Predestined Bride

Jessica took over the phone with a look of confusion. What she saw surprised her.

That was Carl.

Jessica was sure the unclear photo was secretly taken. But she still could recognize the man on it was Carl.

Jayvion snorted and said with displeasure, “Look at what he did to you.”

The photo showed that Carl was walking out of a flower shop, not only with a bunch of flowers but also with a joyful heart.

There was more than one photo, so Jessica guessed the stalker had followed Carl for a while. The photos were taken six images in a burst. From the moment when Carl entered the flower shop, he was on somebody’s watch.

What would people say if they saw a man bought flowers with such delight? Carl must move on to another girl!

However, the flowers in Carl’s hands looked familiar to Jessica. That was the exact same one Carl bought home yesterday.

And they were still in the vase.

Jessica’s lips curled up, as her gaze locked on the photos.

She couldn’t believe buying her flowers would make him so happy.

Carl had a child inside him.

But Jessica had to hold back her smile, as she realized Jayvion was still here.

Jessica lightly coughed to hide her excitement, “Carl is really something, isn’t he? I never expect buying flowers can make headlines of entertainment news. I’m kind of jealous.”

Jayvion was astounded, “Jessica, you don’t get the point! Carl was dating someone new!”

“No more Carl, okay? I’ve got things to do later, so I’d better hurry up.” Jessica handed over the phone to Jayvion.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

Jayvion felt Jessica was trying to pull herself together. ‘It will be better to leave her alone.’ Jayvion thought.

…

Jessica got a phone call from Carl as soon as she finished her meal.

She said to Jayvion, “Sorry, I have to go. See you later.”

“Alright.” Jayvion nodded and said, “Have a nice day.”

Jessica picked up the phone after she got into the car.

“What’s the matter?” She pretended she did not know why Carl called.

And Carl also pretended to ask her with seriousness, “What are you doing?”

Jessica tried to keep the straight face and said, “Nothing special. I’m just browsing the celebrity gossip. They say you’re dating a new girlfriend, playboy.”

“You know I’m not. Come on! You know more than others how loyal I am.”

Jessica said, “Whatever you say.”

Carl was speechless.

“I gotta go if you have nothing else to say.” Jessica continued.

“Jessica, wait!” Carl cleared his throat, “Have you finished your meal with Jayvion?”

“Why do you ask that?” No surprise there, Jessica knew why Carl called.

Carl pressed on, “There’s a newly opened Chinese restaurant I heard from Kalyan. He said that was not bad. I’m wondering whether we can drop by for a meal. Perhaps you’ll like it more than the western restaurant you had gone to just now.”

Tapping on the steering wheel with her slender fingers, Jessica said in a cold tone, “How do you know I went to a western restaurant?”

Carl could say nothing.

Jessica snorted, “I know you’re here!”

A car horn went off in a second.

When she heard the car siren, Jessica looked up and saw Carl’s car.

The place where he parked his car enabled Carl to see Jessica and Jayvion in the restaurant.
