  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.

      Lucas didn't return to his office after leaving the Sandoval Group. He asked the driver to go back to the Thomas villa.  After getting out of the car, Lucas threw the coat to the butler and went to Justin's study alone.  Dwayne's report let Justin know that Lucas had given the shares of the Sandoval Group to Jessica. After Lucas entered the study, Justin finally revealed a satisfied smile.  "Lucas, I heard that you gave Jessica the Sandoval shares. You did a good job, my smart boy."  Justin didn't care about the shares of a small company. If these shares were conducive to Jessica's remarriage to Lucas, the Thomas Group could get far more benefits.  Justin had been engaged in the business world for many years, so he was well aware of these schemes.  During this period, Lucas had been making his own decisions and escaping Justin's control. Now, Lucas had finally followed his expectations without going awry.  Lucas lowered his head to hide th

      Ever since she overheard the conversation between Justin and Lucas and learned that Justin wanted Lucas to remarry Jessica, Olivia had been paying attention to whatever Justin did.  Jessica and Olivia never got along well, and Olivia set Jessica several times.  If Jessica really married Lucas, with Justin's current attitude towards Jessica, Olivia knew that she would be in a much more miserable state than now.  Today, when Lucas returned, Olivia went to eavesdrop again.  She waited until Lucas went into Justin's home office. Then she tiptoed near the home office to hear their conversation.  To her surprise, this time she finally heard something about herself.  When she heard that Lucas intended to send her away from LA and to Paris, she resisted the urge to break in.  Olivia kept telling herself to be patient and wait for Lucas to leave. Then she could plead with Justin and Rebecca.  But then, she heard something more. Lucas arranged

    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. He immediately dialed Jerry's phone number.Jerry was also just about to take a shower when he suddenly received a call from Terry.

    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.

    Larkspur hadn't heard any news about Jessica for several years after graduation, and she always thought that Jessica must have been doing poorly, which was why she didn't dare to show up.So when she saw the man getting out of the Cadillac just now, she instinctively felt that he was Jessica's husband.Moreover, Jessica's gaze just now was also directed towards that direction.And that man was tall and thin, and he didn't look bad either.However, Terry walked towards Jessica step by step, and Larkspur, looking at the eye contact between the two, instantly knew that he had just made a mistake.She looked at Terry and felt that he looked familiar.Not to mention the familiarity in her eyes, Terry's face truly made her jealous of Jessica.
