Chapter 1460 Not Involved
There were fewer guests on the second floor than the first floor.
The light on the terrace was dimmer. There was only one table in the corner.
Jessica realized that the restaurant owner recognized her and Carl. He was afraid that others would
recognize them, so he brought them to the terrace where it was not so crowded.
After they sat down, the boss asked, "What kind of hotpot seasoning do you prefer?"
The restaurant owner took a glance at Jessica and Carl. It was obvious that they usually went to high-
end restaurants and rarely ate such kind of food. He asked, "Double-flavored hotpot?"
"Spicy only." Jessica said with a smile.
"Spicy..." The boss repeated to himself.
The owner ordered the hotpot seasoning for them and told them that they could get whatever they
needed by themselves. And they could ask the waiter for help if they needed it.
Before leaving, the owner seemed to think of something. He turned around and looked at Jessica.
"Were you a patron?"
Jessica smiled. "I graduated from the Hoover Film Academy. I often came here with my friend when we
were studying here."
Upon hearing what she said, the owner suddenly realized something. "Oh you remind me. You used to
come here with a girl. She was not as beautiful as you. At that time, my wife told me you were so
beautiful that you would become famous someday. She got it right..."
When they were in university, Summer wasn't so pretty. The boss wouldn't say directly that Summer
was not as beautiful as Jessica.
Or maybe Jessica was so beautiful that she outshined Summer. The contrast was so sharp that the
boss remembered Jessica. Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
In this self-serviced hotpot restaurant, guests were supposed to get their food by themselves. Jessica
took Carl to get the dishes after the boss left.
There weren't many people, and no one noticed them.
When they went back to the dining table, the hotpot seasoning was served. Jessica picked out the food
that needed to cook for longer time and put them into the pot.
Carl asked, "You used to come here often?"
"Yes." Jessica was still holding the dishes in her hand and said, "I used to eat here with Summer."
Thinking of the past, Jessica couldn't help smiling, "You know, I couldn't eat spicy food as a kid. After
Summer took me here time and time again, I got used to spicy food gradually."
Carl looked down and whispered, "Yeah."
There was a sigh at the end of his whisper.
During those years when he was away, Jessica stayed with someone else. She had new hobbies and
developed new eating habits.
Even if it was Summer, he still felt jealous.
Afterward, Carl was full of regret.
He regretted being so cowardly at that time.
Jessica did not notice the change in Carl's emotions and continued talking about the past.
"You don't know how unreasonable the Jarretts were at that time. Summer had worked hard to earn
money when she was at college. I knew her life was hard, so I managed to invite her to dinner. But she
was stubborn. She insisted on buying me dinner, too.”
“So, I chose this hotpot restaurant, which costs less but the food here was delicious. We came here
often after that..."
As the seasoning soup boiled, the vapor rose. Carl couldn't see Jessica's face clearly.
In the year he left, Jessica was eighteen years old.
In the year he returned, Jessica was already twenty-four years old.
The twenty-four-year-old Jessica had graduated from university and made her debut in the
entertainment industry.
During these six years, Jessica went through college entrance examination, life in college, graduation,
and got her first job offer...
Carl was not by her side when these major events in her life happened.
