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
Crossing her arms in front of her chest, Jessica watched with a faint smile as the salesgirls cut the price tags and packed up the clothes before handing them to Ellie. Only then did Jessica say to Hannah, "Let's go. Didn't you say you wanted to buy a Dior bag?" Before leaving, Jessica even asked Ellie and Zancy, "By the way, ladies, would you like to come with us? You can buy all the bags I fancy and make my shopping trip end fruitless. That's gonna annoy me so much." Zancy hurried to stop Ellie. "We have an appointment later. We are not as idle as you." With that, Zancy and Ellie hurriedly left with a pile of clothes. As soon as they left, Hannah couldn't help but laugh. "OMG, they are so stupid." "What a pity! Why didn't Miss Brown go on playing the hyper—rich girl? I could have picked a dozen bags for her," said Jessica with a snort. Hannah held Jessica's arm with a smile. "That's my smart girl." Jessica raised her eyebrows. She had always been a smart girl. Th
The Howell family and the Hawthorne family had been neighbors for so many years. When Hannah was just born, Georgia said that Kendall's mother would come to the Howell family every day, saying that she just wanted to have a daughter.Later, as she grew up a little, Kendall's mom would always mention how envious she was of Georgia for having a daughter like her.As she grew older, she even mentioned, intentionally or unintentionally, about having her and Kendall become doll siblings.However, Georgia did not agree and has always been refusing.Ever since Kendall's parents divorced, Hannah hasn't seen Kendall's mom much.I didn't expect that this time, Kendall's mom would call her directly.The person on the phone seemed to have changed, as soon as they spoke, they asked her if Kendall was with her.Hannah didn't feel anything was wrong at first, and politely explained that she was on a business trip.No sooner had she finished speaking than the woman on the other end of the phone sudde
It was a dinner party in the evening, and Hannah returned to her hotel room after 9 o'clock at night.At tonight's dinner party, she was offered quite a few drinks, even though it was just red wine with a moderate alcohol content. However, Hannah hasn't really been drinking for over half a year.At that moment, the person returned to the hotel room and didn't feel like taking a shower. They collapsed on the sofa and just wanted to sleep.Sophia worried about her and, not knowing where she got it from, made her a cup of honey water."Ms. Howell, drink some honey water slowly."Hannah squinted her eyes and looked at Sophia, then smiled and said, "Sophia, was I great today?""Yes, yes, Ms. Howell performed really well today!"Sophia had been Hannah's secretary for almost three years, so she knew Hannah quite well.During this period, Hannah suddenly made great progress, which surprised everyone in their company.Sophia knew that Hannah had a childlike personality, and she had been praisi
The train arrived at four o'clock, and Hannah and Hollis got off the train only to find that it was already dark. Both of them were momentarily stunned and asked, "Did we miss our stop?"How did it get dark around four o'clock?The wind blowing over was especially cold, and Hannah's face felt like it had been scraped by a knife. She looked at the weather forecast on her phone and said, "There will be a heavy rain today. I need to hurry, or else I'll have to spend the night at this Train Station!""It was quite cold today!"Hollis straightened his clothes and said, "Let's hurry up and go!"The two of them dragged their suitcases and walked outside. It was difficult to hail a taxi in this weather, but luckily there was a subway.Hollis had no plans to look for a job and followed Hannah back to the villa.The two of them came out of the subway station, and the rain had already stopped.Hannah took a taxi half an hour in advance, so she didn't have to wait for long.With such heavy rain,
LA in November became completely cold, Hannah made an appointment with Hollis to go to the hot springs.Hollis recently became unemployed as well, with nothing to do all day, he went to look for Hannah.Two idle people gathered together, always thinking about how to have fun every day.Hannah booked a villa just for her and Hollis. The villa had a hot spring, so they didn't have to go to a public hot spring pool to soak."Hey, I heard that Kendall was going to get engaged to that Sabrina Novak. Do you know about this?"Hannah paused for a moment with her phone in hand and said, "I haven't heard.""Did Kendall look for you before?"Upon hearing Hollis' words, Hannah glanced at her and said, "Who's been feeding you nonsense again?""My younger brother, he said that one day he saw you with Kendall, and you two seemed quite close. He originally wanted to go up and say hello to you, but then he thought it would be better not to.""Drake had a bad look in his eyes, how could the word 'intim
All of her belongings from her student days are inside the miscellaneous room at home. Georgia only allows people to organize them, but she has never thrown away any item.Hannah quickly found the gift that Kendall had given her back then. After nearly fifteen or sixteen years, the outer wrapping paper had become slightly worn.Hannah held the package and returned to the room. The adhesive tape had completely stuck the wrapping paper, and she couldn't open it, so she had to tear the wrapping paper directly.Underneath the wrapping paper, there was a gift box. She opened the box and inside, there was a bed of lavender. The first thing she saw was the postcard placed on top.Hannah raised an eyebrow, picked up the postcard, and turned it over to see the message Kendall had left for her.To say or not to say, Kendall's handwriting was quite nice.Hannah, there's something I've been hesitating about for a long time, but I feel like I should tell you. I don't even know when it started, but
That night, Kendall indeed did nothing. The two of them, rarely calm and peaceful, sat together, reminiscing about the things they had experienced in the past decade.Many things were brought up again, and Hannah realized that she had many misunderstandings about Kendall as well.For example, it was not Kendall who told Georgia about her failing mid-term exam, but Georgia went to school to bring her some snacks and casually asked about it.Back in college, the incident where Kendall switched the love letter she intended to confess with was because that senior was not a good person. Kendall knew that she wouldn't listen if she told her, so she took matters into her own hands.The two of them chatted until after three in the evening. Hannah didn't even know how she fell asleep, but when she woke up, Kendall was already not in her villa.The mess on the desk has been tidied up, and everything on it is neatly arranged. Under her water cup, there is a takeout receipt, on which Kendall left
The box was just sitting there on the side, and Hannah found it to be in the way. She had just put on gloves to eat the crayfish, but she couldn't resist and took off one glove. Then she took the box and walked over to a shelf nearby, and stuffed the box into it.When she turned back, Kendall looked up at her.Hannah glanced at him and said, "What kind of look is that?""Did that box offend you?"Hannah sat back down and, as she put her gloves back on, she hummed, "If you keep asking, you will soon offend me.""OK, I didn't ask anymore."Hannah ate four or five crayfish and felt like something was missing. She looked at Kendall beside her and said, "Don't you think we're missing something?""What was missing?"Kendall handed her the peeled crayfish, and Hannah didn't hesitate to take it: "Beer, huh? Don't you drink beer when you eat barbecue?""There were a few cans of beer in the refrigerator, go and get them!"Hannah kicked him directly, Kendall took off his gloves, and got up slowl
Hannah started the car and returned to the villa, paying no attention to Kendall: "There are guest rooms on the first floor, don't come up to find me unless it's necessary."This was Kendall's second time coming to Hannah's place. Last time, Kendall didn't stay for long before being chased away by Hannah.This time, I came over...Wasn't it a little better, at least he got to sleep in a guest room on the first floor, right?Hannah finished speaking and went upstairs. Kendall didn't feel like guessing what idea he had in mind, and he didn't have the patience to play with him either.Since he was coming to stay over, she decided to give him a guest room, as there were plenty of rooms in her house.As for the rest, he can dream on!However, she thought well, but reality turned out to be somewhat contrary to her wishes.Hannah had just played two rounds of King of Glory by herself when Kendall's phone rang."What's up?""Were you playing King of Glory?""Yeah, do you have any opinions?""
Mona was not surprised at all. She only became acquainted with Hannah after junior high school, when she was young and naturally couldn't see the constant arguments between Hannah and Kendall.Later in high school, she also had a crush on Kendall, and when she saw what Kendall did to Hannah, she vaguely understood something.She remembered in her sophomore year, she even told Hannah that Kendall might like her.Hannah's reaction was very strong, telling her not to make such jokes, she couldn't handle it.Not long after, it was heard that Kendall had a girlfriend, and Mona even briefly doubted if she had sensed something wrong.Later on, Kendall went abroad after studying in her home country for only two years. After going abroad, she also vaguely heard from mutual friends in the circle that Kendall had a girlfriend again. Mona no longer mentioned Kendall's feelings for Hannah.Five years ago, Kendall came over to this side of LA to find Hannah. She was quite surprised because at that
