the wound, making her extrely embarrassed.
“I warn you, no funny business,” Joan said to Jas, feeling weak all over as this was her first ti being so intimate with a man, especially with her lower body undressed, which added to the ambiguity.
Jas gave a wry smile, “Given your state, how could I possibly do anything bad?
How beastly do you think I am?”
“You’re already quite beastly,” Joan shot a glance at Jas but felt slightly more relaxed, rembering how she once got drunk and stayed at Jas’s house, and he hadn’t done anything inappropriate to her.
She believed he wouldn’t do anything now either.
“Alright, let’s talk about whether I’m a beast or not later.
Shouldn’t you log onto QQ now?
Your mom must be getting worried.”
Joan then took the laptop, logged onto QQ, and imdiately received a video call invitation.
With a glance at Jas, she gritted her teeth and answered the call.
“What are you guys doing?” appeared Joan’s parents on the screen, her father standing behind while her mother sat in front of the computer, her face filled with astonishnt.
Blushing, Joan said, “It’s nothing, was it you who insisted on video calling?”
Her mother, sowhat amused yet exasperated, noticed the towel wrapped around her daughter, clearly indicating the young couple had just been intimate.
She then said, “Okay, okay, we can chat another ti.
You young people, really.”
Joan, despite being shy, quickly seized the mont to say, “It’s alright, mom, I still need to update you on our progress with house hunting.”
“Now’s not the ti, enough, go do what you need to, and we’ll co over to see the house when you’ve picked one.”
“Alright then.”
As Joan finished speaking, the other party had already ended the video call.
Her parents were a bit overwheld by how young people showed affection, they knew too much.
But clearly, they understood Joan and Jas were very close.
Joan breathed a sigh of relief, shut down the computer, and turned to Jas, asking, “Haven’t you held long enough?”
Jas imdiately protested, “I’m just trying to help, okay?”
“Humph, just you?
Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking.
The first ti I saw you, you played weak to take advantage of , and I haven’t settled that score with you yet.”
Jas suddenly felt guilty, smiling bitterly, “We agreed to let bygones be bygones, didn’t we?
You can’t just change your mind after crossing the river.”
Joan snorted, “I might not ntion it, but the image I have of you in my mind isn’t going anywhere.
So naturally, I think you’re just trying to take advantage of .”
“Yet you still let ?
Are you silly?
Haha… I get it, you must have fallen for , letting take advantage deliberately.”
“Go die!” Joan fiercely bit towards Jas Brown’s shoulder.
Jas Brown, already prepared, quickly blocked her forehead with his hand, and said grinning, “Don’t be fierce, I was just kidding.”
“If you dare to make such jokes again, I’ll bite you to death.” Joan gritted her teeth and threatened Jas, but at this mont, she was relying on him to take care of her and didn’t dare to do much to him.
It was already getting dark.
Jas Brown said to Joan, “It’s getting late, you should rest early.
I’m going to head back.”
“Go on, go on, I was tired of you anyway.” Joan waved her hand.
Jas chuckled, picked up Joan, and walked toward the bedroom.
“What are you doing?” Joan scread in fright.
“What else could I do in the bedroom?
Go to bed of course.” Jas replied cheerfully.
This ti Joan wasn’t annoyed.
She just gave Jas a disdainful look and said, “You really can’t spit anything good from a dog’s mouth.
If you speak nicely, I might even thank you, but with what you just said, I can only despise you.”
“Despise then, I’m used to your contempt.
Without it, I couldn’t stand it.”
When Jas was with Joan, he loved to spout nonsense like this, making this policewoman furious, and he found a lot of joy in it.
After placing Joan on the bed, Jas turned to leave but hesitated and said, “Are you sure you’ll be okay alone after I leave?”
“What’s not okay with ?
It’s just a small injury, just a scratch.
Don’t see as so fragile, rember, I’m still a cop.”
“It’s exactly because I’m afraid you’ll overdo it that I’m worried.” Jas shook his head, “Alright, alright, I’ll stay a bit longer and take care of you, madam, for a few more minutes.”
“Who needs your care?
I’m not crippled.”
“You need to be able to use your limbs for that.
You still have a butt; show you can sit down now.”
“You…” Joan was choked up.
“Haha… Just rest, I’ll clean up the bathroom first.
Otherwise, if you hurt the other half of your butt later, although it would be balanced, you won’t be able to move even more.”
“It’s you who will hurt the other half of your butt.”
“If I hurt the other half, then we would be a perfect match, haha…”
“Get lost!”
Jas laughed and went to the bathroom to clean up the broken glass on the floor, then threw a towel to Joan.
Joan was quite satisfied with Jas’ care and was grateful for his attentiveness, but if it were soone else, Joan would certainly say so polite words.
However, with Jas, she never spoke nicely, “The towel is so cold, you need to fix that.”
Jas imdiately nodded in agreent, “I’ll correct it next ti, I’ll heat it up next ti so hot it could singe pig hairs.”
“You’re the pig.” Joan felt very frustrated.
Every ti she quarreled with Jas, she lost; this guy was simply her nesis.
“By the way, do you need to use the bathroom again?” Jas asked again.
“No need!” Joan answered imdiately without hesitation.
“If you don’t need to, then I’m leaving.
Rember to sleep face-down tonight so that you can scab over and at least do so light activities tomorrow.” After saying that, Jas turned and walked towards the door.
But just as he reached the door, he heard Joan’s call, “Wait.”
Jas returned to Joan’s bedroom, frowning, “What now?
Can’t you say everything at once?
It’s exhausting doing it this way.”
Joan gritted her teeth, “I need to use the bathroom.”
“I told you earlier, but you insisted on waiting until I was leaving to tell .” Muttering, Jas once again picked Joan up and carried her directly to the bathroom.
