Predestined Marriage

There were only Jessica and Carl in the large conference room.

Carl sat upright at his desk, staring at Jessica sitting opposite, without saying a word.

Jessica felt her eyes became dry. She blinked her eyes, flexed her neck and said, "Mr. Carl, did you ask me here to play a game with you?"

"You..."

He seemed to have pondered for a long time, but he hesitated because he didn't know what to say.

Jessica chuckled. "Mr. Carl, why are you hesitant to answer my question?"

Carl felt irritated when he heard Jessica calling him "Mr. Carl". He took a deep breath as if he had made up his mind. "Is this the reason why you refuse me?"

"What?" Jessica was stunned for a moment.
