Basil Jaak looked in Jessica Flack's direction and couldn't contain his surprise. "Damn it," he exclaimed as he quickly withdrew his hand from Krystal Flack. He gave Jessica a sheepish smile and said, "That... it's a total coincidence, just a coincidence!"
"Is there such a big coincidence in the world?" Jessica scorned Basil, not hiding her irritation.
At this point, Jessica's sister, Krystal had lost her usual carefree demeanor. Instead, she blushed slightly, resembling a bashful bride-to-be. She lowered her head and explained to Jessica, "Sister, me and... Jaak, really, really... there's nothing between us.."
Her explanation only served to increase Jessica's misunderstanding.
"Hmph!" Jessica snorted coldly, casting a disdainful glance at Basil and Krystal.
