Jessica assumed that when Terry mentioned eating hotpot, it meant he had found a new hotpot place he wanted to try. It wasn’t until the car stopped in front of a villa that Jessica realized where Terry intended to have their hotpot.

Terry took out his phone and opened the gate to the villa. As the gate slowly rose, Jessica turned to him with a playful smile. "Is there hotpot inside?"

Terry returned her smile, showing no signs of guilt. "There is."

As the car slowly drove into the property and parked in the garage, Terry unbuckled his seatbelt and looked at Jessica. "Afraid?"

Jessica thought Terry was underestimating her. "What’s there to be afraid of?"

She unbuckled her seatbelt, pushed open the car door, and stepped out.

Terry watched her, his eyes gleaming with amusement.

It was Jessica’s first time at Terry’s villa. The interior was simple and bright, but it was clear that the place wasn’t frequently lived in. The b

    Jessica looked up and almost bumped into Terry's chin.Terry lowered his head slightly and raised his hand to point at his forehead, saying, "Can you help me wipe it?"Jessica looked at his finger, a drop of sweat was running down the man's forehead. The bead of sweat had reached his brow and was about to fall into his eyes.Jessica pursed her lips and raised her hand to wipe away the sweat drop with her thumb pad. "Done."With a warm touch on his soft fingertips, Terry looked at her, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly, and the smile in her peach blossom eyes became even more enchanting. "Thank you."Jessica took a step to the side and said, "I will serve these.""Okay."This hot pot meal was clearly planned in advance by Terry. The beef and tripe were very fresh, taken out from the soup that had been simmering on medium heat for over forty minutes. Even just dipping them in soy sauce was enough to make them delicious, after all, they were very fresh.The "Goof" trapped outside on the

    Terry looked at her and smiled without saying a word.The two of them stared at each other and played the game for nearly five minutes. In the end, Jessica was defeated and said, "It's getting late, I should go back."It is indeed getting late. It is already half past nine. It will take more than half an hour to go back, and it will take more than half an hour to wash up at home. Jessica may not be able to fall asleep before eleven o'clock.Terry rubbed his temples and looked as if he was really drunk, saying, "I drank alcohol, and you also drank alcohol."He seemed to be simply stating the fact, "I called Jerry to come and take you back."Terry spoke, paused for a moment, and looked at her with a smile in his eyes and on his face, "If you want to stay, you can. I have already prepared your room."Jessica looked at him, and her first reaction was "premeditated."But he spoke so openly as if he was the one who cared, which made her appear petty.At this moment, Goof, who had been quiet

    There was only Jessica left in the room. She stood by the bed, feeling a bit abnormal.Why did she agree to stay?Ah.Drinking really caused trouble.But since she had already stayed, Jessica didn't want to think about it anymore.She was not a melodramatic person. She and Terry were both unmarried, so even if something happened, they wouldn't have betrayed anyone.Thinking about the morning meeting tomorrow, Jessica collected her thoughts and went to the wardrobe to find a set of pajamas.When Jessica's gaze fell upon the clothes stacked below, she felt her face instantly heat up upon seeing the lace edges.Terry was indeed... meticulous!Jessica finished taking a shower and came out. There were a few unread messages in her phone, which were emails sent by Wendy.Jessica clicked into Line and entered Hannah's chat box. Today's messages only went up until noon, when she asked Hannah to come pick her up and go to Lune Restaurant. After that, there was a blank space.At this time in the

    When the car stopped downstairs of the Hall Group, it was during the rush hour.Terry's car today was unusually low-key, casually parked downstairs without attracting much attention.Jessica undid her seatbelt and said, "Thank you, I will treat you to a meal another day."Terry looked at her and said, "You must have said this more than three times. Which day exactly, Ms. Hall?"Jessica thought for a moment and said, "I should go to Fresno in a couple of days. I won't be in LA this week, but I'll treat you to dinner when I come back next week, okay?""Just kidding."He said, handing her a packaged cup of black sugar ginger on the side, "It's cold weather, drink more, it's beneficial."Jessica didn't react at first. "What is this?"Not until she held it in her hands and smelled the faint scent of ginger did she know what it was."Thank you."It was getting late, and Terry took the initiative to open the car door for her.Jessica got out of the car holding a cup of ginger tea with brown

    Jessica was not someone who couldn't bear hardships, and she only found out about the Hall family being the richest after she became an adult.She was raised as an ordinary girl from a regular family since she was young. The conditions at home were slightly better than average, but she still understood the hardships of life.But Graham saw that Jessica was not speaking and felt a little uneasy in his heart. "Ms. Hall, is it possible that these conditions--"Jessica smiled and said, "Graham, you misunderstood. It's just that I haven't been on such a long car ride in a while, so I might feel a little carsick."Graham had no way of knowing whether Jessica's words were true or false, but seeing her gentle demeanor, he didn't say anything further. "This way is all mountain roads, and it can be a bit bumpy to go up the mountain. It's also getting late. Ms. Hall and Wendy should freshen up first, and later we can have dinner inside the hotel."This place was really poor, as Jessica saw on he

    Because it snowed, the road was difficult to walk on. The originally three-and-a-half-hour journey took over four hours. The group arrived at the base after 1 pm.The so-called base, in fact, was just a red brick wall surrounding the area. Facing the main entrance were two connected two-story bungalows, which housed the research lab and offices.Including the researchers, there were a total of five people at the base.Graham led Jessica and introduced her to the personnel at the base. The people at the base knew that a "big shot" was coming today, so they had prepared lunch early.They also tried their best to help Selma out of poverty. For lunch, Jessica had a lot of rare and precious mushrooms that she rarely ate, as well as a pot of herbal chicken soup, which was stewed with local specialty herbs.After lunch, Jessica and Wendy rested for half an hour and then followed Graham and the researchers to visit the greenhouse.I have to say, Jessica really didn't come in vain this time.

    Jessica didn't sleep well last night. Just now, she was sleeping soundly in the car when she was suddenly awakened. She didn't pay much attention to what Harold said.Wendy saw her frowning, looking a bit confused, and explained, "Ms. Hall, a tree fell and blocked the road. I didn't notice it earlier, so I had to brake suddenly."Jessica woke up at this moment and nodded, "I understand."She responded by glancing outside the car window. The wind and snow outside had become much heavier compared to when they had set off. Looking into the distance, she saw a vast expanse of white snow and heavy snowfall with strong winds. The visibility was only about two or three meters, so it was no wonder Harold hadn't noticed that tree earlier.With that in mind, Jessica averted her gaze and looked ahead at the car.Harold had already reached the fallen tree trunk, which was not a very big tree, but it had fallen to a height of seven to eight meters and was very sturdy, weighing around three to four

    Terry arrived at Selma's a little after three in the afternoon. This time, he came with a poverty alleviation project, but the poverty alleviation project in Terry's hands is not in Selma, but in Riverdale next to Selma.Terry knew that the Hall Group was also building poverty alleviation projects here this year, and thinking of what Jessica said that day, he guessed that Jessica had come over here.Jerry took some time to find out that Jessica went into the base in the mountains today, but Jessica and Wendy will take a flight the day after tomorrow morning, and they will definitely return to town tonight."Mr. Davison, Ms. Hall will definitely come back tonight. It's still early, so why don't we go to the place where Ms. Hall lives and wait for her?"Terry looked out of the car window at the wind and snow, with lowered eyes and a somewhat cold expression. "Hmm."The snow seemed to be falling heavier and heavier.Jerry heard Terry respond and instructed the driver to go to the house w

    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
