  The next day, Jessica was in her office, dealing with some contracts, when Wendy walked in with a lot of documents.

  After Jessica signed the documents, Wendy still didn't leave. She hedged a bit before she said to Jessica, "Miss Hall, there's one more thing you need to know."

  Seeing Wendy hedging, Jessica chuckled. "What, Wendy? Is there something so bad that even you don't dare to mention?"

  Wendy shook her head. It wasn't that she didn't dare say. It was just that she didn't know how to say it. "I've got the news. Justin seems to have gone to New York. He is going to visit Mr. and Mrs. Hall with gifts."

  Upon hearing Wendy's words, Jessica immediately understood Justin's intention. "He can do whatever he wants. My parents won't agree to what he asks."

  Not everyone was as peacockish as Justin.

  Wendy nodded. It was indeed annoying. But Justin was no commoner. It wasn't proper to stop him from meeting Jessica's parents.

      Morgan and May looked at each other. No one touched the so—called compensation agreement.  Morgan waved his hand and said, "Mr. Thomas, the past is in the past. Don't mention it."  "How can you say that, Mr. Hall? These things were indeed in the past, but I can't ignore the harm the Thomas family has done to Jessica. This is just a small compensation. Mr. Hall, please accept it. Just see it as a way to reassure an old man."  When Morgan heard Justin's words, he couldn't help but sneer deep down, but he still kept a smile on his face. "What is Mr. Thomas saying? Jessica has a big heart. It's been almost a year. She won't take it seriously."  Justin sighed again. "Mr. Hall, what happened in the past was all my fault. I was stubborn in the past, which was why Jessica had suffered so much. Don't worry. In the future, I will never let anyone in the Thomas family say anything harsh to Jessica!"  Hearing that Justin finally got to the point, May immedi

      "Young people sometimes may forget about manners, yet, as the elders, we have to keep them. They are young, so it's easy for them to get turned on. I get that, so I'm not blaming them. Besides, it was Lucas' fault. As a man, he didn't protect Jessica well. But what's going on between them has been widely spread. Both our families value reputation. So, personally, I think we should get the procedures done as soon as possible.  "In that case, the outsiders will only say how much they love each other instead of those harsh words. Mr. Hall, Mrs. Hall, what do you think?"  Justin was talking about Jessica and Lucas being snapped in the hotel.  May secretly spat. She almost couldn't hold her impulse to curse.  Morgan looked solemn, too. Justin seemed to be talking for Jessica's good, yet it annoyed Morgan.  It was normal for young couples to sleep outside. Besides, nothing really happened between Jessica and Lucas. Why did Justin picture Jessica as a slut?

      Dwayne couldn't help but ask, "But, Mr. Thomas, how will that help us?"  Justin was annoyed by Dwayne's confusion. He glared at Dwayne and said, "Didn't Morgan and his wife say that they didn't give a damn to these rumors? If we spread the news of me visiting the Hall family, the netizens will begin to gossip for sure. Let's see if Jessica's parents can really be as insouciant as they have claimed to be."  Rumors! Their power never faded.  Once the rumor was spread, any clarification from the Hall family would look like a cover story. They would not be able to prove anything.  Dwayne instantly understood. "Now I understand, Mr. Thomas."  Morgan didn't know what Justin was up to. After his anger subsided, he couldn't wait to call Jessica.  Jessica already knew that Justin had gone to New York in the morning. She could guess Justin's intention, but she didn't expect that Justin would even make up a story, saying that she and Lucas were in love.  The truth was Jessica and Lucas

      Jessica usually wouldn't drink too much at any dinner party. If it weren't for the fact that one of the guests was in charge of the approval of her projects, Jessica would probably have started to refuse the drinks.  Jessica frowned at her glass. She didn't feel like drinking any more wine.  Thus, Jessica decided to pretend to puke. After all, no one would dare to make things difficult for her.  With that in mind, Jessica lowered her head. Suddenly, a cold voice chimed in, "Mr. Wyatt, I'd like to propose a toast."  It was Lucas. He hadn't even looked at Jessica since he entered, but now he had solved her problem.  Jessica lowered her eyes and looked at the wine glass in her hand. Then people started to make fun of the two.  Someone teased Lucas, saying he must be protecting Jessica.  "Well, well, well. Despite his young age, Mr. Thomas seemed to be reminiscent. Miss Hall is, after all, Mr. Thomas' ex-wife. We'll respect Mr. Thomas' choice!"  "Miss Hall drank quite a lot toni

      Lucas felt that he was haunted today.  Jessica was the only lady at the table, so the men found all kinds of excuses to push her to drink.  When Mr. Wyatt poured more wine for Jessica, Lucas couldn't help but look over.  Jessica was two people away from Lucas, so he couldn't see the look on her face clearly. But still, Lucas could tell that Jessica wasn't feeling well.  Lucas didn't want to help Jessica at first. It was not his place to help her.  But Lucas just couldn't bear to see Jessica frowning. He chimed in anyway and drew the big shots' attention to himself.  And he could have stopped after two glasses of wine.  Yet he didn't. As long as someone filled his glass, he would drink it as if he was drinking water.  Lucas didn't know what he was doing. He recalled a text in Jessica's old cell. "He seemed to have drunk a lot today. He tossed a glance at me, on purpose or not. Nice!"  In the past, Jessica was indeed deeply in love with Lucas. She could even be pleased by his

      Lucas and Justin made quite a big noise in the study. Dwayne could even hear their conversation from outside.  Naturally, Rebecca, who had followed Lucas upstairs, heard what Justin had said too.  Dwayne had no right to tell Rebecca to leave. Rebecca said she had something to say to Lucas and would just wait outside.  At first, Lucas and Justin didn't make too much noise, so Dwayne didn't ask Rebecca to leave.  He could never have guessed that the two would end up quarreling.  Well, that couldn't count as a quarrel. Justin did all the yelling.  That was no big deal since he was Lucas' grandfather.  But things became awkward when Justin mentioned Louis and Louis' mistress.  Rebecca was Louis' wife. The topic Justin had brought up was embarrassing to her.  Right now, Justin was obviously furious, and Dwayne didn't dare to knock on the door to interrupt him. He could only stand there expressionlessly.  Rebecca had been marri

      Though Justin cared about benefits a lot, he had admitted that Louis couldn't marry a wife with a better family background than Rebecca. Louis' reputation was already ruined.  But Rebecca was too weak to control her husband. Her son was not close to her, and she couldn't teach her daughter well, either.  If Max was still alive, Justin would still take his daughter—in—law seriously, but now that Max was gone and Lucas was not close to Rebecca, Justin could just vent his anger on her.  He paused for a moment and said, "Whatever. I don't care if she heard it or not."  Even if Justin decided to welcome Louis' wife to the Thomas family, Rebecca wouldn't dare to have any objections.  Dwayne looked at Justin, hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but say, "Mr. Thomas, actually, Lucas still respects Mrs. Thomas."  Justin frowned and said, "Fine. Tell her to come up later."  After all, Rebecca was Lucas' mother.  Rebecca only

      Lucas felt as if he had a headache. "Please don't get me wrong. That's not what I mean. I just feel that you have been trapped in this house for so many years. Now that you are in your later years, you don't have to stay here for anyone."  This was the first time Rebecca had heard Lucas say such sweet things to her. Rebecca's eyes turned red. "You don't have to worry about me. I'm doing well."  Rebecca was numb to many things now. She wished nothing but the best for her children.  Lucas knew Rebecca was stubborn and didn't want to say anything more. "Take care of yourself. I'll mind my own business."  "Okay, then come back to eat more often when you have time."  "I see."  Lucas responded and turned to leave.  Despite what he said, Lucas actually didn't want to come back even if he had time.  Rebecca was not the reason. It was just the Thomas family was like a cage to Lucas.  Too depressing. Too suffocating.  Rebecca saw L

    Olivia asked behind her, "So how do I find you then?""Tomorrow morning at ten o'clock, I will come to the front of this store."Jessica tightened her backpack and quickly plunged into the crowd at the market.Olivia quickly took out her phone and called Lucas.It was Jessica! She really found Jessica!When the phone rang, Lucas frowned. He thought it was something related to work and didn't even want to look at his phone.However, the phone in his pocket kept ringing incessantly. Annoyed, Lucas took out his phone and asked, "What's the matter?""Brother! I found Jessica! Brother! I found her!"Upon hearing Olivia's words on the phone, Lucas thought he had misheard, "Could you repeat that?""I found Jessica! Dude! Really! But she seemed...""Where were you?""Where am I? Oh, right, I was in Long Town, in front of a clothing store called 'Fashion Apparel Shop'.""I knew it."After hanging up th

    Olivia was very excited. Since the incident of being kidnapped, she had been reflecting on many things she had done in the past. She realized that she had indeed done many childish and unwise things before she matured.It has been half a month since the kidnapping incident, she is safe and sound, but Jessica has remained silent all along.Olivia occasionally recalled that night, Jessica's hint to herself, and felt a little guilty in her heart.She wanted to find Jessica, but she couldn't endure hardships and climb mountains, so she had to bring people with her to go from village to village to find her.Long Town is only about thirty kilometers away from Copper Town, where Jessica went missing.This was her first time coming to such a backward place, where the so-called market was all on one street. Olivia called out several times, but Jessica quickly disappeared into the crowd.Olivia stood there, doubting if she had mistaken someone.

    The incident involving Olivia and Jessica quickly spread within the circle. As Terry, Lucas, and Morgan, along with others, searched for Jessica, the news of her disappearance couldn't be concealed.On the fifth day of Jessica's disappearance, Lucas went straight to Terry and demanded Luna without hesitation.Terry had not had a good night's sleep for five consecutive days. Every time he closed his eyes, Jessica would cry and ask him why he hadn't arrived yet.When Lucas came over, he had just returned from Irvine.He and Morgan searched Santa Ana and Oceanside almost carpet-like, but couldn't find Jessica. The reward notices sent out also didn't yield any valid information.They still haven't been able to determine which city Jessica escaped to.Finding someone in a city was already like finding a needle in a haystack, and now there are even more cities.The only fortunate thing was that Jerry, based on the contact information provid

    Terry and Lucas arrived at Jerry's place in the afternoon, and it had been fifty hours since Jessica went missing.Terry had two properties over here, which were early development projects by the Davison Group. He came over for a business trip and bought them three months ago. Now it's convenient for hiding Luna."Mr. Davison, Mr. Thomas."Jerry opened the door and Luna, who was already tied up by him, was sitting on the chair.After he opened the door, he voluntarily left. Terry, Lucas, and Luna were the only ones left in the room.Seeing Lucas, Luna smiled and said, "Lucas, did you receive the gift I gave you?"Lucas gritted his teeth, his face filled with anger, "Where is Jessica?""Dead! Didn't I send you the ashes?"Luna spoke and glanced at Terry, "By the way, did you give that ring back to Mr. Davison?"Terry stood aside, lowered his head and lit a cigarette, without saying a word.Luna giggled and said, "M

    Terry didn't say much and hung up the phone directly.Rodney saw him hang up the phone before he continued speaking, "Mr. Davison, what do you have in mind?""My thoughts aligned with Rodney's, so we relied on Rodney over here."The police in Phoenix and LA collaborated and came from LA to Phoenix, passing through five cities. Phoenix was responsible for searching near Surprise and Tucson on this side, while the police on the LA side were responsible for searching in the cities of Santa Ana, Oceanside, and San Diego.Rodney looked at Terry and couldn't help but feel a sense of astonishment. Last night, Terry was so anxious that he actually vomited blood. Rodney had been in the industry for many years and had some experience, but this kidnapping case was different from the others. It wasn't for money or profit; it was for revenge.The other party had clear intentions and was extremely cunning. They had also made preparations in advance, making it ev

    "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
