It seemed that Morgan knew Justin well after all.
The latest rumors had a great impact on Jessica and even the Hall family. Yesterday, Morgan received two calls. The callers asked if he wanted to join forces with the Thomas Group. That was why Jessica was so angry this time. She was angry at Lucas not because he failed to stop Justin, but because he asked for her forgiveness when he didn't do anything to make up for her. In the past, Jessica made Lucas the priority. That was the cause of their divorce. Now, all the people in the upper-class society were laughing at Jessica, not for her colorful private life, but for her remarriage to Lucas within a year after her well-known divorce. To be honest, many people looked down on Jessica. Morgan only had one daughter. In the future, the huge Hall family was destined to be in her hands, so there were many people who wanted to marry Jessica. However, Jessica turned back to herMorgan had been in the business world for so many years, how could he not understand what Justin was implying? However, Morgan's achievements today meant that he was not the kind of person to be trifled with. No matter what Justin said, Morgan only just said, "Mr. Thomas, I understand your concerns, but I'm old and have already seen through these things. I still respect my daughter's choice." Justin did not expect that early in the morning, after wasting so much time, all he got from Morgan was "I just hope Jessica is happy. She can do whatever she wants." When he heard that for the third time, Justin had run out of patience. "Mr. Hall, you are such a good father! Since you are very busy, I won't disturb you anymore." Justin then hung up the phone. He didn't reach an agreement with Morgan. Justin did not expect that Morgan still did not care about the rumors at all. Justin was baffled. Didn't Morgan know how people commented on Jessica now
Justin did not know if Jessica did it on purpose, but he knew that Jessica would never take the initiative to visit him. Justin knew that it would certainly take time to persuade Lucas and Jessica to get married again, but the clock was ticking. Justin was no fool. A lot of things had happened these days. He supposed that the Hall family might not have responded yet. When they did and traced back to Justin, remarriage would be impossible then. The Hall family would be enraged. Justin wanted to make Jessica and Lucas remarry before the Hall family could react. Having heard what Wendy said, Justin thought for a while with a sullen face. "Miss Hall is busy. I can understand. I disturbed her. People at my age have a lot of free time. Please tell Miss Hall that I will be waiting for her. We'll have lunch together." Wendy nodded. "Yes, Mr. Thomas." Wendy knew she couldn't make their intentions too obvious. Jessica was making things hard for Justi
"Both our family and the Hall family are not ordinary families. Something like this can have a great impact on both our families. So I came to you this time to settle the whole thing." When Jessica heard that, she laughed. "What do you suggest then, Mr. Thomas? Perhaps I could use your wisdom." "Well, given where you and Lucas have come, it's quite tricky to deal with. I also know that you have always been in love with Lucas, Miss Hall. Back then, you married into our family because of Lucas. You divorced him because you felt that Lucas did not love you, and you were wronged in the family. Up to now, you two have been divorced for a year. And over this year, I have also reflected a lot. As Lucas' grandfather, I have to admit that I didn't do well and have let you suffer in our Thomas family. "As for Lucas, he has never been a man who displays his emotions. If he didn't like you back then, why would he insist on marrying you when I was against it? His personali
Jessica looked at Justin, who was standing in front of her. She had to admit that Justin was a skillful liar. Wedding before procedures? What was the difference? In that case, people would all assume that she was married to Lucas. That was really a good plan. In the end, Justin was trying to trap Jessica. Justin's words made Jessica, who originally had some sympathy for him, feel very unhappy. She said nonchalantly, "Mr. Thomas, your top priority right now is receiving treatment. As for what you said, I will consider it carefully. Give me some time." "Miss Hall, it's not that I don't understand you. It's just that I don't have much time left." Justin coughed twice, looking very weak. "How about this? I'll think about it today and give you an answer tonight. What do you think?" Jessica looked very sincere so that Justin couldn't push her any further. "Then I'll be waiting for your call." Justin had been waiting in the conference room for a
Jessica hung up the phone and put on a mischievous smile. She wondered if Justin would become furious and really end up in the hospital in due course. Right after Jessica's call, Justin dialed Lucas' number. Justin knew that Jessica wouldn't be so heartless. After all, she had been deeply in love with Lucas before. Jessica rejected Lucas last night. When Lucas went back to his own apartment, he locked her phone in a cabinet. He was determined to ignore Jessica and anything related to her. Lucas frowned when he saw the caller ID on his phone. Justin called him only for two things. One, pushing Lucas to remarry Jessica. Two, telling Lucas to eat at home. Lucas liked neither. He looked at the phone that was vibrating on the table and had no intention of answering. The phone vibrated for about half a minute before it hung up automatically. However, in just two seconds, the phone vibrated again. The caller ID
Before finding out that Justin was pretending to be sick, Jessica still hedged about retaliating against Justin. However, after learning that Justin was pretending to be sick to gain her sympathy, although Jessica did not say anything, she was furious. She also realized that Olivia and the Cheek sisters were not the only reason why she couldn't get back together with Lucas. It was also because Lucas was the heir of the Thomas family. Lucas could send Olivia away and punish Luna, but he could do nothing to Justin. In that case, Jessica would have to take the initiative. They would be even then and Lucas wouldn't feel guilty anymore. Even if Lucas might hate her, she didn't care. She only wanted to get rid of the past. It didn't take Jessica a long time to "think" about the wedding with Lucas. She left the meeting room at seven in the evening and called Lucas. After the divorce, Jessica directly blacklisted Lucas. Jessica never though
When Jessica and Terry walked out of the steakhouse to the parking lot, they happened to run into some students sending out questionnaires. Jessica and Terry were stopped. "Mister, Miss, can you please fill out some questionnaires for us?" "Sure." Jessica was in a good mood today, so she agreed. That was not something she would normally take a fancy to. She took over the pen and filled it out. Seeing that, Terry did the same. More than ten seconds later, Jessica and Terry were both done. They were about to leave when a girl took out a bag and asked, "Thank you guys for your help. Here are some little gifts." Jessica did not take them over. "Thanks, but no thanks." The girl seemed to be a little disappointed. On the side, Terry suddenly chimed in, "You got us wrong. This beautiful lady here is not my girlfriend. Any other choices we have?" Hearing that, the girl seemed to be delighted yet also a little embarrassed when she loo
When Jessica and Terry returned to the car, it was already ten o'clock in the evening. Terry drove on their way back. Jessica didn't sleep well recently. She fell asleep right after getting into the car. Only when the car suddenly stopped with a bang did Jessica wake up. Jessica opened her eyes and looked at Terry, still in a haze. "What's wrong? A shunt?" "No biggie. Stay in the car." As he spoke, Terry had already unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car. As Terry opened the car door, some cold air blew in, which made Jessica sober up at once. She looked at the two men who got out of the car ahead. The driver was obviously legless. He walked up to Terry and tried to push Terry. But Terry dodged him. The driver spoke loudly. "Are you blind? Do you even know how to drive? I want indemnity! You are not going anywhere before giving me 10 thousand dollars." As the man spoke, he pulled out an iron rod from the trunk and pla
