Paige was not a fool either, although Jessica's words were not stated explicitly, they were still quite obvious.A person, appearance changed, personality changed too, there is only one explanation, that person is simply not the same person anymore.Jessica didn't care who Dominic was, she just wanted to know what Dominic wanted to do."Do you know where he is now?"Jessica took a pack of tissues from her bag and handed it to Paige.Paige took the tissue and said thank you, then shook her head. "I don't know where he is! He hasn't contacted me in a long time! If it wasn't for that, I wouldn't have left my young son behind to come find him!"It can be seen that Paige did not lie.If Paige had known where Dominic went, she wouldn't have had to bring people to stake out Hannah. If she could have staked out Dominic, she wouldn't have resorted to violence against Hannah."Paige, I think you already had your own answer in your heart, the current Dominic is no longer the Dominic you knew, ev
Jessica put her phone back into her pocket, pulled her into the bathroom, and raised her hand to turn on the showerhead.The water was cold, and when it fell, Hannah jumped up immediately, saying, "The water is cold!""What are you afraid of in the middle of summer?"Jessica said as she directly took down the showerhead, "You're not sober, aren't you? Let me make you sober now!"Jessica said, holding the shower head directly towards Hannah's face.Hannah raised her hand and covered her face, saying, "You didn't have to be so harsh!"Jessica turned off the water after the showerhead sprayed her for a while, put her messy hair back, and said, "Take a good shower and wash off that unpleasant smell from your body, then come out!"Hannah heard her words and instinctively lowered her head to smell, "Where on me smells bad?"Jessica sneered and walked out the door directly.This was her first time coming to Hannah's house after
Hannah threw the pillow and wanted to go to the kitchen to eat something. As she walked to the kitchen door, she remembered that she had just cried.Forget it, I'll wash my face first.Jessica had just finished making sweet and sour spareribs when she turned around and saw Hannah.She raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "Not bad, you even know how to wash your face."Hannah looked at the golden sweet and sour spareribs and said, "Jessica, you are good at cooking."Jessica pushed her away and said, "Take it out."Hannah smelled a fragrance and said, "Is it sour and spicy fish?""Yeah, just like you, sour, tasteless, and unnecessary."Jessica was cooking the soup ingredients without even looking back.Hannah was devastated and dared not speak a word anymore. She went out carrying sweet and sour spareribs along with another dish.Jessica quickly finished making the sour and spicy fish, and she wore heat-resistant gl
Jessica couldn't stand him looking at her like this anymore, and even more so when he looked at her like this and called her "baby".With a deep and seductive voice, she felt her heart skip a beat as she met his peach blossom eyes. Jessica's face blushed slightly as she said, "You're pressing on my leg."Upon hearing her words, Terry lowered his head and glanced down.The next second, Jessica felt the weight on her thighs lifted, but the pressure on her chest increased slightly.Originally, the face that was still two or three centimeters away suddenly came close to her. With just a distance of two or three centimeters, Jessica could almost feel his breath.She blinked her eyes and said, "Why are you looking at me like that?""Um."He responded with a low voice, lowered his head, and began to kiss her.Jessica was taken aback until she was completely devastated, only then did she realize that Terry had intentionally misundersto
The sunlight at this time was just slanting from the window, shining on the red beans in the vase, creating a beautiful and magnificent scene.Jessica looked for a while, took out her phone and took a photo, and rarely posted it on Instagram.She went around to the other side of the dining table again, picked up the card, and read it a few more times. Then she took the card into the study and placed it between the pages of the notebook on the desk.The phone in the living room rang, and when Jessica walked out, the phone had already stopped ringing.She walked quickly over, picked up her phone, and found that it was a call from Terry.Soon, Terry's phone rang again.Jessica answered the phone, "Is it time to leave work, Mr. Davison?"Terry on the other end of the phone chuckled and said, "Received it, Ms. Hall?"Jessica raised an eyebrow when she heard his words and said, "What flowers? I didn't receive any."She only re
Terry sneered lightly and ignored him, taking Jessica's hand and saying, "Let's go inside first."Jessica nodded, but didn't move. Instead, she walked to the side and lifted her leg, forcefully stomping her high heel onto the man's foot. Then, she touched her own earring and said, "It seems like the clasp of my earring is missing."Terry smiled and, in sync with her acting, said, "Let me see?"The two of them stood there, checking if the earring clasp on Jessica's ear had fallen off, while her feet remained stepping on Conrad's feet.Jessica was wearing stiletto heels today. She was not at all polite and stepped directly on it with force, not holding back even a bit, and even added some extra force.Conrad's face turned blue from being stepped on, and he couldn't help but let out a gasp, "Hiss, Ms. Hall, you stepped on me!"Jessica turned around and looked down, "Ah, I'm sorry, I accidentally stepped on you!"When Jessica turned aroun
Jessica didn't want to stay up all night and replied directly, "No, I won't come."Hannah seemed to have recovered, and she sent several cute expressions in a row.Jessica turned off the screen directly, put down her phone, and acted as if she hadn't seen it.At this moment, the waiter came in pushing a trolley, it was the soup they had ordered."Jerry said the soup in this restaurant was delicious."Terry took a spoon and stood up to serve Jessica a bowl without asking the waiter for help.In the summer, appetite is not very good. Cantonese cuisine is light and served with soup. Jessica was still very satisfied with this meal.When I arrived, the sky was filled with rosy clouds. After finishing the meal, the outside had already turned completely dark."Are you full?"Upon hearing Terry's words, Jessica averted her gaze and nodded with a smile, saying, "I'm full."She said, withdrawing her hand from under her chin
After hanging up the phone, Jessica immediately grabbed her bag and left.She didn't remember the way, so she didn't drive and hailed a taxi downstairs.May's Hospital was quite a distance from the apartment. By the time Jessica reached the hospital entrance, it was already past ten o'clock at night.Just as she got out of the car, Jerry came up to her and said, "Ms. Hall, Mr. Davison has just finished the examination and is waiting for the results. He asked me to come out and pick you up."Jessica nodded and on the way there, she had already calmed down her mood, "What's going on?"Jerry roughly explained the situation, "It was an accident. We were coming out of a hotel when the other party was on the phone and accidentally stepped on the wrong pedal, causing them to rear-end our car."Jessica frowned, "Is Terry injured?"Jerry shook his head and said, "Mr. Davison had a minor abrasion, and it has been taken care of."Jessica
Jessica thought Terry was just going for a joyride when he said they were going out for a drive, until he led her to the Video Arcade, and then she understood the true meaning of Terry's words "haven't taken her out to play in a long time."She looked at everything shining inside the Video Arcade and felt somewhat surprised, "You... like playing these?"She had completely forgotten about the past events, so she naturally had no idea why Terry had brought her here.Terry smiled and glanced at her, "Hmm, I liked it."He said he liked it, but that "like" didn't seem like an answer to her question, but rather something he said to her.Jessica raised an eyebrow and pretended not to understand his words, she averted her gaze and said, "I didn't expect that, Mr. Davison.""It's not too late to know now."He exchanged the coins and then took her to play everything.The two of them came out of the Video Arcade and it was already past on
The big pot in the kitchen was still warm with hot water. Terry took a basin and filled it with hot water, then carried it back to the room to soak Jessica's feet.Because it rained, not only did the shoes get muddy, but they also got wet from the water.Jessica's socks were all wet, so she took them off and her feet became as cold as ice cubes.Terry held her foot and said, "It's a bit hot, be careful.""Um."Jessica nodded her head and saw him getting up to go out again. "Where are you going?""Take your boots to wash and dry them by the stove."Upon hearing his words, Jessica immediately grabbed him and said, "Stop it for now, aren't your shoes wet too? Let's soak them together."Terry was wearing leather shoes, and those black shoes were already covered in mud.Jessica knew that he had OCD, her gaze fell on his shoes, and her heart felt a little sour.He always seemed to be like this, never speaking up when he
At six o'clock in the morning, the alarm clock rang, and Jessica was awakened. She opened her eyes, and the room was still lit. She hadn't slept well all night and had a slight headache.Terry on the side took the phone, turned off the alarm clock, and glanced outside the window, saying, "It's still dark outside.""Um."Jessica responded, "They arrived around seven o'clock."Yesterday, the funeral service personnel communicated with her and said that it would be best to have the burial before eight o'clock, as it is the local custom.Jessica was in charge of these matters for the first time and didn't know anything. The other party was professional, so she naturally listened to them.Since the burial is scheduled before 8 o'clock, they have to arrive before 7 o'clock, and they have to leave before 7:30.She didn't sleep well. Terry looked at the dark circles under her eyes and said, "You go back to sleep, I'll make breakfast."
Morgan and May arrived a little after four in the afternoon, and Jessica and Terry had already tidied up the rooms they had previously stayed in.There are a total of two rooms, one that Jessica used to live in and one on the side of the yard. Four people were just enough to live in.As soon as Morgan and May entered the room, they saw the wooden coffin placed in the middle of the hall and both of them felt a bit nostalgic.Morgan turned fifty this year, the age of destiny, and increasingly felt that he was no longer young. His energy and physical strength were not as good as before.A few months ago, Roberto was still fine, but now he's gone just like that. Morgan looked at the coffin and couldn't help but sigh."Dad, Mom."Jessica also tidied up her mood and handed two cups of hot water to Morgan and May.May glanced at Jessica and said, "Don't be too sad, Jessica."Jessica smiled and said, "I was indeed feeling down this mor
Roberto didn't like to socialize with people in the village on regular days, and now that he's gone, there is no one coming to the village.The front door of the old house was hung with white paper, which was blown by the wind and tangled together.Terry boiled hot water and brought it to Jessica, saying, "It's windy here."Jessica had been standing at the door for quite a while. The weather today was not very good. It had been gloomy since she woke up in the morning, and it was still gloomy now, almost noon.Jessica took the cup and turned around to look at Terry. "I told you, Roberto's personality, when he's gone, not many people come to see him off."She held the water cup and turned around to walk back.The door was not closed, it was left open, making it convenient for people to come in.But when everyone saw the white paper stuck on the door, they all understood what was going on. Normally, they were not very familiar with what
It was a little after six in the morning, and the sound of a ringing phone echoed in the quiet room, which seemed quite abrupt.Jessica was suddenly awakened, and Terry also heard the phone ringing. He opened his eyes and reached out to turn on the room light when she grabbed her phone.The dark room suddenly became bright, and the light was a bit dazzling. Jessica raised her hand to shield her eyes and answered the phone, "Hello, how are you?"Because I had just been awakened, my voice sounded a bit hoarse.The person on the phone spoke urgently, "Is this Julie? This is Long Town Hospital. Mr. Garrison suddenly had a heart failure just now and was rushed in for resuscitation. Can you come to the hospital?"Jessica's hand trembled slightly, "Okay, I'll be right there."Upon hearing her words, Terry also realized what was going on.He took the clothes beside him and handed them to Jessica. The two of them quickly changed into pajamas,
Jessica walked out of the ward, and there were no medical staff patrolling outside the hospital corridor. Two nurses were sitting at the nurse station, and no one was speaking. The only sound was the footsteps of her shoes on the floor.It was already past 8 o'clock in the evening at this time. She had just bought a sweet potato at the door, but she only ate half of it and couldn't finish it, so she threw it away. After a busy afternoon, she now feels hungry and tired.The person entered the elevator, feeling unusually heavy and uncomfortable.Roberto's words left her speechless. Their relationship couldn't reach the point where she could forcefully demand him to accept treatment. He was unwilling to continue with the therapy, and she had no means at all.Roberto had not put the keys into her bag yet, and Jessica looked down at the keys in the palm of her hand, feeling a bit absent-minded.The elevator door "dinged" and opened in response. She look
Jessica was taken aback for a moment. She pursed her lips and then raised her eyebrows, walking in with a lifted leg. "Roberto, it's only been a few days. How did you manage to get yourself like this?"When she said these words, her tone was relaxed, as if she didn't know anything yet.Roberto looked at her for a moment, then snorted coldly after a while, "How did you know I was here?""Didn't you ask me to come over?"Jessica walked up to the bedside, her footsteps coming to a halt, and raised an eyebrow, "So, should I leave?"With that, she actually turned around and prepared to leave.Roberto, seeing the situation, quickly spoke up, "Stop! Come back to me!"He was only saved last night, and at this moment, even though he tried his best, his voice was still not as strong as before, and there was even a hint of weakness that couldn't keep up.Jessica stopped in her tracks, turned around, and glanced at the medicine packets on
Things quieted down for Heidy and Wilson, and the gossip in the circle also decreased. Jessica and Terry, on the other hand, became busier day by day towards the end of October.The day Jessica received the phone call from Long Town, she happened to be out of LA. During those days, she was coincidentally on a business trip with Wendy.The first time she saw it was an unfamiliar call, she immediately rejected it, until the other person quickly made a second call. Jessica then answered, "Hello, I am Jessica.""Jessica? Aren't you Julie?""Julie," it had been a long time since someone called her by that name, Jessica paused for a moment, "Julie is me.""Oh, well, here's the thing. We have a patient here named Mr. Garrison. He was just resuscitated last night and he's a bit more conscious this morning. He asked me to get in touch with you, Julie."Jessica didn't know anyone named Mr. Garrison, but in Long Town, the only person who knew her as Ju
