Chapter 1526 What Are You Afraid of? I Know What I’m Doing
As long as Carl announced his family relationship with Jessica’s, the rumors that Jessica had compensated dating experiences would naturally collapse by themselves.
Jessica’s current troubles could be easily solved in this way.
As for Jayvion, on the other hand, his trouble was not that simple to be solved.
Jayvion was the only son of the Rowland Family, and behind him was the Rowland family.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
The Rowland family’s foundation was in Hoover City. Although it was not as glorious as the previous years, it still had a good reputation and high status in the industry. Once Jayvion’s incident was exposed, it would have a great impact on the Rowland family.
As the only son of the Rowland family, the successor of the Rowland family, Jayvion took part in some low-end and immoral activities like those do-nothing Rich Second Generations. This would cause the shareholders and investors of the company to have a negative reaction towards the Rowland family, thus affecting the development of the Rowland family.
Carl was a businessman himself, so he naturally knew all about these things.
Carl frowned and then said coldly, “He asked for it.”
Silent for a moment, Jessica turned to look at Carl and saw he focused as if he was in deep thoughts. But there were no emotions in his eyes as if he was not thinking anything at all.
Jessica couldn’t help but ask Carl, “Do you really not care about Jayvion?”
“Who cares about him? I’m not his father!” Carl stopped here and then sneered, “Since the things happened, he hasn’t shown up and not even called me. Even if I want to help him, where can I start?”
Jessica was momentarily dumbfounded.
A moment later, she glanced at her phone and asked, “Could something dangerous have happened to him?”
She found it hard to believe that Jayvion, who was eating with her at noon and cared about her, had disappeared without contacting Carl and her after such a big incident.
Jessica did not blame Jayvion for involving her into this affair but Jayvion’s silence to her. She thought Jayvion too mean.
Jessica thought for a moment and said, “Maybe I should give him a call?”
“Cut it out! He hid himself like a coward after causing troubles and let us wipe his as*s!” Carl wore a long face, and his tone was very firm.
Jessica knew that Carl had made up his mind to ignore Jayvion.
“Mr. Carl.”
Kalyan’s voice sounded from outside, “The conference room is ready.”
Carl looked slightly down at Jessica, “Let’s go.”
As he spoke to Jessica, Carl’s expression became soft again.
Jessica nodded slightly and stood up.
Carl held her hand and walked out. Jessica was stunned for a moment, wanting to free her hand from him. ‘What he said just now was only to announce their family relationship between him and me, not the love relationship.’
However, she was afraid that Carl would get angry if she freed her hand from him.
Usually, she was extremely unbridled in front of Carl. But in fact, she would also be frightened when Carl got angry.
When reaching the door, Carl suddenly let go of her hand. Jessica then heaved a sigh of relief.
Carl held the handle with one hand, but he did not turn the handle. Instead, he turned his head to look at Jessica and said with a faint smile, “What are you afraid of? I know what I am doing.”
Jessica instantly felt embarrassed as if he saw through her.
He knew what she was thinking.
She vaguely heard Carl sigh slightly. When she wanted to look up to see him, she heard Carl say, “You still don’t believe me.”
Jessica was stunned, “What?”
Carl showed a mischievous look and smiled teasingly, “I said that you look incredibly good today.”
“Don’t tease me!” Jessica pushed him aside and turned the handle of the door to open it.
As soon as the door was open, Jessica met two pairs of eyes directly.
It was Molly and Kalyan.
