Predestined Bride

It had been a long time since Jessica had such a pleasant conversation with someone.

She was afraid of being seen through, but with Summer’s words, she realized that it wasn’t that bad.

Jessica now was much more relaxed, and she felt sudden enlightenment.

Jessica let herself go. She was in a different state now.

Jessica finished work and was taking off makeup in the break room. Molly looked at her curiously, “Jessica, I feel that something is different about you. What happened?”

“I just figured out something,” Jessica said with a smile.

She looked relaxed. Jessica used to be gloomy, but now she was completely changed.

Molly did not know what was going on, but she could feel that Jessica did not want to say it. So she did not ask, “Anyway, it’s good that you are happy.”

…

Jessica removed her makeup and walked out with Molly.

“I’ll go drive. Wait here.” Molly turned her head to talk to Jessica, but Jessica suddenly stopped.

“What’s the matter?”

Molly then saw Carl walking towards her not far away. She asked in surprise, “Carl? Why is he here?”

“Pick up your car first.” Jessica then walked towards Carl.

What?

Molly was filled with questions. She felt that something was wrong.

Jessica and Carl had been at odds with each other before. But now, with Jessica’s reaction, Molly felt that their relationship was a bit changed.

Molly walked towards the parking lot, and she turned to look at Jessica.

Seeing Jessica was coming, Carl took another step and met her under the street lamps by the side of the road.

Carl was still wearing the suit from the program. He was tall and straight. He didn’t wear his tie, and he looked tired. The dim yellow light shone on him, making him gentle.This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

He was like coming home after a day’s work, tired but happy to see his family.

“You smoked?”

Jessica stood two steps away from him. She kept him at a social distance. But she could smell it from Carl.

Carl was slightly stunned, and then he chuckled, “Smart nose.”

“Sivan is pregnant. You shouldn’t smoke. It’s not good for her and your child.”

Jessica was serious.

She was so serious that Carl felt sad for a moment.

He lowered his head and kicked a small pebble. His voice was muffled, “I know.”

Although Sivan’s child had nothing to do with Carl, he was willing to listen to what Jessica said.

Carl looked like a playboy. He was usually cheeky, but suddenly he was serious and nice. It was hard to refuse him.

Jessica’s heart was softened. She asked, “Why did you go against me at the program?”

Summer had said that Carl was not stupid, so he should have a reason for doing that.

Carl turned to the side and said, “You’re not familiar with other people. I can liven up the vibe by interacting with you.”

But that was not the real reason.

He didn’t want to see Sivan cause trouble for Jessica on the show, so he’d rather be the bad guy. And he wanted to talk to Jessica a little more.
