Carl knew as long as Jessica was calm, it meant that she had thought it through and had made up her mind.

He did not expect Jessica to mention this again. He felt unnerved.

He did not react for a long time.

Jessica waited for a moment before she knew Carl didn't intend to speak. She said, "I'll go. You can go back."

She walked away.

Carl went to grab Jessica's hand. He said firmly and urgently, "There's nothing to talk about. I can't break up!"

"It's about us. You can't make the decision yourself," Carl said. Jessica was very calm. She tried to shake off his hand but failed. "Let me go."

Carl didn't let her go.

"If you want to be photographed, I'm fine too."

"Isn't it better to be spotted? I wanted our relationship to go public."
