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 phJessica 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
"Okay, thank you," Jessica replied and left the restaurant. Although she looked calm, she was quite surprised deep down. Lucas left because he didn't feel well? What on earth happened to him? Jessica was once Lucas' wife after all. As far as she knew, he never put his health first. He wouldn't have left if he only felt slightly uncomfortable. If Lucas had left because Jessica was late, he must have thought of a better excuse. Jessica stood at the door of the restaurant and thought for a while. She didn't think rushing to the Thomas villa was proper, so she called Lucas. To her surprise, Hari answered the phone. "Mr. Hartley?" "Miss Hall, what happened?" Hari's voice sounded unusually indifferent. Jessica paused and continued to ask, "Sorry, I was late today. When I went to the restaurant, I heard from the waitress that Mr. Thomas left because he felt unwell. I'm just calling to check how he's doing now."
After a day of work, Jessica was dragged to Cloud Top by Hannah again. Mona didn't return to New York to celebrate Jessica's birthday due to work, so she invited Jessica to have free drinks tonight. They drank some alcohol and were kind of dizzy when they left the nightclub. "I'll call Wendy to pick us up." Jessica looked at her tipsy friend and took out her phone. She felt slightly sorry to ask Wendy to pick them up late at night. Jessica was just about to call Wendy when Hannah bumped her hand. "What's the matter?" Jessica snorted. "Look who's there." Upon hearing Hannah's words, Jessica raised her head and saw Terry approaching quickly. Hannah snorted and said to Jessica, "I have to say, Mr. Davison is really good at pursuing girls." Jessica raised her eyebrows and looked at Terry, who had walked up to her. "What a coincidence, Mr. Davison." "Not really. I came to fetch you home." The sincere smile on
Terry chuckled. "It's not that you don't like playboys. Jessica, you just don't like feeling insecure. If I am honest with you, will you think that I'm a little more reliable?" Jessica smiled and said, "I don't think I'm that unconfident." "Really?" Terry curled his lips. "Then you should try accepting me. Maybe you'll gain some unexpected results, right?" Jessica looked straight ahead. "But I'm more interested in earning money now. Mr. Davison, aren't you so?" "True that." Terry answered and then added after a pause, "But earning money and pursuing you are not contradictory." Jessica smiled and didn't say anything else. Terry's comeback gave her a headache. Jessica rather hoped that Terry had admitted defeat that night and then gave up. Jessica wasn't sure if she would fall in love with another man, but she didn't think she had any feelings for Terry. The car soon stopped at Jessica's apartment, but Terry didn'
If Jessica knew that she would run into the two men about to start a fight, she would rather ask a neighbor for help than come downstairs herself. She fell asleep, but period pain bothered her due to the recent intensive schedule. Jessica rummaged around the apartment, only to find there were no painkillers at home. She decided to go out and buy some. As soon as she walked out of the apartment, Jessica unexpectedly saw Lucas and Terry fighting on the empty walkway. They were going to fight again. Jessica glanced at Terry and said, "Go on." She took a step and walked to the side. Terry pursed his lips and glanced at Lucas. "You're lucky today!" Terry soon caught up with Jessica. "Are you feeling OK?" Jessica hurried downstairs. She was wearing a random dress picked from the wardrobe. The wind blew and the hem of the dress touched Terry's calf. Jessica raised her eyebrows. "I need to buy something." She sto
"You don't feel well?" Lucas helped Jessica to the sofa and had her seated. He looked down at her with a frown. Jessica held the sofa. "Could you please get me a glass of water?" "Sure." Lucas let go of Jessica and then turned to pour a glass of water from the water dispenser. Jessica sat up on the sofa and reached out to take over the glass and said, "Thank you." Normally, Jessica wouldn't have let Lucas enter her place. But today, Jessica was not feeling well and she did not have the strength to argue with Lucas. Lucas did not speak and just brought the glass to her lips. Jessica glanced at Lucas. She was too weak to snatch it, so she pressed down on the glass and took a sip of water. Lucas looked at Jessica with his head bent. It had only been a few hours since he last saw her, yet Jessica seemed to be a different person. Her face looked extremely pale and her lips were dark. She looked so unwell. Afte
When Jessica woke up the next day, she felt much better. Although there was still mild pain, it was endurable. Jessica had a meeting early in the morning, so she woke up a little earlier than usual. She thus arrived at the company early. Wendy came in as soon as Jessica sat in her chair. "Good morning, Miss Hall." "Good morning, Wendy." "Miss Hall, do you want to suppress the gossip online?" Although Jessica didn't do or say anything, as the "female lead", she naturally drew a lot of attention. People commented on her. In fact, most of the people were not judging. They were just discussing which guy Jessica should choose. Some buzzkills did mention Jessica's three—year marriage with Lucas, though. But most of them were just idle beholders looking for juicy gossip. Jessica wasn't bothered. "Leave it be." Wendy nodded. "I see, Miss Hall." Most of the netizens were partial to Terry and Wendy saw no har
Hannah looked up at him and struggled to hold back her tears.After Eden put her in the car, closed the car door, took two steps back, and stood beside Georgia, they watched her.The car windows were wide open, and Hannah looked at her parents from inside the car. She had always believed that she wouldn't cry on a day like this, but her eyes turned red in an instant.I don't know why, even though it wasn't a long-distance marriage, Kendall and she were childhood sweethearts who knew each other inside out, but she still felt a bit melancholic.Maybe it's because after getting married, one would have two additional identities.However, Gemma has already passed away, and the mother-in-law relationship was completely non-existent for her.In the morning, Hannah was talking about Georgia, who had shallow eye sockets. Now, her eyes are also red, and she is wiping the tears from her eye sockets with a tissue.The scene was actually quite liv
Kendall saw Hannah nod and had already locked in four numbers.He pursed his lips and said, "Is it related to my birthday?"Hannah nodded again, and the only common number between their two birthdays was 2.Kendall did not ask the third question and directly gave the answer: 2.Mona laughed and said, "You guessed pretty accurately."Hannah drew another card, the questions could not be repeated, the two questions from earlier could not be asked again.But this didn't pose a challenge for Kendall, as he directly asked Hannah if the cards in her hand were unrelated to today's date.Today is October 17th, and he was able to eliminate three numbers all at once. If he was lucky, the answer would be among these three numbers.Hannah's expression changed, she pursed her lips, and then she spoke, "No."Kendall, however, suddenly laughed and said, "It was 7."The groom's confident words made the groomsmen behind him feel sk
The members of the groom's party were eager for a quick resolution, and their first question was how many red envelopes it would take to open this door.If the gatekeeper was someone else, maybe the other person could have easily unlocked the gate by adding a few more codes.But the gatekeeper was Jessica, no matter how many red envelopes were handed to her, she remained unmoved.Finally, the people outside had no choice but to beg for mercy: "Ms. Hall, just tell us, how can we open this door today!"Jessica curved her lips and said slowly, "Simple, let Kendall speak."As soon as she finished speaking, Kendall outside the door spoke up, "What do you want?""I had no demands, I asked you three questions, and if your answers satisfied me, I would open the door and let you in.""You asked."Kendall was determined to open this door. Even if Jessica had asked three questions, or even thirty questions, he wouldn't have minded.
Hannah rarely had insomnia, and she didn't fall asleep until almost 2 o'clock in the morning after lying down around ten o'clock.The next day, before six o'clock, Georgia woke me up. Her eyes couldn't open, and she kept yawning as she opened the door.Georgia was very puzzled when she saw her like this, "I let you go to bed before ten o'clock last night, why are you still so tired?"Hannah raised her hand and yawned, feeling guilty: "I went to bed after 11 o'clock, and I even woke up in the middle."Georgia sighed and said, "Go wash your face and brush your teeth, the makeup artist has arrived."Hannah was pushed into the bathroom and stood in front of the mirror for a while before she started washing her face and brushing her teeth.Cold water splashed onto her face, and after coming out of the bathroom, she felt much more awake, but the drowsiness was still irresistible.The makeup artist and cameraman had arrived, and they were ju
After saying that, Hannah only realized that her words were a bit straightforward.Her face grew hot and she quickly changed the subject, saying, "Shall we go to the cemetery this afternoon?"Kendall looked at her for a while before speaking, "Okay."Hannah was pregnant, so naturally she had to tell Gemma.If it had been discovered earlier, Gemma might have known about Hannah's pregnancy.But in this world, many things do not have "ifs". Some things just cannot be perfect.After the two of them had lunch at the Howell family, Hannah took a nap and then they left around two o'clock to go to the bridal shop to have the size altered.Afterwards, Hannah went to the flower shop and bought a bouquet of peonies, and she went to Western Cemetery with Kendall.After Gemma passed away, Kendall's grandfather had originally planned to take her back to their hometown for burial, considering that Gemma had spent her whole life trapped within
Hannah was held by him for a while and felt a bit hot. Unable to resist, she pushed him lightly and said, "It's a bit hot."Upon hearing her words, Kendall placed her back on the bed and asked, "Did you tell Jaylen and them?"Hannah shook her head and said, "No, you're the dad, so of course I have to tell you first."She said, pausing for a moment, "I will tell them at dinner tonight.""Okay."Kendall looked down at her belly, but this month she didn't show at all, and there was nothing to see.He looked for a while and then said, "Go to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow."Hannah thought the same way, she didn't even know how long she had been pregnant.If we count from the last menstrual period, she has been pregnant for at least two months.In the past two months, she didn't feel anything at all.Hannah nodded and suddenly felt a bit tired, opening her mouth and yawning.Seeing her like this, Kendall g
Kendall glanced at her sideways and said, "Isn't it obvious?"Hannah, of course, knew that he was looking at her, but she just wanted to ask and confirm."This photographer was quite good at taking photos."Kendall's gaze was quite affectionate.She looked at the photo for a while again, and then happily put it down and looked at other photos.However, there was only one photo that was captured so well, the rest were mostly intentionally posed and the outcome was good.Hannah had been flipping through hundreds of photos for over three hours when Kendall finally took the album from her hands and forcefully carried her away, saying, "Go take a shower, if you don't shower now, you won't be able to wake up tomorrow."Hannah hooked her arm around his neck, raised an eyebrow, and looked at him. "Don't you like the photo? Why aren't you looking at it?""There was plenty of time to take a slow look later."Hannah clicked her ton
Hannah was really happy today. The news of Gemma's passing had been affecting her and Kendall's mood these past few days.When I returned to the company today, I learned that we had signed such a big project. Naturally, everyone was happy no matter who it was.During the dinner, Hannah drank a bottle of beer and couldn't drive back home, so she had to ask Kendall to come and pick her up.More than two months ago, she and Kendall announced their marriage by sending out wedding candies, and everyone knew about the wedding.However, many people in the company had never seen what Kendall looked like. After the dinner, they all gossiped and stood on the roadside, waiting for someone to show up.Hannah rarely felt embarrassed, "Why don't you go back? It's already late, you won't be able to wake up tomorrow.""Ms. Howell, rest assured, I set more than ten alarms. It was absolutely impossible for me to be late for work!""Was Ms. Howell worri
Hannah and Kendall returned to the villa late in the evening, feeling hungry and impatient as the takeaway they had ordered in advance had not arrived yet. They also got wet when they rushed inside."Go take a shower first."Kendall handed her a cup of warm water and gestured for her to go upstairs.The rain was pouring heavily, and it was still pitter-pattering down at the moment. Hannah also felt a bit cold.She drank a few sips of water, then she put down the cup and went upstairs to change clothes and take a shower.Hannah was both hungry and cold, so she took a hot shower and then went downstairs.Kendall just came in with an umbrella, carrying takeout. "You go ahead and eat, I'll go upstairs and change into a fresh set of clothes."Hannah walked over to the dining table and sat down, watching him take out and arrange everything.Kendall placed the chicken soup in front of her, "Drink the soup first, so it doesn't get cold
