Chapter 1413:
Roland doubted it.
“If he marries someone he doesn’t love, | swear I'll march right up and knock ssense into him!” Jessica
declared fiercely.
“All bark and no bite,” Roland said knowingly. “If that really happened, you'd probably just lock yourself in your
room and cry.”
Jessica narrowed her eyes at him. How could he say that?
“We'll give you time. But if he ends up marrying someone else, you're going to have to listen to us. We'll find
someone for you. Someone decent,” Roland said. “Your mom and | can’t just sit back and watch you go through
life all by yourself.”
“Fine,” Jessica said, though her voice lacked conviction.
She had zero plans of marrying anyone she didn’t love. To her, marriage only meant something if both people
truly cared for each other.

her thoughts pressing down. She fiddled with her phone, then quietly posted, “So sad.” Only one person could
see it—Mel.
Within ten minutes, Melvin messaged her. “What's wrong?”
She played dumb and replied with a question mark.
He quickly replied, “I saw your post. Did something happen?”
She sent a voice note, her tone playfully miserable. “I confessed to the guy I like, and he shotdown. So now
I'm being reckless and marrying someone | don’t even care about.”
She followed with another message. “The idea of spending the rest of my life with someone | don’t love is just
depressing. Feels like that’s going to be my reality.”
Melvin replied instantly, “Don’t make impulsive decisions. Marriage isn’t something to play around with.”
“A failed love confession isn’t the end of the world. Just keep your heart open for the next person who catches
your eye,” said Melvin.
Jessica's frustration bubbled over as she snapped, “I should just block you. You sound way too much like the guy
I'm into.”
She added, “It's easy to give advice when you're not the one hurting.”

Melvin froze, staring at his phone screen. Had she figured him out?
This was his only secret account, so he quickly typed back, “Smeetings are meant to be. If | upset you, I'm
sorry, and I'll take it back.”
Jessica let out a soft laugh. What a goof. She toyed with her phone, a playful spark in her eyes, and sent a voice
message. “Are you cute or what?”
“I'm alright,” he replied.
“Alright? That probably means you're not much to look at.”
“People say I'm decent, but | think I'm just average.”
“Prove it. Send a pic,” Jessica teased
