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
Jessica followed him into the steakhouse. It was dinner time, there weren't any vacancies. But Terry had already made a reservation in advance, so once they arrived, a waitress came over to lead the way. The environment was delightful. Though all the seats were taken, the place wasn't noisy at all. There was also a violinist on the spot. The appetizers were served soon. Jessica did not eat anything at noon. After several hours of meeting, she was already starving. She glanced at Terry and said, "I'm a little hungry. Do you mind if I start eating now?" He raised an eyebrow and pushed the soup towards Jessica. "Do you have to ask that?" Jessica smiled and did not say anything else. She lowered her head and started eating. Ladies didn't talk when eating, so Jessica kept mum during the meal. Both kept silent during the meal. Terry had already finished eating. He sat there and watched her quietly. When Jessica finished, he asked, "Jessic
What the Thomas family had done caught Luna and Trissy off guard. Since Luna learned about the news yesterday, she had never thought of any solution. A good solution might mean that they could get into the Thomas family, so Trissy was quite anxious when Luna couldn't come up with one. "Luna, have you thought of anything? If you can't, then I'll do it my way!" At this time, Luna was also very agitated. When she heard that, she glanced at Trissy. "Trissy, what's your plan then?" "Previously, we spread the news that you were pregnant, but it didn't ripple much. Jessica's scandal caused an uproar, but Mr. Thomas actually did not care. Can't you tell that something was not right?" Trissy made a fair point. That was what made Luna at a loss. In retrospect, Luna realized that she and Trissy might have been made use of by Justin. If that was true, then Jessica... Luna hated where the deduction was going. If that was true, then Jessica was t
Jessica spoke with sarcasm, and Luna almost couldn't hold it in anymore. But Luna was so used to pretending. She would never express her jealousy and hatred in front of Jessica. "Not at all, Miss Hall. I'll have the maid mop the floor." Jessica walked in before Luna could even finish. Luna did look calm. The date of Lucas' wedding was already announced, yet Luna was still able to face Jessica with a smile. Jessica entered the room, and Luna even made her a cup of tea. However, Jessica didn't drink it. What happened two months ago taught Jessica a lesson. Jessica learned not to be credulous anymore. She wouldn't drink anything offered by untrustworthy people. Not to mention in Luna and Trissy's territory. Jessica didn't know if they would poison her. Luna didn't seem to mind when Jessica didn't touch the tea. Jessica looked at her and got straight to the point. "You should have heard that Lucas and I are going to get ma
Jessica did not expect Justin to act so fast. He had just made an official announcement yesterday, and today, he had already called Morgan. When the car stopped at the Hall's villa, it was already seven in the evening. It was completely dark, and as soon as Jessica got out of the car, May came up to her. "Jessica, why did you suddenly come back?" Jessica walked over. "Well, I have something to tell you and Dad." May had been holding it in for the entire day. Now that she saw Jessica, she could not help but ask, "Jessica, let me ask you, are you really planning to remarry Lucas Thomas?" Morgan and May always spoiled Jessica and treated her gently. Even if Jessica made a mistake, they rarely scold her. The only time when Morgan and May got so angry with Jessica was when she insisted on marrying Lucas. And now, Jessica saw the same serious and worried look five years ago on May's face. Jessica looked at May. She couldn't help bu
