Predestined Bride

“Jessica.”

Carl drove the car to the back door of Jessica’s studio. Before he could get out of the car, his voice came first.

Jessica crossed her arms in front of her chest, seeing Carl hurriedly getting off as if she was about to disappear in a minute.

Jessica couldn’t stand it anymore. She was right in front of him. What makes him so hasty?

“Easy, Carl.”

Carl quickly walked to her and placed his hands on her shoulders. He gazed roamed over her and asked, “Is everything alright?”

“Do I look miserable to you?” Jessica said impatiently. Then she couldn’t help but mutter in a low voice, “What made you so cautious now? Even Leonardo isn’t as exaggerated as you are since Summer got pregnant. I’m not…”

There was a sudden flash in Carl’s eyes. He then said playfully, “I’d love to be as cautious as I can! When you’re pregnant, I’ll make a goddess out of you and offer you sacrifices every single day! Ouch!”

Jessica couldn’t help hitting him since he had gone way too far.

Carl dodged right away. “Easy, easy. If you don’t want to have a child, it’s totally OK to have our sweet life of two for good…”

Jessica got tired of his nonsense and turned to Molly in the studio.

Since she called the security guards when she left, the guards should have driven away those reporters at this moment.

Carl followed behind Jessica, babbling along their way in.

Jessica ignored him and moved faster.

When they entered, they saw Molly packing her things up while Christopher was waiting for her right beside. His gaze silently followed Molly. The two of them did not have any talk or eye contact. But the scene looked warm.

Jessica didn’t want to interrupt, so she stopped and didn’t get closer.

“Why the stop?” Carl followed from behind.

Jessica hurriedly turned around to shush Carl. Carl got her point and looked inside. He immediately frowned.

He thought that there was something incredible so that she didn’t want to get closer. But it turned out that Molly and Christopher weren’t doing anything at all and weren’t even talking to each other.

Women!

Thoughts were one thing while actions would be another. He just stood beside Jessica in silence without any complaints.

Molly packed her stuff up and walked towards Christopher. She found him gazing at her. She turned her head bashfully and saw Jessica and Carl standing right over there.

“Jessica? Carl? What brought you here?” Molly looked surprised when he saw Carl.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Carl coughed deliberately and walked in, “I was just passing by and decided to drop in.”

Passing by again?

Molly couldn’t help but turn to look at Christopher.

She remembered that when Christopher last came, he had also said that he was passing by.

What a coincidence!

Christopher pretended to ignore Molly’s confusion and turned to greet Carl, “Mr. Carl”

Carl said, “Mr. Christopher.”

They exchanged a quick look.

Christopher then added, “I still have a meeting to attend later, yet Miss Molly said that she wanted to buy me lunch. We might have to take our leave first.”

Molly was stunned, “What?”

“Ready?” Christopher asked her.

“Yes.”

“Let’s go then.” Christopher reached out and took over Molly’s purse. He nodded at Jessica and went out.

Molly gave Jessica a confused look. She hadn’t figured out yet what just happened.

Jessica waved her hand, “Just go.”
