  "Jessica, get up now. The shards are all over you." After Justin left, Rebecca, Lucas' mother, hurried over, trying to help Jessica up.

  "Mom, wait." Lucas reached out to stop Rebecca. He then looked down at Jessica and asked, "Did you hear what Grandpa just said? Do you know what you have done wrong now?"

  "Lucas, I think I've made it very clear. I didn't push Trissy. I did nothing wrong."

  Although Jessica was trembling with cold, she looked at Lucas firmly. She wouldn't give in.

  "Then from today you don't live in Thomas house, people like you don't deserve to be in the same house as us!" Lucas nodded at the butler, beckoning him to come over and take Jessica away.

  Rebecca shook her head in disagreement and said to Lucas, "Jessica is your wife. How can you treat her like that?"

  "Such a vicious woman can't be my wife," Lucas replied coldly.

  Jessica suddenly felt a shooting pain in her heart. Originally, she planned to show Lucas the evidence so that Lucas would know he had blamed her wrongly. But now, she decided not to bother.

  With that, Lucas left without looking back.

  As Lucas walked away, Jessica felt that her feelings for Lucas were perishing as well.

  The butler glanced at Rebecca. Lucas was second only to Justin in the Thomas family, so the butler did not dare to disobey Lucas. The butler bowed slightly to Jessica, who was sitting on the ground, and said, "Jessica, please do not make things difficult for me."

  "Go tell Lucas that I'm not going anywhere. I'm going back to my room to take a shower and change my clothes." Jessica said as she stood up. She shook off the shards on her pants and calmly walked upstairs, leaving Rebecca and the butler in surprise.

  When Jessica got back to her room, she checked her wounds first, and luckily she only scraped a little skin on her arms and legs.

  She gave herself medicine and changed into clean clothes, then she packed her belongings one by one into her suitcase.

  After all this was done, Jessica sat at the dressing table to comb her hair, when Lucas suddenly stormed in.

  Before Jessica could say anything, Lucas pulled her wrist, almost making her fall from her chair.

  "Lucas, are you out of your mind?"

  "I'm not, but you are. You hurt Trissy, and you don't think you've done anything wrong." With indifference in his eyes, Lucas said fiercely, "Jessica, the first thing Trissy did when she woke up was ask us not to blame you, saying that it was her own actions that made you misunderstand, and you continue to feel no guilt about hurting her!"

  "That's enough!" Jessica felt that Lucas almost broke her wrist. She struggled and shouted, "She rolled down the stairs by herself, I didn't touch her at all!"

  Lucas froze at her words, and Jessica took this chance to get rid of Lucas' grip.

  Jessica stumbled to her feet, looked at the guy she used to love, and said calmly, "I know you don't believe me, so let's get a divorce, Lucas."

  Lucas thought that his anger would make Jessica yield. However, not only did Jessica not confess, but she even asked for a divorce.

  With that, Jessica opened the door and left. She moved slowly because she felt sore all over her body.

  But even so, she still did not look back at Lucas.

  "Jessica! Where are you going?" Lucas' sister, Olivia saw Jessica heading out with her suitcase and she asked loudly, "You're not stealing from the house and trying to go out and sell it, are you?"

  "Olivia, what are you talking about?" Rebecca frowned and nudged Olivia.

  "I don't care even 1 bulk of Thomas'." Jessica retorted in a rare moment, and Olivia immediately got angry and tried to argue with her, but Jessica had already turned around and left.

  Jessica took her suitcase and left the Thomas villa. Standing outside the gate, Jessica called her friend Hannah.

  Shortly, Hannah drove over.

  "Why are you standing here alone? Did Lucas drive you out? That bastard!" Hannah asked as she quickly got out of the car and ran to Jessica.

  "I decided to leave. Hannah, I want a divorce." Looking at Hannah, Jessica said.

  "Are you sure?" Gazing at Jessica, Hannah tried to figure out how determined Jessica was. As Jessica's friend, Hannah knew how much Jessica loved Lucas.

  Jessica nodded hard, and Hannah breathed a sigh of relief. "Darling, finally! Lucas is not worthy of you at all. Let's get out of here. Don't be sad. Let's find a bar and have some fun so that you can get over that dickhead."

     When Jessica woke up, it was already the next morning. She had a French feast with Hannah yesterday evening, and then had some drinks and danced the whole night. They got home early in the morning.  Jessica felt as if she had been crushed by a car after a hangover. She felt weak and sore.  Hanna walked into Jessica's room with a glass of milk and handed it to her. "The news on the Internet spreads fast."  "Really? Where is my phone?" Jessica took a sip of milk and took over her phone, handed over by Hannah. Jessica logged in to Twitter and started swiping.  The top of the trending topics was about Jessica pushing Trissy downstairs at Justin's annoucement banquet. Jessica swiped her phone and read the comments casually. Almost all were scolding Jessica for being vicious. And some people exposed Jessica's ordinary background, saying Jessica was not worthy of a rich person like Lucas. Some even assumed that Jessica might have played some tricks to marry into such a wealthy family.

      Jessica suddenly cried, making Hannah, who was beside her, feel sad. They had been friends since they were little.  For so many years, Jessica had always been a smart and noble young princess. Hannah had never seen Jessica being ill—treated like now.  It was all Lucas Thomas' fault!  A few minutes later, Jessica gradually calmed down. She took the tissue and wiped her tears. She took out a mirror to fix her makeup. Jessica quickly adjusted her mood and turned to look at Hannah. She asked, "Hannah, I heard that your cousin knows reporters from the Los Angeles Times? Is he interested in an exclusive report?"  "No problem, I will call my cousin Eden right now." Hannah froze for a moment and then figured out what Jessica planned to do. Hannah then took out her phone.  Jessica nodded and looked out through the window.  After three years, Jessica finally accepted the fact that she could not replace Trissy in Lucas' heart. She lost.  However, Jessica would not let the Thomas family

      When Jessica returned to Hannah's place, Hannah had already cleaned up the house. Hannah was putting the fried steak onto a plate, and the red wine was on the table as well.  "Welcome back!" Hannah looked at Jessica excitedly. "Let's have a lavish meal today and hang out tonight."  Jessica sat down in front of the table and smiled at Hannah. "No, I'm leaving LA tonight."  Three years ago, for the sake of Lucas, Jessica had left New York, where her parents lived.  Now that Lucas and Jessica were done, she didn't want to stay in LA anymore.  However, before leaving, she had to send the divorce gift she had prepared, so she said to Hannah, "You can get someone to send out the audios I sent you."  Hannah said excitedly, "No problem, I've been waiting for you to say that. Wait for me, I'll make a call now. Let's go back to New York together tonight!"  "Aren't you having fun here with Mona?" Jessica asked, surprised to hear her say that.  "I haven't been back to New York in years,

      Lucas stared at his phone. His face turned grim when he saw who was calling him. Lucas paused a bit before he pressed the answer button and said, "Grandpa."  "Did Jessica post that video online? Where is she now? Tell her to delete the video and take her home!" Justin's deep voice was filled with anger.  "I see, Grandpa." Lucas hung up the phone and dialed Jessica's number. A cold system message came from the phone. "Please leave your message after the beep."  Thomas Group's stock price had been falling ever since the scandal of Trissy and Thomas family was posted online. Justin's blood pressure rose out of anger, but Lucas could not reach Jessica at all. Lucas could only go home by himself to face Justin's fury.  "Where's Jessica Thomas?" Justin asked loudly when he saw Lucas coming alone.  "Grandpa, I divorced Jessica already, so she's not Jessica Thomas anymore," Lucas said with a frown.  "I don't care if you've divorced or not. The company's stock price is dropping rapidly

      Three months later, in Sheraton Los Angeles San Gabriel Hotel.  Jessica and her secretary Wendy had just taken their seats when they heard someone call out behind them, "Mr. Thomas."  There were not many Mr. Thomases who were qualified to attend this business banquet in Los Angeles. Jessica subconsciously looked back.  As expected, the person who came was Jessica's ex—husband, Lucas Thomas.  What an unsurprising acquaintance!  Wendy, sitting next to Jessica, stood up and greeted Lucas politely, "Mr. Thomas, this is Jessica Hall, general manager of the Hall Group."  "Mr. Thomas, I've long been looking forward to meeting you." Jessica smiled and extended her hand toward Lucas.  Lucas fixed his eyes on Jessica. She seemed to have become someone else. She looked vibrant. Her wavy chestnut hair, which used to be blond, was worn down on her shoulders.  With a faint smile and a pleasant voice, Jessica looked polite and decent. She looked at Lucas as if she didn't know him at all.

      This is the first time that Olivia suffered a loss. It was she who bullied Jessica all the time.  Today Jessica actually slapped, so she ran to Justin as soon as she returned to the Thomas family's villa to complain.  But Olivia was slapped by Jessica this time. So, as soon as Olivia returned to Thomas villa, she ran to Justin and complained.  When Justin heard that Jessica had come back to LA, he was filled with fury again.  Justin immediately called Lucas and asked him to bring Jessica over the next day so that she could kneel and apologize.  "Grandpa, we are divorced." Lucas said calmly.  "So what? She released the video. If we call the police, she will be thrown into prison!" Justin coughed as he spoke.  "The police won't arrest her, because what she posted was exactly what had happened." Lucas was a little impatient.  Justin froze for a moment. When Justin came to his senses, Lucas had already hung up.  Lucas threw his phone on the sofa and lit a cigar.  Three months

     "Jessica, do you think we should have a concert? We didn't have enough fun yesterday!" Hannah called Jessica in the morning and told her the big news.  "The whole upper—class social circle is going to be shocked when you do that. We'd better stay low—key," Jessica said smilingly, and then walked into the bathroom to wash up.  "I am the queen! Why should I stay low—key!" Hannah snorted and said, "I'll leave you be. Time for breakfast now."  Jessica hung up the phone. She was somewhat distracted when she looked into the mirror.  Jessica recalled how she and Lucas got married. Their first night together was an accident. After that, Lucas offered to marry Jessica. Jessica knew that Lucas felt sorry and his offer only served as a remedy.  After that, Jessica tried to tell Lucas about her family background more than once, but Lucas always said he didn't care. He just wanted to get back to work.  Later, Jessica accidentally heard Olivia complain to Rebecca about how low—born Jessica w

      Jessica attended the banquet, mainly hoping to get familiar with the upper—class society of Los Angeles. After all, she was now the general manager of the Hall Group rather than Lucas' wife.  Unlike the ladies, the businessmen were more concerned about whether Jessica had a say in their cooperation with the Hall Group.  For that reason, a lot of people went to greet Jessica. Too many business chats made Jessica tired.  Thus, Jessica found an excuse to end the conversation with a man and made her way to the dining area.  Jessica put down her red wine and took a glass of juice. When she looked up, she saw Olivia and her girl friends storming over.  "Jessica, you are far from qualified to be here. Did you manage to come in by hooking up with a playboy?"  Looking at Olivia, Jessica smiled. "If you don't know what's the right thing to say, you should just go back to school. Learn harder this time so that you won't disgrace your family's fame again."  "How dare you insult me! Just

    Hannah fell silent for a moment, looking at Paige in front of her, and took a deep breath. "So, what did you come to see me for today?"Paige's emotions had stabilized, and so much time had passed since everything happened that she had no choice but to accept it, even if she didn't want to."I wanted to come and say sorry to you. Three years ago, I suddenly brought people to find you and caused you a lot of harm.""It has already passed, you don't need to care about it anymore."Paige looked at Hannah and hesitated for a moment, "You also had the right to know about this matter.""Thank you."Hannah's mood was completely disrupted like this, "If there's nothing else, I'll have my assistant send you."She had not fully processed this matter yet, and when facing Paige, she did not know what she should say.This time, Paige did not insist on staying any longer, “Today, I bothered you."She stood up and bowed deeply to

    Foster had no shame, while Hannah dared not lose her own face.His words did hit the nail on the head, and Hannah dared not move. She even kept her head down, afraid that someone might take a video and upload it online, which could lead to Jessica, Mona, and others recognizing her.Foster's car was parked in a nearby parking lot. He carried her over a small path and they arrived at the car after a few steps.Hannah struggled for a moment, but couldn't break free, and could only watch as he put her into the car.Hannah had been taking the stomach-aiding and digestion-promoting pills for several minutes when she started to hiccup. As she was fastening her seatbelt, she hiccuped twice. Coincidentally, Foster walked in from the side and watched her. Although he didn't say anything, Hannah could see the amusement in his dark eyes.Her face stiffened for a moment, and she glared at him, saying, "What are you laughing at? Haven't you seen someone hiccup before?"Making a mountain out of a mo

    Foster glanced at her and didn't have any objections, “I'll listen to you."Hannah stopped talking and walked here for nearly twenty minutes, feeling tired and hungry.The thin slices of pork belly were quickly grilled to perfection. Hannah has always loved eating grilled meat. She is the kind of person who would rather gain weight herself than miss out on enjoying a good meal of meat.She didn't speak, a piece of grilled meat wrapped in lettuce, topped with sauce, and then she stuffed it into her mouth.Foster looked at her as she put the meat into her mouth. Her lips were like a squirrel hiding a pine nut inside its mouth, and her cheeks were puffed up, making anyone who looked at her feel an increase in appetite.Foster rarely ate these, even during the difficult years, he didn't really touch them. When he was hungry, he would just eat a piece of bread and drink a large bottle of water.He was not like Hannah, who always seemed to have the greatest enthusiasm for food.On the contr

    Foster didn't move, just watched her.The two of them stood facing each other, neither willing to take a step back.It was the rush hour at this time. Hannah was standing inside the car, while Foster was standing outside, attracting the attention of many passersby.Joe arrived and saw Hannah standing inside the car, confronting Foster with a cold expression on her face.He hesitated for a moment before walking over and said, "Mr. Carroway?"Foster glanced at him and handed his phone to Hannah, saying, "I'll take you back, and Joe will handle the rest for you."Hannah took back her phone, "No need."She looked at the time and it had already been seven or eight minutes. Shouldn't the people from the 4S store have arrived by now?Hannah got off the car and was about to make another phone call to the person over there when she saw a trailer driving towards her."Miss Howell, I'm sorry, there was traffic on the way, so I arrived late."Hannah didn't say anything, she just told them to quic

    No one knew what was going on between Hannah and Foster. Rowan and Abigail returned empty-handed from Hannah's villa and had no choice but to reluctantly visit Foster in Kangsel.However, the two of them went to Kangsel for several days in a row but didn't see Foster.

    Hannah was also wondering when Rowan had become so humble, to the point of coming to the company specifically to apologize to her.That night, if it hadn't been for Foster coming out and mentioning Mr. Everitt, Rowan clearly didn't even want to say sorry.Hmm, that's strange.She had just wanted to call Sophia, but to her surprise, Sophia had already come in. "Miss Howell, Rowan and Abigail said they forgot to mention something."Hannah raised an eyebrow and said, "Let them in."She said it, didn't she?Rowan and Abigail turned back again, they looked at each other, seemingly discussing who should speak.Hannah didn't want to care about it at all, she tapped the table with the pen in her hand and said, "Cut to the chase, are you two playing telepathy over there?"Rowan's face stiffened, and Abigail took the opportunity to speak, “Miss Howell, you just said, that night's incident, that night has already passed, so can you please ask the influential figure behind you to go easy on the t
