Chapter 82 - Caspar Apologized (2/2)
Jean always thought of Finland when he travelled to unique places and never forgot to buy a souvenir for her.
[I already gave it to your boyfriend. I met him this afternoon.]
Boyfriend?
A few moments later Finland realized that Jean meant Caspar. Ugh... Finland still didn't want to talk to Caspar.
[Ok...] Finland just replied briefly.
[Oh, by the way, I met the woman who was with him yesterday too. Caspar said she was his personal bodyguard. Apparently our assumption was wrong.] Moments later Jean sent another message. [I am sorry. Maybe I unconsciously tried to find his flaws and when I saw him with a hot woman, I immediately told you about it, clouded by my own assumptions...]
[It's okay, Jean. That's not your fault.]
[Maybe I really hoped that he is a player and that he's not good enough for you... So I have a reason to take you away from him.]
Finland was silent for a long time after reading Jean's last message. She thought of the night when she and Jean drank a lot of cocktails during their bar hopping evening.
Finland finally had to be carried home because she was too drunk to walk, and she vaguely remembered Jean saying that Finland could be his wife in this life if Caspar didn't treat her well.
They never discussed it, and maybe Jean did not know that Finland was sober enough to remember what he said... She now knew that Jean had feelings for her. Even so, the man never did anything improper or tried to create a drift between her and Caspar. Instead, he helped Caspar understand Finland's condition and advised him to be patient to win her heart.
Jean's love for her was silent, because Finland did not love him as a lover. Her small heart was already filled with only one man, and that was Caspar. She loved Jean as a friend and as a brother.
[Caspar was indeed a player. But that was before he met me. Now he is a faithful man.] Finally, Finland replied to Jean's message. [He is kind to me. It's just that he's got an awful sense of humor.]
[As long as you're happy with him, I'm happy for you.]
Finland hoped that someday Jean would meet a wonderful woman who can appreciate just how valuable he was.
