Predestined Bride

Carl said nothing.

His fingers lightly tapped on the armrest of the chair. No one could guess what he was thinking about.

Jayvion thought, ‘is this a difficult question?’

‘Or I shouldn’t ask him this?’

But it seemed he wasn’t angry.

As Jayvion thought about it, he suddenly understood something.

Jayvion tentatively said, “You and Jessica…”

But the phone rang and interrupted him.

It was Carl’s phone. He lowered his head and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. He wanted to hang up, but he finally answered at the thought of something.

“Excuse me, is this Mr. Carl?” A middle-aged woman’s voice came from the phone.

Carl said, “Yes.”

“It’s Jessica’s teacher…”

Upon hearing Jessica’s name, Carl immediately sat up straight and said, “What happened to her?”

Perhaps Carl overreacted. The teacher paused for a moment, “Mr. Carl, don’t worry. Jessica is fine. It’s just a slight injury. I just thought that you grew up with her. Perhaps you know how to contact her parents…”

“Where is she?” Carl stood up with a cold voice.

“You…”

“Which hospital?” Carl interrupted the teacher.

His tone became stronger, and it sounded unfriendly.

The teacher was experienced. She recalled that Carl had just come to see Jessica yesterday. ‘They had dinner together, so they must be friends.’ So she told him the address of the hospital.

After Carl heard what he wanted, he hung up the phone.

Seeing Carl’s expression, Jayvion knew something. But he was not sure, “What’s wrong?”

Carl did not answer. He only said, “Have a good rest. Take care of yourself. I’ll come to see you again.”NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

Then he hurried out of the door.

Jayvion put on a self-mocking smile as he watched Carl leave.

He finally got it.

‘The closer you look, the less you see.’

‘Only the person involved can understand it, the outsiders won’t know it.’

…

When Carl came out, Kalyan came over as if he had something to say.

But looking at Carl’s expression, Kalyan understood, “When Miss Jessica was performing, the stage suddenly sank and she fell. Have you known about it?”

Apart from Jessica, Kalyan couldn’t think of anything else that could make him so nervous.

Of course, Carl’s expression would also change due to unexpected situations at work. But that was different.

Kalyan knew him well, so he could tell the difference.

Carl pondered for a moment, “It has been a trending topic?”

Kalyan had been waiting for Carl at the door, so he wouldn’t know it from anyone else. He could only know it from the internet.

After all, Jessica was paid a lot of attention. So she would be put on a trending topic if she injured.

“Yes, it is one of the top three now,” Kalyan told Carl about the situation.

Carl reached out to Kalyan as he walked.

Kalyan clicked open the list of trending topics and handed the phone to Carl.
