Predestined Marriage
Chapter 1422 Take Ten Years to Pay for It

Summer didn't argue with Jessica. She just smiled without saying a word. Jessica felt she was seen through.

She didn't dare look into Summer's eyes. She finally lowered her head and said nothing.

Summer continued, "You cannot control your feelings. Otherwise, people would not be sad anymore."

Jessica remained silent, her expression gloomy and helpless.

"Jessica, look at me and Leonardo. You said that our love was beautiful, but you know that Leonardo and I were not like this at the beginning. We experienced a lot. The opposite of happiness is unhappiness, and we would all experience these bad things. But don't be afraid. Love can defeat everything."

Summer thought little of what had happened before. Maybe because she was happy now, so the bad memories were slowly forgotten. She couldn't even remember how, when or with whom those had happened.

Jessica pursed her lips and said in a hoarse voice, "You have always been braver than me. You saved me from that group of people."

Summer had a good temper and looked kind and weak. However, when they encountered trouble, it was Summer who supported Jessica and encouraged her.

Jessica wanted to be friends with Summer not only because Summer saved her in that old school building, but also because Summer had the tenacity and courage she yearned for.

Summer laughed, "That's because I have you behind me, and I trust you completely. No matter what happens, you will help me. Even if you can't do it, you will try your best. That's why I have confidence and become brave."

"Do you really think so?" Jessica raised her eyes. She did not expect that she would have such a great effect on Summer.

Jessica looked like a helpless child. Summer looked at her firmly, "Definitely. I know I'm not alone, and that's why I'm fearless. I know you're behind me."

"You love Carl, but you chose to ignore it because you felt that Carl would not be on your side. He left you alone at the time. So you couldn't trust him anymore. Over the years, you have built a solid barrier and it is specifically designed for Carl. Even if you have feelings for him, you are more afraid of repeating the same pain. Therefore, you choose to chase Carl away to protect yourself."

Jessica's head lowered.

Summer was right.

Jessica and Carl had known each other for more than ten years. Together they grew from ignorance to maturity. Summer knew well about Jessica and had seen through her. Jessica had found so many reasons for herself.

She said that she wanted to end everything and look ahead. She also said that she should have her own life...

To sum up, Jessica was scared.

She was too afraid of repeating the pain.

She was too scared that those bad things would start over again.

Jessica was confident before, but after that incident, she became extremely self-abased.

On her eighteenth birthday, she tricked Carl into a hotel and got him drunk.

It took her only ten minutes to do this.

But she had to pay for it for the next ten years.0000
