  "It has nothing to do with Terry!" Grace immediately replied. Then, she paused for a moment and realized that she had made a mistake. Grace looked grim as she shut her mouth.

  "So you drugged me because of Terry?" Jessica asked, "Do you like Terry?"

  Grace froze for a moment. "Yes, I like him. So what? I did visit him before, but I told him that it didn't matter if he refused to go on a date with me. I just need him to help me by being my rumored boyfriend. It's all your fault. I lost my job because he refused to do it! He said you never like a playboy!"

  Grace thought of it and got a horrible expression on her face. "When he mentioned you, he looked so gentle! I heard many times that he was pursuing you in the past few months, but you are not good enough for him."

  Jessica looked at her. When Grace finished, Jessica raised her eyebrows and said, "So Miss Sandoval, thank you for doing me a favor."

  Jessica chuckled and lowered her head. "I didn't know

      "What's up?" Jessica asked, not wanting to dwell on the subject.  Jessica suddenly felt a headache and could not help but raise her hand to rub her forehead.  "Are you drunk?"  Terry, who was next to her, asked. Jessica glanced at him and nodded. "A little. I had a glass of freshly made fruit cocktail," Jessica said.  "Give me your hand," Terry said.  Terry helped Jessica to the door. Jessica looked at the palm that Terry had reached out to her and hesitated.  But before Jessica made up her mind, Terry had already pulled her hand and pressed her index finger against the doorknob.  With a beep, the door opened. Then Terry pushed the door open and helped Jessica in.  "Just sit here," Terry said.  Jessica was taken to the sofa, and she tilted her head to look at Terry, who was walking toward the kitchen.  Terry was slowly undoing the cufflinks of his shirt.  The muscles on Terry's forearms were even more burly and more

      Jessica never expected Olivia to change her nature. When she knew Olivia was involved, she only felt disgusted, but not sad at all.  What Jessica did mind was what Lucas had done. She thought Lucas could no longer harm her anymore.  But when Jessica recalled that Lucas deliberately concealed the fact from her, she still felt bothered. The sting caused by Lucas made Jessica unable to fall asleep.  The next day, Jessica invited Hannah to Cloud Top after work. Jessica rarely took the initiative to ask Hannah out.  When Jessica entered the door, before she could reach Hannah's booth, a man came up to strike up a conversation.  "Hey gorgeous, may I treat you to a drink?"  Jessica glanced at him. She was in a bad mood today and didn't feel like arguing with the guy.  Jessica pursed her lips and shook her head.  "What drove you here today?" Hannah found it strange that Jessica took the initiative to ask her to come to Mona's nightclub. "Who

      Jessica rolled down half of the window. She could feel both the warm breeze from outside and the cold air in the car at the same time.  Jessica could only feel a heat wave when she had just opened the window.  But soon, Jessica found the breeze outside more comfortable than the air blown from the air conditioner.  The night wind was strong. With the window open, Jessica was quite sober for the whole night.  The light turned red, so Lucas stopped the car.  Lucas tilted his head and looked at Jessica. "Where are we going?"  Jessica checked the time. It was already late. It was almost ten o'clock at night.  It was too late for them to chat over a meal. It was not proper either, given their current relationship.  Thus, Jessica chose an open place. "Let's go to Griffith Park."  "Sure."  Lucas replied, and Jessica did not say anything else.  Lucas was never talkative. Though he did want to talk to Jessica at that moment,

      Lucas was lost for words for a while, and he looked a little helpless.  He then turned to look at Jessica's cold face and changed the topic. "I'll drive you back."  "Don't worry. I'll take a taxi. It will be here in five minutes."  Jessica gave Lucas no excuse to keep her. "Mr. Thomas, we have divorced, but your sister still hates my guts. She has been making trouble for me time and time again. I am not good—tempered. I will deal with those who schemed against me, so I don't need your oral support."  Lucas looked at Jessica as she turned around, and his golden eyes darkened. "Jessica," said Lucas.  Hearing Lucas' voice, Jessica stopped, but she did not look back.  She didn't lie to Lucas. She had called for a taxi, and it was almost here.  "Do you feel nothing for me now?"  Jessica was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Lucas, who had always been cold—hearted, would ask such a question.  Jessica turned to look

      Jessica returned home and washed up. Then she lay in bed.  What Lucas said tonight and before they got divorced constantly appeared in Jessica's mind, intertwined.  She remembered a young boy's shirt blown by the wind eleven years ago when she got unconscious.  It suddenly occurred to Jessica that she might not have noticed Lucas over and over again, or even fallen in love with him, had Lucas not been the person who saved her that day.  But there was no if. During those three years, Jessica always remembered that day when she wanted to give up.  She always believed that Lucas was a gentle person despite his cruel face.  However, she ended up divorcing Lucas before Lucas revealed his tender heart to her. They had been divorced for a year, but Jessica suddenly knew that Lucas loved her.  Jessica flipped over on the bed, her tears streaming down uncontrollably.  She was never a sentimental person and had hardly cried since her childhood

      "I'm here for you." Lucas immediately frowned. He didn't like it when Jessica talked to him in such a polite manner.  "I'm sorry. I still have something to do today. Excuse me." Jessica smiled and was about to leave.  "Then I'll give you a lift." Lucas raised his hand to check the time on his watch and then pointed to the car next to him.  Jessica raised her eyebrows and said casually, "No need. It's out of your way."  "You didn't even tell me where you were going. How do you know I wasn't on the way?" Lucas' low and charming voice carried a hint of grievance.  Jessica felt a little helpless. Couldn't Lucas see that she was refusing him?  Jessica said with a smile, "I'll repeat, there's no need. Mr. Thomas, aren't you busy? Don't you need to spend time running the Thomas Group?"  Lucas' eyes darkened. He was just about to say something when Wendy walked out of the company and came to Jessica.  Wendy glanced at Lucas, then turned her

      Jessica looked at Lucas from behind as he left, and she was unable to come back to her senses for a moment.  Lucas' decision was unexpected to her, and Jessica even forgot to express her mockery.  She had been married to Lucas for three years. She knew that Lucas was a man of his word.  Jessica became curious if Lucas could succeed.  After all, it was not easy to send Olivia away from the Thomas family.  Jessica returned to her senses and turned towards the entrance to the Hall Group building.  Lucas had given the shares to her, so she did not need to go to the Davison Group for further negotiation.  As soon as she returned to the office, she immediately asked Wendy to contact all the current shareholders of the Sandoval Group for a shareholder meeting.  Terry had noticed Jessica's move the moment Jessica started to purchase the shares of the Sandoval Group.  Therefore, when he received a call, Terry was not surprised that a sh

     Jessica's words upset both Lucas and Grace, whose faces turned sullen.  Lucas didn't like it when Grace brought up their divorce again in public.  Grace, on the other hand, was angry because Terry hadn't even glanced at her.  Just as Grace was about to lose control of her anger, Jessica slowly asked, "Miss Sandoval, are you targeting me because of Mr. Davison?"  Grace glanced at Tony. She quickly calmed down after a moment of panic.  Grace felt that there was no need to hide her true feelings in front of her father.  "Good. So you know that. The Thomas family just abandoned you. Is that why you are so eager to ride on Terry's coattails?"  Jessica sneered and ignored her.  "If only what you said was true. I would be so honored. It's a pity that Miss Hall has been rejecting me all the time." Terry chuckled and added.  "T!" Grace's face turned pale when she heard Terry's words.  Terry even laughed at himself to help Jessica.

    "Is it me? Have you got any news?""I was in Phoenix and had just received a package from Luna. Inside, there was a ring, Luna's letter, and... an urn."Terry's heart skipped a beat when he heard the words "urn". "Where are you?" he asked."Just left Finger Cliff.""I was watching the surveillance footage at the police station."Upon hearing his words, Lucas on the other end of the phone immediately said, "I'm coming over."Terry responded with a sound, hung up the phone, and raised his hand to vigorously wipe his face.He was not in the mood to watch the surveillance footage anymore. He had been staring at it for over seven hours since around four o'clock in the morning, and his eyes were already hurting.However, with so many vehicles, he did not find any car with abnormalities."Rodney."Terry stood up and looked at Rodney.Seeing that he finally agreed to take a break, Rodney breathed a sigh of relief a

    That evening was clearly painful and unbearable.When Terry woke up, it was already past three o'clock in the middle of the night.The ward was very quiet. As soon as he opened his eyes, he instinctively looked for Jessica.However, everything around him was unfamiliar, without Jessica, only he himself.He still had an IV drip in his hand, but Terry directly pulled out the needle. Just as he walked out of the ward, he happened to see Rodney walking towards him from the direction of the elevator.Terry ran over directly and asked, "How is Jessica doing, Rodney?"Rodney glanced at Terry, feeling a bit reluctant. "Mr. Davison, I'm sorry, but up until now, we haven't received any news about Ms. Hall."Upon hearing Rodney's words, Terry trembled slightly and asked, "Has Lucas contacted me?""Mr. Thomas called shortly after you had just passed out, and he was also inquiring about Ms. Hall's condition."There was no news from e

    When Luna woke up, it was already past one o'clock in the morning.She was hanging on the cliff for nearly three hours. Although she didn't suffer much injury, she had a fever because of fear and the cold sea breeze blowing on the cliff for more than three hours at night. When she was taken to the hospital, her temperature had risen to forty degrees. It wasn't until after eleven o'clock at night that the fever finally subsided.Plus, the things she has experienced in the past few days have been too horrifying. She has been living in fear for so long that her mental state is almost on the verge of collapse. After waking up, she completely lost control of her emotions and screamed while holding her head.Upon hearing Olivia's cry, Vincent quickly instructed the person next to him to go in and comfort Olivia, then turned around and ran downstairs to the hospital to find Lucas.When he found Lucas, Lucas was sitting in the smoking area, with a trash can right

    The man in the passenger seat frowned when he saw the situation and said, "Hasn't he died?"He said as he bent down and checked Olivia's breath, feeling a faint pulse in his hand. The man breathed a sigh of relief, "She's not dead."Saying that, he grabbed Olivia's hand, hoisted her up, and threw her back into the car. "Let's go, to Wind Cliff!"The van started up again, and Olivia inside had already fainted.When Olivia woke up again, she found herself dropped down a cliff, with a vast sea below.She screamed loudly in fright, and the two men on the cliff heard her scream, furrowing their brows, but no one paid attention to her.Carson City was gradually getting dark at seven o'clock when Lucas arrived at Wind Cliff, precisely at half past seven.The sky had already turned completely dark, and the sea water surged up, with the water below churning fiercely.Lucas did not see Olivia, and there was no one on the cliff.Ho

    Around six in the evening, Rodney brought a boxed meal and handed it to Terry. "Mr. Davison, I understand your mood, but if you can't take care of your own body, how can you save Ms. Hall?"Terry took the boxed meal and said, "Thank you."He just didn't have much appetite and mechanically stuffed food into his mouth.The sunset at Finger Cliff was beautiful, but none of the people on the mountaintop were in the mood to appreciate it at that moment, after all, a young life was at stake.Rodney looked at Terry stuffing rice into his mouth, sighed slightly, and handed him a bottle of mineral water.This time, Terry didn't refuse. He finished the boxed lunch while drinking mineral water.At 7 o'clock in the evening, night fell, but everything around remained the same, except that the wind had become a bit colder than during the day.Terry looked at the cigarette in Rodney's hand for a moment, then he spoke up, "Rodney, can you give me a c

    Jerry heard Terry's words and instinctively looked up at him.When Jerry's gaze met those peach blossom eyes, his heart felt a bit uncomfortable. "Mr. Davison, Ms. Hall is so smart, she must be able to handle it.""Is that so?"Terry lowered his head and raised his hand to cover the watch on his left hand.This is a customized couple watch made by Jessica, and there are only two of them in the world, making them unique.But as he watched the time pass by minute by minute on the watch, there was no joy in his heart. He had not seen her or heard her voice for twenty-five consecutive hours.This feeling was more painful than when he first found out that she was going to marry Lucas.He was really scared.Jerry had followed Terry for so many years and had never seen Terry like this before. Now, looking at him, Jerry also felt uneasy inside.But now Jessica has not been found yet, everything is still unknown. If they try a li

    Running during the day is much better than running at night, at least you can see the road clearly.But inside this mountain, everywhere was trees and waist-high weeds, there was simply no path for Jessica to run.Jessica didn't have much strength left; she only knew that she couldn't be caught up.But she could still hear the woman's screaming voice, knowing without a doubt that she hadn't run far.The woman was probably going to call the man. It was all grass everywhere, where did she run to, they would find her if they were a bit smarter.Jessica stopped and leaned against a tree, catching her breath while analyzing the terrain.Looking around, she couldn't see any houses, so she couldn't ask for help.Jessica hesitated whether to run towards the foot of the mountain or up the mountain.She didn't have much time to hesitate anymore, as the man's angry roar and the woman's curses behind her were reminding her that they were a

    The driver brother talked a lot. Jessica didn't know whether to believe his nonsense or not, but she was already exhausted.Fortunately, they chatted for more than ten minutes, and the taxi driver also noticed that Jessica was very tired. He handed her a bottle of mineral water and told her to take a nap. "I just finished delivering the goods and need to go home to pick up new ones. Don't mind, take a rest for a while. We will arrive at my house in ten minutes."Jessica took the mineral water and unscrewed it, then drank more than half of it directly.The elder brother driver stopped talking, and she also remained silent, turning her head to look out of the car window. She almost fell asleep several times, but she managed to hold on.The driver did not deceive him, his house was indeed just nearby. The small truck drove into a village, and Jessica got out of the car with him."Have some breakfast first. The police station is five kilometers ahead.

    Neither of the two men expected that Jessica would suddenly escape, after all, her hands and feet were tied with ropes.The two of them were chatting just now. Although they occasionally glanced at Jessica, they found that when Jessica disappeared, she had already run seven or eight meters away.Two men were in the car and they really thought Jessica had diarrhea. They felt a bit disgusted, so they closed the car door. However, they realized that she had run away when they opened the door, causing a delay of one or two seconds. By the time the two men got out of the car, Jessica had already run up the hill.Late at night, in the quietness, the outskirts of the area within ten miles seemed deserted as if there were no households around. Two men's angry shouts were closely chasing from behind.Jessica was wearing high heels on her feet, and she was not running comfortably. However, the mountain road was overgrown with weeds, and if she took off her shoes, s
