Tonight’s banquet was hosted by the Jameson family, and all the attendees were part of the LA social circle.

Jessica and Terry were already the talk of the town, so when Terry entered the venue holding Jessica’s hand, many people couldn't help but glance at Jessica.

"They're really together, holding hands and everything!"

"So, those rumors from a few days ago were true—Mr. Davison and Jessica are actually together!"

"Honestly, I think Jessica and Terry look better together than she and Mr. Thomas ever did."

"I agree! Jessica always gives off this aloof vibe, even when she's smiling. It makes her seem distant. And Mr. Thomas, well, he’s almost always expressionless at these events. When two cold people are together, it just feels off!"

One woman swirled her glass of red wine and added, "But Jessica and Mr. Davison are different. Mr. Davison might seem like a playful and wealthy young man, but when he's with Jessica, they somehow complement each other."

The socialite next to her nodded i

    This evening, Jessica and Terry were surrounded by people they knew.As they walked through the crowd, many greeted them, to which Jessica responded indifferently. After a while, she turned to Terry and lightly shook her hand, which he was holding. "If you keep holding my hand like this, it’ll be too much."Terry, sensing her discomfort, smiled and released her hand, showing restraint at the right moment.Soon, some people who had ties with the Davison family came over to chat with Terry. Taking advantage of the situation, Jessica grabbed a glass of juice and moved aside.However, being a member of the Hall family also meant that Jessica had her share of admirers. Even when she stood alone, people continued to approach her for small talk—whether they were business acquaintances or young socialites eager to befriend the Hall family.After politely dealing with a few, Jessica grew bored and, switching her drink for a glass of grape juice, decided to step out into the garden.In December,

    The news about Olivia getting hit quickly reached Jessica.When she heard it, she just smiled.But Hannah was overjoyed. She was so thrilled that she wished she could install surveillance at the Thomas family home to capture the moment Olivia got hit on camera.“By the way, why did Lucas suddenly decide to hit his precious sister?”Jessica shrugged. “Who knows?”Jessica had no intention of spreading what happened that night.Not liking Olivia was one thing, but spreading the news about someone’s failed confession to make them a laughingstock was another.Jessica believed that everyone’s feelings deserved respect, even if Olivia was a bit overconfident in liking Eden.But Jessica had to admit, she admired Olivia’s courage to confess her feelings to Eden.Hannah snorted, “Looks like Olivia’s brother doesn’t love her as much as we thought.”Jessica smirked slightly and didn’t respond.While they were chatting, a waiter brought over two Pina Coladas. “Miss Howell, Miss Hall, these are from

    Terry, saying this, actually took out his phone.Jessica glanced at him. "No need for that."After speaking, she cast a sideways glance at Hannah.Hannah realized she had said something wrong and, feeling guilty, avoided eye contact. "Tanya’s calling me. I’ll head in first, you two carry on!"As she spoke, she retreated toward the entrance of the bar and, once there, quickly turned and ran back inside.Jessica watched Hannah's retreating figure and couldn't help but chuckle.How spineless."Would you accompany me for something to eat?" Terry asked. After a more than ten-hour flight, he was already hungry.Jessica had said she wanted to go home, not just to brush off Hannah. She had been working overtime the whole past week, so this rare free weekend was a time to relax and chat a bit. She didn’t have Hannah's energy to keep partying all night.She really did want to go home and sleep.But Terry knew very well that she was soft-hearted, and his approach was gentle. His voice was soft, a

    Terry had already noticed Lucas's car catching up in the rearview mirror, but he wasn't concerned. If Lucas wanted to follow him, so be it. What Terry hadn't anticipated was Lucas's madness—he rammed his car straight into Terry's.When the airbags deployed, Terry cursed. Even though Lucas hit the brakes at the last second, the impact was still significant. The force of the collision left Terry momentarily dazed, with his mind going blank for a second.The crash between the two luxury cars startled the passing drivers, who felt relieved they hadn't gotten involved. A minor scratch on these vehicles could cost a year's salary.Lucas had been driving a Porsche that night. Despite braking, the front of his car was badly damaged, and the windshield cracked, sending shards of glass into his hand, slicing a long gash across his hand.Blood flowed from the wound, but Lucas seemed oblivious. He pulled out his phone, suddenly feeling the urge to call Jessica and tell her he loved her.He knew he

    When Jessica spoke, her tone was completely flat, much like the way she looked at Lucas—cold and devoid of any other emotion.Some people say that the past should be left in the past. But for Jessica, whether or not she still loved Lucas, the wounds she had suffered would never truly heal.The events of that night were still vivid in her memory. The midnight rain was as cold as her heart had become.Lucas was questioning her ruthlessness?What a joke. When it came to being ruthless, no one could compare to him.She didn’t want to exchange another word with him. Now, when Jessica looked at Lucas, she felt nothing.She had decided to give up on this man, and she truly had.This time, Lucas didn’t dare to stop Jessica again.As he stood there, memories of that night a year ago flooded back to him.Ironically, a flash of lightning suddenly streaked across the sky, and a downpour began, just like the night he had forced Jessica to kneel before the Thomas family shrine.Over a year later, he

    Lucas was indeed in a bad state. When Vincent arrived at the hospital with Lucas’s spare clothes, the doctor informed him that Lucas had fallen unconscious.Vincent knew that Lucas had been suffering from insomnia for over half a month and had been worried that his body wouldn’t hold up. It seemed almost fortunate that Lucas had collapsed in the hospital.Lucas had been changed into a hospital gown, and the nurse explained that he had been in a car accident and, after getting his head injury bandaged, had gone out into the rain. Concerned about the wound getting infected, they had given him a hospital gown to change into, but as soon as he had changed, he collapsed.A man over six feet tall suddenly falling over had caused quite a commotion, and it took several night-shift nurses a lot of effort to get him onto the hospital bed.Fortunately, the tests showed nothing too serious; his heart rate and other vital signs were normal.Vincent was shocked by this and immediately had someone in

    Jessica felt a bit flustered by his words and tried to steer the conversation away. "I have a 9 o'clock meeting."Hearing this, Terry's playful smile faded slightly, replaced by a more serious expression. "There are still twelve minutes left. I’ll drive you there."Jessica wanted to say something else, but Terry had already closed the door and taken hold of her wrist. "Let's go, Miss Hall. Even though you’re the boss, being late to a meeting is never a good thing."He was right.Jessica didn’t argue further. If she did, it wouldn’t just be a few minutes of lateness.The morning rush had just passed, so while there was still a lot of traffic, it wasn’t gridlocked.Jessica was still late. As soon as the car stopped, she quickly unbuckled her seatbelt and got out. "Thanks, I’m going in.""I’ll pick you up later this afternoon."Jessica paused for a moment as she closed the car door. "Alright."Terry had driven her car away, so if he didn’t pick her up, she’d have to take a taxi home.Wend

    In December, LA was particularly cold at night. That evening, Terry took Jessica to the east side of town for lamb hotpot.The restaurant was located in the old city district, where parking spaces were already scarce. Since they arrived a bit late, it took them ten minutes to find a spot. The parking lot was at the boundary between a residential area and a shopping district, and apart from the occasional barking dog, there was only the sound of the wind.All four of Jessica's tires had been deflated, and by the time they noticed, they were already surrounded in the parking lot by the group who had done it.Outside, five or six men holding baseball bats were waiting. The leader stepped forward and knocked on the car hood. "Hey, handsome, pretty lady, you parked in our spot. Did you pay for it?"Terry glanced at Jessica, picked up his recently removed coat, and said, "Stay inside."With that, he opened the door and got out of the car. "Sorry, we didn’t notice. We’ll pay.""Tsk, handsome,

    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

    On the day of Gemma's seventh birthday, Hannah and Kendall went to the park and set up a tent. They invited Georgia and brought a small grill.

    After the cremation was completed, the staff asked Kendall to pick up the bones.Without waiting for Kendall to speak, she immediately refused.She couldn't understand this twisted "service". The loss of a loved one is already enough to make people feel desperate and miserable, and after cremation, they actually make people go and pick up the bones.Even though it was just symbolically picking one or two, it still remained incomprehensible.This was simply cruel and incomprehensible.The people in charge of the cemetery burial had already made arrangements. After leaving the funeral home, the group followed the car to the cemetery.The location of Gemma's grave was very good, and the photo on the tombstone showed her in her thirties, looking young, elegant, and beautiful.The urn was placed inside, the tomb was buried, and everything came to a complete end here.Hannah looked up at the distant sky with red eyes.The weat
