Predestined Bride

Jessica could feel that Jayvion wanted to tell her something. But after the phone call, he changed his mind. Instead, he hurriedly left.

Carl looked up in the direction Jayvion left. He said with impatience, “Nothing could happen to him. You’re overthinking this.”

“But he…”

Jessica wanted to go on, but Carl interrupted her, “Leonardo and Summer have arrived. Let’s go up first. They came with Rosie.”

Knowing that Rosie had come, Jessica was excited. “Rosie? I haven’t seen her for ages!”

Carl smiled and said, “Come on.”

…

“Auntie Jessica!”

Jessica heard Rosie calling her as she arrived at the private room.

She found Rosie standing at the door and peeking towards her.

“Dear Rosie!” Jessica trotted to the door, hugged and kissed Rosie.

Carl followed behind Jessica. He felt a little jealous as he watched Jessica hug Rosie.

Jessica had never hugged him before.

He clicked his tongue.

The moment Jessica and Rosie met, they chatted like old friends as they walked inside.

Summer smiled as she saw Jessica and Rosie come in, “Jessica, sit here, please.”

Rosie pulled Jessica to Summer’s side and sat down.

Summer asked Jessica through Rosie, “What took you so long?”

“I met a friend.” Jessica made light of it.

She didn’t want Summer to worry about such a thing.

Summer knew Jessica well. Through Jessica’s words, she vaguely felt that it was not just a friend. But she asked no questions.

After the food was served, Leonardo and Carl began to drink.

“Congratulations. Let me serve you.” Carl opened the wine and poured it for Leonardo.

Leonardo said calmly, “Thank you.”

Carl forced a smile and poured more wine for Leonardo.

They got in a drinking game with each other. At last, they were even drinking out of the bottle.

Carl was also a little unhappy. He and Jessica invited Leonardo and Summer to dinner, only to find out they were going to have a second child…

He lost.

Summer and Jessica didn’t care about the men. After Summer and Jessica ate their fill, Carl and Leonardo were drunk, but the two men were still holding on.

Carl was almost unconscious, and he still tried to provoke Leonardo, “Are you alright?”

Leonardo looked calm, but his face was red. “Take care of yourself.”

“I am fine.” Carl sneered, picked up his glass, and took another sip.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Leonardo snorted coldly, “Just a cup of drink, and you think you win?”

Carl glared at Leonardo and staggered to pour another cup. “Who said I could only drink one more glass? I still get plenty to drink!”

Carl drunk a few more glasses, while Leonardo stayed still.

Jessica was speechless. She turned to Summer and said, “Let’s go out. Ignore these crazy guys.”

She wasn’t afraid the men would drink too much. Leonardo was much more reliable than Carl. He knew it.

Summer nodded. When she left, she warned Leonardo, “Almost enough.”

Seeing that Summer and Jessica were going out, Leonardo grabbed Summer’s hand and asked, “Where are you going?”
