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 thoughWhen 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
Wendy felt relaxed and joked, "Miss Hall, it seems that you are quite satisfied with Mr. Davison." Jessica did not see that coming. She smiled awkwardly and said, "Perhaps you may go to the meeting room now." "Yes, Miss Hall." After Wendy knew that Jessica had no intention of remarrying Lucas, she was no longer worried about Jessica. But the news spread too fast and the people in the company also knew about it. Many people were privately discussing Jessica and Lucas' remarriage. When Justin heard that Jessica had agreed, he immediately had people spread the news that Jessica was going to remarry Lucas. He set the wedding in the middle of the next month and then informed Lucas of the wedding date without asking his opinion. Justin then hurried to have the invitations and the ceremony prepared. Not only did people in LA know about Jessica's remarriage, but all in the US had known about it. When Morgan and May heard that, they t
Though Lucas didn't seem to have confirmed, Hari knew that was a yes. He was very surprised. "What's wrong with Jessica? Why will she remarry you? Is she lying to you? Did you check with her? Is this really happening?" Hari threw over one question after another, like a shooting rifle. Lucas found what Hari said quite upsetting. "Why can't she marry me again?" "Given where you two have come, I don't think she will remarry you if she's rational." "Now you are saying Jessica is being irrational?" Lucas' voice sounded cold. Hari could tell his displeasure, so he stopped teasing and said, "Well, not necessarily. Perhaps you're her true love after all." It could be true love, but to put it bluntly, it was foolishness, too. However, Lucas was Hari's buddy. Since Jessica was willing to remarry Lucas, Hari was happy for him. Lucas did not want to listen to Hari's voice anymore, so he hung up the phone. Hanging up the phone, Luc
The driver happened to be at home today and was being escorted out by another police officer.He, on the other hand, didn't cry and shout like his wife did, even when he was being escorted out, he kept his head down, as if he was afraid of being too embarrassed in front of the neighbors.The wife, who had been crying and complaining incessantly, suddenly stopped shouting. The man, as if sensing something, glanced inside the car and when he saw Jessica, his face immediately turned pale.That woman...Even though almost a year had passed, the man still recognized the beautiful woman at first sight.As the saying goes, if you have done no wrong, you need not fear the knock of a ghost at the door.After that day, the man had several nightmares in a row, but as time went by, he gradually forgot about them.I didn't expect that after a year, the other party would come to my door with the police.The man lowered his head, forced a bitter smile, and muttered, "Retribution! Retribution!"If th
Suddenly, there was a "drip" sound outside the door, and Jessica knew that Terry had come back. She quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.Terry pushed the door open and entered the room. Jessica was still on the couch, with her head tilted back, smiling at him. "You're back so soon?" she said.Terry walked over and only then did he see that Jessica's eyes were a little red.He put down the things he was holding in his hands and bent his body halfway in front of Jessica. He held her face with both hands and said, "Did you cry secretly?""No way."He looked at her and suddenly raised his head to kiss her on the eyes.Jessica trembled for a moment, and the emotions in her heart instantly magnified. She fell into his arms and hugged him, saying, "I don't know why, but it feels like I haven't seen you guys for a long time."Before today, she didn't remember anything. The missing memories of over twenty years made her silent when facing the past.If she couldn't remembe
Upon hearing his words, Jessica inexplicably choked up, "What if it wasn't?""No if."He spoke and tightly held her hand.Jessica blinked her eyes and said, "I was a little hungry.""I went to buy ravioli for you.""Okay."Jessica let go of her hand and leaned back on the sofa, looking at him as he touched his stomach and asked, "Is the little one okay?"Terry also touched her abdomen, “It's fine."It has been over four months, almost five months, and Jessica's belly is still not very noticeable.But knowing that there was a life growing inside, I placed my hand on it, even though I couldn't feel anything, a wave of tenderness still surged in my heart.Terry glanced at her and said, "Behave, I will go buy you some food.""I knew."It was almost 8 o'clock now. After lunch, both Jessica and Terry hadn't eaten anything. At this time, they should have been hungry.Terry took his phone and said, "I will go downstairs to buy some food.""Go."She was not a child, so there was no need to wat
Jessica was still asleep, with an oxygen tube inserted in her nose, looking as if she was sleeping.Terry walked over and held her hand, then followed the gurney back to the regular ward.The hospital in this town was simple, and there weren't many people in the inpatient department. Jessica was assigned to a separate ward.The nurse gave Terry a few instructions and then left, leaving the ward filled with the sound of machines.Jessica's forehead was scratched, and it bled, but the bleeding was not excessive, and the wound quickly coagulated.Terry used a wet tissue to wipe away the bloodstain, and just as he threw away the tissue, his phone started vibrating.It was an unfamiliar number.But Terry still remembered the incident with the police. He picked up his phone and stood in front of the window by the door, watching Jessica inside, while answering the call, "Mr. Policeman?""It was me. Is Mrs. Davison alright?""Having just recovered from shock, the doctor said there was no majo
Halfway through the interrogation, Terry received a message from Jessica and he immediately interrupted the officer in front of him, saying, "Sorry, I have to go back, my wife is in danger."The police officer taking the statement also had some difficulty processing it, “Your wife..."Terry didn't have time to think about it, Jessica wouldn't easily send such a message again, she sent a distress signal, the situation must be very bad.Seeing Terry get up and run, the police officer who was taking the statement quickly chased after him, saying, "Mr. Davison, if your wife is in danger, we can send help..."Terry didn't wait for him to finish, “Well, thank you, officer! I'm going back first!"The car stopped at the entrance of the police station, Terry turned the car out of the road, and as soon as the car got on the main road, he stepped on the accelerator.The car drove away all of a sudden, at a very high speed. When the police ran out, Terry's car had already disappeared.Terry almos
The sunlight at twelve o'clock was even more intense. Eamon was scolded by Jessica, and although he had the intention to run away, he lacked the courage to do so. Who knew when Jessica would come out of the house.He was tied to a tree, although most of the sunlight was blocked by the leaves, it was still very hot at noon, and Eamon was suffering as his body still hurt from the several places Jessica had just hit him.Jessica and Terry were leisurely eating lunch inside the house, eating to their heart's content. It was only after they had finished eating that Jessica took out her phone and called the police.The police took more than twenty minutes to arrive, and when Eamon heard the sound of the police siren, he instinctively trembled.Terry glanced at him and went out to meet the police, “Hello, I am the husband of the person who made the report."Terry made a simple self-introduction, “My wife got scared by a thief, which caused her to have a miscarriage. She is currently resting
Eamon realized it and instinctively wanted to run, but Jessica also reacted quickly, reaching out and smashing the coconut she had just taken a few sips of onto him.Terry, who was standing by, immediately dropped what he was holding and ran up to grab the tattered oil-paper umbrella by the door. He forcefully smashed it onto Eamon's ankle, causing him to scream in pain, "Ah!"Eamon fell directly from the wall, and he was about to resist as soon as he got up, but unfortunately Terry had a very solid oil-paper umbrella in his hand, and he was hit again as soon as he got up.After being hit more than ten times, Eamon couldn't bear it and quickly begged for mercy, saying, "Please stop hitting me! I was wrong!"Terry turned around and glanced at Jessica, saying, "Bring the rope."Jessica turned and entered the small room next to her, pulling out the hemp rope from under the bed.Eamon, who fell to the ground, attempted to escape. Terry, seeing that he was being dishonest, fiercely struck
Denzel arrived at the hospital and remained unconscious. That night, he was transferred to the ICU.It had been several days since Jessica heard the news when she and Terry arrived in Tonopah.It was almost June, and as soon as Jessica got off the plane, she felt a wave of heat.Plus, back in January, Eamon came over causing trouble, and Jessica was a bit concerned about the condition of the yard.The temperature today was a bit high, and Terry was worried that Jessica couldn't handle it, so he didn't go over there immediately after coming out of the airport.The two of them stayed in the city for the whole night and only took the car over early the next morning.There weren't many households in the village to begin with, and it seems that the big yellow dog that used to chase after Jessica is now gone.Jessica and Terry asked the neighbor next door and found out that there was an old man in the village who fell while picking vegetables in the vegetable field more than three months ag
Denzel had been talking to Lucas all along, and in the few short seconds before the elevator arrived, there were only Denzel's childish voice and Lucas's occasional "uh-huh".The elevator came quite fast, and Jessica and Terry were the first to enter.There were no other people inside the elevator, only the five of them.Jessica and Terry were in the right corner, while their family of three was in the left corner.Terry held Jessica's hand, lowered his head to look at her, and the two exchanged a glance, only to smile slightly and never speak.After about five or six seconds, the elevator finally reached the first floor.Jessica and Terry didn't move, watching as Lucas and the other two exited the elevator. Only then did Terry say, "Let's go."Jessica glanced at him, and both of them instinctively slowed down their pace. The family of three in front of them gradually moved further away, until they were about ten meters apart. It was only then that Jessica spoke, "Are he and Susie pla
