Jessica stared at Carl for several minutes before turning to get her phone.
Seeing that Jessica walked away from the window, Carl thought that Jessica was ignoring him and
kicked a little pebble in frustration.
The next moment, his phone vibrated.
Carl raised his head and saw Jessica standing in front of the window.
He took out his mobile phone and saw a message from Jessica.
She asked him, "How did you get in?"
Carl replied, "I climbed over the wall."
Jessica, "You'd better leave now. I'm sleepy."
Carl said, "Alright!"
He wanted to ask if Jessica was angry.
But he didn't dare to ask.
Jessica was finally willing to speak to him. If he asked and reminded Jessica of what happened in the
Golden Cauldron, she might be enraged and ignore him.
Jessica was irritable.
When Jessica received the reply, she looked downstairs and found that Carl was there. He stared at
her like a puppy.
Jessica paused for a moment and closed the curtains.
However, she did not leave. She watched Carl through a slit in the curtains.
Why hadn't he left?
She remembered that Carl was naughty.
That night, Jessica kept staring at Carl until he left.
The next morning, when Jessica went downstairs and reached the corner, she heard Carl's voice
coming from downstairs.
He stood in the yard for so long last night and got up so early today.
Was he an energetic teenage boy?
Jessica stood at the corner and didn't move.
After a night, she had calmed down and wasn't so angry as before. She couldn't even remember what
riled her yesterday. She just didn't want to face Carl.
She didn't want to ask Carl about his relationship with that girl.
She didn't want to know why Carl lied to her.
All of a sudden, she felt that everything was dull.
She had never gotten what she cared about and longed for.
She tried to start over, thinking that she and Carl could spend the rest of their lives together, but things
didn't happen as she expected.
"Why hasn't Jessica gotten up yet? I'll wake her up." Arabel's voice came from downstairs.
Hearing this, Jessica decided to go downstairs instead of returning to her room.
Carl was already here, so she had to face him even if she was reluctant to do so.
Jessica met Arabel at the bottom stair.
"You're already up?" Arabel smiled and looked at Jessica, "Carl has been here for a while. Have you
invited him to come here?"
"No." Jessica smiled faintly.
As soon as Jessica walked out, Carl's eyes fixed on her.
Arabel usually took a walk after breakfast. Jessica and Carl had been friends since childhood, so
Arabel left them alone and went out after packing up.
There were only Jessica and Carl, and the dining room quieted down.
"Breakfast." Carl pushed breakfast towards Jessica.
Jessica had no appetite and slowly ate. She asked him, "Why do you want?"
Carl was upset and said, "Jessica, don't do this to me."
He could accept that Jessica lost her temper with him, or ignored him. But he didn't want Jessica to be
aloof to him and coldly talked to him.
"Leave here if you have nothing to talk about with me. Don't disturb my breakfast time." Jessica looked
down and avoided eye contact with Carl.
Carl sat beside her and tilted his head to look at her face. "It's my fault. I shouldn't have said that. If you
want to help Jayvion, we'll discuss it thoroughly. It's up to you to decide how to help him,
okay?"
