Jessica was stabbed, and her little finger trembled. She quickly withdrew her hand, feeling inexplicably guilty, and dared not look at Terry anymore. She turned around and left the ward.Jessica had just walked out of the ward when she saw Jerry approaching with a food container."Ms. Hall?"Jessica nodded and smiled, "Did you bring dinner over?"Jerry, of course, wanted to help Terry get some extra points at this time. Upon hearing Jessica's words, he quickly nodded and said, "Mr. Davison said that you just woke up and have no appetite, so you can't drink much soup. He instructed me to have someone stew some light stomach-nourishing porridge for you."Jessica looked at Jerry and, just like that, she could tell what he was really saying. She didn't expose him, but instead, she just smirked and said, "Thank you, I just woke up and I'm a little hungry.""I helped you bring it in."Jessica didn't refuse either, she just remembered Terry. "Terry was sleeping inside."Jerry paused for a mo
She lowered her head and looked at the pill in her palm, smiled, and then picked up the hot water that Terry had prepared.The hot water that was just poured out is still a bit hot.Jessica took a tissue and placed the medicine on it, intending to wait for the water to cool down before taking it. The wind blew, it was a bit cold, and the distant lights reflected over. Terry's face seemed to be radiant with flowing colors.He looked at her and smiled, not knowing what there was to be happy about.Jessica pushed him lightly and said, "That's enough, Mr. Davison."Jessica glared at him and rubbed her eyes. "Go back."She was not a person who showed off her abilities. After walking for a while, she realized that the weather was indeed cold. If she stayed any longer, she might end up getting a fever again.Jessica hasn't taken a shower these past few days, and she went to the intensive care unit again last night. She has improved a lot today, so she naturally wants to take a good shower.A
The person who came was Vincent, Lucas' secretary.The door of the ward was not closed. Vincent stood at the door, knocked on it, but did not receive a nod from Jessica and Terry, so he did not come in.On the sickbed, Jessica heard a knock on the door. She glanced at him and saw that the person at the door was Vincent. The smile on her face faded slightly as she said, "Vincent?""Ms. Hall, Mr. Davison, sorry to bother you."Vincent also sensed Jessica's change in mood, but he couldn't do anything about it.Lucas, that person, really wouldn't listen to anyone's advice. As a secretary, even if things were urgent, there was nothing that could be done to Lucas."Is there something wrong?"Although Jessica didn't like seeing people related to Lucas, she couldn't just tell them to go away when they were being so polite and courteous.Of course, Jessica didn't mind if Lucas was the person standing at the door at that time.After all, she really hated seeing Lucas now.Vincent glanced at Ter
When Vincent returned to the hotel after leaving the hospital, Lucas, who had no idea when, had already gotten up from the bed.He was wearing a sweater and sitting on the sofa, bowing his head and smoking.The ashtray was already filled with cigarette butts, indicating how heavily Lucas smoked.Vincent also didn't dare to let Lucas know that he went to see Jessica. He placed the breakfast he bought on the coffee table and said, "Mr. Thomas, have some breakfast and then take this fever-reducing pill."Lucas glanced casually, unaffected.Vincent pursed his lips and, with a determined expression, said, "Mr. Thomas, if you don't take care of your health, how can you win back Ms. Hall?"Upon hearing his words, Lucas paused with the cigarette between his fingers. After a moment, he tugged at the corner of his mouth and asked, "Do you think I can win her back?"That day, he told Jessica in the hospital that he wanted to compete fairly with Terry and pursue her again.But he knew that, in th
Wendy only heard about Terry riding a horse in front of the rescue team to enter the mountains and save Jessica in such a heavy snowstorm after she woke up.In the face of life and death and absolute interests, any love, family affection, or friendship can turn into enmity.Even though Terry and Jessica are no longer in a romantic relationship, Terry still recklessly rushes into the mountains to save Jessica.This friendship and sincerity, Wendy, as an observer, were indeed very touching.She didn't have any strong feelings towards Terry before, but she just thought that he had been pursuing Jessica for over a year and she hadn't accepted him yet. As her subordinate, she naturally felt that Terry was not the right person for Jessica.But now, looking back, there are probably not many men who would give up their lives for Jessica.Wendy now feels that Jessica and Terry would have been happy together, after all, she had been watching them for so long as an observer.The person who was o
"Didn't you dislike black sugar ginger tea?""Are you Jessica? Wasn't black sugar and ginger the two things you disliked the most? Didn't you say that black sugar ginger tea was the drink you couldn't stand the most? Oh, you said that black sugar ginger tea cannot be called a drink, it's a dark cuisine!""Jessica? Could you please tell me about the specific incidents at kindergarten when you were five years old and forgot to wear your underwear, if you haven't been possessed by anyone?"Jessica didn't want to go back originally, but when she heard Hannah's words, she couldn't help it and said, "Isn't that person you?""Phew, thank goodness, you weren't possessed! So why did you suddenly start drinking black sugar ginger water, normal you? Please answer my question directly, Jessica Ms. Hall!""I'm getting older and need to take care of my health. Alright, I'm going to take a shower now. I have an early flight tomorrow. Goodbye."After replying to the message, Jessica threw her phone o
Wendy looked down at the photos on her phone and hesitated for a moment. In the end, she decided to wait until Jessica and Terry were together before sending these photos to Jessica.After all, such a beautiful photo, overflowing with tenderness, Jessica would also be very delighted if she saw it."Wendy?"Jessica noticed that Wendy was daydreaming again, so she couldn't help but call out to her again.Upon hearing her voice, Wendy snapped back to reality and said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Hall. I was just thinking about something else."Jessica laughed and said, "What could make Wendy think about something while walking?"Wendy looked at Jessica and said, "Some wonderful things.""Oh."Jessica thought that Wendy had met someone she liked, so she didn't ask any further. "Did you reschedule with Mr. Robertson?"If there hadn't been a blizzard that night and they had successfully descended the mountain, Jessica would have arrived in LA yesterday afternoon, and the dinner party last night wouldn'
It had been three days since Terry returned to LA when he told Jessica yesterday afternoon that he would come back today.Jessica felt that she owed him so much, so she had to show some appreciation. So, for once, she took the initiative and asked, "Do you need airport pick-up service, Mr. Davison?""Although I really want Ms. Hall's service, I have to go back to the office directly later. I hope this service can be stored for the next time I use it."Jessica thought about the public opinion online these days and also knew what Terry would face when he came back. "Okay, then we'll use it next time.""Next time, I will use it properly."Jessica looked at the message on her phone and felt like Terry was talking about something else.The sound of knocking on the door rang out, and Jessica collected her thoughts. "Come in."Wendy pushed the door open, holding the documents. "Ms. Hall, these are some materials that Graham organized for us. I have already finished analyzing them.""Okay, th
The driver happened to be at home today and was being escorted out by another police officer.He, on the other hand, didn't cry and shout like his wife did, even when he was being escorted out, he kept his head down, as if he was afraid of being too embarrassed in front of the neighbors.The wife, who had been crying and complaining incessantly, suddenly stopped shouting. The man, as if sensing something, glanced inside the car and when he saw Jessica, his face immediately turned pale.That woman...Even though almost a year had passed, the man still recognized the beautiful woman at first sight.As the saying goes, if you have done no wrong, you need not fear the knock of a ghost at the door.After that day, the man had several nightmares in a row, but as time went by, he gradually forgot about them.I didn't expect that after a year, the other party would come to my door with the police.The man lowered his head, forced a bitter smile, and muttered, "Retribution! Retribution!"If th
Suddenly, there was a "drip" sound outside the door, and Jessica knew that Terry had come back. She quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.Terry pushed the door open and entered the room. Jessica was still on the couch, with her head tilted back, smiling at him. "You're back so soon?" she said.Terry walked over and only then did he see that Jessica's eyes were a little red.He put down the things he was holding in his hands and bent his body halfway in front of Jessica. He held her face with both hands and said, "Did you cry secretly?""No way."He looked at her and suddenly raised his head to kiss her on the eyes.Jessica trembled for a moment, and the emotions in her heart instantly magnified. She fell into his arms and hugged him, saying, "I don't know why, but it feels like I haven't seen you guys for a long time."Before today, she didn't remember anything. The missing memories of over twenty years made her silent when facing the past.If she couldn't remembe
Upon hearing his words, Jessica inexplicably choked up, "What if it wasn't?""No if."He spoke and tightly held her hand.Jessica blinked her eyes and said, "I was a little hungry.""I went to buy ravioli for you.""Okay."Jessica let go of her hand and leaned back on the sofa, looking at him as he touched his stomach and asked, "Is the little one okay?"Terry also touched her abdomen, “It's fine."It has been over four months, almost five months, and Jessica's belly is still not very noticeable.But knowing that there was a life growing inside, I placed my hand on it, even though I couldn't feel anything, a wave of tenderness still surged in my heart.Terry glanced at her and said, "Behave, I will go buy you some food.""I knew."It was almost 8 o'clock now. After lunch, both Jessica and Terry hadn't eaten anything. At this time, they should have been hungry.Terry took his phone and said, "I will go downstairs to buy some food.""Go."She was not a child, so there was no need to wat
Jessica was still asleep, with an oxygen tube inserted in her nose, looking as if she was sleeping.Terry walked over and held her hand, then followed the gurney back to the regular ward.The hospital in this town was simple, and there weren't many people in the inpatient department. Jessica was assigned to a separate ward.The nurse gave Terry a few instructions and then left, leaving the ward filled with the sound of machines.Jessica's forehead was scratched, and it bled, but the bleeding was not excessive, and the wound quickly coagulated.Terry used a wet tissue to wipe away the bloodstain, and just as he threw away the tissue, his phone started vibrating.It was an unfamiliar number.But Terry still remembered the incident with the police. He picked up his phone and stood in front of the window by the door, watching Jessica inside, while answering the call, "Mr. Policeman?""It was me. Is Mrs. Davison alright?""Having just recovered from shock, the doctor said there was no majo
Halfway through the interrogation, Terry received a message from Jessica and he immediately interrupted the officer in front of him, saying, "Sorry, I have to go back, my wife is in danger."The police officer taking the statement also had some difficulty processing it, “Your wife..."Terry didn't have time to think about it, Jessica wouldn't easily send such a message again, she sent a distress signal, the situation must be very bad.Seeing Terry get up and run, the police officer who was taking the statement quickly chased after him, saying, "Mr. Davison, if your wife is in danger, we can send help..."Terry didn't wait for him to finish, “Well, thank you, officer! I'm going back first!"The car stopped at the entrance of the police station, Terry turned the car out of the road, and as soon as the car got on the main road, he stepped on the accelerator.The car drove away all of a sudden, at a very high speed. When the police ran out, Terry's car had already disappeared.Terry almos
The sunlight at twelve o'clock was even more intense. Eamon was scolded by Jessica, and although he had the intention to run away, he lacked the courage to do so. Who knew when Jessica would come out of the house.He was tied to a tree, although most of the sunlight was blocked by the leaves, it was still very hot at noon, and Eamon was suffering as his body still hurt from the several places Jessica had just hit him.Jessica and Terry were leisurely eating lunch inside the house, eating to their heart's content. It was only after they had finished eating that Jessica took out her phone and called the police.The police took more than twenty minutes to arrive, and when Eamon heard the sound of the police siren, he instinctively trembled.Terry glanced at him and went out to meet the police, “Hello, I am the husband of the person who made the report."Terry made a simple self-introduction, “My wife got scared by a thief, which caused her to have a miscarriage. She is currently resting
Eamon realized it and instinctively wanted to run, but Jessica also reacted quickly, reaching out and smashing the coconut she had just taken a few sips of onto him.Terry, who was standing by, immediately dropped what he was holding and ran up to grab the tattered oil-paper umbrella by the door. He forcefully smashed it onto Eamon's ankle, causing him to scream in pain, "Ah!"Eamon fell directly from the wall, and he was about to resist as soon as he got up, but unfortunately Terry had a very solid oil-paper umbrella in his hand, and he was hit again as soon as he got up.After being hit more than ten times, Eamon couldn't bear it and quickly begged for mercy, saying, "Please stop hitting me! I was wrong!"Terry turned around and glanced at Jessica, saying, "Bring the rope."Jessica turned and entered the small room next to her, pulling out the hemp rope from under the bed.Eamon, who fell to the ground, attempted to escape. Terry, seeing that he was being dishonest, fiercely struck
Denzel arrived at the hospital and remained unconscious. That night, he was transferred to the ICU.It had been several days since Jessica heard the news when she and Terry arrived in Tonopah.It was almost June, and as soon as Jessica got off the plane, she felt a wave of heat.Plus, back in January, Eamon came over causing trouble, and Jessica was a bit concerned about the condition of the yard.The temperature today was a bit high, and Terry was worried that Jessica couldn't handle it, so he didn't go over there immediately after coming out of the airport.The two of them stayed in the city for the whole night and only took the car over early the next morning.There weren't many households in the village to begin with, and it seems that the big yellow dog that used to chase after Jessica is now gone.Jessica and Terry asked the neighbor next door and found out that there was an old man in the village who fell while picking vegetables in the vegetable field more than three months ag
Denzel had been talking to Lucas all along, and in the few short seconds before the elevator arrived, there were only Denzel's childish voice and Lucas's occasional "uh-huh".The elevator came quite fast, and Jessica and Terry were the first to enter.There were no other people inside the elevator, only the five of them.Jessica and Terry were in the right corner, while their family of three was in the left corner.Terry held Jessica's hand, lowered his head to look at her, and the two exchanged a glance, only to smile slightly and never speak.After about five or six seconds, the elevator finally reached the first floor.Jessica and Terry didn't move, watching as Lucas and the other two exited the elevator. Only then did Terry say, "Let's go."Jessica glanced at him, and both of them instinctively slowed down their pace. The family of three in front of them gradually moved further away, until they were about ten meters apart. It was only then that Jessica spoke, "Are he and Susie pla
