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
"It's not that I can't handle it, but if the rightful owner comes back and I continue to occupy it, that would be going too far."Terry said this very casually, and Jessica breathed a sigh of relief, "And what about the Davison Group?""Well, I became unemployed."He said, as he suddenly bent down, his peach blossom eyes shining brightly, just about ten centimeters away, Terry looked at her straightly like this, and pulled his tie. "Ms. Hall, can you provide me with a job?"He spoke while raising his hand and loosening the buttons of his shirt.The shirt, with two front buttons unbuttoned, became loose and saggy. The collar immediately spread apart, revealing the faint texture underneath.Jessica blinked her eyes and asked, "What position do you want?"Does Terry lack a job?Obviously, it was not possible.He was obviously doing it on purpose, Jessica simply went along with what he said, she was not someone who couldn't take a joke.Peach Blossom narrowed his eyes, shifted slightly, a
When Terry called her, Jessica had just finished taking a shower and hadn't had time to put on clothes yet. Upon hearing Terry's voice, Jessica quickly grabbed a towel to dry herself and hurriedly put on clothes before opening the bathroom door and going out. "What's wrong?""Your friend just called you, and I accidentally answered the call. It seems like she wasn't doing too well."Jessica heard Terry's words and didn't care about being shy anymore. She took her phone and found that Hannah had sent her two messages. One was a location sharing, and the other one was "help me".Jessica's face changed. "Hannah might be in trouble, I have to go out for a while."Terry shook her hand and said, "Don't worry, you go put on your clothes first, send me your location, and I'll come downstairs and bring the car up from the garage. You can meet me directly on the ground floor."Jessica was also calm. Hannah may have been playing around, but she was always sensible. It was probably just a tricky
"In the final round, Mr. Sexton, to be fair, why don't we draw first?""Ms. Hall, rest assured, I still have this bit of courtesy. Please go ahead, Ms. Hall.""Well, then I won't be polite."Jessica said, reaching out and drawing a card directly. "Club K, it seems like I'm really lucky. Mr. Sexton, it's your turn."Garrett looked at Jessica's plum blossom K, but he hesitated to draw a card.Jessica didn't rush either, she just waited like that.After about two minutes, Garrett suddenly challenged, "Ms. Hall, you are not fair. You tampered with this deck of cards."Jessica sneered, "What, Mr. Sexton can play dirty tricks, but I can't? I am more skilled than you, Mr. Sexton, you are not as good as others, so now you want to shirk responsibility?"Garrett saw that the situation was exposed, and his face looked very unpleasant. However, Jessica was the heiress of the Hall Group, so he couldn't offend her too much.Finally, Garrett gritted his teeth and said, "Ms. Hall is indeed an interes
The person in Terry's arms suddenly went out, leaving Terry empty-handed. He looked up at Jessica walking ahead, not in a hurry, and followed her leisurely, saying, "Why are you walking so fast? I won't eat you."Jessica heard what he said and tripped herself.Terry hurriedly stepped forward and supported her, saying, "Be careful."Jessica glared at him and said, "Why are you acting like a peacock with its feathers spread?""Did it attract any beautiful peahens?"He was shameless, and he was even willing to be a beast, following Jessica's words.Jessica was laughed at by him, she stood firmly and walked up to open the door, put down her bag, and bent down to change her shoes.Terry gently closed the door and bent down to fetch her slippers from the shoe cabinet, his movements natural and smooth as if he had done it many times before.Jessica paused slightly as she pulled up the zipper on her boots, and she glanced at Terry, feeling warmth filling her heart.After all the fuss, it was
Jessica had a morning meeting today, and Terry was "kicked out" by the Davison Group. It has been a leisurely period of time.After finishing breakfast, Terry took the car keys and drove Jessica to work.Jessica glanced at him, just smiled and didn't refuse.The morning traffic was congested, and the cars were stuck in the CBD area.The car stopped, and Terry turned his head to look at her. "Shall we have lunch together at noon?"Jessica shook her head and said, "There was a lunch gathering at noon.""Where were you?"Upon hearing his words, Jessica couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and said, "What, is Mr. Davison coming to inspect?"Peach Blossom looked at her, with a smile in her eyes, and said, "Yes, after finally winning back a girlfriend, of course I have to keep a close eye on her."He was very straightforward, even Jessica couldn't argue with him. She pursed her lips and mentioned the name of the hotel."Baby was so well-behaved."He reached out and touched her head. Jessica w
The lunch party this afternoon went smoothly. However, Jessica had two glasses of white wine, but the other party didn't make things difficult for her, so she couldn't refuse the two glasses of white wine.Her alcohol tolerance is decent. Although the two glasses of white wine were not strong, they only added up to about three or four ounces.Jessica wasn't drunk to the point of being intoxicated, but she was feeling a bit tipsy, which made her livelier and her mind wander a lot.When Jessica saw Terry, she paused for a moment and quickly remembered the words he had said in the morning.Wendy was confused, but she was happy to see it happen. Jessica didn't have a meeting in the afternoon, and it was fine for her not to return to the company as she had been drinking during lunch. Therefore, she silently went back to the company with the driver, leaving Jessica "abandoned" at the hotel."Did you drink alcohol?"Terry walked over and naturally took her handbag, knowing that she was sensi
Jessica looked up, with a hint of a smile in her eyes, and said, "You were my boyfriend, what's wrong with being jealous?"She spoke and suddenly burst into laughter, tiptoed, and lifted the hand that was originally wrapped around Terry's waist, hooking it under his neck.Terry remained silent, showing no expression on his face, but his heart was already in turmoil.Jessica touched the back of his neck, her fingers pressing unconsciously, smiling and looking at him. Seeing that he still didn't speak, she raised an eyebrow, and the fingers pressing on the back of his neck turned into a palm. With a slight force, Terry's head was pressed closer by her.She hummed and said, "You just look at me like this, without even giving me a kiss?"This remark was undoubtedly a penetrating arrow that shot directly at Terry, breaking his defense and instantly igniting him.He had long wanted to kiss her, whether it was before or after meeting Lucas, on the way back he wanted to press her into his arm
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
