"Sir, Miss, do you have an appointment?"
As soon as I entered the hotel, someone approached and asked.
Lucas coldly responded, "No."
"Sir, please come this way. You need to handle something first -"
However, Lucas had no intention of listening to the other person and walked straight into the hotel.
Both of them had no expression on their faces. Jessica was still wrapped in a blanket. The atmosphere between them was like a ticking time bomb, causing onlookers to glance and immediately avert their gaze.
Lucas took Jessica directly to the elevator, but the elevator required a key card to go up.
Lucas glanced at Jessica and said, "Wait for me a moment."
Jessica didn't speak, but she didn't leave either.
Since she had been dragged here by Lucas, she was curious to see what tricks Lucas wanted to play.
Lucas glanced at her for two seconds and, seeing that she remained motionless, also understood Jessica's intention.
Upon hearing her words, Terry's heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively held on tighter. "I won't let go, don't listen to her nonsense, darling!"Jessica raised her hand and touched Terry's face, smiling, "I don't believe her, I want to get something."Terry, however, was still frightened, "What do you want? I'll help you get it."Jessica, helpless, had to say, "Then help me fill a basin with cold water."Terry raised an eyebrow, not understanding what Jessica was going to do. Heidy also didn't understand. "Ms. Hall, did you see the red wine on the floor? It's all spilled! You've been through this before, right? Terry can be really ruthless, you know?"Not only Jessica couldn't stand hearing this, but Lucas couldn't stand it either. "You can say something else!"Heidy heard Lucas' words and turned her head to give him a glance. Her eyes shifted and she said, "But I think Ms. Hall is also a player. On the surface, she acts like she's head
Jessica collected her thoughts and went into the kitchen to make a bowl of noodles.After she finished cooking the noodles, Terry hadn't finished showering yet. Jessica took a bowl and put the noodles in it, covering it on the side. She waited for Terry to finish showering before pouring the soup in, so that the noodles wouldn't get mushy.Jessica finished these before turning around and walking out of the kitchen. Just as she walked out, she sneezed.Lucas pulled her like a madman, and she left without time to put on her coat. As a result, now that she has returned, she seems a bit like she might catch a cold.New Year is just one week away, and Jessica has a lot of things on her plate. She doesn't want to catch a cold at this time.Wendy put a lot of vitamin C tablets and effervescent tablets in her spare medicine box. She drank some vitamin C before catching a cold to boost her immunity."What was the baby drinking?"Jessica had ju
That evening, some people were in high spirits, some people were disappointed in love, and some people were unhappy in every aspect.Heidy tonight can be described as unprecedentedly disheveled and miserable, trying every trick in the book but failing to seduce Terry, not to mention the expectation of sowing discord and causing a fight between Jessica and Terry.However, Jessica didn't believe a word she said. She trusted Terry, believing that whatever Jessica said was just a joke.Before leaving, Jessica poured cold water on herself.On such a day, it was still snowing outside. Even though the heating was on in the room, she had already been tied to the sofa by Terry for over two hours. She was only wrapped in a bath towel, and she had already felt cold before Jessica and the others came in.Jessica poured a pot of cold water down, and Heidy was immediately shivering from the cold. She had hoped that Lucas would lend a hand, but not only did he re
The cosmetics under the Coffey Group suddenly had an incident. Within just three hours of the consumer posts being sent out, they received a significant number of responses and there were also cases of allergic reactions.Cosmetic allergies are actually quite normal, as long as the added ingredients were qualified.The coincidence lies in the fact that the particular sunscreen that had an accident was advertised as being made from pure natural materials and suitable for pregnant women.Except for those who are naturally allergic to the ingredients, no one else experienced any allergic reactions.But this time, the three pregnant women involved in the incident were not allergic to the raw materials, but developed an allergic reaction after using the product. They broke out in a rash all over their bodies, and one of the pregnant women had a severe condition and had to be put on a ventilator for oxygen.But because they were all pregnant, there were
With Jessica's words, Terry gained momentum, and the buzz around the Coffey Group subsided after a few days.Heidy soon came to know that the incident involving the Coffey Group was related to Terry. She had never been insulted by a man like this before, and Terry was the first one!Heidy was originally hesitant, as Sharp Technology was a foreign company and she didn't want to interfere.Terry actually tampered with the Coffey Group, and she didn't hold back either.LA Sharp Technology had an incident before the new year, where the data of the upcoming products scheduled to be released in March was suddenly leaked.Terry had just taken over LA Sharp Technology for less than half a month when such a big incident of product data leakage occurred. As a regional manager, he was obviously going to be the scapegoat when headquarters held him accountable.After Jessica found out about this, she immediately asked Wendy to investigate what happened.
Lucas remained silent, simply looking up at Jessica on the stage, his facial expression ambiguous and unclear.In just a year and a half, why did she fall in love with Terry?He couldn't understand and he didn't want to think about it anymore.Hari was right, Terry was a despicable person.She liked being mean, so he decided to be mean too.Jessica knew that Terry had gone to answer the phone while she was on stage, so after she came down from the stage, she also didn't immediately go to find Terry.However, someone approached her at that moment.Jessica's smile faded when she saw Lucas.Given the current situation, she still maintained a polite smile and said, "Mr. Thomas.""Let's talk, Jessica."Jessica smiled and said, "I think I have already emphasized this question to Mr. Thomas many times. There is nothing left to discuss between us.""What if it's about Terry?"Jessica paused for a moment and
Luckily, the car arrived at the apartment building quickly. Los Angeles was getting colder and colder after January, especially at night.Jessica wore a dress today, although she had a coat on, the heater was on in the car, so she didn't feel cold inside the car, but as soon as she stepped outside, she couldn't resist the chilly wind for a few seconds.Terry came over and helped her open the car door, then he immediately bent down and lifted her up in his arms.Jessica felt a little embarrassed and pushed him away with her hand, saying, "I'll walk by myself."Terry freed one hand and pulled up his collar. "There, it's covered."Jessica was taken aback as she watched him reach out and take her high heels. She felt a warm sensation flow through her chest.Jessica stopped struggling and nestled in his arms, allowing him to lift her up and walk towards the apartment.The wind was strong at night, but Terry felt warm in his arms.Th
Late at night, a black sedan raced along the road.Twenty minutes later, the car stopped in front of Lucas' mansion. Terry parked the car, opened the door, and got out.On a cold night, he seemed completely unaware, only feeling a burning sensation all over his body.The villa's third floor was lit up, indicating that Lucas was obviously not asleep.Terry directly jumped over the gate and entered the villa. The villa alarm blared "woo woo woo", startling the wild cat hiding in the bushes, causing it to jump up suddenly.Lucas listened to the alarm sound, his face darkened, and he walked to the balcony.Just as he lowered his head, he saw Terry standing inside his own balcony.Lucas frowned and turned around, then went downstairs.Terry didn't stand at the entrance door for long when the door was opened. Lucas, who was inside the door, looked at him with a displeased expression and asked, "What are you here for?"Terry ho
Jerry heard Terry's words and instinctively looked up at him.When Jerry's gaze met those peach blossom eyes, his heart felt a bit uncomfortable. "Mr. Davison, Ms. Hall is so smart, she must be able to handle it.""Is that so?"Terry lowered his head and raised his hand to cover the watch on his left hand.This is a customized couple watch made by Jessica, and there are only two of them in the world, making them unique.But as he watched the time pass by minute by minute on the watch, there was no joy in his heart. He had not seen her or heard her voice for twenty-five consecutive hours.This feeling was more painful than when he first found out that she was going to marry Lucas.He was really scared.Jerry had followed Terry for so many years and had never seen Terry like this before. Now, looking at him, Jerry also felt uneasy inside.But now Jessica has not been found yet, everything is still unknown. If they try a li
Running during the day is much better than running at night, at least you can see the road clearly.But inside this mountain, everywhere was trees and waist-high weeds, there was simply no path for Jessica to run.Jessica didn't have much strength left; she only knew that she couldn't be caught up.But she could still hear the woman's screaming voice, knowing without a doubt that she hadn't run far.The woman was probably going to call the man. It was all grass everywhere, where did she run to, they would find her if they were a bit smarter.Jessica stopped and leaned against a tree, catching her breath while analyzing the terrain.Looking around, she couldn't see any houses, so she couldn't ask for help.Jessica hesitated whether to run towards the foot of the mountain or up the mountain.She didn't have much time to hesitate anymore, as the man's angry roar and the woman's curses behind her were reminding her that they were a
The driver brother talked a lot. Jessica didn't know whether to believe his nonsense or not, but she was already exhausted.Fortunately, they chatted for more than ten minutes, and the taxi driver also noticed that Jessica was very tired. He handed her a bottle of mineral water and told her to take a nap. "I just finished delivering the goods and need to go home to pick up new ones. Don't mind, take a rest for a while. We will arrive at my house in ten minutes."Jessica took the mineral water and unscrewed it, then drank more than half of it directly.The elder brother driver stopped talking, and she also remained silent, turning her head to look out of the car window. She almost fell asleep several times, but she managed to hold on.The driver did not deceive him, his house was indeed just nearby. The small truck drove into a village, and Jessica got out of the car with him."Have some breakfast first. The police station is five kilometers ahead.
Neither of the two men expected that Jessica would suddenly escape, after all, her hands and feet were tied with ropes.The two of them were chatting just now. Although they occasionally glanced at Jessica, they found that when Jessica disappeared, she had already run seven or eight meters away.Two men were in the car and they really thought Jessica had diarrhea. They felt a bit disgusted, so they closed the car door. However, they realized that she had run away when they opened the door, causing a delay of one or two seconds. By the time the two men got out of the car, Jessica had already run up the hill.Late at night, in the quietness, the outskirts of the area within ten miles seemed deserted as if there were no households around. Two men's angry shouts were closely chasing from behind.Jessica was wearing high heels on her feet, and she was not running comfortably. However, the mountain road was overgrown with weeds, and if she took off her shoes, s
Terry directly handed the money to him and led the people over to the other side of District 3.Lucas noticed some movement over here and came over with someone. "What did you find?"Terry glanced at him and said, "Just now, a night shift employee said that around midnight, two vans drove over here."Late at night, two vans arrived here. Besides transferring Jessica and Olivia, what else could they do?Obviously, both Terry and Lucas were a step late. By the time they arrived here, it was already a little past twelve forty.Terry looked at the containers in front of him for a while, and suddenly remembered something. "When I came over, I saw two vans turning from Sea Road to the other side of Purple Road."At the end of Sea Road is the harbor, and the two vans that turned out from the Sea Road entrance are very likely the two vans that the night shift worker mentioned.Terry was the first one to arrive here. It was over 800 meters fro
Olivia cried all day, slept soundly, and suddenly got kicked, waking up. She forgot about being kidnapped and got angry when she woke up. She yelled at Jessica, "What are you doing? Why did you kick me?""Someone came, don't speak."Olivia heard the noise outside and also realized it. She moved in a panic next to Jessica and said, "Yes, I'm sorry, I just woke up."Jessica didn't say anything; she had a very bad feeling.Soon, the container was opened again.This time, among the visitors, Luna was not present, only four men were there.They held flashlights and shone them into the container. They took a look and then immediately looked down at their phones.Jessica's heart sank in an instant, and she whispered to Olivia, "They are going to move us to another place later. Be careful not to give anything away. Make sure they don't find out that the ropes on our hands and feet are not properly tied."Olivia's face turned pale as so
"Lucas, long time no see. I heard that Justin passed away, what a pity. I didn't have the chance to attend the funeral, after all, it was extremely difficult for me to escape from Justin's clutches. Your sister and Jessica are both in my hands, don't worry, they are doing well now and I'm in a good mood. However, you don't have much time left to relax. You should think carefully about what is more important to you, the person you love or your own sister."The signature is Luna.After reading the message, Lucas' face immediately darkened. "Vincent, look up Luna for me!"Terry glanced at him, but did not ask Jerry to check on Luna.Luna dared to send the message to Lucas' phone, proving that she might not be in LA anymore.Jessica and Olivia must have been in LA, after all, Luna still had to let Lucas choose.Now there is finally news about Jessica, although it is not good news, it is still better than knowing nothing at all.Terry look
It was ten o'clock at night, and it had been eight hours and forty minutes since Jessica went missing. However, Terry had no clue at all.Afternoon, Jessica went to the bathroom. Wendy waited by the car for twenty minutes, but when she saw that Jessica hadn't come out yet, she called her on the phone. However, the line was busy on the other end.Wendy realized that something might have gone wrong. She went to the restroom to find Jessica while calling Terry. After contacting Terry, she had already reached out to the hotel manager and entered the surveillance room.The surveillance footage showed that Jessica entered the first-floor restroom at 13.11 in the afternoon and remained inside until 13.30. However, the footage did not show anyone coming out of the restroom during that time. It was as if Jessica had disappeared into thin air inside the restroom.According to the surveillance footage, it was not until 1.40 pm that a hotel guest checked out and ente
Jessica was also very shocked after hearing Luna's words.She guessed that Justin would target Luna and her two sisters, but she didn't expect him to do such a malicious thing.Although it is true that Luna and Trissy had the wrong idea of wanting to marry into a wealthy family and live a life of ease, it does not justify intentionally luring them and causing one of them to die and the other to be injured.Luna looked at Olivia, almost gritting her teeth. "Rest assured, considering how you did treat me well before, I won't harm you for now. But whether you can survive or not, that depends on your brother!"When Luna said these words, her eyes were filled with resentment, which frightened Olivia and made her tremble all over.Luna looked at it and found it boring, so she directly pushed Olivia away.Olivia fell down, landing heavily and making a loud "thud" sound.However, no matter how loud the sound was, on such a night, in such an e
