Lucas really didn’t want to deal with the wedding because he knew very well that this wedding was just a show for the world, orchestrated by the Thomas family.Both he and Jessica were merely tools for Justin to gain reputation and profit.It was only because he happened to love Jessica and wanted to remarry her that he didn’t protest.But now, Justin’s words made Lucas rethink.Jessica had actually returned to the South town yesterday just to persuade Morgan to allow her to remarry him?He recalled that night; her indifferent attitude towards him, as if she didn’t care about remarrying at all.These days, Lucas had struggled with the idea. In moments of impulse, he even thought about running to Jessica and telling her to forget about remarrying.However, every time he felt impulsive, he couldn’t help but look at the old phone Jessica had left behind, where each message reminded him of how much she loved him.Lucas felt trapped in a cycle of doubt, unable to escape or figure out how to
Lucas didn't ask any further; he seemed to understand why Jessica was being perfunctory.The two of them ended the conversation just like that. Jessica didn't say anything else, just threw out, "I'm going back to work," and then got up and left.Today’s weather was rarely beautiful. When Jessica walked out of the restaurant, she couldn't help but stop.She turned around and saw Lucas looking at her.In those dark eyes was an emotion she had never seen before, something she had longed for deeply.Yet, at this moment, as she basked in the sunlight and looked back, she found that her heart was utterly calm.She even wondered how he had come to this?How did he come to like her?How ironic.The two of them stared at each other for three seconds. Jessica slowly withdrew her gaze, turned around, and walked towards the office without hesitation, just as she had when she divorced Lucas a year ago.Lucas watched Jessica’s back. He didn't know why, but he had a sudden feeling that this time, Jes
The groom's styling was completed much faster than the bride's. After getting ready, Lucas went out to greet the guests with Justin.When the guests saw Lucas, although his face was still icy cold, there was a noticeable warmth in his gaze. It was clear that he was in a good mood today.The wedding began as scheduled at 7:30 PM.Lucas, as the groom, had been backstage early on.After the host's opening remarks, Lucas was invited onto the stage. Following the script, the host began to guide Lucas to talk about his love story with Jessica.However, everyone knew that the second son of the Thomas family was always a man of few words and cold demeanor. The host initially worried that Lucas might not respond at all.But his fears were unfounded.While Lucas's answers weren't particularly elaborate, he did respond."Mr. Thomas, before you welcome the bride, I'd like to ask you a few questions that I'm sure everyone here is curious about. It's well known that this is your second marriage wi
The bride on stage wasn't Jessica!This realization shocked not only the guests but also Terry and Lucas.Jessica hadn't expected Terry to come on stage. She had spoken to him that day, thinking he wouldn't act impulsively, but to her surprise, he still rushed up.This was a matter between her and the Thomas family, and Jessica didn't want to involve Terry.Seeing him on stage, Jessica called out to him amidst the chaos, "Terry."Her voice wasn't loud, but in the large venue, Terry spotted her even before she spoke.Jessica was dressed in a simple long gown today, with her hair tied up and wearing sunglasses.No wonder no one had noticed her in the audience—many of the guests probably assumed she was some celebrity attending the event.Terry quickly came to his senses, stepping off the stage and heading toward Jessica.Lucas, too, noticed Jessica in the audience.Catching his gaze, Jessica didn't bother hiding anymore. She took off her sunglasses, revealing her delicate, petite face.I
Hannah had just closed the car door and was about to drive away when she noticed a problem.Terry was still standing by the car. Although he had stepped back a few steps, not blocking her way, his eyes remained fixed on Jessica, who was sitting in the passenger seat.Hannah smacked her lips, feeling an inexplicable sense of sourness in her mouth. She turned to look at Jessica, "Babe, why don't you go and take Mr. Davison’s car?"Jessica chuckled, "Why don't you just get out and let Terry drive your car?""......"Hannah wanted to say something, but more reporters were arriving.Knowing the urgency, Hannah had no choice but to drive away with Jessica.As they drove away from the hotel, Hannah glanced at the rearview mirror and couldn't help but hum, "Hey, you're really something. Mr. Davison seems quite infatuated with you."Jessica also saw the car closely following them in the mirror. She slightly lifted her eyes, "Focus on driving. If I remember correctly, you don't have many points
“It was me.”“I’m going to make him—”Jessica stopped mid-sentence as she realized what Terry had just said.She froze, staring at Terry in disbelief. “How could it be you? I—I...”The truth was so unexpected that Jessica couldn’t process it. She even thought Terry was joking. “You’re kidding, right, Terry?”Terry didn’t say anything, just looked at her.The way he looked at her told Jessica everything.She raised her hand to cover her eyes, feeling like this was some kind of absurd joke.The truth was awkward and unexpected, leaving Jessica unsure of how to respond.It felt as if the universe was playing a cruel trick on her!After a moment of silence, Jessica suddenly laughed. “The person who saved me eleven years ago was you, and the one that night four years ago was also you.”Terry, seeing her reaction, felt a pang of guilt. “I didn’t mean to pressure you.”He hesitated briefly. “I know it’s despicable to bring up that night now.”With that, Terry stood up and moved to Jessica’s s
Because of Terry’s kiss, Jessica almost had a sleepless night, only managing to fall asleep after 2 a.m.While some were asleep, others couldn’t rest. The story of the Thomas family’s wedding spread quickly, and within ten minutes, it topped the trending searches.No one in the Thomas family expected the bride to be Luna instead of Jessica. Over five thousand guests, all notable figures from LA, attended what was supposed to be a glamorous event for the Thomas family. However, the wedding turned into a laughingstock within the social circles.Before the wedding, the person most delighted was Justin. The union between the Hall and Thomas families was supposed to elevate the Thomas family even further. But his hopes were dashed, and Justin was so enraged that he fainted on the spot and had to be rushed to the hospital. It took over half an hour of emergency treatment before his condition stabilized.This time, Justin had a genuine brush with death. After the incident, the Thomas family m
Jessica didn't sleep well last night. She went to bed late, and even then, her sleep was restless.Terry’s words from the previous night had left her shocked. Shortly after their divorce, Terry had once forcibly taken a bracelet from her, claiming it was his. Jessica had suspected that perhaps Terry was involved that night and had asked Wendy to investigate. However, the results were the same as four years ago—no new information.Jessica had no idea how that bracelet ended up in her possession. Maybe she had encountered Terry before entering Lucas’s room. That was the only explanation she could think of. Otherwise, how else could she explain waking up the next day to find Lucas lying beside her?She had been drugged that night and was in a daze, but by the time she woke up the next morning, her mind was completely clear, and Lucas was undoubtedly the person beside her.It was clear that Lucas remembered what happened that night, or he wouldn't have wrongly assumed that she was the one
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
