Carl frowned and glanced at Jessica, saying, "Jessica, don't jinx me! Tip Top and I are fine!"

Jessica picked up a cushion and smashed it at Carl, saying, "I just care about you!"

Seeing that Jessica was about to smash another cushion at him, Carl hurriedly grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his embrace. He said, "Alright, I know you care about me. You still have a wound on your hand. Don't get angry..."

Jessica put down the cushion and asked Carl in a soft tone, "What else are you hiding from me?"

Carl said with a serious face, "Nothing."

"Alright, I believe you." Jessica raised her chin and chose to believe him.

Carl curled his lips and pulled her into his embrace, saying, "Darling, don't think too much. Just take care of yourself."

Jessica said, "'Darling'? That's pretentious of you to say that..."

"Sure I am."
