Terry looked down at Jessica, who was smiling in his arms, and his eyes curved slightly. "What else do you want to hear?"
Jessica stopped laughing for a moment, looked at him, and raised an eyebrow, "So, when was the last time you got hit?"
Terry touched her long hair and said, "Four years ago."
Jessica paused for a moment and asked, "Why?"
Four years ago, Terry was already twenty-five, not a little boy anymore. Can Brice still handle him?
Terry looked down at her with a half-smile and said, "Because I insisted on going abroad, my dad got angry."
"Why were you so determined to go abroad back then?"
Jessica immediately realized as soon as she finished speaking. Four years ago, wasn't it the night when, by some twist of fate, she agreed to marry Lucas?
She pursed her lips and said, "Because of me?"
Terry has never been one to dwell on the past, so now he can naturally bring up the topic in front of Jessica, saying, "Or may
The news of Bennett losing eight billion in Las Vegas quickly spread, and there was no way to keep it from spreading. It was said that he had gone to Las Vegas the day before and was very arrogant at the gambling table, claiming that he was the young master of the Davison Group and had no shortage of money. He wouldn't play in any game with stakes lower than five million.Such bold words were spoken, and that very evening they spread throughout the circle.Bennett gambled all night long. In the first few hours, he won more and lost less. Even the dealer who dealt the cards advised him to quit while he was ahead, but he said, "I can afford to lose."In the end of the second half, out of about twenty rounds, we only won three rounds.Bennett continued to gamble heavily, with each bet larger than the previous one. In the last two rounds, the stakes even reached as high as fifty million.It was a little after four in the morning when Bennett, presumabl
As soon as this notice came out, not only Jessica was stunned, but also the others who were waiting to see Terry's joke were dumbfounded.Terry just entered Sharp Technology for a month and unexpectedly managed to oust a CEO who had been in the position for over ten years, and took over the position himself?No one would believe it if it were said!However, the name of the CEO of Sharp Technology's headquarters in the United States LA area has already been changed to Terry, as stated on the official website.The news reached Heidy, and she was dumbfounded. "Are the executives at Sharp Technology crazy?"Of course, there were many people who had the same doubts as Heidy.As soon as the news of Terry's promotion came out, Vincent dutifully passed it on to Lucas."Is he the CEO of the LA area now?"Lucas frowned and looked at Vincent.Vincent nodded, "Yes, Mr. Thomas, you heard correctly, and I didn't see wrong either. Terr
Jessica's laughter was not small, as they walked ahead, Lucas behind them could hear it loud and clear.He tightened his hand in the pocket beside him, but in the end, he didn't speak up. He stood there, watching Jessica and Terry gradually move away in front of his eyes.As Terry approached the door, he turned around and glanced at Lucas. There was a hint of coldness in the smile in his peach blossom eyes, and he deliberately hooked the corner of his eye.Provocative and proud.Vincent also noticed Terry's gaze, and he instinctively looked towards Lucas beside him, pursing his lips and wisely choosing not to speak.Soon, Jessica and Terry left the hotel.The night wind was particularly cold, and Jessica was starting to feel a bit tipsy. However, as soon as the cold wind blew, she instantly sobered up.Terry opened the car door and let her go in first. She bent down and sat inside.The heater was on inside the carriage, and as
After finishing breakfast, Terry indeed fulfilled his promise and let Jessica play again.Just that Jessica paid a heavy price for playing, the neatly made bed was in a mess, and she lay on the pillow, not wanting to move much.Terry hooked her waist and immediately lifted the person up.Jessica was forced to lie on her side, and he pulled her close into his arms. Both of them were completely naked, and she could feel the unobstructed contact of their skin against each other.The light in the room was not turned on, only the curtains were pulled open. Today's weather was gloomy, and the incoming light was not bright either. The whole room was somewhat dim, which made the atmosphere even more ambiguous.The person behind her was kissing her shoulder, their warm breath hitting her shoulder. That moist and hot kiss made Jessica feel like she was burning up.She hummed and pushed his hand in front of her, saying, "No more, Terry.""No."
As soon as Terry said this, Heidy, who had just calmed down, exploded again. "What do you mean by that, Terry? My nephew and I have been waiting for you guys here for ten minutes, and this is how you treat us?""Since that's the case, let's go then."Kaleb never expected Terry to deviate from the usual routine. "Terry, wait a minute, now that you're here, I believe you also want to resolve things properly."He said, and this time he scolded Heidy, saying, "If you keep talking nonsense, I won't care about you anymore!"Kaleb rarely got angry at Heidy. Heidy snorted, and this time she really didn't say much.Terry chuckled, "It's been a long time since someone called me Terry. Being addressed as Mr. Coffey really takes me back to the old days."Kaleb's face stiffened, "I didn't think it through, I should have called you Mr. Davison."Peach Blossom's eyes flickered slightly, "It's just a title, Mr. Coffey is fine."He spoke, glanc
Kaleb and Heidy were so angry that they left without touching their meals, leaving a table full of food.Jessica and Terry were not going to be polite to them. Since the dishes were already served, they didn't need to inconvenience themselves. They simply enjoyed their meal and left.When they were leaving, the waiter awkwardly looked at them and said, "Sir, you haven't paid yet."Terry raised an eyebrow and took out a card directly, saying, "Six zeros."Jessica glanced at the table of food behind her and said, "Tsk, it seems like the Coffey family was going downhill. Kaleb couldn't even afford to pay for a meal like this."Terry laughed and said, "Perhaps Mr. Coffey had some financial difficulties."Both of them were speaking hurtful words, while the waiter on the side listened awkwardly.Originally, whoever booked this private room would naturally be the one to pay for it.Kaleb has become a prominent figure in LA. He also ha
Lucas came in with a serious face and as soon as he entered, he saw Terry and Jessica.The two of them didn't know what they were talking about. Jessica smiled and looked at Terry with her eyes, even though there were no intimate gestures between them. However, with just this one movement, it clearly separated two worlds.He raised his hand and pressed his chest, walked towards Susie with a cold face.Seeing him, Susie seemed momentarily stunned, "Ah, you're here."Susie said, smiling and curling her lips, "I thought you weren't coming.""What exactly did you want to do?"Four years ago, she set such a big trap for him. Four years later, she dared to come back and ask him for help with the Stone family.Where did she get the courage from?Susie shrugged her shoulders and said, "I didn't have any plans, but aren't you trying to win Jessica back? You help the Stone family, and I'll help you get Jessica back, how about that?"
On that snow-white skin, the red marks left by the seatbelt were somewhat noticeable.Jessica's skin was prone to leaving marks. It wasn't that the seatbelt was really uncomfortable, but just in that moment, she was pulled tightly, with force on her shoulders, and the mark extended from her shoulder all the way down, looking somewhat alarming.Jessica lowered her head and only then did she notice the imprint of the seatbelt.She raised her hand and pulled her sweater. "It doesn't hurt, it's just obvious when you look at it.""Um."Terry responded with a sound, but did not take his hand away, "Let me have a look."He spoke as his hand had already pulled down the sweater she had just put on, leaving a diagonal mark from her shoulder to her chest, with a faint trace of red visible below.Jessica's heart skipped a beat as she was being watched, but Terry's expression was serious, so she had no choice but to put on a straight face and say,
Foster originally thought that his memory would never fully recover for the rest of his life, but a car accident in the third year after immigrating made him go through the gates of death again, but also returned all of his lost memories.Samuel was taken aback for a moment when he saw the look in her eyes and said, "Don't tell me you've lost your memory again."There were many wounds on his body. Foster tried to get up, but he found himself very heavy.Upon seeing the situation, Samuel also became afraid and quickly spoke, "Don't move, we finally got out of the ICU, don't go back again."Foster did not move anymore, he turned his head and looked outside the window of the ward.The weather today was very nice, just like the day eight years ago when he left.That day, he left carrying a family grudge, thinking that Hannah was just an accident.Eight years later, their revenge had been avenged, and Hannah had long since married.
On the day of Gemma's seventh birthday, Hannah and Kendall went to the park and set up a tent. They invited Georgia and brought a small grill. The three of them had a pleasant afternoon.Georgia also realized at that time that Gemma had actually been looking forward to going camping with them in a couple of days when she left.Today, we went camping, which fulfilled Gemma's unfinished wish.Gemma left, and the rest of the people had to continue living their lives.Kendall had originally taken a vacation for over a month, intending to return to the company only after the two of them got married and officially ended their leave.Now Gemma couldn't wait for his and Hannah's wedding, so he left. There was still nearly a month left, and Kendall asked Hannah to stay with Georgia on the South side for a while, as he was going abroad.He went abroad to meet the senior executives of the Harrington Group, who had been overseas all along. After that, h
After the cremation was completed, the staff asked Kendall to pick up the bones.Without waiting for Kendall to speak, she immediately refused.She couldn't understand this twisted "service". The loss of a loved one is already enough to make people feel desperate and miserable, and after cremation, they actually make people go and pick up the bones.Even though it was just symbolically picking one or two, it still remained incomprehensible.This was simply cruel and incomprehensible.The people in charge of the cemetery burial had already made arrangements. After leaving the funeral home, the group followed the car to the cemetery.The location of Gemma's grave was very good, and the photo on the tombstone showed her in her thirties, looking young, elegant, and beautiful.The urn was placed inside, the tomb was buried, and everything came to a complete end here.Hannah looked up at the distant sky with red eyes.The weat
Hannah really had no appetite and couldn't continue eating after a few bites.She lowered her head and drank the chicken soup that Gemma had specially instructed the aunt to stew before leaving. Tears fell directly into the soup.In fact, there wasn't much deep emotion between her and Gemma, but during this time, listening to her talk about many childhood things, now that she's gone, this sudden blow has made Hannah unable to bear it.She lowered her head, trying hard to calm her emotions, but the more she tried, the more uncomfortable she felt.Finally, she couldn't take it anymore and got up to go to the bathroom.Hannah stayed in the bathroom for a while before she came out.At that time, Georgia and Jaylen also came over.The sky had already turned completely dark when Georgia and Jaylen stepped in, guided by the moonlight."Where was your mother?"Georgia looked relatively calm and, looking at Kendall, asked a quest
Kendall quickly bought everything and brought it back.Recently, Gemma actually couldn't eat much. She relied on nutrient fluids and some soup to maintain the most basic nutrition.She was rare in the mood to eat something at the moment, although she didn't eat much, she tried a little bit of everything."This sausage isn't that delicious, why do so many children like to eat it?"Gemma was particularly puzzled. It smelled quite fragrant, but when she tasted it, it was really average.Hannah smiled and said, "Probably because parents didn't allow us to eat it often, so it tasted better.""Hannah's point does make some sense,"She said, sighing, "In fact, that's just how people are, no matter who they are or how old they are, there's always a bit of rebellion. The more others try to stop you from doing something, the more you want to do it."And she herself, wasn't she like this too?The group of people started walking bac
After Kendall returned to the South town, Gemma visibly became much happier.Kendall had everything arranged for work. After returning from this vacation, unless there was a necessary emergency, he wouldn't even answer a work phone call.Every day, Hannah and I would go to Gemma's place for meals. In the evening, when the sun was setting, the two of us would push Gemma for a walk outside the villa.Blaine did come to see Gemma once, probably after her serious illness. Gemma also let go of a lot and didn't feel the same way about Blaine as before.After so many years since their divorce, this is the first time they sat down to have a proper conversation.After Konnor's death, Kendall was unwilling to inherit everything from the Hawthorne family, but the shares he returned did not fall into his hands, nor did they fall into Jeffrey's hands.Nowadays, Jeffrey is just a nobody.Blaine's days were looking bright, but all was in Kendall's h
Kendall knew that he couldn't argue with Hannah, and if they continued to argue, they would definitely fight.He didn't speak anymore, took a few sips of hot drink, and then closed his eyes to take a nap.He didn't really have a good rest during this period of time. In order to rush over, he had been working overtime for five consecutive nights.The carriage was quiet with no one speaking. After the train got on the expressway, Hannah glanced at Kendall beside her.The person had already fallen asleep.She curled her lips slightly, knowing that this person was stubborn.Twenty minutes later, the car drove into the parking lot.Hannah drove the car well, while Kendall showed no signs of waking up.She took out her phone, checked the time, and it was already past eleven.Although Kendall was sleeping soundly, she didn't want to wake the person up, but she couldn't let him sleep in the car all the time, could she?Ha
Gemma woke up for the second time, and she stayed awake for a little longer, but not for too long. She managed to stay awake for about twenty minutes before falling asleep again.Hannah and Kendall stayed at the hospital until after 8 o'clock in the evening, when Gemma woke up again.When she woke up this time, she was feeling better, although she still couldn't speak very fluently, but much better than during the day.In the evening, Georgia brought dinner over, along with some soup.Kendall fed Gemma half a bowl of chicken soup and had a conversation with her before they left the hospital.It was very dark, and the two of them had already arrived home at nine o'clock.Hannah remembered Kendall's plan to return to LA tomorrow and couldn't help but ask, "What time is your flight tomorrow?""Around 7 o'clock in the morning, a bit early, I drove directly to the airport.""Okay."She took the cup from his hand and lowered h
When Hannah woke up, Kendall was already not in bed.Although I slept for a while, I didn't sleep well last night, and it is difficult to make up for it with a nap during the day.As soon as she got up, Hannah felt a bit dizzy. She picked up the phone beside her and realized it was already past twelve o'clock.She and Kendall didn't get home until 8 o'clock, and they only slept for four hours.I don't know how long Kendall slept.She sat on the bed for a while, and only got up and left the room after she woke up.Walking into the living room, Hannah saw Kendall on the phone.She took a glance, didn't walk over, and went to the countertop of the open kitchen to pour herself a glass of water. While drinking, she messaged Georgia, asking about Gemma's current situation that day.The message had been sent for a while, but Georgia did not reply.She had just looked up when Kendall had finished the call.The two of them
