  What Lucas said made Jessica feel uneasy. She was no longer in the mood for more chats. Thus, she left with Hannah.

  Unexpectedly, Jessica's car broke down only a few minutes after she started it. Thus, Jessica had to pull up on the roadside.

  "What the hell! Isn't this a new car?" Hannah jumped out of the car and stomped her feet angrily.

  "Don't worry." Jessica comforted Hannah. She then took out her phone and called her assistant Wendy.

  Wendy always did her job with high efficiency. It didn't take much time for her to contact the relevant sector to handle the malfunction. Wendy still remembered the last time they ran into those people from that MC club. Two ladies stayed on the roadside at night. That didn't sound safe.

  Jessica hung up the phone and took her jacket out of her car. Just after she put the jacket on, a Maserati slowly stopped beside her car.

  "Jessica, do you need help?" The window slowly rolled down, revealing Hari's smiling face.

  "No, thanks. My assistan

      The next morning, Jessica started working as soon as she arrived at her office. She buried herself in a pile of documents the whole morning.  Only when Wendy knocked on the door did Jessica realize that it was already noon.  "Miss Hall, what would you like to eat for lunch?"  "Would you please pack up a sandwich for me?" Jessica closed the laptop and rubbed her sore forehead. "Oops, and a cup of iced Americano."  The Hall family was among the wealthiest families, but Jessica just went to a community high school because her parents didn't want other rich kids' ill intentions to reach her.  Thus, Jessica never took what she ate and wore too seriously. Especially at work, Jessica preferred a quick and simple meal.  After Wendy went out, Jessica's phone rang. She pressed the answer button.  "Have you had lunch yet, sweetheart?" The call was from Morgan Hall, Jessica's father.  "I just asked Wendy to buy lunch for me. What about you, Dad?" Jessica leaned back in her chair to have

      "I don't know what you are talking about!" Olivia retorted as she felt that Rebecca was gazing over with confusion in her eyes.  Jessica was not in the mood to argue with Olivia. She threw the tissue into the trash can and left the restroom.  Coincidentally, Jessica saw Lucas after moving only a few steps.  Because of what Olivia had said, Jessica did not want to talk to Lucas.  Lucas watched as Jessica passed by. He felt irritated when Jessica ignored him once again. He said coldly, "Jessica."  Jessica halted and tilted her head slightly to look at Lucas. "What can I do for you, Mr. Thomas?"  Unlike before, Jessica's eyes were icy cold when she looked at Lucas now. Lucas felt upset about it.  "Terry pursued you because of me. Please stay sober."  Sober? Jessica felt that her least sober moment was when she decided to marry Lucas three years ago.  "Thanks for your reminder, Mr. Thomas. But we have divorced now. I hope you and your family can stay away from me."  Jessica th

      Since Terry beat Jessica on horseback, Jessica agreed to attend the event as his plus—one.  After that, Terry didn't pester Jessica. Instead, he rode away on his horse.  Hannah caught up with them. She clicked her tongue as she saw Terry off. "What exactly is going on between the two of you?"  "No biggie. I was racing with him and I lost." Jessica looked at Hannah and said flatly.  "No way! You are the student of a horsemanship champion. How could you lose?" Hannah widened her eyes in disbelief.  "There is always someone better." As Jessica spoke, she suddenly recalled the way Terry gazed at her. Her mind was somehow muddled with emotions.  After lunch, Jessica and Hannah went shopping together.  Hannah dragged Jessica to a luxury fashion shop. When Hannah showed her VIP card, the salespeople all came over, eager to serve them.  Suddenly, a snide female voice chimed in. "Who on earth is there? What a pomp!"  Jessica found the voice familiar. She thus couldn't help but look

      Crossing her arms in front of her chest, Jessica watched with a faint smile as the salesgirls cut the price tags and packed up the clothes before handing them to Ellie.  Only then did Jessica say to Hannah, "Let's go. Didn't you say you wanted to buy a Dior bag?"  Before leaving, Jessica even asked Ellie and Zancy, "By the way, ladies, would you like to come with us? You can buy all the bags I fancy and make my shopping trip end fruitless. That's gonna annoy me so much."  Zancy hurried to stop Ellie. "We have an appointment later. We are not as idle as you."  With that, Zancy and Ellie hurriedly left with a pile of clothes.  As soon as they left, Hannah couldn't help but laugh. "OMG, they are so stupid."  "What a pity! Why didn't Miss Brown go on playing the hyper—rich girl? I could have picked a dozen bags for her," said Jessica with a snort.  Hannah held Jessica's arm with a smile. "That's my smart girl."  Jessica raised her eyebrows. She had always been a smart girl.  Th

      Jessica came to the event only because of the bet. She wasn't interested in anything at the auction.  Terry remained quite silent as well. It seemed that nothing had caught his attention, either.  Yet Terry kept gazing at Jessica. His Terry was impossible to ignore and thus made Jessica quite uneasy. She then turned around and asked, "Anything you fancy?"  "Sure."  Terry narrowed his deep eyes. He picked up the bottled water, slowly unscrewed the cap, and took a sip. With a sly smile, Terry turned to Jessica. "But the one I fancy cannot be bought."  Jessica could tell the suggestive meaning behind Terry's words, yet she pretended not. "That's a pity."  "What about Miss Hall?"  Terry asked as he fiddled with the bidder card in his hand.  Jessica was about to say no when a painting on the wall caught her attention.  "That Frida Kahlo's artwork looks nice," said Jessica.  Morgan had a collection of Frida Kahlo's paintings. Jessica knew that Morgan would love the painting when

      The auction had come to an end. Lucas was the bidder of the night. He first bought a painting for 2 million dollars and then another for 35 million dollars.  Hari also believed that Lucas acted kind of like a super—rich sucker tonight.  Hari tried to tell Lucas that the paintings were not worth the money spent, yet he chose to shut up when he saw Lucas' grim face.  After the auction was over, the four of them met at the stairs.  Hari greeted Jessica, "Jessica!"  Jessica smiled faintly and responded, "Mr. Hartley."  Jessica nodded and then left with Terry.  Lucas watched them off. His golden eyes darkened. He then left the venue as well.  Terry's black Rolls—Royce was quite eye—catching. Jessica got into the car and found that Terry was gazing at her.  Jessica looked at Terry doubtfully, only to hear the man chuckle and say, "Not bad."  "I'm sorry?"  Terry didn't explain but slowly drove out. "Are you hungry now?"  Jessica didn't take Terry's response seriously. "Not real

      Justin walked in with a stern face. He was not happy to see Jessica at all.  Sitting in her chair, Jessica raised her eyebrows and asked, "Mr. Thomas, what do I owe you?"  "It has only been a few months since we last met, yet you have already forgotten all the rules of the Thomas family. You didn't even serve me any coffee."  Jessica chuckled when she heard what Justin said. "This place is not a café. If you want any coffee, you should go to Starbucks. There happens to be one nearby. Go downstairs, turn left, and walk 200 meters. You'll see it. Coffee is served there."  "Jessica! You have no respect for your elders, and you have no proper manners at all. You have been disgracing the Thomas family out there. I'm gonna..."  "Mr. Thomas, you seem to have forgotten that I've already divorced Lucas."  Jessica's lips curled up when she spoke, yet her eyes weren't smiling at all. "This is my workplace. If you have nothing specific to say, please leave now. If you do, please say it bl

      When Olivia's friend came to her senses, she asked the waiter to bring her a towel.  The mango juice on Olivia's face flowed down her neck and soaked her sweater. Olivia stood there, looking extremely miserable.  Only then did Jessica let go of her hand. "If you don't want to continue embarrassing yourself, I advise you to leave now."  Olivia's eyes were red from anger, but looking at mango juice—sodden hair and clothes, she could only grit her teeth and leave with her friend.  As soon as Olivia left, Hannah said, "What's wrong with her? Trying to throw juice on people's face?"  Jessica had been through this many times in the past. She was quite familiar with Olivia's routine. Jessica glanced at Olivia and her friend and looked back at Hannah. "Who knows?"  People at the next table filmed the whole thing. Jessica knew about it when she and Hannah were in the Mona club.  The lights were dazzling and the music was deafening.  Hannah took a look at her phone and chuckled. "Hey,

    Hannah suddenly felt very tired, a tiredness she had never experienced before."Whether you are Dominic or Foster, our relationship had already ended from the day you left.

    Foster had no shame, while Hannah dared not lose her own face.His words did hit the nail on the head, and Hannah dared not move. She even kept her head down, afraid that someone might take a video and upload it online, which could lead to Jessica, Mona, and others recognizing her.Foster's car was parked in a nearby parking lot. He carried her over a small path and they arrived at the car after a few steps.Hannah struggled for a moment, but couldn't break free, and could only watch as he put her into the car.Hannah had been taking the stomach-aiding and digestion-promoting pills for several minutes when she started to hiccup. As she was fastening her seatbelt, she hiccuped twice. Coincidentally, Foster walked in from the side and watched her. Although he didn't say anything, Hannah could see the amusement in his dark eyes.Her face stiffened for a moment, and she glared at him, saying, "What are you laughing at? Haven't you seen someone hiccup before?"Making a mountain out of a mo

    Foster glanced at her and didn't have any objections, “I'll listen to you."Hannah stopped talking and walked here for nearly twenty minutes, feeling tired and hungry.The thin slices of pork belly were quickly grilled to perfection. Hannah has always loved eating grilled meat. She is the kind of person who would rather gain weight herself than miss out on enjoying a good meal of meat.She didn't speak, a piece of grilled meat wrapped in lettuce, topped with sauce, and then she stuffed it into her mouth.Foster looked at her as she put the meat into her mouth. Her lips were like a squirrel hiding a pine nut inside its mouth, and her cheeks were puffed up, making anyone who looked at her feel an increase in appetite.Foster rarely ate these, even during the difficult years, he didn't really touch them. When he was hungry, he would just eat a piece of bread and drink a large bottle of water.He was not like Hannah, who always seemed to have the greatest enthusiasm for food.On the contr

    Foster didn't move, just watched her.The two of them stood facing each other, neither willing to take a step back.It was the rush hour at this time. Hannah was standing inside the car, while Foster was standing outside, attracting the attention of many passersby.Joe arrived and saw Hannah standing inside the car, confronting Foster with a cold expression on her face.He hesitated for a moment before walking over and said, "Mr. Carroway?"Foster glanced at him and handed his phone to Hannah, saying, "I'll take you back, and Joe will handle the rest for you."Hannah took back her phone, "No need."She looked at the time and it had already been seven or eight minutes. Shouldn't the people from the 4S store have arrived by now?Hannah got off the car and was about to make another phone call to the person over there when she saw a trailer driving towards her."Miss Howell, I'm sorry, there was traffic on the way, so I arrived late."Hannah didn't say anything, she just told them to quic

    No one knew what was going on between Hannah and Foster. Rowan and Abigail returned empty-handed from Hannah's villa and had no choice but to reluctantly visit Foster in Kangsel.However, the two of them went to Kangsel for several days in a row but didn't see Foster. Rowan was doing better, but Abigail's family couldn't wait any longer. Abigail had no choice but to secretly go and find Hannah again.This time she couldn't even see Hannah, Hannah's assistant directly said that Hannah was not in the company, and she didn't wait for Hannah at the villa either.After another four or five days had passed, Abigail finally managed to get an opportunity to meet Hannah.Hannah had just caught a cold when she was stopped by Abigail. She frowned, her face looking somewhat cold.Abigail looked at her and came out directly, asking her for help in front of so many people.Hannah was annoyed. She had been avoiding Rowan and Abigail for the past few days, and it was making her restless. She was trul

    Hannah was also wondering when Rowan had become so humble, to the point of coming to the company specifically to apologize to her.That night, if it hadn't been for Foster coming out and mentioning Mr. Everitt, Rowan clearly didn't even want to say sorry.Hmm, that's strange.She had just wanted to call Sophia, but to her surprise, Sophia had already come in. "Miss Howell, Rowan and Abigail said they forgot to mention something."Hannah raised an eyebrow and said, "Let them in."She said it, didn't she?Rowan and Abigail turned back again, they looked at each other, seemingly discussing who should speak.Hannah didn't want to care about it at all, she tapped the table with the pen in her hand and said, "Cut to the chase, are you two playing telepathy over there?"Rowan's face stiffened, and Abigail took the opportunity to speak, “Miss Howell, you just said, that night's incident, that night has already passed, so can you please ask the influential figure behind you to go easy on the t

    On her way back, Hannah looked in the rearview mirror several times and, seeing that the black Bentley hadn't followed, she finally relaxed a bit.The traffic light was red ahead, so she stopped the car and looked at the red wine on her skirt, feeling very annoyed.Tonight was really unlucky. I ran into Rowan's crazy girlfriend and got splashed with red wine. And to make matters worse, I also bumped into Foster.Hannah felt more and more distracted, she didn't even notice when the green light in front of her turned on, until the car behind her kept honking, she snapped out of it and quickly drove.After returning to the villa, Hannah took a bath.The dinner was unpleasant, and I couldn't sleep well at night.In contrast, while Rowan and Abigail were also somewhat unwilling, they went to have a late-night snack after leaving the hotel and quickly forgot about this matter.Rowan didn't dwell on what happened last night and even went to Kangsel to meet Foster in the afternoon, wanting to

    This sound was familiar to Hannah, but unfamiliar to everyone else.However, Foster, the person in question, was recognized by the people present. After all, he was the CEO of Kangsel and made headlines on his first day in office after returning from overseas.Rowan naturally knew Foster as well. Their company had a collaboration with Kangsel, but the contract expired this year. Their company wanted to renew the contract with Kangsel. Rowan had even visited Kangsel twice, just to meet Foster, but unfortunately, he didn't get to see him both times.I didn't expect to run into you here.Hannah didn't want to deal with Foster, but due to the presence of others, she reluctantly responded, "What's up?""Your skirt is wet, you need to change it. Mr. Everitt asked me to come and take you to the changing room."Mr. Everitt was the host of today's business banquet, and to have gained the favor of Mr. Everitt is enough to prove Hannah's status, not to mention anything else.Rowan and Abigail ex
