 Mrs. Hall saw their stealthy interactions and clicked her tongue. "Jess, the issue is not about you alone. Mom and dad don't just uphold justice for you. Don't be confused."

  Of course, Jessica knew it. She was just worried that they were tired from the flight. Now, it seemed that she was overthinking.

  Jessica laughed, "I'm not that stupid."

  May snorted and thought to herself, "If she is not stupid, why did she insist on marrying Lucas?"

  But Jessica was her daughter, so May could not bear to render her more wretched.

  "Let's go to the parking lot."

  Jessica led them to the parking lot. When she opened the door, she found that Morgan was carrying a box. She couldn't help but frown. "Dad, what's that?"

  "Nothing."

  Morgan waved his hand and bent down to get in the car following May.

  Jessica did not ask any more questions. Instead, she said to Wendy, "Wendy, let's go to Thomas' house."

  Wendy was stunned for a moment but soon reacted.

  The Morgan couple rushed over in a h

      Lucas glanced at Jessica, who was standing by Mrs. Hall's side nonchalantly.  Hearing Morgan's words, Rebecca said quickly, "Mr. Hall, Mrs. Hall, let's talk about it inside."  Olivia could not help but call out, "Mom!"  The Hall family was menacing, and it was obvious that they were here to settle old scores.  Olivia glanced at Jessica, but unexpectedly, she met her gaze, which made Olivia stiffen and feel guilty.  What the hell! How could she feel guilty while looking at Jessica?  Rebecca stared at Olivia and shook her head, suggesting that she shut up.  Rebecca was so smart a woman that she couldn't fail to see that Jessica's parents came in a fit of anger.  They entered her house. Rebecca asked a servant to prepare coffee, and Morgan immediately rejected. "We don't need coffee, Mrs. Thomas. We came here today for our daughter. Formalities are unnecessary. After all, even if we are not enemies, we are by no means friends later."  Morgan's words sounded serious. The two fa

      The Thomas family was one of the best among rich families in LA, but it was the first time they had seen so much gold.  The box of gold was a bit dazzling under the light. They were all stunned.  Justin reacted and was slightly stunned. "Mr. Hall, what do you want to do?"  Morgan looked up at Justin and said, "Mr. Thomas, the Hall family has never liked to owe others a debt. Jess married into your family for three years. I think this box of gold is enough to cover her expenses there."  He paused for a moment. "We, the Hall family, don't owe you anything until this moment. Now it's time to count how many evil deeds you did to us?"  Morgan had been in the business world for many years and had long since developed the ability to look dignified without being furious. He kept a straight face while speaking, but anyone present could hear the anger in his words.  Justin's face turned cold when he heard Morgan's words. "Mr. Hall, I don't quite understand what you mean."  That was the

      Jessica glanced at him and said, "You don't have to be so loud, Lucas. Since we're divorced, I won't argue with you about what happened in the three years of our marriage. Your grandfather said I was talking nonsense. The Thomas family knows very well whether I was talking nonsense or not."  "I don't care about what happened in those three years, but my parents are right about the two things that Olivia did. If the Thomas family doesn't give us a satisfactory answer today, no one will have dinner in peace today."  Jessica uttered each word clearly.  Before she came over, Jessica was calm. However, the Thomas family had gone too far, and they were better at lying than anyone else.  Jessica knew that the Thomas family looked down on her when she married into the family as a commoner.  What Jessica didn't expect was that Olivia would not let things go after she had divorced Lucas. Jessica just wanted an explanation, and Justin was lying to her face.  "I have the evidence that Oli

      Morgan had been a businessman for so many years, so he naturally was not a simple person.  Morgan thought asking the Thomas family to compensate them with money and then apologizing in private was not a proper punishment. That would not affect the Thomas family at all.  But if Olivia were to apologize in public, it would be different. Hadn't she enjoyed bullying Jessica with Trissy in those three years?  Morgan remembered everything. He had discussed everything with Mrs. Hall before he came.  Morgan added, "By the way, the Thomas family doesn't have to try to compensate our family. After all, in the past two days, we lost our reputation because of Miss Thomas. If we do the math, I'm afraid the Thomas family will think that we are greedy."  Morgan's mocking words made the Thomas family embarrassed.  Justin stopped talking after hearing Jessica's words. He didn't know what to say.  Justin was used to treating Jessica harshly. Now that she had turned against him, he knew that it

      Justin looked at Lucas' back and thought of what Morgan had said. He raised his walking stick and knocked on the back of the sofa that Olivia was sitting on.  Justin said angrily, "Go and apologize immediately! You can't leave the house until this is solved!"  This was the second time Olivia had seen Justin being that angry.  When the walking stick came to her, Olivia thought it was going to hit her. Now that she had come back to her senses, Olivia did not dare to say a word and hurriedly went upstairs.  At this time, the butler reminded Justin, "Mr. Thomas, dinner is ready."  Olivia could not help but stop when she heard this. She raised her hand to touch her stomach and looked pitifully at Rebecca who was not far away.  Rebecca saw her daughter's pleading eyes and she had to say, "Dad, there is no hurry. Why don't we have dinner first and then let Olivia..."  "Have dinner? Do you still have the mood to eat?"  Justin was so angry that he went upstairs after saying that.  A

      After walking into the box, Bailey surprisingly said to Tony, "Dad, who is that Mr. Hall?"  Wasn't Jessica a nobody?  But why was her father so polite to Mr. Hall?  Tony stopped smiling. "There is only one Hall family in New York. Who else could that Mr. Hall be?"  Bailey had guessed this, but she did not believe it. Now hearing Tony's words, she was shocked, her face slightly pale. "How is this possible? How can Jessica's family be the richest one in New York!"  If Jessica was Morgan's daughter, it would be ridiculous for Olivia and her to sneer at Jessica.  Barley didn't believe it, but what Tony said next completely struck her.  "I don't care what happened between you and Jessica, but if you dare to treat Jessica like before, I will suspend all your cards!"  "Dad..."  Bailey started at Tony with her eyes wide open. Even Mrs. Wade, who usually spoiled her so much, didn't say anything on her side. Mrs. Wade said, "Bailey, be a

      Hannah chuckled. "Olivia said sorry to you on Twitter. Now all the socialites in LA are asking you how you became the daughter of Morgan Hall. Just check the picture I sent to you."  Olivia was quite fast.  But Jessica was driving, so she smiled and said. "I just drove my parents back to the hotel. I'm still driving. Talk to ya later."  Olivia's apology surprised Jessica a little. It was too soon.  Olivia apologized on Twitter first. After all, the rumor about Jessica finding a sugar daddy started on Twitter.  Hannah was right! Olivia's apology was a shock.  As the richest family in New York, the Hall family ranked top ten domestically in terms of wealth. It was exceptionally rich!  So if Jessica was Morgan's daughter, what did that mean?  It meant that Jessica's marriage with Lucas was not to climb up the social ladder. Instead, Lucas's family was not good enough for her.  There were only a few rich families in the small upper

      Hannah snorted. "He settled so much trouble for you before. He probably couldn't sleep last night after knowing that you were Uncle Morgan's daughter."  Jessica shrugged. "What does it have to do with me?"  "By the way, Mona said she would treat us to lunch this afternoon," Hannah said.  Jessica smiled. "Cool."  Mona was seldom so generous. They had worked hard to help her get customers, but she had only given them a membership card.  It was already past eleven o'clock when they arrived at the restaurant. Jessica saw Lucas and his friends once she got out of her car.  Hannah followed Jessica's gaze and saw Lucas. She quickly looked at Jessica and asked, "It's Lucas. Should we go say hello?"  Jessica tilted her head and glanced at her. "Why would we?"  With that, Jessica directly turned around and walked into the restaurant before Lucas came over.  Hari, who was about to come over and say hello, was stunned when he saw Jessica t

    Jessica was strolling in the garden downstairs of the hospital, where a young mother was playing soccer with a little boy.The football rolled up to her. Jessica picked it up and watched as the little boy ran over."Miss Pretty."What a sweet little boy! Calling her pretty though it was the first time they met.Jessica raised a brow. "Aren't you a cutie pie?"She spoke as she handed the football back to the little boy.Just then, Lucas returned with an ice cream in his hand. The little boy licked his lips while watching from a distance.Jessica found it amusing and waved at the little boy, saying, "Come here."The little boy obediently ran over holding the football and said, "Miss Pretty.""Wanna eat ice cream, huh?"The little boy nodded and then shook his head. "No."Although he said "no", his eyes betrayed him.Jessica clicked her tongue and asked again, "You sure?"The little boy didn't say anything this time, only swallowing hard.Jessica pointed to Lucas beside her and said, "If

    The two walked to a nearby restaurant for lunch. On the way back, they stopped at the zebra crossing to wait for the light. The interval was a bit long, about 100 seconds. "How about playing a little game?" Jessica was curious. "What kinda game?" "Guess whether the number of the white stripes on this zebra crossing is odd or even." Jessica instinctively glanced down and asked, "Is there a reward if I win?" "Sure." Jessica arched her brow and said, "Then what if I lose?" "When we cross the street, you're gonna give me a kiss." Jessica looked up at Lucas, figuring it was indeed something he could come up with. She shot a glance at the zebra crossing and said, "I guess it's even." "Then I guess it's odd." While they were talking, the red light across the street turned green. They exchanged a glance and both silently counted the white stripes. "11, 12, 13, 14, 15—" Once they crossed over, Jessica announced triumphantly, "And the last one, 16! It is an even number. You lost, L

      Jessica was shocked by what Wendy had said. Five years ago, it could be said to be a farce. But if Oscar did have something to do with Justin's death, it was murder.  Jessica realized how serious the whole thing was. She had instructed Wendy to gather more evidence and then hurriedly returned home.  Jessica finished reading the report Wendy had given her, and she felt that Wendy's guess was reasonable.  For the sake of certainty, Jessica called Wendy, asking her to share the report with Vincent.  Jessica sat in the living room, carefully thinking about the whole thing. She always felt that Luna wanted to marry Lucas simply for the sake of the wealth of the Thomas family.  Unlike Oscar, Luna wouldn't have gone as far as murdering.  Luna wouldn't risk going into prison. If she did end up in prison, she wouldn't be able to enjoy a luxurious life.  Therefore, it was very likely that Luna had been used by Oscar.  When Jessica thought of t

      Jessica took out a small box from the drawer and there was a necklace inside.  It was the necklace that Jessica found when she returned to that room five years ago. She had always thought it was Lucas'. Yet she later learned it belonged to Terry.  Ever since she found out that the necklace was Terry's, she had never brought it with her anymore. She kept it in the box.  Now that she looked at the necklace and had a new doubt.  Why would Terry's necklace appear in that room?  She checked the time before she called Terry.  Terry was very happy when he received Jessica's call. She rarely took the initiative to call him.  Jessica invited him out for dinner, and the two of them arrived at a steakhouse not far from the Hall Group.  When Terry arrived, Jessica was already sitting in the reserved seat. He looked at Jessica's back, and a feeling of longing surged in his heart.  He quickly walked over and looked at Jessica with a smile. "

      Oscar stood up and walked to Lucas' table. "When I become the CEO of Thomas Group, I'd love to arrange some new work for you."  "Is that so?" Lucas sneered. "Get this project done first. As far as I know, there were casualties in your first joint project with the Davison Group. If Terry weren't that eager to go against me, he wouldn't have given any project to someone like you who has no competence at all."  Oscar was utterly irritated.  He hated it when others said that he had no competence at all.  However, Lucas was now the CEO of the Thomas Group. If he beat Lucas now, Lucas would directly drive him out of the company.  He had not gotten the Thomas Group yet, so he could not make a move driven by impulse.  Yet the contempt in Lucas' eyes was like a sharp knife, stabbing at his sore point.  Oscar took a step back, looked at Lucas, and sneered after taking a deep breath.  He said, "Have a good time now. You don't get everything. If

      Although Terry rejected Oscar's request, he did give Oscar some new projects.  However, compared to the projects in the northland, these projects were really not enough.  In the recent company executive meeting, the number of people supporting Oscar had obviously decreased, and even the executive who had a relationship with Louis lost his confidence in Oscar.  This made Oscar even more annoyed. He called Terry again.  He had to reach Jessica through Terry.  "If you don't help me, I will go to the Hall Group myself. It's not like I don't know what she looks like," Oscar said bitterly.  "If you go to her, I will immediately suspend all the cooperation with you."  Jessica was Terry's bottom line. Terry wouldn't make any compromise.  After hanging up the phone, Oscar angrily pushed everything on the table to the ground, and then slammed the coffee cup. The sound of the cup shattering came from his office.  Oscar sat in his chair wi

      Jessica looked at Lucas. For the first time, Jessica didn't feel offended by Lucas' indifferent attitude. All of a sudden, she seemed to have understood what his attitude was about.  She understood that his attitude was just a disguise.  In the past, Jessica thought it was his arrogance. After all, he seemed to have owned the whole world back then.  "I didn't expect that," Jessica said calmly. "I never wanted anyone to replace you. It's just I hate it when others are plotting against my family. I believe you feel the same."  "Then what is this conversation about?" Lucas felt bitter. Even his voice became hoarse.  "I don't think you need me to teach you what to do. You are not a person who will willingly accept failure." Jessica paused for a moment before she spoke.  "But I have to accept it when it comes to you," Lucas said peacefully. The arrogant man finally admitted his failure in love.  Jessica didn't feel the pleasure of revenge at al

     Jessica was confused, but she didn't call Terry directly.  She knew that if she called Terry, he would immediately tell her what his relationship with Oscar was.  But now, she didn't know if she could believe what Terry would say.  After getting off work, Jessica and Hannah came to Mona's nightclub together.  Caesar and Lance were there today. The few of them chatted together.  Jessica had to drive back by herself, so she only ordered a glass of alcohol-free juice.  "Jessica, that Oscar seems very active recently. Do you know him?"  No one from the Thomas Group and Thomas family had appeared in their topic for a long time, and after Caesar asked this question, the others all stared at Jessica.  "To be honest, I didn't know this person before," Jessica shrugged. "Lucas' father has been living outside and he has a child. That's all I know."  Jessica wasn't lying. She felt that Olivia and Rebecca should know something, but they wou

      Oscar knew that Lucas would definitely look down on him, but he did not care. With the help of Louis, he had already obtained a management position in the Thomas Group.  "How is it, Oscar?" Louis followed Oscar to his office. Every time he saw his kid with Amanda, he felt proud.  Louis found himself useful. He just helped his son get a position.  Oscar turned to look at Louis, and the corners of his mouth curled into a self-mocking smile. "Dad, you have to know that the entire Thomas Group will finally fall into our grip."  "What are you talking about, Oscar!" Louis panicked when he heard that. He then hurriedly looked around to see if anyone was listening.  "Dad, what are you nervous about? You are grandpa's only son. The Thomas Group should have been yours."  "That may be true, but the Thomas Group is in your brother's hands now," Louis said awkwardly.  Louis wanted to make money, but he also knew he was not capable enough to run the Tho
