Predestined Marriage

Chapter 1627: Pretend Not to See

Jessica turned her face away, not looking at either Carl or the wounds on his hands.

Carl peeled an apple beside, showing no emotion. When he finished peeling, there wasn't much pulp left, or to be more accurate, only two-thirds left.

He handed it to Jessica.

It was Jessica who said that she wanted to eat an apple. Since Carl had already peeled one, Jessica took it over.

Jessica took two bites and felt full, but she still kept eating yet very slowly.

The ward was quiet. No one spoke.

Carl stared at Jessica for a moment, and then bent down to pick up the band-aid on the ground and covered it on his wound.

Noticing what Carl did, Jessica paused but soon continued to eat the apple in hand.

Though Jessica kept eating for a long time, she didn't eat much.

Carl remembered that Jessica also didn't eat much at dinner yesterday. She had a little tummy, like a bird.
