  "Miss Hall, may I ask why you chose the Puth Corporation? After all, we are not yet as qualified and recognized as the Borka Group in real estate industry," said Brian Larson, CEO of the Puth Corporation. He felt quite flattered.

  When Brian knew that the Hall Group intended to work with the Puth Corporation, he even rushed back to Los Angeles from California to meet with Jessica.

  "Mr. Larson, are you saying that you don't have faith in your own company?" Jessica raised her eyebrows and asked.

  Brian froze for a few seconds before he burst out laughing. He then said, "I believe we'll have a pleasant cooperation, Miss Hall."

  After Brian left, Jessica was in a very good mood. Megan and Watson tried to make things difficult for Jessica, yet they forgot that Jessica was no pushover.

  Shortly afterward, Megan learned that Jessica had replaced the Borka Group, so he called Jessica at once.

  "We have been working with the Borka Group for many years. How could you change that?"

      Given that Jessica nearly got into trouble after having dinner with Watson from the Borka Group, Jessica decided to buy her own car. That could save a lot of trouble.  Early in the morning, Jessica and Hannah arrived at Auto Mall. Jessica had decided on her future car earlier. She went to the mall for a trial. If nothing went wrong, she would just fulfill the payment.  "This one will do." Jessica nodded to the salesperson. With that, the salesperson hurried to get the receipt ready.  Jessica and Hannah had just sat down when they saw Lia Rowse walking over. She was Olivia's bestie.  "Is your friend looking for a car here, Miss Hall?" Lia greeted Jessica, seemingly politely.  Jessica knew that Lia was in Olivia's league. She didn't feel like talking to Lia, so she only nodded.  "What a coincidence! I'm here looking for a car, too. Which one did you pick, Miss Hall?"  At that time, the salesperson came back with the settled receipt and answered on Jessica's behalf, "Miss Hall o

      Jessica, Hannah, and their friends brought a great deal of attention to Mona's new nightclub through their performance. They attracted a lot of customers within a short time.  Hari was curious about Mona's nightclub as well. So he left LURE for Cloud Top. Lucas had to follow Hari as well.  Jessica drew their attention once the two of them had just entered Cloud Top. She was on the stage.  Jessica wore a white shirt and a pair of denim pants. Her outfit revealed her S—line figure perfectly.  The gull—wing eyeliner and SUQQU's new eye shadow made Jessica look attractively aloof.  A lot of passionate customers were shaking their bodies at Jessica's drum beats.  This was the second time Lucas saw Jessica on the stage. And at that moment, Jessica was like a singer performing at the Super Bowl, impressing the entire audience with her charisma.  Lucas realized that he wanted to learn more about Jessica when seeing this side of her.  But Lucas then recalled that they had already div

      "I'm also wondering what you saw in Jessica, Mr. Davison. Are you blind?"  Lucas questioned back when Hari hurriedly nudged him.  Lucas turned around, feeling quite annoyed, only to see Jessica coming back toward the nightclub. Lucas couldn't help but frown.  Jessica returned because she forgot some of her belongings at Mona's place. Thus, she returned to get her stuff back. She then happened to hear what Lucas said about her.  The moment Jessica heard what Lucas said, she felt a sting in her chest.  In their three—year marriage, Jessica believed she had done a great job as Mrs. Thomas, even though the Thomas family never stopped picking on her.  Soon Jessica pulled herself together. She walked into the nightclub with her face unchanged.  Terry then chuckled. "Everyone has their own taste. The way I see it, Miss Hall is excellent. Hopefully, she will be the future Mrs. Davison."  With that, Terry bowed slightly at Lucas and Hari before he left.  Seeing Terry driving off, Ha

      Hannah had thought about persuading Jessica to give Terry a chance. After all, Terry and Jessica had similar family backgrounds. Even if Jessica did not like Terry, she could still use Terry to annoy Lucas.  Yet when Hannah realized that Jessica was not interested in Terry at all, she never mentioned Terry anymore. Hannah then said, "There's gonna be a charity event today. You're coming, right?"  "Sure, see you tonight," Jessica replied. Although she was not interested in those social events, it was a good chance to meet some big shots in business. Jessica wouldn't miss the chance.  In the evening, Jessica came to the venue for the event in the latest high—fashion dress designed by Tomie.  The turquoise dress was decorated with numerous diamonds, and it looked like a glittering lake under the light. Jessica just entered the hall and drew a lot of attention.  When Hannah saw Jessica, she immediately came over. Hannah was a party girl and she didn't like such a formal affair.  "

      What Lucas said made Jessica feel uneasy. She was no longer in the mood for more chats. Thus, she left with Hannah.  Unexpectedly, Jessica's car broke down only a few minutes after she started it. Thus, Jessica had to pull up on the roadside.  "What the hell! Isn't this a new car?" Hannah jumped out of the car and stomped her feet angrily.  "Don't worry." Jessica comforted Hannah. She then took out her phone and called her assistant Wendy.  Wendy always did her job with high efficiency. It didn't take much time for her to contact the relevant sector to handle the malfunction. Wendy still remembered the last time they ran into those people from that MC club. Two ladies stayed on the roadside at night. That didn't sound safe.  Jessica hung up the phone and took her jacket out of her car. Just after she put the jacket on, a Maserati slowly stopped beside her car.  "Jessica, do you need help?" The window slowly rolled down, revealing Hari's smiling face.  "No, thanks. My assistan

      The next morning, Jessica started working as soon as she arrived at her office. She buried herself in a pile of documents the whole morning.  Only when Wendy knocked on the door did Jessica realize that it was already noon.  "Miss Hall, what would you like to eat for lunch?"  "Would you please pack up a sandwich for me?" Jessica closed the laptop and rubbed her sore forehead. "Oops, and a cup of iced Americano."  The Hall family was among the wealthiest families, but Jessica just went to a community high school because her parents didn't want other rich kids' ill intentions to reach her.  Thus, Jessica never took what she ate and wore too seriously. Especially at work, Jessica preferred a quick and simple meal.  After Wendy went out, Jessica's phone rang. She pressed the answer button.  "Have you had lunch yet, sweetheart?" The call was from Morgan Hall, Jessica's father.  "I just asked Wendy to buy lunch for me. What about you, Dad?" Jessica leaned back in her chair to have

      "I don't know what you are talking about!" Olivia retorted as she felt that Rebecca was gazing over with confusion in her eyes.  Jessica was not in the mood to argue with Olivia. She threw the tissue into the trash can and left the restroom.  Coincidentally, Jessica saw Lucas after moving only a few steps.  Because of what Olivia had said, Jessica did not want to talk to Lucas.  Lucas watched as Jessica passed by. He felt irritated when Jessica ignored him once again. He said coldly, "Jessica."  Jessica halted and tilted her head slightly to look at Lucas. "What can I do for you, Mr. Thomas?"  Unlike before, Jessica's eyes were icy cold when she looked at Lucas now. Lucas felt upset about it.  "Terry pursued you because of me. Please stay sober."  Sober? Jessica felt that her least sober moment was when she decided to marry Lucas three years ago.  "Thanks for your reminder, Mr. Thomas. But we have divorced now. I hope you and your family can stay away from me."  Jessica th

      Since Terry beat Jessica on horseback, Jessica agreed to attend the event as his plus—one.  After that, Terry didn't pester Jessica. Instead, he rode away on his horse.  Hannah caught up with them. She clicked her tongue as she saw Terry off. "What exactly is going on between the two of you?"  "No biggie. I was racing with him and I lost." Jessica looked at Hannah and said flatly.  "No way! You are the student of a horsemanship champion. How could you lose?" Hannah widened her eyes in disbelief.  "There is always someone better." As Jessica spoke, she suddenly recalled the way Terry gazed at her. Her mind was somehow muddled with emotions.  After lunch, Jessica and Hannah went shopping together.  Hannah dragged Jessica to a luxury fashion shop. When Hannah showed her VIP card, the salespeople all came over, eager to serve them.  Suddenly, a snide female voice chimed in. "Who on earth is there? What a pomp!"  Jessica found the voice familiar. She thus couldn't help but look

    Jessica stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Larkspur. They were standing a little over two meters apart, and she just stood there without any intention of approaching. "Really? But I don't know what else I can do to help you."If it were in the past, Larkspur would have already cursed Jessica in response to her words. But today, she did come for a reason, so she could only pretend not to understand the sarcasm in Jessica's words, “This matter, indeed, only you can help me."Jessica pursed her lips and said, "So it seems like you didn't just happen to pass by and see me, you came here on purpose, didn't you?"Jessica directly pointed out her purpose, and Larkspur awkwardly smiled, "I did come to find you today."Upon hearing her words, Jessica clicked her tongue and said, "If you came to see me for business matters, I think you should make an appointment with my secretary. I just told you earlier that I have a meeting later, and I am tired right now. I don't want to hear anythi

    Jessica was indeed sober, and she obediently loosened her mouth upon hearing his words.The couple had not had any intimate moments since they found out about the pregnancy. One reason was their busy schedule, and the other was that it was not suitable during the early stages of pregnancy.After two months, although it couldn't be completely enjoyable, it could be considered a slight relief.Coming out of the bathroom, Jessica's face was all flushed.After she became pregnant, she particularly enjoyed holding Terry. She didn't know why, but she just felt that holding him was very comfortable and joyful.Terry carried the person to the bed and laid them down. Seeing her looking at him, his eyes darkened, "Hmm?""I wanted to drink water."She spoke and subconsciously pursed her lips.The aftertaste had not yet faded, and Jessica's lips were tinged with red from the inside out. With a slight pursing, she resembled a peach blossom in March, glistening with dew.Terry looked and swallowed

    After dinner, the two of them went downstairs for a walk.On a warm evening in mid-May in LA, Jessica spent an hour leisurely strolling outside. When she returned home, her back was covered in a thin layer of sweat.She was not someone who was afraid of heat, but this year she inexplicably became afraid of heat.Terry handed her a cup of warm water and walked into the kitchen with the newly bought watermelon.Jessica sat on the couch, still sweating, and she didn't feel like moving, not even to drink water.The air conditioner was turned on in the room, and it was pleasantly cool. After sitting for a while, she gradually recovered.I got up and walked to the kitchen to wait for Terry to juice the watermelon. Nearly ten kilograms of watermelon is too much for two people to finish. So we juiced two cups of watermelon juice and there was still half of the watermelon left. Terry was scooping out watermelon balls.Jessica had used the small tool and watched Terry digging. She couldn't help

    Caspian and Astrid watched as Jerry entered the room. The two exchanged a glance, and Astrid spoke first, "I did as you instructed..."Is it that she is going to be blamed for what is happening now?Caspian looked at Astrid and asked, "How do you think I should talk to the president?"Astrid smirked and said, "How would I know?"Astrid was thinking about whether to sell Caspian, but in the company, the decision-making power is currently in Caspian's hands. She is just a junior minister, so even if she sells Caspian, she won't gain any benefits.Caspian looked at Astrid and was also thinking about how to push her out and make her take the blame.But he also knew that Astrid would not willingly take the blame.If he had pushed Astrid to take the blame, Astrid would have turned around and exposed their affair, and he wouldn't have been able to get away with it.Weighing the pros and cons, Caspian couldn't come up with a perfect solution, “It's getting late, let's go back and rest.

    The woman left quickly, Terry brushed off the coldness on his face, and looked back at Jessica in the video on his phone, saying, "She's gone."Jessica clicked her tongue and said, "You were quite lucky."Terry knew that she did it on purpose, but just smiled and said, "Shouldn't you go take a shower?"Jessica got off work today and it was almost ten o'clock when she returned to her apartment. She had a video call with Terry for a while, and at this time, it was indeed time to take a shower."Got it, I'll hang up first.""Okay, let me know after you have finished taking a shower.""Um."As the screen went black, Terry's face also turned cold.

    Jessica immediately blocked the number, and Terry, who was standing beside her, asked, "What happened?""The high school classmate I ran into at the hospital entrance this morning."Terry raised an eyebrow and said, "So how did they manage to blacken someone?"Jessica glanced at him and snorted, "He doesn't look like a good person."Terry wanted to say something, but the green light ahead turned on.He averted his gaze and started the car to move forward.When I got home, Hannah happened to send a message asking when she and Terry were planning to go on their honeymoon.Hannah didn't know that she was pregnant, and Jessica didn't plan on letting so many people know right now.Terry also planned not to have an excessive honeymoon.
