His Ugly Bride novel Chapter 1551

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.
