"I didn't think too much at that time. I thought that it was the casino employees who urged me to pay the money back. I had no way out. I even didn't doubt it. I couldn't find out anything even if I'm going to investigate it..."
When Jayvion mentioned this, he seemed a little frustrated.
He also believed that things are not that simple after a talk with Carl about it.
He just didn't know what they really wanted.
Who did he offend and why did they try to harm him?
And then he thought of Jessica...
Jayvion suddenly looked up at Jessica and said, "Do you think someone is trying to harm you too?
"Maybe," Jessica answered calmly.
Jayvion nodded slightly. Then he thought of something, hesitating, "Jessica, I want to ask you something, but I'm not sure if I can..."
"Then don't ask me," Jessica said directly.
Jessica already knew his question.
But she didn't want to mention it again after so many years.
There was no need to do so.
And she didn't want to talk about this with Jayvion.
"You love Carl, right?" Jayvion finally asked.
Jessica remained silent.
Jayvion said with a wry smile, "If that's the case, many things make sense."
"Life is too short to love only one person," Jessica said slowly as if she was talking to herself or Jayvion.
Jayvion stared at her and said, "But it varies from person to person. Some people may fall in love with more than one person through their lifetime, while others will only love one."
Jessica was slightly stunned. When she was about to speak, she heard someone calling her name.
