Predestined Marriage novel Chapter 123

Jessica only worked for this talent company because it was Tip Top's rival.

However, she didn't expect that her company shamelessly took Tip Top's money and sold her to it.

Summer was also a little surprised. "It's unbelievable."

"I'm going to kill Carl now. Hold the knife for me," Jessica said with a menacing face and started the car.

Summer was lost for words.

She knew this was Jessica's grief talking. She wouldn't take it seriously.

However, she then realized Jessica was literally driving to Tip Top.

Summer turned her head to look at her and found she still didn't get over it. "Are you really going to Tip Top?"

"Of course!" Jessica's lip curled like a classic villain in movies.

"Can't you guys just talk it through?"

"I'm going to!"

It seemed to Summer that Jessica was not going to talk to Carl, but beat him instead.

However, she was unable to stop Jessica.

Jessica parked the car, got off and slammed the door shut before dashing into the Tip Top building.

However, before she could enter, she was stopped by a security guard. "Miss, may I ask who you are looking for?"

"None of your business." Jessica was so furious that she pushed him away and wanted to run inside.

Another security guard quickly walked over and looked at Jessica. He then looked at his phone and said, "Sorry, Miss. You can't go in."

Jessica raised her eyebrows. "I can't go in?"

Summer had a horrible feeling. Jessica was a bully back at school. She never failed in fights. And she now was really pissed off.

So Summer rapidly went up to hold her back. "Calm down. We're in their company."

Her resentment had blinded her good sense. She rolled up her sleeves and didn't care about how people would see her. "Anyway, I am already a client they signed. Even if I fight here, they have to put up with it."

Summer felt Jessica was right.

After all, what Carl did was wrong.

So she stepped aside.

Jessica was agile. She quickly knocked down these guards.

But Summer, who was standing back, saw clearly these guards were getting soft on her as if they were afraid of hurting her.

Jessica clapped her hands and said ferociously, "Do you let me see Carl or not?"

"They won't let you see him today." Summer picked up the phone from the ground and handed it to Jessica.

It was the interface of a chat group on the screen.

Jessica's photo was on it, below which was a message. "Boss said this woman would come here today. We can neither let her go up nor hurt her."

Needless to say, this order was from Carl.

Carl knew Jessica would come to him after he bought her agency. So he had the foresight to give this order.

Summer knew, as Jessica's friend, she should swear at Carl with her.

However, she inexplicably wanted to laugh.

Jessica cursed, "Jerk!"

Then, she left with Summer.

Inside the car, Summer said, "Carl knows you well."

Jessica said angrily, "He changed my diaper when I was little. Of course he knows me."

"Well, I guess so." Summer tried hard not to laugh.

Jessica had a bold tongue only in front of Summer.

"We were close neighbors back then. And our parents were good friends. But something happened, and..." Jessica's voice trailed off. Her face darkened.

Summer didn't ask then. She didn't want to pry into others' personal life.

It seemed Jessica was careless and kept no secrets. But she never told Summer about Carl. It must be too heavy for her to speak.

...

Jessica drove Summer to a bar.

This bar was run by someone in show business. Most of the frequent guests were celebrities, so it was very private.

Jessica booked a private room and swore at Carl while drinking with Summer.

Jessica had taught Summer how to drink. So they both had great tolerance to alcohol.

Summer knew Jessica was in a bad mood and would drink more. Therefore, she just drank a little. She needed to stay awake and take her back home.

While they were drinking, the door of their room was suddenly opened.

A woman stood at the door, all tarted up. She looked at Jessica and raised her eyebrows, smiling, "There you are, Jessica. Someone told me you were here and I didn't believe it. It's really you."

As the woman spoke, she walked towards them.

As she approached, Summer found her familiar.

She thought Jessica knew her, so she gave Jessica a slight push.

Jessica was already half drunk. She narrowed her eyes and looked at the woman. After a long while, she asked, "Who are you?"

The woman seemed to have never thought Jessica wouldn't recognize her. Her face darkened and she said sulkily, "I am Laura Cotton."

Laura Cotton?

Summer remembered her name that she often saw on the hot lists and entertainment stories.

She got a lot of exposure these days.

However, there was a big difference between real person and her photos.

Jessica thought for a moment. And the name finally came back to her. She nodded and said, "Oh, sorry, I didn't recognize you. You were wearing too much makeup."

Laura gradually calmed down.

Then Jessica said unexpectedly, "You are different from when I saw you last time. Did you adjust your jawbone?"

Hearing this, Laura touched her face in shock. She looked at her as if she wanted to eat her alive.

Summer knew Laura was not kind. She walked forward and stood in front of Jessica. "Sorry, she was drunk."

Laura narrowed her eyes and asked, "Who are you?"

Just as Summer was about to speak, a group of people suddenly rushed in.

"Laura, there you are. We've been looking for you."

Laura turned around and smiled to them. "Guess who I met."

These people walked in. A man standing in the front said in a weird tone, "Isn't this Jessica?"

Summer frowned slightly. Laura was obviously here to cause trouble.

"We're all friends. Let's party together. Are you okay with it, Jessica?" Laura smiled and looked at Jessica. What she was up to was all written on her face.

Jessica once took an acting opportunity away from her.

The role that Laura got after all that trouble was taken by Jessica easily.
