  "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 restaurant. It was rush hour and the restaurant was full of people. However, Terry had reserved a table in advance. As they entered, a waiter led them inside.Jessica hadn't had steak in a while, so she was glad that Terry brought her here today.The restaurant had a pleasant ambiance. Even though it was full, it wasn’t noisy, with soft violin music enhancing the atmosphere.The appetizers arrived quickly. Jessica hadn’t eaten much at lunch and had been in meetings for several hours in the afternoon, so she was quite hungry.She glanced at Terry and said, “I’m a bit hungry, do you mind if I start eating?”He raised an eyebrow and pushed the soup towards her. “Why so polite?”Jessica smiled and started eating without saying anything more.It wasn’t the right time to talk during a meal, and Jessica didn’t intend to.The meal was rather quiet. Terry finished eating early and sat quietly watching her. When she finished, he asked, “Jessica, even if Lucas doesn’

    Jessica turned around to see Terry standing half a step behind her, holding an umbrella.She was stunned. “Didn’t you leave?”Terry held the umbrella in one hand and a cigarette in the other, which was only a third smoked. His smile was faint, and the smoke blurred his charming eyes, making it hard for Jessica to read his emotions.He took another puff of his cigarette and said, “I wanted to take a gamble.”Jessica calmed down and asked, “Did you win?” "That's a question I should be asking you."Jessica looked at the box in her hand and burst into laughter. “Terry, has anyone ever told you that you’re dumb?”In her whole life, she had never met a man more foolish than Terry.“Wait.”He interrupted her and placed the umbrella in her hand. “Wait for me.”With that, he stepped into the rain, walked back to the mall’s entrance, and threw his cigarette into the trash can before entering a convenience store.Jessica stood under the umbrella, watching him. He soon came back out and walked to

    Terry held Jessica tightly. When he said, "You finally came to find me," Jessica felt an unexpected pang of sorrow, and for a moment, she couldn't bring herself to push him away.She had no idea that someone had silently cherished her for so long.Outside the car window, the rain was pouring heavily, and the wind blew into the car, creating a chill. Yet, Jessica felt warm in Terry’s embrace.After about two seconds, Terry loosened his hold and smiled at her. “Let me take you back.” Jessica looked at him, wanting to ask if he was curious about why she wasn't genuinely seeking to remarry Lucas but was still having a wedding with him.But she thought about it and decided not to ask.Well, Terry would find out soon anyway.The car began to move slowly. Terry raised the window, and the rain outside seemed torrential. On such a night, there were hardly any pedestrians on the streets.Twenty minutes later, the car stopped at the entrance of Jessica's apartment building.Terry got

    Given the current situation, neither Trissy nor Luna wanted to meet Jessica.However, they didn't expect her to come to them first.Jessica smiled, "I have a proposal I'd like to discuss with Miss Cheek."Just as she finished speaking, Luna came, "Sis, who was it?"Seeing Jessica, Luna's reaction was almost identical to Trissy's. However, she quickly regained her composure within a second. "Miss Hall, it’s been so long."Luna greeted Jessica with a friendly smile, not showing any guilt or hint of wrongdoing on her face."Miss Cheek, I have a proposal to discuss with you."Trissy had never liked Jessica. She had disliked her even when they were both in the Thomas family. Now, it was even more so.Upon hearing Jessica's words, Trissy coldly responded, "What is there to talk about? We have nothing to discuss with you, Miss Hall. You are not welcome here!""Sister!"Luna pulled Trissy back. Trissy looked at Jessica and snorted coldly, "Whatever!"With that, she turned and went back to her

    When the car stopped at the Hall family villa, it was already past seven in the evening.The sky was completely dark. As Jessica got out of the car, May Hall came up to her. “Baby, why did you come back so suddenly?”Jessica walked to her side. “It’s because I have something to discuss with Mom and Dad.”May had been holding back all day, and now that she saw Jessica, she couldn’t help herself. “Dear, tell me, are you really planning to remarry that boy from the Thomas family?”The Hall parents had always been gentle and loving towards Jessica. Even when she made mistakes, Morgan and May rarely gave her the cold face.The one time they ever fell out with Jessica was because she insisted on marrying into the Thomas family years ago.After four to five years, the same seriousness and concern appeared on May’s face.Looking at May, Jessica felt a mix of emotions about how much time had passed and guilt for the trouble she had caused her parents in her youthful ignorance.“Mom, don’t worry

    Julie looked up and said, "I will go and have a look."She turned around and ran over to Hannah's side, as she spoke.Just now, Hannah saw that there were crabs in the cage and curiously asked Jessica, "Will there be crabs in the cracks of these stones?"Julie hadn't really thought about it, but don't crabs usually like to hide in crevices in shallow water? So she casually replied, "Sure, if you want to catch one, go down and take a look for yourself."Hannah really rolled up her pants, went down the stream, and searched for crabs among the gaps in the rocks.The stream was clear, you could see to the bottom at a glance.Hannah didn't take long to find a crab. She was planning to catch it and show off to Jessica, but the crab ran too fast. She kept finding several others, but they all managed to escape.This time she saw a quite big one, and didn't want to let the crab just run away like that, so she shouted for Jessica.Julie

    Hannah was curious about everything, so when she saw that bamboo house, she pulled Julie and asked her all sorts of questions.Terry walked alongside Morgan and May, both of whom were quite advanced in age. Although the mountain was not very high and not difficult to climb, it still required physical effort, and the two of them fell behind by quite a bit.When they arrived in front of the bamboo house, Jessica and Hannah were already not inside the bamboo house.Terry poured the leftover tea for May and Morgan and pointed to the door of the bamboo house, saying, "Uncle, Aunt, Jessica said that Mr. Garrison found her in front of this bamboo house."Upon hearing Terry's words, Morgan's hand holding the teacup trembled.He also didn't care about drinking water anymore, and got up and walked to the front of the bamboo house.Just now they came up from the mountain and saw only a bamboo house amidst the lush greenery. There was a stream flowing n

    I have to say, the three questions that Hannah asked in a row were the same questions that Morgan and May were concerned about.Jessica lost her memory, and they all didn't want to put pressure on her.They only have one precious daughter. When they first learned about Jessica's accident, both of them were devastated. Now that they have finally found her, Morgan and May naturally want to bring Jessica back home.Just now, Jessica and Terry walked in, talking and laughing. Both of them felt quite emotional inside.At this moment, the person most eager to have Jessica return should be Terry, and the person most anxious for Jessica to regain her memory is also Terry.But Terry seemed to have no worries about these issues. As parents, they couldn't bear to see Jessica struggling."It's true that this place was a bit poor, but Jessica lived happily and was doing fine."May sighed and said, "It's true, Jessica was definitely raised on a ped

    Terry was clearly puzzled, "Will there be wild rabbits and pheasants on this mountain?"This side is all small hills, they are called mountains, but the altitude is not high, only about one or two hundred meters. It takes about three hours to go up from the foot of the mountain to the top slowly, and it takes a little over an hour to go up quickly.More than twenty years ago, it was not uncommon to see wild pheasants and wild rabbits. Given the current ecological environment, it is indeed quite unexpected to still have wild pheasants and wild rabbits.Julie looked at him and smiled, "What Roberto said, anyway, those who run in the mountains, nameless and faceless, what are they if not wild chickens and hares?""That's right."Terry thought that Roberto was indeed quite interesting. You said he was a bad person, but he didn't hesitate to save Jessica. You say he is a good person, but he is actually very "carefree".The two of them crossed the

    Terry paused for a moment, watching Jessica's figure disappear. It was only then that he noticed Roberto lying on the lounge chair about ten meters ahead.At that moment, the sun was scorching hot, and Roberto covered his face with a straw hat to shield it from the direct sunlight.Julie walked over and looked at the sun hat on Roberto's face, raising an eyebrow and shaking her ponytail. She took a few steps forward and pulled the fishing line hard.Feeling the fishing rod in his hand move, Roberto quickly sat up from the lounge chair."Old man, there was a fish on the hook!"Roberto saw her and snorted, "What are you here for?""I saw you fishing!"Roberto scoffed, "It was you who pulled the fishing line just now, right?""Don't accuse me wrongly, I didn't do it."Julie didn't admit it.Roberto heard the commotion from Terry's side, turned his head and saw Terry throwing a bamboo cage into the stream. He instinct

    Because Morgan and the others were still asleep, Julie had to leave a note on the table in the living room.Afterwards, she took Terry into the mountains.When the two of them were leaving, Lucas was still there. Seeing them leaving, he also followed along.Terry glanced at Jessica and didn't say anything.Julie paused and turned her head to look at Lucas. "Mr. Thomas, I suggest you go back and take care of your company. Although I have lost my memory and don't remember our past, I believe that since we got divorced, I must have had my reasons."She spoke, paused for a moment, and finally glanced at Lucas before bluntly adding, "Persistent pestering, it really lacks the grace of a man."Jessica before her amnesia had said something similar.With just one sentence, she left Lucas speechless.But he knew that Jessica had lost her memory, it was a second chance given to him by fate, even though he felt despicable in doing so.

    Julie walked into the backyard and saw the clothes thrown in the trash bin. She glanced at them and then carried the clothes into the bathroom.Julie finished taking a shower and washing her hair before going out. Hannah was sitting at the door of the west wing and when she saw Julie coming out, she got up and tried to cover up the truth, saying, "There are too many mosquitoes over there."She spoke and showed her arm that had been stung.Julie glanced and said, "There were many mosquitoes in the evening, I suggest you wear long sleeves."Their clothes were brought by a woman who drove over after the rain stopped. The woman seemed quite excited when she saw her, her eyes even turned red as she looked at Julie.But Julie couldn't remember anything, so she just nodded her head as a way of greeting.The clothes Wendy brought over were quite thoughtful, as she prepared several sets for each person.Hannah obediently went to change into lo

    Terry reacted quickly too. Upon hearing Jessica's words, he closed the box and threw it back into the pit.Julie hurriedly filled the soil back with a shovel. This box of gold, indeed, could not be exposed to light casually!She guessed that there were valuable things hidden inside, otherwise, during the few days she was unconscious and drugged, it couldn't possibly have been dug up by the old man going up the mountain.In the first few days after waking up, Roberto still made her drink medicine.Although Julie didn't have the ability to distinguish medicines, she could clearly recognize the thick ginseng placed in the kitchen.Although it is said that all ginseng nowadays has been cultivated, the one Roberto uses for medicinal purposes is mostly wild, and it grows so long. It must be quite expensive.It should be at least a few thousand, if not tens of thousands.This was just the money for a medicine, and later Roberto also bought h

    Hannah saw Terry coming and tactfully left the kitchen.Terry also glanced at Jessica and said, "I just saw a big yellow dog."Julie paused her action of scrubbing the pot and said, "Tsk, you're quite naughty too."Terry looked at her, his eyes twinkling with a smile. He didn't say anything, but Julie somehow understood what he meant from the look in his eyes.She averted her gaze and started heating up the pan.Roberto was very stingy. He didn't give her much money, even though he knew they were going to the market today.Julie had one hundred and fifty dollars in her pocket and wanted to buy everything. But after looking around, she paid eighty dollars for clothes, and she was left with seventy dollars in her hand.Fortunately, things in remote and impoverished areas were cheap. She bought several pounds of pork and pig bones. She originally wanted to buy chicken, but Roberto said there were wild chickens in the mountains. When she
