Predestined Bride

Chapter 1699 A Tacit Knowledge



Jessica narrowed her eyes slightly and glanced at Carl before shifting her gaze.

She could clearly see what was going on over there only through a glance.

Carl lowered his head and spoke to Sophia in a gentle way.

Such a sight was somewhat an eyesore.

It was just an eyesore for her, so she could choose to ignore it.

Jessica dropped her gaze and stared at her hands.

She played with her hands and took a close look at them. They were a little dry. She should spare the time to have hand care and then have a manicure.

But she couldn’t have a manicure now. After all, she was going to shoot.

She would leave it until she finished shooting.

In filming, she had to listen to the costume designer and the stylist. Then she couldn’t change her hair and nails. It was a costume drama this time, so it was especially strict in terms of costumes and styling.

Seeing that Carl and Sophia stood together and spoke intimately, Molly couldn’t help but look down at Jessica.

But Jessica was staring at her hands. Then she couldn’t help but call her.

“Jessica…”

“What?”

Jessica turned and looked at Molly.

“Nothing…” She did not say anything else seeing that Jessica remained calm.

Nevertheless, she didn’t know whether Jessica was really calm or just pretended to.

After all, Jessica was a professional actress, so she could not tell it.

They were already in front of the car while talking.

When standing up, Jessica felt a familiar gaze fall on her.

She did not look up. Instead, she bent and slowly got in the car.

Then Molly put the wheelchair in the trunk.

Jessica didn’t look up at Carl who was not far away until she got in the car.

Carl and Sophia remained there, standing beside the car and talking.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“I saw Jessica when coming out just now…”Seeing that Carl had been staring at Jessica, Sophia was unhappy. But she did not show it. Instead, she mentioned what happened just now to attract Carl’s attention.

Sure enough, Carl shifted his gaze to her the moment she spoke.

Sophia loosened up and wore a faint smile, “Since Jessica can come to the show, her legs might not be serious. But she remains the same as before, a real… personality.”

Sophia purposely paused for a moment before the word “personality”.

As to Jessica, to put it mildly, she was a personality. If not, she even could be said to be bad-tempered. It was a tacit fact.

Carl noticed the satire in Sophia’s tone instantly. He curled his lips and glanced at her in a sulk.

No one knew better about Jessica’s temper than Carl.

It was him who spoiled her.

Sophia was a little uneasy about Carl’s glance. It made her feel like she was completely exposed. Even the dark jealousy in her heart was all exposed to others.

She was slightly pale.

However, Carl did not say anything and only walked towards Jessica.

“Carl!” Sophia was at a loss and subconsciously called his name in a questioning tone.

But on second thought, even if Carl and Jessica weren’t together, they still had affections for each other.

But it didn’t matter.

Only one could be Carl’s wife. That was what really mattered.
