  Terry gazed at Jessica for some time before he finally said, "She is not my girlfriend."

  Jessica felt a bit surprised to hear that at first. She then smiled and said, "Actually, Mr. Davison, you really don't need to explain it to me."

  Terry also smiled. In silence, he stared straight at Jessica as if he wanted to see through her. Jessica felt a little uneasy under his scorching gaze.

  Jessica lowered her head slightly and said, "I'm still in the middle of something. I'll head out now. See you, Mr. Davison."

  Terry did not speak. He stood where he was and watched Jessica leave, drowned in his own thoughts.

  "What on earth do you want?"

  A man's voice cut in from behind Terry. Terry sneered when he turned and saw the man behind him. "I thought Mr. Thomas was a gentleman. I didn't expect you to eavesdrop on others."

  "You've been targeting me since high school. Whenever I want to develop a business, you'll interfere. Business is business, b

      Justin looked a bit embarrassed when he heard Lucas. Justin then tossed a sharp glance at Olivia.  "Olivia has been quite willful and always provoked Jessica. That was Olivia's fault. You don't need to worry about that. Marry Jessica again and leave Olivia to us."  Justin looked at Olivia and said, "Last time, I only locked you up in the Black House for three days. If you stir up any trouble again, you'll see how hard your life can be."  Olivia was very surprised and dissatisfied when Justin made her sound like a troublemaker. She wanted to refute, but when she heard Justin's warning, she lost the guts. She snorted and said, "I won't, grandpa."  "Alright, Lucas, come with me." Justin stood up and said to Lucas.  Lucas nodded to Rebecca and followed Justin to the study.  Dwayne helped Justin to the sofa in the study and left.  Lucas closed the door and walked to Justin.  "What do you think about remarrying Jessica?"  Lucas didn'

      Jessica's birthday party was held at the Ritz—Carlton New York, Battery Park Hotel, a five—star triple—A hotel.  The banquet was extremely grand. Jessica was wearing an ice—blue gown decorated with pearls, and the makeup on her face was exquisite. She walked up to Lucas and Terry with a smile. "Mr. Davison, Mr. Thomas, thank you for coming to my birthday party."  Jessica put on a proper smile, both polite and distant.  Lucas looked at Jessica. He felt a sting in his heart when he saw the distance in Jessica's bright eyes.  Terry didn't seem to mind that. He raised his goblet and clinked it against Jessica's. "Miss Hall, you look stunning tonight."  Jessica smiled. "Thank you."  Lucas, who was standing over, only found the scene annoying. He tightened his grip on his goblet.  Lucas tried to say something nice to Jessica, yet he just didn't have Terry's glib tongue.  In the end, Lucas said nothing.  Most o

      Although Morgan didn't say much, the guests could still tell from the way Morgan looked at Jessica that he loved his daughter very much.  Besides, the assets of the Hall family were priceless. It would be hard to tell how much money Jessica would possess.  Morgan always protected his daughter well. No one had ever found out who Morgan's daughter was unless Jessica told them about her identity herself.  Although some had made a guess, the guests still made some noise when they heard it from Morgan.  "So she is Morgan's daughter. She is so beautiful, like a star."  "What are you talking about? Miss Hall is much nobler than a star. Think about how much money she has now! Billions!"  "I heard that Miss Hall is still single now? I wonder if she has any intentions to wed for business's sake."  Discussions broke out among the audience. On such an occasion, everyone tried to say something nice.  The smile on Morgan's face deepened. After he

      Jessica turned to leave. Suddenly, she heard a bang from behind.  The loud noise attracted people's attention even from the venue. Some noticed Terry and Lucas and were about to come over to have a look.  Jessica didn't want the two to make a fuss. Thus, she had to return and keep an eye on the two men. They were beating each other hard.  Jessica said angrily, "It's my birthday today. Is this how you guys celebrate my birthday? By blowing it?"  Terry and Lucas both stopped.  Those who had noticed the noise came over first. They had already seen Lucas and Terry fighting. Later, more people came over.  Jessica didn't feel like interfering, but she didn't want to embarrass Morgan. After all, a lot of big shots and celebrities in the circle showed up tonight.  Thus, Jessica asked Hannah to split the two. Jessica called the waiters to help dismiss the guests.  Suddenly, a guest cried out. Jessica looked over and saw Lucas leaning at the f

      At midnight, Hari was alone at the terminal building of Los Angeles Airport.  He checked the time again. Lucas' flight should have arrived, yet Hari still hadn't caught sight of Lucas.  The news of Terry and Lucas fighting over Jessica had been widely spread.  Hari couldn't believe what he had just heard.  The way Hari saw it, Lucas was the kind of person who rarely revealed his emotions. How could Lucas get himself into a fistfight at such a grand party?  Finally, the loudspeaker sounded again.  And Lucas arrived.  "Lucas, here." Hari waved his hand, and Lucas walked over to him.  Just as Hari was about to start gossiping about what happened tonight, his gaze fell on Lucas' face. Hari froze a bit. "Did you really get into a fight with Terry?"  With that, Lucas tossed a cold glance at Hari.  The coldness in his golden eyes made Hari shiver. It had been some time since Hari last saw Lucas with that sullen look.  Yet

      No one knew who posted the video of Lucas and Terry fighting each other online, but the video soon spread widely in the business circle in LA.  After Justin knew about it, he immediately asked Dwayne to call Lucas, but no one answered.  Justin was so angry that he couldn't sleep. He then called Morgan to apologize, and sat in the study until 11 o'clock.  Justin usually went to bed at around ten o'clock, but now it was almost midnight. Dwayne couldn't help but remind Justin, "Mr. Thomas, it's almost twelve o'clock."  Justin looked up at Dwayne. "My phone, please."  Dawyne knew Justin was going to call Lucas again, so he brought the phone from the desk to him.  Justin took the phone, put on his reading glasses, and searched for Lucas' number.  Meanwhile, in the ward.  Hari finally stopped yakking so that Lucas could enjoy the tranquility. However, the tranquility didn't last long before Lucas' phone rang.  Lucas glanced at his ph

      Jessica was a little surprised when she saw Lucas' apology on Twitter. Jessica never expected that Lucas would publicly apologize to her.  Jessica suddenly felt that she never knew Lucas.  Hannah found Lucas strange, too.  "Jessica, do you think Lucas' account was hacked?" Hannah sent another message when she saw her message was marked read.  Jessica was just about to reply when a call came in. It was Lucas.  "Good morning, Mr. Thomas. What can I do for you?" Jessica hedged a bit before she picked up the phone.  "Good morning, Miss Hall." Lucas sounded somewhat weak. "I'm sorry about what happened at your birthday party. I hope I can make it up by treating you to dinner."  Jessica raised her eyebrows and said, "Mr. Thomas, didn't you already make a public apology? You don't have to take me to dinner."  "A public apology is just my attitude, but it doesn't mean that you must forgive me. For the future cooperation between our two famil

      It rained in downtown LA. As soon as Jessica opened the car door, she immediately felt a chill.  Jessica was distracted for a moment before a coat fell on her shoulders.  Jessica turned around and saw Terry standing beside her, holding an umbrella. He reached out and said, "Miss Hall, let me help you get out of the car."  Jessica looked at Terry's hand and hesitated for a moment. She didn't put her hand on it. She got out of the car directly.  Terry didn't mind that. He retracted his hand and waited for Jessica to get out of the car before he closed the door.  The two walked into the mall together. Jessica saw a row of claw machines in the arcade and could not help but stop. "Did you bring me here to catch a doll, Mr. Davison?"  "Don't you like it?" Terry tilted his head and smiled at her. "Miss Hall, you can have fun today. Just take it as another birthday party for you."  "Maybe next time. I don't have much time today." Jessica raised he

    Hannah fell silent for a moment, looking at Paige in front of her, and took a deep breath. "So, what did you come to see me for today?"Paige's emotions had stabilized, and so much time had passed since everything happened that she had no choice but to accept it, even if she didn't want to."I wanted to come and say sorry to you. Three years ago, I suddenly brought people to find you and caused you a lot of harm.""It has already passed, you don't need to care about it anymore."Paige looked at Hannah and hesitated for a moment, "You also had the right to know about this matter.""Thank you."Hannah's mood was completely disrupted like this, "If there's nothing else, I'll have my assistant send you."She had not fully processed this matter yet, and when facing Paige, she did not know what she should say.This time, Paige did not insist on staying any longer, “Today, I bothered you."She stood up and bowed deeply to

    Foster had no shame, while Hannah dared not lose her own face.His words did hit the nail on the head, and Hannah dared not move. She even kept her head down, afraid that someone might take a video and upload it online, which could lead to Jessica, Mona, and others recognizing her.Foster's car was parked in a nearby parking lot. He carried her over a small path and they arrived at the car after a few steps.Hannah struggled for a moment, but couldn't break free, and could only watch as he put her into the car.Hannah had been taking the stomach-aiding and digestion-promoting pills for several minutes when she started to hiccup. As she was fastening her seatbelt, she hiccuped twice. Coincidentally, Foster walked in from the side and watched her. Although he didn't say anything, Hannah could see the amusement in his dark eyes.Her face stiffened for a moment, and she glared at him, saying, "What are you laughing at? Haven't you seen someone hiccup before?"Making a mountain out of a mo

    Foster glanced at her and didn't have any objections, “I'll listen to you."Hannah stopped talking and walked here for nearly twenty minutes, feeling tired and hungry.The thin slices of pork belly were quickly grilled to perfection. Hannah has always loved eating grilled meat. She is the kind of person who would rather gain weight herself than miss out on enjoying a good meal of meat.She didn't speak, a piece of grilled meat wrapped in lettuce, topped with sauce, and then she stuffed it into her mouth.Foster looked at her as she put the meat into her mouth. Her lips were like a squirrel hiding a pine nut inside its mouth, and her cheeks were puffed up, making anyone who looked at her feel an increase in appetite.Foster rarely ate these, even during the difficult years, he didn't really touch them. When he was hungry, he would just eat a piece of bread and drink a large bottle of water.He was not like Hannah, who always seemed to have the greatest enthusiasm for food.On the contr

    Foster didn't move, just watched her.The two of them stood facing each other, neither willing to take a step back.It was the rush hour at this time. Hannah was standing inside the car, while Foster was standing outside, attracting the attention of many passersby.Joe arrived and saw Hannah standing inside the car, confronting Foster with a cold expression on her face.He hesitated for a moment before walking over and said, "Mr. Carroway?"Foster glanced at him and handed his phone to Hannah, saying, "I'll take you back, and Joe will handle the rest for you."Hannah took back her phone, "No need."She looked at the time and it had already been seven or eight minutes. Shouldn't the people from the 4S store have arrived by now?Hannah got off the car and was about to make another phone call to the person over there when she saw a trailer driving towards her."Miss Howell, I'm sorry, there was traffic on the way, so I arrived late."Hannah didn't say anything, she just told them to quic

    Hannah was also wondering when Rowan had become so humble, to the point of coming to the company specifically to apologize to her.That night, if it hadn't been for Foster coming out and mentioning Mr. Everitt, Rowan clearly didn't even want to say sorry.Hmm, that's strange.She had just wanted to call Sophia, but to her surprise, Sophia had already come in. "Miss Howell, Rowan and Abigail said they forgot to mention something."Hannah raised an eyebrow and said, "Let them in."She said it, didn't she?Rowan and Abigail turned back again, they looked at each other, seemingly discussing who should speak.Hannah didn't want to care about it at all, she tapped the table with the pen in her hand and said, "Cut to the chase, are you two playing telepathy over there?"Rowan's face stiffened, and Abigail took the opportunity to speak, “Miss Howell, you just said, that night's incident, that night has already passed, so can you please ask the influential figure behind you to go easy on the t
