  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

      Terry stepped forward and explained the situation to the police with a smile, "My name is Terry Davison. Half an hour ago, when we were driving normally, the car ahead suddenly braked. I had no choice but to brake too. That's why I hit their car. The driver then got out of the car and asked me for 10,000 dollars. I smelt alcohol on that gentleman. They were all drunk, so I didn't want to argue with them. I pretended to agree to the compensation and asked my friend, Jessica, to call the police, but before my friend could call the police, this gentleman took an iron rod from the trunk...  "Their request was very rude. As a man, I couldn't bear to see my friend get insulted like that. So I stopped them. But the gentleman was angry and tried to hit me with the rod. The other gangsters joined the fight, too."  Trey stated the incident clearly. And in the end, he tilted his head and smiled, pointing to the car that had been smashed by Billy. "Officer, the drive recorder of o

      Jessica was not surprised at all. After all, she had already agreed to remarry Lucas. Justin certainly wanted them to hold the wedding as soon as possible.  Jessica seemed too calm to Lucas. Lucas felt that Jessica did not seem willing to remarry him at all. "Jessica, do you really want to remarry me?"  Jessica looked at him, the smile on her face fading. "I said I want to take revenge on you." Her answer remained unchanged.  Lucas pursed his lips. "If you think it's too fast, I can talk to Grandpa and put the wedding off for some time. We..."  Lucas was trying to say "we could try seeing each other again first". Yet Jessica spoke over him. "Since he's in such a hurry. Let's do it as soon as possible."  She also wanted to settle it as soon as possible. She was eager to cut ties with the Thomas family for good.  Jessica didn't feel like talking to Lucas anymore. She was afraid that she might not be heartless enough to do this.  With that, L

      "Juvenile? Lucas, do you think I'm juvenile?"  "You are always credulous. You trust people who don't deserve your trust. They can only affect your judgment. Aren't you juvenile?"  Terry laughed. "Lucas, you are too conceited!"  Terry then snorted. "Lucas, you are not the only one who is right in this world. The difference between you and me doesn't make me wrong. You are too conceited."  But Lucas did not want to argue with Terry. He was afraid that Jessica would come down like the last time and then see him and Terry in a ridiculous fight.  Lucas glanced at Terry coldly, then turned and left.  Lucas was annoyed.  Because he realized that Terry had fallen for Jessica indeed.  Terry got close to Jessica not because he wanted to go against Lucas. Terry did that simply because he was in love with Jessica.  When he realized this, Lucas' face immediately darkened.  He turned around, only to find Terry had already vanished from

     Jessica looked at the suitcase that Terry had given her. After hesitating for a moment, she still carried the suitcase and went in.  Jessica saw the way Terry had just looked at her. His eyes were red. She could read helplessness and pain in his eyes as if he was a child who had done something wrong, not knowing how to make up for it.  Jessica couldn't bear to see him like that, but her heart was indeed a mess now.  Jessica lowered her head, gritted her teeth, and closed the door.  Jessica sat on the sofa for a long time and she felt that she was a little too cruel to Terry.  She put her hand on her eyes and leaned against the sofa. She then fell asleep.  After some time, Jessica was woken up by her ringing phone.  She froze a bit and then got up from the sofa. She saw the caller's number. It was Wendy calling, reminding her of a meeting to attend.  Jessica rubbed her head and answered the phone. "Wendy, I'm sorry. I'm in the middle o

    Hannah looked up at him and struggled to hold back her tears.After Eden put her in the car, closed the car door, took two steps back, and stood beside Georgia, they watched her.The car windows were wide open, and Hannah looked at her parents from inside the car. She had always believed that she wouldn't cry on a day like this, but her eyes turned red in an instant.I don't know why, even though it wasn't a long-distance marriage, Kendall and she were childhood sweethearts who knew each other inside out, but she still felt a bit melancholic.Maybe it's because after getting married, one would have two additional identities.However, Gemma has already passed away, and the mother-in-law relationship was completely non-existent for her.In the morning, Hannah was talking about Georgia, who had shallow eye sockets. Now, her eyes are also red, and she is wiping the tears from her eye sockets with a tissue.The scene was actually quite liv

    Kendall saw Hannah nod and had already locked in four numbers.He pursed his lips and said, "Is it related to my birthday?"Hannah nodded again, and the only common number between their two birthdays was 2.Kendall did not ask the third question and directly gave the answer: 2.Mona laughed and said, "You guessed pretty accurately."Hannah drew another card, the questions could not be repeated, the two questions from earlier could not be asked again.But this didn't pose a challenge for Kendall, as he directly asked Hannah if the cards in her hand were unrelated to today's date.Today is October 17th, and he was able to eliminate three numbers all at once. If he was lucky, the answer would be among these three numbers.Hannah's expression changed, she pursed her lips, and then she spoke, "No."Kendall, however, suddenly laughed and said, "It was 7."The groom's confident words made the groomsmen behind him feel sk

    The members of the groom's party were eager for a quick resolution, and their first question was how many red envelopes it would take to open this door.If the gatekeeper was someone else, maybe the other person could have easily unlocked the gate by adding a few more codes.But the gatekeeper was Jessica, no matter how many red envelopes were handed to her, she remained unmoved.Finally, the people outside had no choice but to beg for mercy: "Ms. Hall, just tell us, how can we open this door today!"Jessica curved her lips and said slowly, "Simple, let Kendall speak."As soon as she finished speaking, Kendall outside the door spoke up, "What do you want?""I had no demands, I asked you three questions, and if your answers satisfied me, I would open the door and let you in.""You asked."Kendall was determined to open this door. Even if Jessica had asked three questions, or even thirty questions, he wouldn't have minded.

    Hannah rarely had insomnia, and she didn't fall asleep until almost 2 o'clock in the morning after lying down around ten o'clock.The next day, before six o'clock, Georgia woke me up. Her eyes couldn't open, and she kept yawning as she opened the door.Georgia was very puzzled when she saw her like this, "I let you go to bed before ten o'clock last night, why are you still so tired?"Hannah raised her hand and yawned, feeling guilty: "I went to bed after 11 o'clock, and I even woke up in the middle."Georgia sighed and said, "Go wash your face and brush your teeth, the makeup artist has arrived."Hannah was pushed into the bathroom and stood in front of the mirror for a while before she started washing her face and brushing her teeth.Cold water splashed onto her face, and after coming out of the bathroom, she felt much more awake, but the drowsiness was still irresistible.The makeup artist and cameraman had arrived, and they were ju

    After saying that, Hannah only realized that her words were a bit straightforward.Her face grew hot and she quickly changed the subject, saying, "Shall we go to the cemetery this afternoon?"Kendall looked at her for a while before speaking, "Okay."Hannah was pregnant, so naturally she had to tell Gemma.If it had been discovered earlier, Gemma might have known about Hannah's pregnancy.But in this world, many things do not have "ifs". Some things just cannot be perfect.After the two of them had lunch at the Howell family, Hannah took a nap and then they left around two o'clock to go to the bridal shop to have the size altered.Afterwards, Hannah went to the flower shop and bought a bouquet of peonies, and she went to Western Cemetery with Kendall.After Gemma passed away, Kendall's grandfather had originally planned to take her back to their hometown for burial, considering that Gemma had spent her whole life trapped within

    Hannah was held by him for a while and felt a bit hot. Unable to resist, she pushed him lightly and said, "It's a bit hot."Upon hearing her words, Kendall placed her back on the bed and asked, "Did you tell Jaylen and them?"Hannah shook her head and said, "No, you're the dad, so of course I have to tell you first."She said, pausing for a moment, "I will tell them at dinner tonight.""Okay."Kendall looked down at her belly, but this month she didn't show at all, and there was nothing to see.He looked for a while and then said, "Go to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow."Hannah thought the same way, she didn't even know how long she had been pregnant.If we count from the last menstrual period, she has been pregnant for at least two months.In the past two months, she didn't feel anything at all.Hannah nodded and suddenly felt a bit tired, opening her mouth and yawning.Seeing her like this, Kendall g

    Kendall glanced at her sideways and said, "Isn't it obvious?"Hannah, of course, knew that he was looking at her, but she just wanted to ask and confirm."This photographer was quite good at taking photos."Kendall's gaze was quite affectionate.She looked at the photo for a while again, and then happily put it down and looked at other photos.However, there was only one photo that was captured so well, the rest were mostly intentionally posed and the outcome was good.Hannah had been flipping through hundreds of photos for over three hours when Kendall finally took the album from her hands and forcefully carried her away, saying, "Go take a shower, if you don't shower now, you won't be able to wake up tomorrow."Hannah hooked her arm around his neck, raised an eyebrow, and looked at him. "Don't you like the photo? Why aren't you looking at it?""There was plenty of time to take a slow look later."Hannah clicked her ton

    Hannah was really happy today. The news of Gemma's passing had been affecting her and Kendall's mood these past few days.When I returned to the company today, I learned that we had signed such a big project. Naturally, everyone was happy no matter who it was.During the dinner, Hannah drank a bottle of beer and couldn't drive back home, so she had to ask Kendall to come and pick her up.More than two months ago, she and Kendall announced their marriage by sending out wedding candies, and everyone knew about the wedding.However, many people in the company had never seen what Kendall looked like. After the dinner, they all gossiped and stood on the roadside, waiting for someone to show up.Hannah rarely felt embarrassed, "Why don't you go back? It's already late, you won't be able to wake up tomorrow.""Ms. Howell, rest assured, I set more than ten alarms. It was absolutely impossible for me to be late for work!""Was Ms. Howell worri

    Hannah and Kendall returned to the villa late in the evening, feeling hungry and impatient as the takeaway they had ordered in advance had not arrived yet. They also got wet when they rushed inside."Go take a shower first."Kendall handed her a cup of warm water and gestured for her to go upstairs.The rain was pouring heavily, and it was still pitter-pattering down at the moment. Hannah also felt a bit cold.She drank a few sips of water, then she put down the cup and went upstairs to change clothes and take a shower.Hannah was both hungry and cold, so she took a hot shower and then went downstairs.Kendall just came in with an umbrella, carrying takeout. "You go ahead and eat, I'll go upstairs and change into a fresh set of clothes."Hannah walked over to the dining table and sat down, watching him take out and arrange everything.Kendall placed the chicken soup in front of her, "Drink the soup first, so it doesn't get cold
