"Jessica! Jessica..." Edward repeatedly called to the cousin who was walking in front.
Jessica didn't seem to have any intention of stopping, and she kept walking forward.
"Jessica!" Edward rushed forward and grabbed Jessica's arm.
Jessica stopped, but was silent, just staring at the ground in a daze.
"Jessica, look at me!" Edward tried to get his cousin's attention. "Jessica, brother doesn't love you, are you really so sad? You—do you really love brother so?"
Jessica remained silent.
"Jessica, I love you!" Edward's voice turned to pleading. "Even if my eldest brother changes his heart, there is still me! I've always been by your side, please take a look! Jessica—"
Jessica still didn't answer, and didn't look back at him.
"Jessica, you have always treated us equally for a long time, and you have never chosen anyone between me and brother. Could it be that at this time-you chose him?"
