Carl looked at Leonardo with jealousy.
Leonardo could sit beside Summer, but he could not sit beside Jessica.
He turned to look at Jessica, thinking about what Leonardo had said just now. What exactly was Jessica's knot? Apart from the fact that he left in a hurry the day after the incident, what else caused Jessica a grudge against him? She didn't even want to be with him!
Carl sighed. He was standing behind Jessica, so Jessica could hear his sigh. Jessica turned her head to look at him, but she did not look happy, "Be quiet."
Carl felt wronged. Did he say anything? He couldn't even sigh?
Jessica felt that her words were harsh. She pursed her lips and turned around to continue playing cards, and no longer looked at Carl.
Opposite them, Leonardo hugged Rosie and quietly sat beside Summer. Rosie was still holding the can in her hand. She sized Carl and Jessica up.
Then, she reached out her small hand to cover her lips and whispered in Leonardo's ear, "Dad, Auntie Jessica doesn't like Uncle Carl."
The can in Rosie's hand was not big, and it was even smaller than a bowl.
Leonardo, who never did chores before, knew how to take care of his child now. He knew children shouldn't eat too many nuts at one time.
Leonardo took the can from Rosie's hand and said softly, "That is enough."
Leonardo was mighty. Although Rosie still wanted to eat, she had no choice but to purse her lips and stop. She watched as Leonardo took the can and put it away.
No matter how Carl viewed it, he felt Leonardo's sweet family was dazzling. He felt his pocket and intended to go out for a cigarette. However, he searched through his pockets but didn't find anything.
He wanted to sigh again. Before he did it, he remembered what Jessica had just said and held it back. Jessica told him to keep quiet.
