  Lucas drove steadily on the road. The two of them remained silent, and there was only the sound of breathing in the car.

  The air conditioner kind of bothered Jessica. She gave a quiet cough.

  Then, Jessica saw Lucas turn off the air conditioner and lower the window on her side.

  The night breeze blew in. Jessica took a deep breath and felt relaxed.

  "Jessica, I heard from Miss Howell that you've had feelings for me since a long time ago?" Lucas suddenly asked as Jessica was about to close her eyes and take a rest.

  Jessica could not help but chuckle when she heard that. "Is my answer important to you, Mr. Thomas? I have to remind you again that we have divorced."

  The marriage between the two had come to an end. Thus, Jessica found Lucas' question pointless.

  "In the past, it wasn't, but now, it is," said Lucas.

  Jessica could feel a ripple in her heart. She wasn't sure what Lucas meant by that.

      Jessica got out of the car and walked along the sidewalk for a while until she could no longer see Lucas' car.  Jessica called Wendy and asked her to come over to pick her up. She sent her location to Wendy.  Jessica then waited for Wendy on the roadside.  It wasn't cold at night in LA, but Jessica felt cold when the breeze blew on her face.  Jessica reached out to touch her face, only to find that she had shed tears at some point.  Jessica thought she had already left everything behind. Yet her feelings for Lucas had been lasting for years. It wasn't that easy to let go of them.  Jessica did not understand what Lucas meant. Jessica preferred Lucas to be the jerk he had always been.  Olivia waited for half an hour at the entrance of the restaurant alone before she realized that Lucas had not informed the driver. She didn't have her phone with her, so she could only ask the waiter to call her family, feeling quite embarrassed.  By the

      That night, Jessica slept very uneasily, and she dreamed of Lucas again.  The scenes in her dream switched between her life before divorcing Lucas and after that. Thus, in her dream, Lucas was sometimes cold and heartless, yet sometimes with guilt in his eyes.  When the alarm clock rang the next morning, Jessica did not immediately get up from the bed. That didn't happen often.  Lying on the bed, Jessica looked at the sunshine through the window in a daze. She then let out all the negative emotions.  She decided that neither Lucas nor Terry was more important than her own business.  Initially, Megan handed the project in North LA to Jessica because he wanted to teach her a lesson. Yet after Jessica's identity went public, Jessica took over the project naturally.  Megan couldn't make things difficult for Jessica. Instead, he had to give her full support.  Jessica was capable, and these days, she kept focusing on the project and supervising

      Jessica could tell the discontent and query in Hannah's tone. Thus, Jessica hurried to nudge Hannah, motioning her to stop.  The young lady standing next to Terry glanced at Hannah, then turned her gaze to Jessica. She smiled and extended her hand to Jessica. "Nice to meet you, Miss Hall. My name is Grace, Grace Sandoval."  Jessica could see a sense of pride flashing into her eyes. Yet it soon disappeared.  Jessica smiled. She stretched out her hand and shook Grace's lightly. "Hello, Miss Sandoval."  "Just call me Grace. That's how Terry calls me." Grace then raised a sweet smile. "Are you going to Cloud Top as well, Miss Hall? Shall we go together? Terry's treat."  "I'd rather not. We are not as idle as Mr. Davison and still have something to talk with Mona," Hannah spoke over Jessica subconsciously, regardless of her suggestions.  Terry glanced at Hannah. He found what Hannah said funny. "That's rare. Since Miss Howell has a business talk, the

      Terry, who was striding towards the entrance of the Cloud Top, stopped in his tracks when he heard Grace's words. Terry couldn't help but frown.  Terry turned to Grace and was about to speak when Grace's phone rang.  "Sorry, I have to take it." Grace smiled at Terry, and then picked up the phone right in front of him without any intention of avoiding him.  However, Terry still took a few steps back to give Grace some private space.  Terry wasn't too far from Grace. He could still hear Grace's voice but couldn't hear the sound from the other side of the phone.  "Hi, it's me. Yeah, I'm with Mr. Davison.  "Well, we're at the Cloud Top.  "I see. I see. We are heading back now. See you later."  Grace hung up the phone and excitedly walked over to Terry. She stuck out her tongue playfully and said, "It's Davy, my agent. He reminded me not to forget about my work."  Terry raised his eyebrows when he heard that. He then said to Grace s

      It was Jessica's treat at Cloud Top. Hannah wanted a bigger party, so she called Caesar and Lance over as well. They drank and danced together.  Jessica who had been working hard recently was quite relieved and the unease caused by Lucas dispersed as well.  On the way home, Hannah, who was already a little wasted, repeatedly confirmed with Jessica that her mood had not been affected by Terry. After Jessica said no, Hannah leaned against Jessica's shoulder and fell asleep.  Jessica leaned against the back of the seat and closed her eyes to get some rest. Jessica didn't feel sad because Terry turned to a new girl.  Yet Jessica still felt something. After all, Terry had been pursuing her for a few months, and he had helped her out many times.  Were it not for Jessica having just divorced and wasn't seeking any romantic relationships, things might have worked out between them.  But it was all pointless.  Jessica collected her thoughts and focu

      "Miss Hall, a call from reception said that a lady was looking for you." Wendy walked to Jessica's desk and said.  That meant someone who came here without an appointment.  So Jessica did not speak, waiting for Wendy to give her more details.  Wendy looked at Jessica and smiled, saying, "It's Miss Cheek."  Jessica felt a bit surprised to hear that. She raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, "Which Miss Cheek?"  "The younger Cheek, Luna Cheek." Wendy paused for a moment and asked, "Miss Hall, do you want to see her now?"  "Where is she?"  "In the 11th guest room on the first floor," Wendy replied.  Jessica picked up her phone and stood up with a subtle smile. "I don't think there's anything urgent for Miss Cheek to look for me. Why don't you let her rest in the guest room for some more time and we go for lunch now?"  Jessica left the Hall Group directly with Wendy and found a restaurant to dine out.  Luna's visit made Jes

      Jessica chuckled when she heard Luna's words. She really didn't see that coming.  "Did I hear you right? What, Miss Cheek? Are you a marriage counselor now? But I still have to remind you that I have divorced Mr. Thomas."  "No, Miss Hall." Luna waved her hands nervously as if she was afraid that Jessica would get her wrong. She continued, "I think there's a misunderstanding between the two of us."  "Misunderstanding?" Jessica repeated the word slowly. She saw a flash of resentment in Luna's eyes.  "Well, not precisely misunderstanding. I did something wrong and caused you some trouble because I was jealous of you. If you are still angry, I apologize to you." Luna put on her usual fragile and timid look again.  "Miss Hall, Lucas shouldn't have married you to protect me. That was his fault. But it was in the past. You've been together for three years and there must have been a bond between you two. My family is far inferior to yours, Miss Hall, and Just

      Luna raised her arm and pointed to the table. Jessica turned to look. The coffee cup at Jessica's side was indeed gone. And the empty cup on the floor was Jessica's.  Seeing that Jessica was silent, Luna turned to Lucas. "Lucas, don't blame Miss Hall. She really didn't push me too hard. It was my problem. I'm too fragile after that car accident."  "Why did Mr. Thomas suddenly come to our company? Are you here to save the beauty, big hero?" Jessica snorted as she looked at Lucas, whose face was stern and brows knitted.  "Trissy called me."  Lucas was working in his office when he received a call from Trissy.  Trissy said anxiously that Luna planned to leave LA because she was not recovering well.  And Luna wanted to do something for Lucas before leaving, so she had gone to Jessica herself.  Trissy called Lucas and told him she feared that Luna would be bullied.  After getting that call, Lucas immediately put down his work and drove to

    Jerry heard Terry's words and instinctively looked up at him.When Jerry's gaze met those peach blossom eyes, his heart felt a bit uncomfortable. "Mr. Davison, Ms. Hall is so smart, she must be able to handle it.""Is that so?"Terry lowered his head and raised his hand to cover the watch on his left hand.This is a customized couple watch made by Jessica, and there are only two of them in the world, making them unique.But as he watched the time pass by minute by minute on the watch, there was no joy in his heart. He had not seen her or heard her voice for twenty-five consecutive hours.This feeling was more painful than when he first found out that she was going to marry Lucas.He was really scared.Jerry had followed Terry for so many years and had never seen Terry like this before.

    Running during the day is much better than running at night, at least you can see the road clearly.But inside this mountain, everywhere was trees and waist-high weeds, there was simply no path for Jessica to run.Jessica didn't have much strength left; she only knew that she couldn't be caught up.But she could still hear the woman's screaming voice, knowing without a doubt that she hadn't run far.The woman was probably going to call the man. It was all grass everywhere, where did she run to, they would find her if they were a bit smarter.Jessica stopped and leaned against a tree, catching her breath while analyzing the terrain.Looking around, she couldn't see any houses, so she couldn't ask for help.Jessica hesitated whether to run towards the foot of the mountain or up the mountain.She didn't have much time to hesitate anymore, as the man's angry roar and the woman's curses behind her were reminding her that they were a

    The driver brother talked a lot. Jessica didn't know whether to believe his nonsense or not, but she was already exhausted.Fortunately, they chatted for more than ten minutes, and the taxi driver also noticed that Jessica was very tired. He handed her a bottle of mineral water and told her to take a nap. "I just finished delivering the goods and need to go home to pick up new ones. Don't mind, take a rest for a while. We will arrive at my house in ten minutes."Jessica took the mineral water and unscrewed it, then drank more than half of it directly.The elder brother driver stopped talking, and she also remained silent, turning her head to look out of the car window. She almost fell asleep several times, but she managed to hold on.The driver did not deceive him, his house was indeed just nearby. The small truck drove into a village, and Jessica got out of the car with him."Have some breakfast first. The police station is five kilometers ahead.

    Neither of the two men expected that Jessica would suddenly escape, after all, her hands and feet were tied with ropes.The two of them were chatting just now. Although they occasionally glanced at Jessica, they found that when Jessica disappeared, she had already run seven or eight meters away.Two men were in the car and they really thought Jessica had diarrhea. They felt a bit disgusted, so they closed the car door. However, they realized that she had run away when they opened the door, causing a delay of one or two seconds. By the time the two men got out of the car, Jessica had already run up the hill.Late at night, in the quietness, the outskirts of the area within ten miles seemed deserted as if there were no households around. Two men's angry shouts were closely chasing from behind.Jessica was wearing high heels on her feet, and she was not running comfortably. However, the mountain road was overgrown with weeds, and if she took off her shoes, s

    Terry directly handed the money to him and led the people over to the other side of District 3.Lucas noticed some movement over here and came over with someone. "What did you find?"Terry glanced at him and said, "Just now, a night shift employee said that around midnight, two vans drove over here."Late at night, two vans arrived here. Besides transferring Jessica and Olivia, what else could they do?Obviously, both Terry and Lucas were a step late. By the time they arrived here, it was already a little past twelve forty.Terry looked at the containers in front of him for a while, and suddenly remembered something. "When I came over, I saw two vans turning from Sea Road to the other side of Purple Road."At the end of Sea Road is the harbor, and the two vans that turned out from the Sea Road entrance are very likely the two vans that the night shift worker mentioned.Terry was the first one to arrive here. It was over 800 meters fro

    Olivia cried all day, slept soundly, and suddenly got kicked, waking up. She forgot about being kidnapped and got angry when she woke up. She yelled at Jessica, "What are you doing? Why did you kick me?""Someone came, don't speak."Olivia heard the noise outside and also realized it. She moved in a panic next to Jessica and said, "Yes, I'm sorry, I just woke up."Jessica didn't say anything; she had a very bad feeling.Soon, the container was opened again.This time, among the visitors, Luna was not present, only four men were there.They held flashlights and shone them into the container. They took a look and then immediately looked down at their phones.Jessica's heart sank in an instant, and she whispered to Olivia, "They are going to move us to another place later. Be careful not to give anything away. Make sure they don't find out that the ropes on our hands and feet are not properly tied."Olivia's face turned pale as so

    "Lucas, long time no see. I heard that Justin passed away, what a pity. I didn't have the chance to attend the funeral, after all, it was extremely difficult for me to escape from Justin's clutches. Your sister and Jessica are both in my hands, don't worry, they are doing well now and I'm in a good mood. However, you don't have much time left to relax. You should think carefully about what is more important to you, the person you love or your own sister."The signature is Luna.After reading the message, Lucas' face immediately darkened. "Vincent, look up Luna for me!"Terry glanced at him, but did not ask Jerry to check on Luna.Luna dared to send the message to Lucas' phone, proving that she might not be in LA anymore.Jessica and Olivia must have been in LA, after all, Luna still had to let Lucas choose.Now there is finally news about Jessica, although it is not good news, it is still better than knowing nothing at all.Terry look

    It was ten o'clock at night, and it had been eight hours and forty minutes since Jessica went missing. However, Terry had no clue at all.Afternoon, Jessica went to the bathroom. Wendy waited by the car for twenty minutes, but when she saw that Jessica hadn't come out yet, she called her on the phone. However, the line was busy on the other end.Wendy realized that something might have gone wrong. She went to the restroom to find Jessica while calling Terry. After contacting Terry, she had already reached out to the hotel manager and entered the surveillance room.The surveillance footage showed that Jessica entered the first-floor restroom at 13.11 in the afternoon and remained inside until 13.30. However, the footage did not show anyone coming out of the restroom during that time. It was as if Jessica had disappeared into thin air inside the restroom.According to the surveillance footage, it was not until 1.40 pm that a hotel guest checked out and ente

    Jessica was also very shocked after hearing Luna's words.She guessed that Justin would target Luna and her two sisters, but she didn't expect him to do such a malicious thing.Although it is true that Luna and Trissy had the wrong idea of wanting to marry into a wealthy family and live a life of ease, it does not justify intentionally luring them and causing one of them to die and the other to be injured.Luna looked at Olivia, almost gritting her teeth. "Rest assured, considering how you did treat me well before, I won't harm you for now. But whether you can survive or not, that depends on your brother!"When Luna said these words, her eyes were filled with resentment, which frightened Olivia and made her tremble all over.Luna looked at it and found it boring, so she directly pushed Olivia away.Olivia fell down, landing heavily and making a loud "thud" sound.However, no matter how loud the sound was, on such a night, in such an e
