If Justin was a cunning and deceitful old man with no moral boundaries, then Maximo was no less cunning.
Terry did not hide his relationship with the Sheppard family from Jessica, but he did not want her to come into contact with those people from the Sheppard family.
So he didn't want to see Maximo, but Maximo had a thicker skin than tree bark, so Terry had to go see him.
He had actually met Maximo once before, but their conversation was extremely unpleasant. Even though Terry and Madelyn had no personal relationship, hearing Maximo's words still disgusted him with the shamelessness of the Sheppard family.
After six or seven years, Maximo came looking for him again, and Terry didn't think it would be anything good.
Maximo came all the way from San Francisco to LA to find him as if he were a cat smelling fish.
Terry glanced at the navigation and stopped the car only after confirming that it was this villa.
These days in LA, it was rai
"Jessica?"At the moment of Jessica's despair, a familiar male voice suddenly came from the side.She froze for a moment, turned her head and saw Terry with medicine on her face and a cast on her hand. Jessica blinked her eyes and realized what had happened. She immediately ran over and hugged her tightly.Terry held her with his uninjured hand and saw the tears on her face. "Why are you crying? My hand isn't broken, it's just fractured."As soon as he finished speaking, a heart-wrenching cry suddenly came from ahead.Terry looked up and saw a woman and an old man falling onto the flatbed covered with a white cloth in front.He suddenly realized and leaned down to give Jessica a kiss, "Did I scare you?"Jessica also saw the scene ahead. At this moment, she also came back to her senses and looked at Terry in front of her, feeling a bit embarrassed.Unfortunately, there were too many tears on her face, and they dripped onto Terry
Terry's car accident really startled Jessica.She couldn't imagine what would have happened if Terry hadn't just come out of the villa area and the car hadn't been driving slowly, how he would have avoided the oncoming car.Due to this unexpected incident, Jessica took a leave of absence in the afternoon.The news of Terry's car accident quickly spread within the circle, with different accounts. Some said Terry's car accident was severe, and he died on the spot; some said Terry's car accident was severe, and both legs were amputated, and he would have to rely on a wheelchair for the rest of his life; there were also some who said Terry's car accident was severe, and he is still unconscious in the intensive care unit of the hospital.Things spread too quickly; Jessica didn't even have time to intercept the messages from Wendy.In the afternoon, around three o'clock, even Morgan in the South town called Jessica to inquire about Terry's situation.
Jessica had a dream where she arrived at the hospital and saw Terry lying on the stretcher that was being wheeled out of the emergency room after unsuccessful resuscitation.She didn't believe it, Terry was perfectly fine, just his right hand was broken.However, Jerry and Wendy came over and advised her to take it easy and accept the changes, Terry has already passed away.She listened to their words, and her legs went weak, and she collapsed onto the flatbed. Tears flowed out of her eyes like a broken dam.She held Terry's hand and kept calling his name, trying to wake him up. She said she was very scared.But Terry on the flatbed never opened his eyes. He seemed to be asleep, but he was sleeping too deeply. No matter how she called him, she couldn't wake him up.Jessica was on the verge of a breakdown, and just as she was feeling hopeless, someone suddenly embraced her. The familiar scent and familiar voice reached her, and she opened her
"Miss, we are studying art. When we go back, I will paint a picture for you and give it to you. Can you leave me your email address, Miss?"The girl was very polite and asked for an email, not a phone number or any other social media account like Line.Jessica didn't refuse and entered her email address on her phone.The two girls repeatedly thanked before leaving, "We won't post your photos online, miss."Terry raised an eyebrow when he heard this and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter if it's revealed."Upon hearing his words, both of the girls who were about to leave were taken aback.Jessica looked embarrassed and said, "It doesn't matter about the back.""Oh, okay. Miss, both you and your boyfriend looked so elegant, even in the photo taken from behind!""Thank you."Jessica smiled and glanced at Terry.The two girls thanked each other again and happily turned around and left.Jessica shifted her gaze
Terry's right hand was broken, so instead of going back to the office after the important meeting, he worked directly in his apartment.After taking a day off, Jessica went back to work at the Hall Group. She was quite busy during this period, and she would come home late. As soon as she arrived home, the meal was already prepared on the dining table.Of course, the meal was naturally not made by Terry. He is skilled, but he couldn't cook with both of his right hand broken.There was a project that required Jessica to go on a business trip, and it was decided at the last minute that Jessica would go.After finishing the meal, Jessica mentioned to Terry about her business trip tomorrow.Terry, who was standing beside her, heard her words and made a slight sound of disapproval, "How many days?""If it's fast, it will take three days; if it's slow, it may take five days."Jessica felt a little guilty under his gaze and couldn't help but
When Terry received Jessica's message, he had just finished changing the medicine.He replied to the message, and Jerry from outside walked in. "Mr. Davison, the family of the driver involved in the accident wants to see you."Terry raised an eyebrow and said, "I didn't see."Did he look like he had a lot of free time?Jerry had already guessed Terry's meaning. "Okay, I will go and refuse now."Terry waved his hand, paying no attention.After Jerry took Terry back to the apartment, he called the family of the driver involved in the accident and said, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Jackson, but our Mr. Davison said that everything is being handled according to legal procedures.""I know that the legal procedures have to be followed, but can't Mr. Davison make an exception and say that my husband didn't escape? They discussed it and agreed to resolve it afterwards!"Drunk driving is already a serious offense, and the other party even fled.
When Terry heard her words, she didn't feel the slightest bit embarrassed. "So, baby, you also know that I knocked over the vinegar jar."He said, looking down and smiling ambiguously, "So, did you still give him your contact information?"Jessica glanced at him and said, "Don't be so stingy. You also said he is the son of the Olsen Group. Who knows, we might have a collaboration in the future. It wouldn't hurt to secure a good friendship in advance."Although Jessica's words may have teased Terry a little, they were also true.She was not really familiar with Rolando, they were just acquaintances in college, and after graduation, Rolando went abroad directly. She didn't pay much attention to his news and didn't even know when he returned to the country.Today we happened to meet each other, so we added each other as friends, which will indeed be convenient for future collaboration.Terry looked at her, with a gentle smile in his peach bloss
Terry finished taking a shower and came out. He originally thought that Jessica had already fallen asleep, but to his surprise, when he looked towards the bed, he found that Jessica was still looking at her phone and hadn't fallen asleep.He raised an eyebrow and walked over, lifting his leg. "Aren't you tired?"I just yawned several times a moment ago.Jessica couldn't calm down for a long time after reading the messages Rolando sent.Upon hearing Terry's voice, she also felt too embarrassed to look at him, after all, her eyes were red, as red as they could be.She used to not be a person who easily shed tears, but ever since she started dating Terry, she seems to have become much more delicate.Terry rarely saw Jessica like this, and he thought she was feeling unwell. He quickly walked to the other side and bent down to lift her head, asking, "Are you feeling unwell?"His gaze fell upon those reddened eyes, and he was taken aback fo
Julie looked up and said, "I will go and have a look."She turned around and ran over to Hannah's side, as she spoke.Just now, Hannah saw that there were crabs in the cage and curiously asked Jessica, "Will there be crabs in the cracks of these stones?"Julie hadn't really thought about it, but don't crabs usually like to hide in crevices in shallow water? So she casually replied, "Sure, if you want to catch one, go down and take a look for yourself."Hannah really rolled up her pants, went down the stream, and searched for crabs among the gaps in the rocks.The stream was clear, you could see to the bottom at a glance.Hannah didn't take long to find a crab. She was planning to catch it and show off to Jessica, but the crab ran too fast. She kept finding several others, but they all managed to escape.This time she saw a quite big one, and didn't want to let the crab just run away like that, so she shouted for Jessica.Julie
Hannah was curious about everything, so when she saw that bamboo house, she pulled Julie and asked her all sorts of questions.Terry walked alongside Morgan and May, both of whom were quite advanced in age. Although the mountain was not very high and not difficult to climb, it still required physical effort, and the two of them fell behind by quite a bit.When they arrived in front of the bamboo house, Jessica and Hannah were already not inside the bamboo house.Terry poured the leftover tea for May and Morgan and pointed to the door of the bamboo house, saying, "Uncle, Aunt, Jessica said that Mr. Garrison found her in front of this bamboo house."Upon hearing Terry's words, Morgan's hand holding the teacup trembled.He also didn't care about drinking water anymore, and got up and walked to the front of the bamboo house.Just now they came up from the mountain and saw only a bamboo house amidst the lush greenery. There was a stream flowing n
I have to say, the three questions that Hannah asked in a row were the same questions that Morgan and May were concerned about.Jessica lost her memory, and they all didn't want to put pressure on her.They only have one precious daughter. When they first learned about Jessica's accident, both of them were devastated. Now that they have finally found her, Morgan and May naturally want to bring Jessica back home.Just now, Jessica and Terry walked in, talking and laughing. Both of them felt quite emotional inside.At this moment, the person most eager to have Jessica return should be Terry, and the person most anxious for Jessica to regain her memory is also Terry.But Terry seemed to have no worries about these issues. As parents, they couldn't bear to see Jessica struggling."It's true that this place was a bit poor, but Jessica lived happily and was doing fine."May sighed and said, "It's true, Jessica was definitely raised on a ped
Terry was clearly puzzled, "Will there be wild rabbits and pheasants on this mountain?"This side is all small hills, they are called mountains, but the altitude is not high, only about one or two hundred meters. It takes about three hours to go up from the foot of the mountain to the top slowly, and it takes a little over an hour to go up quickly.More than twenty years ago, it was not uncommon to see wild pheasants and wild rabbits. Given the current ecological environment, it is indeed quite unexpected to still have wild pheasants and wild rabbits.Julie looked at him and smiled, "What Roberto said, anyway, those who run in the mountains, nameless and faceless, what are they if not wild chickens and hares?""That's right."Terry thought that Roberto was indeed quite interesting. You said he was a bad person, but he didn't hesitate to save Jessica. You say he is a good person, but he is actually very "carefree".The two of them crossed the
Terry paused for a moment, watching Jessica's figure disappear. It was only then that he noticed Roberto lying on the lounge chair about ten meters ahead.At that moment, the sun was scorching hot, and Roberto covered his face with a straw hat to shield it from the direct sunlight.Julie walked over and looked at the sun hat on Roberto's face, raising an eyebrow and shaking her ponytail. She took a few steps forward and pulled the fishing line hard.Feeling the fishing rod in his hand move, Roberto quickly sat up from the lounge chair."Old man, there was a fish on the hook!"Roberto saw her and snorted, "What are you here for?""I saw you fishing!"Roberto scoffed, "It was you who pulled the fishing line just now, right?""Don't accuse me wrongly, I didn't do it."Julie didn't admit it.Roberto heard the commotion from Terry's side, turned his head and saw Terry throwing a bamboo cage into the stream. He instinct
Because Morgan and the others were still asleep, Julie had to leave a note on the table in the living room.Afterwards, she took Terry into the mountains.When the two of them were leaving, Lucas was still there. Seeing them leaving, he also followed along.Terry glanced at Jessica and didn't say anything.Julie paused and turned her head to look at Lucas. "Mr. Thomas, I suggest you go back and take care of your company. Although I have lost my memory and don't remember our past, I believe that since we got divorced, I must have had my reasons."She spoke, paused for a moment, and finally glanced at Lucas before bluntly adding, "Persistent pestering, it really lacks the grace of a man."Jessica before her amnesia had said something similar.With just one sentence, she left Lucas speechless.But he knew that Jessica had lost her memory, it was a second chance given to him by fate, even though he felt despicable in doing so.
Julie walked into the backyard and saw the clothes thrown in the trash bin. She glanced at them and then carried the clothes into the bathroom.Julie finished taking a shower and washing her hair before going out. Hannah was sitting at the door of the west wing and when she saw Julie coming out, she got up and tried to cover up the truth, saying, "There are too many mosquitoes over there."She spoke and showed her arm that had been stung.Julie glanced and said, "There were many mosquitoes in the evening, I suggest you wear long sleeves."Their clothes were brought by a woman who drove over after the rain stopped. The woman seemed quite excited when she saw her, her eyes even turned red as she looked at Julie.But Julie couldn't remember anything, so she just nodded her head as a way of greeting.The clothes Wendy brought over were quite thoughtful, as she prepared several sets for each person.Hannah obediently went to change into lo
Terry reacted quickly too. Upon hearing Jessica's words, he closed the box and threw it back into the pit.Julie hurriedly filled the soil back with a shovel. This box of gold, indeed, could not be exposed to light casually!She guessed that there were valuable things hidden inside, otherwise, during the few days she was unconscious and drugged, it couldn't possibly have been dug up by the old man going up the mountain.In the first few days after waking up, Roberto still made her drink medicine.Although Julie didn't have the ability to distinguish medicines, she could clearly recognize the thick ginseng placed in the kitchen.Although it is said that all ginseng nowadays has been cultivated, the one Roberto uses for medicinal purposes is mostly wild, and it grows so long. It must be quite expensive.It should be at least a few thousand, if not tens of thousands.This was just the money for a medicine, and later Roberto also bought h
Hannah saw Terry coming and tactfully left the kitchen.Terry also glanced at Jessica and said, "I just saw a big yellow dog."Julie paused her action of scrubbing the pot and said, "Tsk, you're quite naughty too."Terry looked at her, his eyes twinkling with a smile. He didn't say anything, but Julie somehow understood what he meant from the look in his eyes.She averted her gaze and started heating up the pan.Roberto was very stingy. He didn't give her much money, even though he knew they were going to the market today.Julie had one hundred and fifty dollars in her pocket and wanted to buy everything. But after looking around, she paid eighty dollars for clothes, and she was left with seventy dollars in her hand.Fortunately, things in remote and impoverished areas were cheap. She bought several pounds of pork and pig bones. She originally wanted to buy chicken, but Roberto said there were wild chickens in the mountains. When she
