Predestined Bride

Jessica and Carl began to resent each other again.

Summer was as worried as Leonardo. She lowered her voice and whispered, “Carl always acts like this…”

Carl became especially childish when it came to Jessica’s things.

He was like a primary school student. He liked Jessica, so he targeted and bullied her.

Leonardo smiled and said, “He deserves it.”

…

Although the shooting was marked by acrimony between Jessica and Carl, it ended smoothly.

As soon as it ended, Jessica called Christopher.

“Miss Jessica?” Christopher sounded somewhat surprised.

Jessica said, “I did ‘My Life’ today and saw you in my clip.”

“Oh…” Christopher smiled and patiently explained, “The crew talked with me. I know about it.”

Jessica paused for a moment and said, “I didn’t expect you to not mind appearing on camera.”

Christopher said frankly, “There aren’t many chances to get a wave to ride.”This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

There was no fancy reason. He just wanted to take advantage of Jessica’s popularity.

He was so frank that Jessica could not be angry.

“We’re even.” Last time, Christopher took out the video of the drive recorder to help her. She always felt like she owed him a favor. His appearance in the clip made her feel relaxed.

Christopher didn’t say anything. After a moment, he said, “If you need any help, you can ask your agent to contact me.”

Jessica chuckled. “Oh? I didn’t know that you are so kind-hearted.”

“We are friends,” Christopher said in a serious tone.

After a meaningful reply, Jessica said, “Alright, good-bye, Mr. Christopher.”

After hanging up the phone, Jessica went to the bathroom.

When she came out, she saw Carl and the director walking side by side ahead. They were talking and did not notice Jessica following behind them.

“Cut the scenes of the man surnamed Brown,” Carl said.

The man surnamed Brown?

Of course, he was talking about Christopher.

But why did he want to cut the scenes of Christopher?

“Mr. Carl, you’re making things difficult for me. Mr. Christopher is quite charming. I feel that the audience will like him. Besides, he has agreed, and Miss Jessica doesn’t seem to have any objections.”

Carl’s tone sounded cold. “I’m Jessica’s boss. I have a problem with that.”

“You have a problem? Why?”

“Everyone can see how popular Jessica is now. With a man in her clip, the audience and fans will think they are lovers. It will be troublesome. As the boss, I have to consider the stars under my command.”

Carl spoke seriously. The director almost believed him, but he felt that something was wrong.

He pondered for a moment and soon understood what was wrong.

“Mr. Carl, weren’t you always targeting Miss Jessica in these two episodes?” He really couldn’t see how much consideration Carl had for Jessica.

Carl was speechless.

Jessica followed along and couldn’t help but laugh when she heard this.

When the director turned around and saw that it was Jessica, he smiled happily. “Hello, Miss Jessica. Mr. Carl has a problem with Mr. Christopher’s appearance in your clip. You should discuss it and reach a consensus, alright?”
