Summer Sweetheart novel (Leonardo and Summer)
Chapter 1693: Pray Didn't Work

"I asked her to buy something for me, and she hasn't come back yet. It doesn't matter. I can do it myself." Jessica smiled and looked at the staff.

"Alright then, Jessica. Come and replace us if you need anything."

"Alright."

This was not the first time Jessica had participated in this event. The organizer was also her friend and liked Jessica very much. Every time she came, she would receive preferential treatment from the organizer.

Jessica knew that every time it would start a little earlier because she had participated in this several times.

She had purposely sent Wendy away just now.

After the staff left, Jessica called Wendy.

"Just now, the staff came over and said that the event would be delayed for at least half an hour. Go buy me another dessert. Thanks."

Wendy did not doubt Jessica. She felt that there was no need for Jessica to lie to her on this. "Alright, Jessica."

After making the call, Jessica stood up and walked out. She went to participate in the activity.

The first half of the event was to walk on the red carpet. As for the second half, she needed to change her clothes and went on the stage.

At the entrance, there were a few steps.

When Jessica stepped down from the stage behind the curtain, she pretended to slip and fell. Her knees slammed onto the steps fiercely, making a huge sound. This shocked everyone backstage to the point that they surrounded her.

"Jessica!"

"Miss Jessica!"

Those who were familiar with her called her "Jessica," while the others called her "Miss Jessica."

"She's bleeding. How can she fall?"

"Hurry up and bring over the ointment...."

The staff surrounded her in the middle. Someone helped her up, and someone brought her medicine, while the others checked her legs...

She had worked for so many years and spent so much effort to win these people's hearts.

"It's fine. It doesn't hurt much." Jessica said.

Wendy also came back from shopping at this time.

Only when she returned was she told that the activity had begun a long time ago. When she came to look for Jessica, she was still praying that Jessica should be safe.

However, things often went against her wishes. Pray didn't work.

She didn't want anything to happen to Jessica, but something indeed happened, and there was a big wound on her knee.

"Jessica, what's wrong with you?" Wendy didn't care about asking Jessica why she lied to her about delaying the activity. She was going to be scared to death when seeing Jessica's injuries.

"I just fell over. It doesn't matter." Jessica looked at Wendy and asked, "Where is my coffee?"

"Coffee?"

When Wendy came in just now, she saw that Jessica was injured. She casually put the coffee down and ran over. At this moment, when Jessica asked about the coffee, she suddenly remembered she indeed bought a cup of coffee.

She hurriedly got up and went to fetch the coffee.

"Jessica, do you want to drink it now?"

"I still need to go on stage soon. Give it to me. Let me drink it."

Jessica extended her hand to Wendy and signaled for Wendy to give her the coffee.

The staff had brought over the ointment. Seeing that Jessica still wanted to drink coffee, he felt a little relaxed.

"Jessica, it may hurt a little with this medicine. Please hold on."

"Okay."

Jessica's expression was indifferent as she drank the coffee. It seemed that she was fine and nothing had happened.

But the next moment, she knitted her eyebrows.

The moment the medicine was sprayed on the wound, Jessica felt clearly a heart-wrenching pain.

Although she tried her best to suppress it, she still frowned.

She had to fell over herself, so she absolutely couldn't delay the activity. She had to pretend that it didn't hurt. Otherwise, the organizers would not allow her to continue participating in the following events, because they would be worried that something would happen to her.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
