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
Terry stood up and took a deep look at Jessica on the bed before turning around and leaving the room.Jessica watched his back as he left the room, and she couldn't help but smile. She turned to the side and closed her eyes.Last night, I had a nightmare. Jessica didn't sleep well and had some white wine at noon. Now she is lying in bed, feeling increasingly sleepy.Just as she was in a daze, the bed beside her suddenly sank. Jessica opened her eyes and was about to turn around when the person behind her had already reached out and held her down.Jessica laughed at him in exasperation, "Terry!""I was not a gentleman."He was never a gentleman, but he just couldn't bear to see her even slightly aggrieved in front of him.Terry pulled Jessica into his arms and said, "I was tired too."Jessica's face suddenly flushed when she heard him say "Jessica".He used to call her baby, but now he calls her Jessica.Jessica was really impressed by Terry's mouth."If you were tired, you should have
Jessica thought for a moment, just as she was about to speak, Terry had already taken the lead. "I'll take you there, give me a call when you're done, and I'll come pick you up."He was so considerate that Jessica felt a little guilty. After hesitating for a moment, she thought it wasn't a big deal and said, "Why don't you come with me?"He was recently abandoned by the Davison family and then kicked out by the Davison Group, so he must have been in a bad mood.Thinking about this, Jessica felt that it would be nice to take Terry out and publicly acknowledge their relationship, just to make him happy.However, Terry did not respond, only saying, "It's okay, I understand."When Terry said these words, his eyebrows drooped and his previously spirited expression now appeared somewhat desolate.He only said these few words and didn't speak again.Jessica's heart tightened a little. "Anyway, it will be revealed sooner or later, so it doesn't matter if it happens sooner."Upon hearing her w
Although Jessica was nervous, she had experienced these situations many times before, and with familiar faces in the room, she lowered her gaze and immediately changed the subject, saying, "Mona, why don't you introduce yourself?"She said, leading Terry to the sofa and taking a seat, away from everyone's attention.Mona wasn't as mischievous as Hannah. Upon hearing Jessica's words, she didn't mention Terry again and instead, she introduced her boyfriend to Jessica, saying, "Layton, my boyfriend."Everyone is in the same circle, Layton Jessica has also heard of it, but they are not familiar. They greeted each other, and from then on, they became acquainted.Hannah sat on the armrest of the sofa, leaning against the backrest, and took a sip of red wine, then asked with a smile, "We all know what's going on between Jessica and Mr. Davison, but what about you and Layton, Mona? We still don't know!"Hannah made a sarcastic remark that targeted two people. Jessica turned her head and gave
Seeing someone go up on stage to present flowers, Hari immediately laughed, "This person has such thick skin. Last time, someone went up to give flowers to Jessica, and she came down the same way she went up. She really acts like she has never seen flowers before!"As soon as Hari finished speaking, someone next to him screamed, "Ah! Ah! Ah! She accepted it! She accepted it! The girl took the flowers! Oh my god, she even hugged that man! Sob, sob, sob, if only I had brought a bouquet tonight too!"Hari, who had just taken a sip of juice, was stunned. As he looked up, he indeed saw Jessica on stage, hugging a man who was holding flowers.He seemed to hear the sound of his own face being slapped.Hari subconsciously looked at Lucas beside him, and by now Lucas' expression could no longer be described as ugly. Hari still had some conscience after all. "Lucas, don't feel too bad. After all, this is on stage. Jessica may have considered the occasion. She doesn't know that guy and it doesn'
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
Marriage was impossible, and Hannah never thought about getting married.Hannah directly rejected Joseph's proposal, and as for Kendall, there was no need to even think about it.The Howell family had a good relationship with the Hawthorne family, even disregarding the Hawthorne family's troubles. Mrs. Howell had a good relationship with Kendall's mom.If the two of them got together, they would never be able to separate, even in death.Hannah could still see these problems very clearly.Sometimes she was just slow, she wasn't really stupid.Perhaps afraid that she would really do something foolish, Mona called her in the evening and analyzed the pros and cons of getting married according to the agreement.After Hannah repeatedly assured herself that she had not reached such a desperate point, Mona finally hung up the phone.After being "beaten up" by Mona like that, Hannah directly blocked Kendall's phone number.The ne
Kendall suddenly wiped the smile off her face and said, "You know about my family's situation, right? My grandfather is not doing well, and if I don't get married, the Hawthorne Group will have to fall into someone else's hands."Although Hannah and Kendall didn't get along since childhood, she was indeed aware of the things happening in his family.After his father had an affair, there was an illegitimate child born who was only a few years younger than Kendall. Later, his mother divorced his father, and the illegitimate child came back rightfully.At first, Grandfather Kendall was very biased towards Kendall, after all, he was the grandson of the legitimate wife.Kendall's mother took him away back then, and Kendall also rarely came home over the years because of his father.The illegitimate child used to accompany Kendall's grandfather every day, you know, the older a person gets, the more they long for a harmonious family.Kendall's gran
Hannah suddenly felt very tired, a tiredness she had never experienced before."Whether you are Dominic or Foster, our relationship had already ended from the day you left. If I were you, I would have had the decency to leave at that point, preserving some dignity for both of us."In the end, no one's face would look good.Is it necessary? Isn't it better to break up peacefully?Hannah's personality has always been carefree and bold. Foster still remembers their first meeting, when she openly expressed her liking without any hesitation.Later on, she became even more crazy, and he went from being bored to uncontrollably infatuated. She was like an everlasting fire, enveloping him, and managed to melt his icy heart.But now, she says it's over.The fire was extinguished, but he had already melted. How could he possibly let go!"I never thought about leaving you."He said he would find her, he just came back a little late.
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. Rowan was doing better, but Abigail's family couldn't wait any longer. Abigail had no choice but to secretly go and find Hannah again.This time she couldn't even see Hannah, Hannah's assistant directly said that Hannah was not in the company, and she didn't wait for Hannah at the villa either.After another four or five days had passed, Abigail finally managed to get an opportunity to meet Hannah.Hannah had just caught a cold when she was stopped by Abigail. She frowned, her face looking somewhat cold.Abigail looked at her and came out directly, asking her for help in front of so many people.Hannah was annoyed. She had been avoiding Rowan and Abigail for the past few days, and it was making her restless. She was trul
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
