  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

     "Then what do you want? Turn her over to the police? In that case, the reputation of our family would be ruined!"  Justin's face turned grim when he heard Lucas.  Justin continued, "It has already happened. If it weren't for Olivia, something even worse might have happened to Jessica."  "What are you suggesting?" Lucas looked at Justin and waited for him to continue.  "Since you and Jessica have been snapped together, why don't you two take the opportunity to get married again?" Justin said.  "Do you think Jessica will agree?" Lucas said self—teasingly.  Especially when Olivia was involved in the whole thing again. Jessica was so tired of Olivia's dirty tricks.  "I told you long ago that you have to learn from Terry. When you are chasing a girl, how can you give up easily? You have to let go of your attitude first. Then treat her nicely. Gradually, things will work out. Besides, you two had a history. You can do it. As for what happen

      Lucas' eyes flicked after he heard Jessica's words.  Lucas knew what was on Jessica's report. Olivia was not connected to Grace, so Jessica couldn't have known that Olivia was involved in it.  Lucas remained silent, so Jessica asked, "What are you going to do, Mr. Thomas?"  Seeing how calm Jessica was, Lucas said, "Looks like you already know about Grace."  Jessica nodded.  Lucas added, "Do you need me to clarify it?"  "Nope. An explanation will only look like a cover—up." Jessica shook her head.  She paused and said, "I won't let her get away."  "Then I'll head out now." Lucas looked at Jessica. In the end, he didn't mention Olivia's part in the whole thing to Jessica.  At that moment, Lucas found himself vile.  He was so righteous in the Thomas villa, but when he saw Jessica, he became timid again.  A peaceful talk between him and Jessica was a luxury to Lucas now. He didn't dare to break the tranquility.

      After Jessica went home, she thought about what Terry had said. He made a good point.  No matter how daring Grace was, she wouldn't have had the guts to offend both the Hall family and the Thomas family at the same time.  Jessica had not been based in LA before, so it was understandable that Grace didn't take Jessica seriously.  But everyone knew that Lucas was the last person one would ever want to mess up with in LA.  What Terry said made Jessica have second thoughts about the whole thing. She had a hunch that something was wrong, but she just couldn't tell what exactly.  Thus, with a frown, Jessica called Wendy.  Wendy should still be working.  Wendy quickly answered the phone. Jessica smiled and said directly, "Good evening, Wendy. Sorry to disturb you. I hope you can help me further investigate the people around Grace."  "Miss Hall, is there anything wrong with the current result?"  Wendy didn't see this coming. But she so

      Justin looked at Lucas with disappointment. He said, "I've already made a plan for you and Jessica. I'm going to New York in a few days.  "I will meet with Jessica's parents and apologize to them. Also, I will discuss the remarriage plan with them, too.  "We didn't know that Jessica was Morgan's daughter, so we never paid attention to the formalities. This time, we have to be polite!  "And you. You should propose to Jessica as soon as possible. If she refuses, you may try using a little trick. I've got a perfect excuse for you. Tell you I'm dying and your wedding is on top of my bucket list. You can say it's just a wedding, only to fulfill my last wish."  Lucas' eyes turned cold as he learned about Justin's idea. "Grandpa, I don't want to remarry Jessica."  With that, Justin slapped Lucas in the face. "Do you think you have a say in this? Ever since you divorced Jessica, people never stopped judging the Thomas family.  "The Davison family never

      At night, the Thomas villa was very quiet. Lucas returned to his car and lowered his head to light a cigarette.  He thought of Jessica and Terry in the photos he had just seen. He didn't know what they were talking about. Jessica was smiling, and Terry was right beside her. He lowered his head slightly. They didn't get too close, but still, Lucas felt a throb in his heart.  His heart was aching.  Suddenly, a car drove into the parking lot. The remote light was cast over. Lucas narrowed his eyes and came back to his senses. He snuffed out his cigarette and started the car.  The car slowly drove out of the villa area. Half an hour later, Lucas' black car stopped outside Jessica's apartment.  Lucas was about to get out of the car when a familiar car drove over. The person sitting on the other side of the half—open window was Terry.  Lucas froze for a moment and his face darkened.  Ever since Jessica and Lucas had been snapped in the hot

    Julie looked up and said, "I will go and have a look."She turned around and ran over to Hannah's side, as she spoke.Just now, Hannah saw that there were crabs in the cage and curiously asked Jessica, "Will there be crabs in the cracks of these stones?"Julie hadn't really thought about it, but don't crabs usually like to hide in crevices in shallow water? So she casually replied, "Sure, if you want to catch one, go down and take a look for yourself."Hannah really rolled up her pants, went down the stream, and searched for crabs among the gaps in the rocks.The stream was clear, you could see to the bottom at a glance.Hannah didn't take long to find a crab. She was planning to catch it and show off to Jessica, but the crab ran too fast. She kept finding several others, but they all managed to escape.This time she saw a quite big one, and didn't want to let the crab just run away like that, so she shouted for Jessica.Julie

    Hannah was curious about everything, so when she saw that bamboo house, she pulled Julie and asked her all sorts of questions.Terry walked alongside Morgan and May, both of whom were quite advanced in age. Although the mountain was not very high and not difficult to climb, it still required physical effort, and the two of them fell behind by quite a bit.When they arrived in front of the bamboo house, Jessica and Hannah were already not inside the bamboo house.Terry poured the leftover tea for May and Morgan and pointed to the door of the bamboo house, saying, "Uncle, Aunt, Jessica said that Mr. Garrison found her in front of this bamboo house."Upon hearing Terry's words, Morgan's hand holding the teacup trembled.He also didn't care about drinking water anymore, and got up and walked to the front of the bamboo house.Just now they came up from the mountain and saw only a bamboo house amidst the lush greenery. There was a stream flowing n

    I have to say, the three questions that Hannah asked in a row were the same questions that Morgan and May were concerned about.Jessica lost her memory, and they all didn't want to put pressure on her.They only have one precious daughter. When they first learned about Jessica's accident, both of them were devastated. Now that they have finally found her, Morgan and May naturally want to bring Jessica back home.Just now, Jessica and Terry walked in, talking and laughing. Both of them felt quite emotional inside.At this moment, the person most eager to have Jessica return should be Terry, and the person most anxious for Jessica to regain her memory is also Terry.But Terry seemed to have no worries about these issues. As parents, they couldn't bear to see Jessica struggling."It's true that this place was a bit poor, but Jessica lived happily and was doing fine."May sighed and said, "It's true, Jessica was definitely raised on a ped

    Terry was clearly puzzled, "Will there be wild rabbits and pheasants on this mountain?"This side is all small hills, they are called mountains, but the altitude is not high, only about one or two hundred meters. It takes about three hours to go up from the foot of the mountain to the top slowly, and it takes a little over an hour to go up quickly.More than twenty years ago, it was not uncommon to see wild pheasants and wild rabbits. Given the current ecological environment, it is indeed quite unexpected to still have wild pheasants and wild rabbits.Julie looked at him and smiled, "What Roberto said, anyway, those who run in the mountains, nameless and faceless, what are they if not wild chickens and hares?""That's right."Terry thought that Roberto was indeed quite interesting. You said he was a bad person, but he didn't hesitate to save Jessica. You say he is a good person, but he is actually very "carefree".The two of them crossed the

    Terry paused for a moment, watching Jessica's figure disappear. It was only then that he noticed Roberto lying on the lounge chair about ten meters ahead.At that moment, the sun was scorching hot, and Roberto covered his face with a straw hat to shield it from the direct sunlight.Julie walked over and looked at the sun hat on Roberto's face, raising an eyebrow and shaking her ponytail. She took a few steps forward and pulled the fishing line hard.Feeling the fishing rod in his hand move, Roberto quickly sat up from the lounge chair."Old man, there was a fish on the hook!"Roberto saw her and snorted, "What are you here for?""I saw you fishing!"Roberto scoffed, "It was you who pulled the fishing line just now, right?""Don't accuse me wrongly, I didn't do it."Julie didn't admit it.Roberto heard the commotion from Terry's side, turned his head and saw Terry throwing a bamboo cage into the stream. He instinct

    Because Morgan and the others were still asleep, Julie had to leave a note on the table in the living room.Afterwards, she took Terry into the mountains.When the two of them were leaving, Lucas was still there. Seeing them leaving, he also followed along.Terry glanced at Jessica and didn't say anything.Julie paused and turned her head to look at Lucas. "Mr. Thomas, I suggest you go back and take care of your company. Although I have lost my memory and don't remember our past, I believe that since we got divorced, I must have had my reasons."She spoke, paused for a moment, and finally glanced at Lucas before bluntly adding, "Persistent pestering, it really lacks the grace of a man."Jessica before her amnesia had said something similar.With just one sentence, she left Lucas speechless.But he knew that Jessica had lost her memory, it was a second chance given to him by fate, even though he felt despicable in doing so.

    Julie walked into the backyard and saw the clothes thrown in the trash bin. She glanced at them and then carried the clothes into the bathroom.Julie finished taking a shower and washing her hair before going out. Hannah was sitting at the door of the west wing and when she saw Julie coming out, she got up and tried to cover up the truth, saying, "There are too many mosquitoes over there."She spoke and showed her arm that had been stung.Julie glanced and said, "There were many mosquitoes in the evening, I suggest you wear long sleeves."Their clothes were brought by a woman who drove over after the rain stopped. The woman seemed quite excited when she saw her, her eyes even turned red as she looked at Julie.But Julie couldn't remember anything, so she just nodded her head as a way of greeting.The clothes Wendy brought over were quite thoughtful, as she prepared several sets for each person.Hannah obediently went to change into lo

    Terry reacted quickly too. Upon hearing Jessica's words, he closed the box and threw it back into the pit.Julie hurriedly filled the soil back with a shovel. This box of gold, indeed, could not be exposed to light casually!She guessed that there were valuable things hidden inside, otherwise, during the few days she was unconscious and drugged, it couldn't possibly have been dug up by the old man going up the mountain.In the first few days after waking up, Roberto still made her drink medicine.Although Julie didn't have the ability to distinguish medicines, she could clearly recognize the thick ginseng placed in the kitchen.Although it is said that all ginseng nowadays has been cultivated, the one Roberto uses for medicinal purposes is mostly wild, and it grows so long. It must be quite expensive.It should be at least a few thousand, if not tens of thousands.This was just the money for a medicine, and later Roberto also bought h

    Hannah saw Terry coming and tactfully left the kitchen.Terry also glanced at Jessica and said, "I just saw a big yellow dog."Julie paused her action of scrubbing the pot and said, "Tsk, you're quite naughty too."Terry looked at her, his eyes twinkling with a smile. He didn't say anything, but Julie somehow understood what he meant from the look in his eyes.She averted her gaze and started heating up the pan.Roberto was very stingy. He didn't give her much money, even though he knew they were going to the market today.Julie had one hundred and fifty dollars in her pocket and wanted to buy everything. But after looking around, she paid eighty dollars for clothes, and she was left with seventy dollars in her hand.Fortunately, things in remote and impoverished areas were cheap. She bought several pounds of pork and pig bones. She originally wanted to buy chicken, but Roberto said there were wild chickens in the mountains. When she
