Predestined Marriage
Chapter 1614: He Is Too Ashamed to See Her Again

"Jayvion."

Jayvion's eyes lighted up when he heard Jessica's voice.

She addressed him with intimacy, which meant that Jessica was still willing to be his friend.

Jessica said, "Thank you."

Jayvion was confused, "What?"

"You've shown a lot to me."

Jayvion looked at Jessica and waited. But she didn't intend to continue.

"What happens?" Jayvion asked worriedly.

"When people understand what has happened, they will be less bothered and be less cheered as well," Jessica said when she was looking out of the window. Jayvion looked at her and didn't feel real.

He wanted to say something but had no idea what to say.

Comforts were unnecessary as Jessica didn't look sad.

He couldn't figure out what was in Jessica's mind at that point.

"I'm busy." After finishing her coffee, Jessica stood up and said, "I've got to go. See you next time."

"Okay." Jayvion stood up and nodded.

He knew very well that there might be no 'next time' ever.

It might be possible to see Jessica again if he tried hard. However, he was too ashamed to see her again.

Jessica walked out of the coffee shop.

At night, when Carl came back home, he found that it was quiet and dark.

Jessica had not come back yet.

He took out his phone and called Jessica.

"Jessica, what time is it?" His tone of voice was unfriendly.

Jessica was getting far too cheeky and was never home.

It couldn't go on like this. He should let her know that he had a temper.

Jessica was supposed to be washing up at this time. Carl could hear a faint sound of water from the other end.

"I'll not go back these days. I'm rehearsing with my teacher. I have an apartment nearby and am going to stay here."

"Why haven't you told me in advance?"

Carl stretched out his hand and forcefully ran his fingers through his hair. Jessica's tone of voice was calm. She didn't do anything wrong. He knew that she was busy with her work. "Are you working overtime? I won't bother you more." The sound of water went away and it became quiet.

"Jessica!" Carl called her name in an admonitory voice.

He didn't like the impersonal manner she spoke to him.

Jessica said gently, "I'm going to bed. I have to get up at five o'clock tomorrow."

Carl was upset but he could not yell at her. He was irritated.

Finally, he said, "Okay."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jessica hung up the phone.

Carl looked at his phone and got angry.

However, he could do nothing about it but randomly rubbed his hair.

It went on like this for several days.

Jessica said that she was rehearsing and would come back home recently. She did keep her word.

Carl was out early and came back home late. Jessica was early to bed and early to rise. Carl had not seen Jessica for several days.

He wanted to go and see Jessica.

After living together, Carl had never been apart from her for so long. He missed her very much.

When thinking of Jessica's cold tone, he wanted Jessica to make a move first.

It went this way for a week.

Carl couldn't hold on any longer. He drove to see Jessica.
