Chapter 2937

Clara lowered her head in dejection.

"I'm in a good place right now with Johann, Mrs.Wright.We're good friends."

But I don't want both of you to be just friends.l want you to be my daughter-in-law.

Ugh, forget about it now.

They probably need more time.

Clara lifted her head and chuckled awkwardly before quickly changing the topic.

Love is not something that you can rush, and it's important for both parties to develop feelings for each other.Perhaps both of them did not spend enough time together, hence Joan has no feelings for Johann.

"Joan, if you're afraid to be alone, you can come and stay with me"

Joan knew that Clara was referring to what had happened last night.She hoped that it was like what Clara had said just now, that someone came knocking on the wrong door.

"It's alright, Mrs.Wright.I'll be fine on my own."

Joan replied with a smile.

Meanwhile, an uptight woman was pacing around anxiously as she waited for an answer.

"How did it go?” Abelyn asked coldly.

"We failed.”

The man hurried over and replied feebly with his head bowed.

"Useless piece of sh*t!"

"When we knocked on the door last night, her neighbor shouted at us to keep it down.We left because we were afraid to be discovered" the man explained.

Neighbor?That old woman? Abelyn lifted her head and narrowed her eyes while she looked into the distance.

"Find a chance to strike.Don't forget that you'll be paid one million for this.Once it's done, I'll transfer the money to you immediately.”

She left after saying that.

The man continued to stand there with uneasiness in his heart.

This was a matter of life and death, so it was only natural for them to be a little more cautious.

On the other side of things, Joan never told Jessica about the incident where someone came banging on her door late in the night.

And Jessica had been busy recently in the bookstore, so she had no time to visit her.Back at the office, Larry asked nonchalantly, "Have you seen Joan recently?”

"No" Jessica replied curtly.

Displeased, Larry put down his pen

Jessica knew that Larry would be infuriated after hearing that, so she quickly explained, "I've been busy lately, and that's why I don't have time to visit her"

Larry's angry expression eased slightly.Why don't he go over himself since he's so worried? Jessica shot him a dirty look and pursed her lips.

"How's the bookstore doing recently?” Larry asked.

"Not too bad.Another batch of new books just came in.Also, I'm planning to open two more bookstores in the next few days; Jessica said.Oh my, she's really something else.As of today, Jessica was managing the bookstores business with immense ease.She was no longer as careless and hasty as before.

Although she would occasionally still give him the puppy-dog eyes, she had changed a lot in her ways, especially in her career.

For this, Larry was definitely proud of her.

"Larry, I think you need to talk to Joan; Jessica said all of a sudden.

"Since she has lost her memory, you should help her to regain her memories”

Although Jessica had a point, Larry knew that it wasn't that easy, considering Joan's temperament. No one could force her to do something that she did not want to do

Just like how she's refusing to see him now, thus she was avoiding him.

Meanwhile, ever since the late-night door knocking incident, Joan had hardly stepped out of the house.

She stayed home all day and occupied herself with either cooking or gardening.

Even though it became boring after quite a while, nevertheless, she had a sense of peace.

And Clara would come over and chat with her every other day.

All these made her days pass by peacefully.

But ever since Johann learned from Clara that Joan only treated him as a friend, it troubled him. Joan was the first woman who captivated him, hence he wasn't going to give up so easily.

He had thought that Joan would take a liking to himself after spending some time together, but he was wrong to think so.It seemed that Joan's feelings toward him were not romantic at all.
