Soon Leonardo became quiet.
Carl knew Leonardo didn’t go to greet Jessica, though Leonardo said he would, because Carl did not
hear it.
Carl lost his patience and asked, "Did you do it on purpose?"
"Yes." Leonardo sounded casual and pleasant.
Carl hesitantly said, "Jessica, where is she?"
However, Leonardo said, "Go and like me first."
"Alright, alright! I'll do it now." Carl really felt Leonardo had become more boring after he got married.
He not only posted pictures on Moments, but also asked others for likes.
Carl had no choice but to like the post.
After that, he picked up the phone and continued, "I just did it!"
Leonardo said indifferently, "Let me check it for you."
After a few seconds, Leonardo said, "At home."
Leonardo hung up the phone impatiently then.
Carl curled his lips with dissatisfaction. Who said they were going to be best friends forever? For
Leonardo, friends would never be as important as his wife...
Jessica actually went home to celebrate the New Year.
Jessica did not answer his phone and avoided him deliberately. Even in the WeChat group, she would
stop chatting the moment he appeared.
But she could not avoid him forever.
Carl stood up, picked up his coat and put it on. He grabbed the car keys and walked out, but he didn't
even notice that he was smiling.
Walking to the elevator entrance, Carl noticed one elevator was going up.
Apart from him, anyone working overtime in the company had been off work at 10 p.m. at most. Why
would anyone come up at this time?
It continued to go up, and it seemed that whoever in it was about to stop at his floor.
Carl was absent-minded for a moment.
He remembered he and Jessica used to be too busy to go home on New Year's Eve, so they would
spend the day together. Although he usually went to look for Jessica, Jessica came to look for him
once.
Thinking of this, Carl cheered up.
Could it be her?
The elevator door opened in front of him, and Sivan walked out, dressed in her best clothes. Instantly,
Carl's expression changed.
Sivan had a thermos bucket in her hand and said, "I know you are working late in the company tonight,
so I specially cooked food for you. It's still warm. I hope you like it."
Sivan looked at Carl with a smile, as if she didn't notice Carl's displeasure.
Carl ignored her, walked to another elevator and pressed the button.
The elevator came up quickly. When Carl was about to enter, Sivan walked over and dragged him,
"Carl, you ..."
Carl shook her hand off and said coldly, "I promoted you because I thought you were a talented actress
with potential. I thought you were a smart woman as well."
"I ..." Sivan could vaguely guess what Carl was going to say next. Her expression changed slightly as if
she wanted to say something.
But Carl didn't give her a chance, "After the New Year, I will announce our breakup to the media."
"I know I'm not good enough, but can you give me another chance?" Sivan said, and was almost
crying.
Sivan looked at Carl with a smile, as if she didn't notice Carl's displeasure.
Carl ignored her, walked to another elevator and pressed the button.
