  Everyone in LA all knew that Bailey, Olivia, and their circle didn't get along with Lena.

  To deal with Jessica tonight, Olivia and the others had actually worked with Lena. Jessica felt quite surprised since she was the reason why the old foes became allies. Jessica was also quite amused by their stupidity.

  Did they really think Jessica couldn't track them down if they found someone irrelevant to play the perpetrator?

  Jessica found it funny. "What dress did they prepare?"

  When it came to dresses, Hannah was even angrier. "Olivia and the others are too vicious. They did something to the dress, and the stitches were all cut. As long as you change into the dress and walk a few steps, the dress will split open! They want you to embarrass yourself here!"

  If a dress was cracked at the party, it was more than just embarrassing.

  If Jessica did fall into their trap tonight, then the Hall family would be brought up as a joke in the upper—class

      Hari felt a little guilty when Terry gazed at him. At the same time, Terry had lost track of Jessica.  Terry thought that he couldn't locate Jessica in a short time. He had done what he wanted to do anyway. Terry wanted to find an excuse to leave when he heard two screams.  Jessica thought that the show would start later, but she didn't expect them to be so impatient.  The person who splashed Jessica red wine was Lena. Before Jessica could react, Lena had already screamed.  Lena kept apologizing to Jessica. "I'm sorry, Miss Hall. I didn't see it just now! I really didn't see you! I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Your dress ... I'll take you to change into another dress."  Lena's apology was so sincere that even Jessica was embarrassed to turn her down.  Jessica raised her eyebrows and looked at Hannah, who was not far away. She smiled and said, "Okay."  Seeing Jessica agree, Lena quickly took Jessica to change her dress. Along the way, she went on ap

      Jessica, who was standing on the other side of the venue, looked at Olivia, who was coming over. She smiled and whispered, "Three, two, one..."  With that, Olivia, who was walking toward Jessica, stopped stiffly.  The back of Olivia's dress cracked open.  Bailey tried hard to pull the two pieces on Olivia's back together. Yet the other part split up faster as Bailey pulled it.  With a light snap, Olivia's dress fell to the ground like a piece of cloth.  It happened too fast. Olivia and Bailey didn't have time to respond. Even Hannah, who had already known what would happen next, didn't expect the dress to split so instantly.  This scene shocked everyone in the venue. The party suddenly became a mess.  Olivia and Bailey were in a hurry. They hurried to block Olivia.  Yet Olivia's dress broke into so many pieces. The dress had turned into a bunch of rags. The connection between the waist part and the hem broke at once.  Without t

      It all happened in an instant. When Lucas had learned about what happened to Olivia, she had already been crying for quite a while in the lounge.  The guests at the banquet today were all celebrities in the upper—class society of LA. They were business partners as well as acquaintances that also met each other at all kinds of parties. Thus, they naturally knew one thing or two about what Miss Thomas was like.  Besides, how could a dress that was worth tens of thousands of dollars get cracked up so thoroughly?  When Lucas heard it from Vincent, his face darkened.  Hari didn't know what to do to help out Olivia, who seemed to be making a fool of herself all the time. Given Lucas' terrible mood, Hari chose to remain silent.  Hari followed Lucas into the lounge.  Olivia had changed into a new dress at this time, but she still had not calmed down. She was still sitting there and crying. She was so embarrassed today.  When Bailey saw Lucas

      Jessica did not expect Lucas to ask that. She subconsciously denied it. "No."  "But that illustration." Lucas paused, he realized that his previous attitude might have made Jessica get him wrong.  Lucas then softened his tone and went on, "Don't get me wrong. I'm just saying that the illustration looks similar to the portrait of me you drew."  "Mr. Thomas, have you read that story? That story is about a 14—year—old schoolgirl falling in love with a high school boy. It had nothing to do with our marriage," Jessica said calmly.  "Then why are the two pictures so similar?" Lucas asked again.  Jessica raised an eyebrow. She did not expect Lucas to see the subtle similarities in the two pictures. She looked up at Lucas.  Jessica knew that Lucas could see her through once she hedged.  "It's OK for you to deny it. I'm just asking. Don't mind me." Lucas didn't push Jessica.  "Since you have already had an answer, why did you even

      The next day after the banquet, the news of Olivia making a fool of herself at the banquet spread throughout the upper—class society of LA.  Justin soon found out about what had happened. As the head of the Thomas family, he could not stand the fact that the Thomas family had become a laughing stock.  Olivia had to face the mockery from those socialites and Justin's anger at the same time.  "If it doesn't go off the trending topic, your grandpa would look into it," Bailey, who was grounded at home, said to Olivia on the phone.  Bailey paused for a moment and then continued, "If only something more eye—catching would happen now. Then no one would pay attention to you."  Olivia, who had hung up the phone, thought about Bailey's words carefully. Finally, she gritted her teeth and made a call.  Ever since Megan found out about Jessica's identity, he didn't pick on Jessica anymore. Thus, Jessica's work at the LA branch had been quite smoo

      Hannah was dumbfounded by Jessica's words. She looked at Jessica and asked, "Not Lucas? Then who?"  If Lucas hadn't done that, that meant Hannah had done two things wrong.  Yet Hannah decided not to haggle over it. Lucas was unarguably a bastard. He deserved the lesson.  Hannah comforted herself that way.  Jessica shook her head slightly. She had an answer in her heart, but before Wendy's investigation results came out, she did not want to say it.  Jessica looked at Hannah and sighed. "You're still so impulsive."  "When I heard Mr. Davison say it, I was so angry that I couldn't hold it in for a moment." Hannah also felt that she was a little reckless and stuck out her tongue.  After Hannah left, Vincent could only grimace as he looked at the ornaments that Hannah had broken on the ground. Miss Howell did have a temper.  Lucas sat in front of his desk as if he was unaware of the mess around him.  Lucas was still reviewing Hannah

      With that, Olivia's face darkened. Dwayne looked at Olivia and asked, "Miss Thomas, what happened to you?"  "Nothing, nothing. It's just that I'm not feeling so well now. I'll go back to my room." Olivia let out a tight laugh and quickly went upstairs to her room.  Olivia patted her chest with her hand, and after calming down a little, she called Bailey.  "Bailey, Jessica is coming to my home as a guest tomorrow. Do you think she has found out anything?" Olivia asked as soon as she got through the call.  "Did anyone see you when you met Jerry?" Bailey asked after pausing for seconds.  "No, I chose a restaurant which people of our kind won't choose," said Olivia as she recalled.  "Then what are you afraid of? Maybe she just wants to beg for forgiveness after reading the harsh comments."  Olivia thought Bailey made a fair point. She thus felt less worried.  The next day, in the evening, the whole Thomas family were sitting at the table

      When Jessica mentioned the name "Jerry," Olivia felt her heart racing with tension. She did not even dare to look at Justin.  Lucas had not returned home from his work, and Rebecca knew nothing about what Olivia had done. For a moment, Olivia did not know who to ask for help.  There was a mocking smile on Jessica's face as she looked at Olivia's pale face.  The dining room suddenly fell into a strange silence. A servant came into the dining room with the appetizer, fried foie gras with garlic and basil, at that time. She then put it on the table.  The fried foie gras emitted the fragrance of grease. Although Olivia had not had much that day because of her panic, she still acted as if she couldn't smell the fragrance of food in front of her at all.  Justin had been running the Thomas Group for so many years, so he had understood that it was Olivia who made Jessica slandered by the netizens now.  He was actually angry that Olivia always made things worse, but since Jessica was h

Jessica picked it up and watched as the little boy ran over."Miss Pretty."What a sweet little boy! Calling her pretty though it was the first time they met.Jessica raised a brow. "Aren't you a cutie pie?"She spoke as she handed the football back to the little boy.Just then, Lucas returned with an ice cream in his hand. The little boy licked his lips while watching from a distance.Jessica found it amusing and waved at the little boy, saying, "Come here."The little boy obediently ran over holding the football and said, "Miss Pretty.""Wanna eat ice cream, huh?"The little boy nodded and then shook his head.

    The two walked to a nearby restaurant for lunch. On the way back, they stopped at the zebra crossing to wait for the light. The interval was a bit long, about 100 seconds. "How about playing a little game?" Jessica was curious. "What kinda game?" "Guess whether the number of the white stripes on this zebra crossing is odd or even." Jessica instinctively glanced down and asked, "Is there a reward if I win?" "Sure." Jessica arched her brow and said, "Then what if I lose?" "When we cross the street, you're gonna give me a kiss." Jessica looked up at Lucas, figuring it was indeed something he could come up with. She shot a glance at the zebra crossing and said, "I guess it's even." "Then I guess it's odd." While they were talking, the red light across the street turned green. They exchanged a glance and both silently counted the white stripes. "11, 12, 13, 14, 15—" Once they crossed over, Jessica announced triumphantly, "And the last one, 16! It is an even number. You lost, L

      Jessica was shocked by what Wendy had said. Five years ago, it could be said to be a farce. But if Oscar did have something to do with Justin's death, it was murder.  Jessica realized how serious the whole thing was. She had instructed Wendy to gather more evidence and then hurriedly returned home.  Jessica finished reading the report Wendy had given her, and she felt that Wendy's guess was reasonable.  For the sake of certainty, Jessica called Wendy, asking her to share the report with Vincent.  Jessica sat in the living room, carefully thinking about the whole thing. She always felt that Luna wanted to marry Lucas simply for the sake of the wealth of the Thomas family.  Unlike Oscar, Luna wouldn't have gone as far as murdering.  Luna wouldn't risk going into prison. If she did end up in prison, she wouldn't be able to enjoy a luxurious life.  Therefore, it was very likely that Luna had been used by Oscar.  When Jessica thought of t

      Jessica took out a small box from the drawer and there was a necklace inside.  It was the necklace that Jessica found when she returned to that room five years ago. She had always thought it was Lucas'. Yet she later learned it belonged to Terry.  Ever since she found out that the necklace was Terry's, she had never brought it with her anymore. She kept it in the box.  Now that she looked at the necklace and had a new doubt.  Why would Terry's necklace appear in that room?  She checked the time before she called Terry.  Terry was very happy when he received Jessica's call. She rarely took the initiative to call him.  Jessica invited him out for dinner, and the two of them arrived at a steakhouse not far from the Hall Group.  When Terry arrived, Jessica was already sitting in the reserved seat. He looked at Jessica's back, and a feeling of longing surged in his heart.  He quickly walked over and looked at Jessica with a smile. "

      Oscar stood up and walked to Lucas' table. "When I become the CEO of Thomas Group, I'd love to arrange some new work for you."  "Is that so?" Lucas sneered. "Get this project done first. As far as I know, there were casualties in your first joint project with the Davison Group. If Terry weren't that eager to go against me, he wouldn't have given any project to someone like you who has no competence at all."  Oscar was utterly irritated.  He hated it when others said that he had no competence at all.  However, Lucas was now the CEO of the Thomas Group. If he beat Lucas now, Lucas would directly drive him out of the company.  He had not gotten the Thomas Group yet, so he could not make a move driven by impulse.  Yet the contempt in Lucas' eyes was like a sharp knife, stabbing at his sore point.  Oscar took a step back, looked at Lucas, and sneered after taking a deep breath.  He said, "Have a good time now. You don't get everything. If

      Although Terry rejected Oscar's request, he did give Oscar some new projects.  However, compared to the projects in the northland, these projects were really not enough.  In the recent company executive meeting, the number of people supporting Oscar had obviously decreased, and even the executive who had a relationship with Louis lost his confidence in Oscar.  This made Oscar even more annoyed. He called Terry again.  He had to reach Jessica through Terry.  "If you don't help me, I will go to the Hall Group myself. It's not like I don't know what she looks like," Oscar said bitterly.  "If you go to her, I will immediately suspend all the cooperation with you."  Jessica was Terry's bottom line. Terry wouldn't make any compromise.  After hanging up the phone, Oscar angrily pushed everything on the table to the ground, and then slammed the coffee cup. The sound of the cup shattering came from his office.  Oscar sat in his chair wi

      Jessica looked at Lucas. For the first time, Jessica didn't feel offended by Lucas' indifferent attitude. All of a sudden, she seemed to have understood what his attitude was about.  She understood that his attitude was just a disguise.  In the past, Jessica thought it was his arrogance. After all, he seemed to have owned the whole world back then.  "I didn't expect that," Jessica said calmly. "I never wanted anyone to replace you. It's just I hate it when others are plotting against my family. I believe you feel the same."  "Then what is this conversation about?" Lucas felt bitter. Even his voice became hoarse.  "I don't think you need me to teach you what to do. You are not a person who will willingly accept failure." Jessica paused for a moment before she spoke.  "But I have to accept it when it comes to you," Lucas said peacefully. The arrogant man finally admitted his failure in love.  Jessica didn't feel the pleasure of revenge at al

     Jessica was confused, but she didn't call Terry directly.  She knew that if she called Terry, he would immediately tell her what his relationship with Oscar was.  But now, she didn't know if she could believe what Terry would say.  After getting off work, Jessica and Hannah came to Mona's nightclub together.  Caesar and Lance were there today. The few of them chatted together.  Jessica had to drive back by herself, so she only ordered a glass of alcohol-free juice.  "Jessica, that Oscar seems very active recently. Do you know him?"  No one from the Thomas Group and Thomas family had appeared in their topic for a long time, and after Caesar asked this question, the others all stared at Jessica.  "To be honest, I didn't know this person before," Jessica shrugged. "Lucas' father has been living outside and he has a child. That's all I know."  Jessica wasn't lying. She felt that Olivia and Rebecca should know something, but they wou

      Oscar knew that Lucas would definitely look down on him, but he did not care. With the help of Louis, he had already obtained a management position in the Thomas Group.  "How is it, Oscar?" Louis followed Oscar to his office. Every time he saw his kid with Amanda, he felt proud.  Louis found himself useful. He just helped his son get a position.  Oscar turned to look at Louis, and the corners of his mouth curled into a self-mocking smile. "Dad, you have to know that the entire Thomas Group will finally fall into our grip."  "What are you talking about, Oscar!" Louis panicked when he heard that. He then hurriedly looked around to see if anyone was listening.  "Dad, what are you nervous about? You are grandpa's only son. The Thomas Group should have been yours."  "That may be true, but the Thomas Group is in your brother's hands now," Louis said awkwardly.  Louis wanted to make money, but he also knew he was not capable enough to run the Tho
