  Jessica was startled when she saw Lucas.

  She quickly walked to the bed and placed her finger under Lucas' nose. Lucas was still breathing.

  Lucas didn't wake up. But luckily, he was just in a coma.

  Jessica walked around the room. The door was locked and her phone was taken away.

  If she wanted to leave this room now, she could only smash open the window and jump down.

  Jessica walked to the sofa in the room and sat down.

  Obviously, the woman she saved was working with the man who had just been hiding in the room.

  The woman put on a show and made Jessica sympathize with her before she lured Jessica to the room.

  Catching Jessica off guard, the hidden man locked Jessica and Lucas up in the same suite.

  Those two people locked Jessica with Lucas, but they never mentioned what they wanted. Jessica found that strange.

  Jessica and Lucas were both famously rich in LA, but those people did not seem to want to kill them nor a

      Jessica could feel Lucas' scorching gaze, which was turning her on.  She paced around the room, but it couldn't help reduce her discomfort at all.  Jessica could hear Lucas suppressing his breath.  Somehow, she found that sound attractive to her. She held one of her arms with the other and pinched herself.  Jessica hoped that the pain would sober her up.  "What happened to you?" Jessica tried to sound normal.  Lucas saw the wariness and concern in Jessica's eyes. He struggled to hold himself back. "I might have been drugged."  It felt very similar to the night years ago, but it was more torturous now than it had been back then.  He did not like Jessica that night, but now he did.  One couldn't even help but get close to someone they liked, not to mention under the circumstance where they were drugged.  "Don't come over here, Lucas. I don't want to repeat the mistake I made once."  Jessica pinched her arm hard again,

      Lucas could tell from Jessica's tone that she was afraid.  Though he felt a bit upset at Jessica's fear, he handed her the tie and reached out both of his hands. "Tie me up."  Jessica paused for a moment and realized what he had just asked. She hurried to button up her blazer and then walked toward Lucas.  Jessica looked up at Lucas. He wasn't making any moves. Thus, Jessica walked over and tied him up.  Jessica actually didn't have much strength, and her body was uncomfortably hot. She used all her strength to bind Lucas' wrists tightly.  After tying him up, Jessica stepped back and kept her distance from Lucas. She leaned against the wall and looked at Lucas. "Done."  Lucas only opened his eyes when he heard that.  He didn't look at Jessica and turned to the bathroom. "I'll stay in the bathroom. Leave me alone."  Jessica didn't respond. She didn't collapse on the floor until she heard the door of the bathroom close.  Jessica

      Jessica tried to list all her enemies in the past year. But still, she had no clue.  Jessica collected her thoughts and looked up at Lucas. "That's strange. You know all of those who hate me and dare to plot me."  Lucas understood what she meant, and his face darkened. "I'll look into it."  "I see."  Jessica responded. She looked at the remote control on the table and picked it up. "It's a bit cold."  "You may raise the temperature."  Jessica didn't respond. Lucas gazed at her but didn't speak, either. The room fell silent.  They then heard a noise outside the door. Jessica glanced at Lucas and said, "They've come to open the door."  "Yes."  Lucas looked at Jessica and rose from the sofa.  When the door was kicked open, both Jessica and Lucas were dumbstruck.  The man who kicked the door was surprised to see them, too. "What?"  The hotel manager turned around to the man behind him, who had claimed that her cou

      Vincent did not dare to ask, but reached out and handed the bag of clothes to Lucas. "Your clothes, Mr. Thomas."  Vincent not only did not dare to ask, but he also did not dare to look around.  Half an hour ago, he received a call from Lucas. He had been serving Lucas for years. How could he miss the suppressed anger in Lucas' voice?  Lucas did not say much on the phone. He just told Vincent to bring a clean set of clothes to the hotel.  Vincent felt nervous along the way. Now that he saw Lucas, he was even more uneasy.  Apparently, something terrible had happened.  As for what it was, Vincent had a wild guess. Lucas was probably tricked into something last night.  Lucas had always hated these tricks. Lucas' father used a trick like this as an excuse for his affair back then.  That was why Lucas was so furious four years ago. That was why he never really cared about Jessica after marrying her.  Yet, this time, the same thing ha

      Hannah knew that Jessica was unharmed, so she didn't stay long at Jessica's place.  After Hannah left, Jessica grabbed something to eat and took a nap. By the time she woke up, it was already afternoon.  She felt much better now. Thus, Jessica decided to drive to a boutique. Lucas tore the collar of her dress apart yesterday. She needed a new one.  Jessica's apartment, located in an expensive area in LA, was quite posh with good privacy. She didn't have to worry about being snapped there.  With a sound, the elevator came to a halt. Jessica walked into the underground garage.  She turned a corner, and she immediately saw Lucas standing in front of her car.  It had only been a few hours since they parted. Jessica wondered what brought Lucas here.  Besides, Jessica didn't understand why Lucas had decided to wait in the garage rather than going upstairs and knocking on her door.  "Mr. Thomas. Why are you standing there? You are not askin

      "I do have a question for you." Terry put down the pizza in his hand as well.  "Which is?"  "You and Lucas, did you really get back together?"  Jessica didn't expect that question from Terry. She was dumbfounded at first and then chuckled. "What does this have to do with you, Mr. Davison?"  Terry did not answer the question. He placed the glass on the table, and then stood up and said to Jessica with a smile, "I think I'll leave you to a good rest."  "You may see yourself out, Mr. Davison," said Jessica, following Terry to the door.  "Jessica." Terry opened the door and suddenly stopped. He looked at Jessica and asked, "If the person four years ago hadn't been Lucas, would you still have married him?"  "What are you suggesting?" Jessica's voice turned cold.  Terry looked at Jessica. "I'm not suggesting anything. I'm only curious. If that man hadn't been Lucas, would you still have married him?"  "Terry, you know something about

      Hearing that, Lucas looked even more sullen. He then had a quick review of what had happened the other day.  He attended a private gathering between the Thomas family and the Hartley family that day. The chosen restaurant was private property owned by Hari's family. It was rarely opened to the public. The Hartley family only treated their friends and business partners there.  During the gathering, Lucas had only taken a glass of wine Hari poured him.  And that glass was never out of Lucas' sight.  Besides that, Lucas had only accepted a bottle of water from Olivia when he was about to leave.  He happened to be thirsty then, so he took a sip.  Lucas recalled that and his face darkened.  He picked up his car key and left the company.  Lucas drove back to the Thomas villa soon after.  That was when the Thomas family had just had their breakfast.  Lucas went upstairs directly to Olivia's door and knocked on it.  Olivia

      "No! Don't call the police!" Olivia ran to Lucas, crying, and grabbed Lucas by the arm.  Lucas flung her away in disgust. Olivia stumbled two steps and fell to the ground.  Rebecca finally realized what was going on here. She thought Olivia was joking about patching things up between Lucas and Jessica. But Rebecca never thought that Olivia would actually do it.  Justin also had a rough picture of the whole story.  Justin had originally put pressure on Rebecca in hopes that she would become the mediator. He chose Rebecca simply because she was the only one in the Thomas family who never had any conflicts with Jessica.  However, Rebecca proved to be useless. Not only was she rejected by Jessica many times, but she leaked her task to Olivia.  "If I don't turn you over to the police, I have no idea what wrong you will do next." Lucas held Olivia's wrist tightly and dragged her to the door.  "Lucas, where are you going? She is your sister!" Reb

    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.

    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

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
