  Jessica could tell that Morgan was cautious about his words. She then said, "Dad, I assure you and mom that I am fine."

  With that, Morgan let out a sigh of relief. "I know. So, who is behind this rumor? Whoever did this had crossed the line! You have to look into it."

  "I see, Dad. I will ask Wendy to investigate the whole thing. Dad, you and Mom should take care of your health at home. I am fine here. You don't have to worry about me."

  "Sure."

  Seeing Jessica wasn't upset at all, Morgan felt relieved.

  "Then I won't disturb you. I just got off the plane. Don't work too hard. Take care of yourself. Dad is still young, so my baby girl doesn't have to work so hard."

  Jessica smiled, "Alright, I'll hang up now, Dad."

  "Okay."

  After hanging up, the smile on Jessica's face faded a lot.

  She turned her head to look at the scenery outside the window. After a long while, Jessica retracted her gaze and called out to Wendy, "Wendy, ha

      Jessica heard him and took a step back, "Come in then."  Terry walked in, and Jessica noticed that he was carrying two bags in his hands.  Jessica lowered her head, and when she saw the food in one of the bags, she couldn't help but feel surprised. "You are not going to cook lunch here, are you?"  Terry had been at Jessica's place before, so he knew where the kitchen was. He went directly over and then spoke as he took the things out of the bag. "Yeah. You've just got off the plane, right?"  Jessica paused a bit, but she didn't go on asking.  "Do you mind giving me a hand?"  While she was in a daze, Terry suddenly said.  Jessica came back to her senses and looked at him in confusion. "What?"  "Help me put on the apron. Thank you."  With that, Jessica glanced at the apron and Terry's white shirt and black trousers. She couldn't help but chuckle. "The combination looks funny to me."  As she spoke, she took the apron over an

      "I see what you mean." Jessica picked up the coffee cup again. She took a sip and said, "Olivia is his family. He covered up for Olivia because he wanted to protect his sister. But Luna and Trissy ... I don't think Lucas will do the same thing for them."  Jessica said, thinking about how Lucas confessed the whole thing to her that night in the park and then recalling his confession of love to her. She was a little distracted.  "I see. It's just a kind reminder."  Jessica only came back to her senses when she heard Terry's voice. She didn't notice the sense of frustration in Terry's eyes.  What Terry said reminded Jessica that even if Lucas was not involved, the Thomas family or Justin might have something to do with it.  Jessica suspected Justin for a fair reason.  Morgan once warned Jessica when he came to LA to settle scores with the Thomas family for Jessica's sake.  Justin was not the one to mess up with. It was not that the Hall famil

      After Terry left, Jessica returned to her room, and she suddenly recalled that the rumor included a man staying at her place at night.  The man was veiled, but the spreader suggested it was Terry.  Thus, Jessica felt that the staff in her apartment should be trained more.  Jessica found herself in the center of a storm. Bad things kept happening.  The next day, before Jessica's scandal was erased, another piece of gossip was exposed.  It was about Luna and Lucas.  In the photo, Luna was sitting at the entrance of an OB—GYN clinic.  Beside Luna, there was a man, putting his hand on Luna's shoulder as a gesture of comfort.  And this man was wearing a bespoke Armani suit and a Patek Philippe watch.  These details suggested that he was Lucas, the current CEO of the Thomas Group.  Jessica looked at the news online and her face turned cold.  Although she could not see the man's face, judging from his figure and hair

      Sitting in front of his desk, Lucas pondered quietly. Vincent walked up to Lucas, about to remind Lucas of a meeting he should attend later.  Vincent also read the news about Luna's "pregnancy". He didn't know how the news affected Lucas' mood. What if Lucas was angry and decided to take it out on him? That would be a disaster.  Before Vincent could decide what to say, Lucas had already looked up at him.  Vincent paused for a moment and turned to Lucas with a grim face. He froze. "Mr. Thomas..."  Lucas only glanced at Vincent. "I'm going to Thomas' villa."  "But you have a meeting about the new project to attend later."  However, Lucas ignored what Vincent said and left without turning back. Vincent followed Lucas for a few steps, but finally stopped after recalling the look on Lucas' face.  Well, Vincent couldn't stop his boss, could he?  In the Thomas villa.  Justin was listening to Dwayne talking about the netizens' discussi

      Lucas didn't speak, and Justin was so angry that his face turned pale.  Finally, Justin closed his eyes and softened his attitude. "Lucas, I know what's on your mind. I do want you and Jessica to get married again. First, the two of you are in love. You two only ended up divorcing because of a misunderstanding. Second, you and Jessica's marriage will do our family good. I gave Luna and Trissy money just to make them leave LA and stay away from you."  "You know what Luna wants. You are just irritating her," said Lucas.  "What's your plan then? Let them get what they ask for? Do you have any idea how much you pay Luna and Trissy each month?"  Justin said flatly.  "I'll make it clear to Luna and send her away from LA," Lucas said coldly, pursing his lips.  "They know what you are going to do," said Justin with a sneer. "Have you read about the news of Luna being pregnant? She's so ambitious and bold. You can never marry such a woman. I've warned yo

      Lucas did not speak again. He turned and left Justin's study with a stern face.  He returned to his car but did not start the car. Instead, he opened the window and lit a cigarette.  He also didn't know what he was thinking about at this time. His mind was all a mess. That had never happened before.  The cigarette was burned up. Lucas snuffed it out.  He was about to start the car when his phone rang.  "Mr. Thomas, there are some clues about Miss Hall's scandal."  Vincent's voice came from the phone.  "Say it." Lucas cleared his mind hurriedly.  "IT department located one of the participants in the early dissemination. According to his recent remittance, they found Miss Cheek's account," Vincent immediately replied.  "Got it." Lucas didn't ask which Miss Cheek it was. Luna or Trissy, it made no difference.  "Mr. Thomas, do I need to continue looking into the rumor of Luna being pregnant?" asked Vincent.  "No. But I

      "Are you threatening me?" Lucas narrowed his eyes slightly, his golden pupils tinged with anger.  When his anger peaked, it started to fall.  "I don't dare, Lou. Trissy and I can offend neither the Thomas family nor the Hall family. Please don't push me."  Said that as she might, Luna didn't show any fear on her face. Instead, it could be told from her eyes that she was clearly planning something.  Given where they had come to, Lucas didn't buy anything Luna said at all. He lowered his eyes and turned to the phone on the desk. He then said to Luna, "I want this cellphone. At what expense?"  "You want the cell? I can just give it to you, Lou."  "Don't play dumb. I didn't mean the phone itself, but all the copies of the recording." Lucas didn't feel like beating about the bush. "What do you want?"  "I love you dearly. Why would I threaten you with the cell? As long as you marry me, I will be your wife, and Olivia will be my sister—in&m

      Lucas left. Having heard the door closing, Trissy collapsed on the sofa, as if she was just a lifeless doll.  Trissy let out a long breath. She then looked up, only to see Luna staring at the closed door where she stood.  "Luna?" Trissy called out to her.  "Why did you give him the phone just now? Why?" Luna suddenly turned her head around and looked at Trissy fiercely, gnashing her teeth.  "Didn't you see that Lucas was already angry?" Trissy frowned as saw Luna blown up.  "WHY? WHY DID YOU GIVE HIM THE DAMN PHONE?" Luna turned a deaf ear to Trissy's words and looked at Trissy as if Trissy was her enemy. "If only ... If only I have tried one more time... He would have agreed to marry me!"  "What is wrong with you?" Trissy was a little impatient. "What's wrong with me giving him the phone? I didn't give it to him for free. I exchanged the phone for 300 million dollars. What else do you want?  "What? 300 million dollars and you are satisfie

    "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
