Predestined Bride

Carl frowned and glanced at Jessica, saying, “Jessica, don’t jinx me! Tip Top and I are fine!”

Jessica picked up a cushion and smashed it at Carl, saying, “I just care about you!”

Seeing that Jessica was about to smash another cushion at him, Carl hurriedly grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his embrace. He said, “Alright, I know you care about me. You still have a wound on your hand. Don’t get angry…”

Jessica put down the cushion and asked Carl in a soft tone, “What else are you hiding from me?”

Carl said with a serious face, “Nothing.”

“Alright, I believe you.” Jessica raised her chin and chose to believe him.

Carl curled his lips and pulled her into his embrace, saying, “Darling, don’t think too much. Just take care of yourself.”

Jessica said, “‘Darling’? That’s pretentious of you to say that…”

“Sure I am.”

…

They hugged each other on the sofa and talked for a while before Jessica fell asleep.

Jessica had been in the hospital these past few days, and she had a very regular routine and diet.

After Jessica fell asleep, Carl sat on the sofa and hugged her for a while. After confirming that she was asleep, he carried her into the bedroom.

She placed Jessica on the bed and tucked her in.

Carl sat beside the bed and looked at her sleeping face in a daze.

After a while, he thought that Jessica would wake up in the middle of the night and want to drink water, so he turned around and went out to serve a glass of water for her.

Just as he walked out of the bedroom, the phone on the coffee table rang.

Carl’s expression changed from calm to grim.

It was a text message, not a phone call.

When he walked to the coffee table, his phone had quieted down and didn’t ring again.

But the screen hadn’t darkened yet, and there was a new text message on it.

Carl picked up his phone and frowned.

After a few seconds, he unlocked his phone and read the new text message.

The new text message came with a picture.

He had been getting text messages like this since last night.

The person who texted Carl hid the phone number. Carl asked Kalyan to investigate it but still hadn’t found anything.

He only took a glance at the photo on the phone. Carl couldn’t help but tighten his grip on the phone and the blue veins stood out on the back of his hands.

Then, as before, he deleted the text message.

The text message was deleted completely.

…

In the middle of the night.

Jessica woke up and felt somewhat thirsty.

She turned on the bedside lamp as usual and found a glass of water at the bedside.

Apart from her, only Carl was in this house.

It was obvious that Carl prepared it for her.

Jessica couldn’t help but give a smile.

After drinking the water, she lay down again and tilted her body to see the empty glass at the head of the bed.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

She wanted to see Carl.

Although Carl usually quarreled with her, most of the time, he respected her wishes very much.

Even if she said she didn’t want to share a room with him, he had no objection.

Carl respected her wishes.

He was indeed a good boyfriend.

Jessica wanted to see Carl and thought she wouldn’t be discovered by him.

If he found out, she would say she got up to go to the bathroom and went to the wrong room.

Jessica couldn’t help but laugh when she thought of this.

She didn’t believe this reason.

But Carl definitely believed it!
