"What?" When Summer heard Jessica's words, she was astonished for a moment before looking down at her hand.
She didn't feel the pain until the blood from her fingers had dropped onto the chopping board.
Jessica walked forward and quickly took the kitchen knife in her hand and put it aside, pinching her fingers and saying, "Be careful!"
Summer smiled, 'Tm fine. It is just a scratch."
"A scratch? Look at it yourself. If the wound is deeper, it will leave a scar!" Jessica was a little angry. She held Summer's finger and let Summer see it herself.
Such a big move made Summer painful.
Jessica glared at Summer and with an angry face, she put Summer's finger under the tap to give it washed by running water.
After washing the blood off her hands, Jessica was about to ask Summer if there was any Band-Aid when she heard Summer ask her, "Who told you that?"
Jessica did not catch her at first. After realizing that Summer was asking about Leonardo and Amber's marriage, she could not help but glare at Summer again, "You are hurt. How can you still care about other people's business?"
Although Jessica had a sharp tongue, she still told Summer, "Carl."
It turned out to be Carl....
"If it was Carl who told you, then it might be true." Summer looked down and muttered.
Seeing that Summer was out of her mind, Jessica pinched her wound with displeasure and said, "You'd better tell me if there are any
Band-Aids first!"
Summer frowned in pain, "It is in the cupboard in the living room."
Jessica got Summer a Band-Aid and covered the wound with it. Summer still wanted to ask something, but when she saw Jessica's angry face, she did not ask again.
Jessica helped Summer cover her wound with the Band-Aid and carefully looked at it before saying, "Your hand is injured and cannot get wet. Let's go out for dinner."
"It's fine. It's just one finger. It won't affect cooking. I...."
Before Summer could finish her sentence, she stopped after seeing Jessica's unhappy face. In the end, she went out with Jessica.
Jessica couldn't be bothered to discuss with Summer and drove directly to Golden Cauldron Club.
Although today was a working day, the restaurant in Golden Cauldron Club was still crowded in every room. They didn't ask for a private room, but instead got a table in the hall.
After ordering the dishes, Jessica fixed her gaze on Summer. No one knew what she was looking at.
Summer was uneasy by Jessica's gaze, "Just say what you want to say. Don't look at me like that."
"Your ex-husband is getting married. What about you?" Jessica paused for a moment and quickly knocked on the dining table twice with her fingertips, making a clear sound, "Hurry to find someone and get married. If you really can't find one, I can introduce someone to you."
Summer whispered, "What are you talking about?"
Seeing Summer like this, Jessica let out a long sigh. She lowered her voice and said, "I just can't let it go! Mr. Emerson had lost his memory for three years, and Amber had so many opportunities at that time, but she still failed to make Mr. Emerson fall in love with her! And now Mr. Emerson falls in love with her after you've been through all this? This is quite beyond my imagination!"
Hearing Jessica say this, Summer was very calm. She looked down and her mind flashed back to scenes that she had experienced with Leonardo. However, she was very calm now.
"Those things are over. When I was with him, we didn't let each other down. That's enough."
