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 aHannah 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
After calming down, Mona said, "It's part of the reason." If it was not for the fear that Jessica would feel uncomfortable, she would have said it's the main reason. Hearing their words, Jessica raised her eyebrows. "So you guys learned a lot from my failed marriage." Hannah patted Jessica on the shoulder. "That's right! I finally found out that we can't be humble in love." Mona was really good at making up for it. Indeed she was Jessica's close friend. "Hannah, stop. I haven't moved my legs for a long time." Hannah was instantly frightened by Jessica's glance. "Ok, nothing." As they were chatting, the elevator door not far away opened. Terry was in a suit and leather shoes and came out of the elevator then. His secretary followed him. At first glance, he looked like an elite. With his cold face and cold and thin eyes, he looked charming. Jessica met his deep eyes when she looked up. Terry seemed to have known that she
"Then do something interesting." Terry blinked at Jessica. Hearing that, Jessica subconsciously asked, "What interesting thing?" Terry suddenly smiled and his eyes lit up. "Be my girlfriend." If other women heard Terry's words, they would have blushed. But Jessica only felt a shiver in her heart, and she had no other emotions. She stood there with a calm smile. "That is not very interesting." Terry wasn't unhappy about her words. He smiled and said, "Then forget about it." He didn't feel awkward at all when he was rejected. "Night snack?" "Mr. Davison, what would you like to eat?" Terry told Jessica a location that she had never heard of before. He had probably guessed that she did not know it, so he took out his phone to open the Google map for her. Terry was indeed good at seeking fun and picking unusual places. As soon as Jessica followed Terry in, she heard someone greet him. It was an Italian restaurant, an
Jessica cast an indifferent glance at Lucas and then walked past him in her high heels. Just as she walked out and was about to disappear into the darkness, Lucas suddenly said, "Do you think you can make me awkward by doing so?" Jessica suddenly stopped in her tracks and smiled. She looked back at Lucas, "Mr. Thomas, are you talking to me?" Although she was smiling, her eyes remained indifferent. Lucas felt that Jessica's gaze was a bit harsh as she had never looked at him like this before. And her words upset him even more. He frowned and his face turned cold in an instant. "I won't be fooled by your hard—to—get games." Hari could not help but take a deep breath. To tell the truth, Lucas had gone a little too far. Jessica looked at him and laughed in anger, "Hard—to—get games? Lucas, do you think that I still love you? Who made you think so?" As she spoke, her face turned cold. Before Lucas co
Strictly speaking, it was not a bracelet, it was a simple male necklace. Jessica had found it in her wrist after waking up on that night of the mistake four years ago. She had always thought that the necklace belonged to Lucas, so she had worn it all the time as a treasure. Even after the divorce, she decided to give Lucas up, but she was still reluctant to part with the necklace. Apart from that, she wore it to remind herself that she and Lucas were a mistake from the start. But now, Terry told her that the necklace was his, which meant that the person who was with her that night four years ago was Terry, not Lucas. Terry took the necklace back and tied it around his neck. Jessica had been wearing it as a bracelet for more than three years, and now he was wearing it as a necklace. She stood there and looked at the necklace on his neck. After a while, she said, "So I don't own you anything now, right?" Terry didn't say anythi
Jessica was indeed disgusted by Lucas tonight. She had been divorced for so long. Even if Olivia spread rumors everywhere, Jessica just treated them as jokes. To her, the life in the Thomas family had passed and Lucas was only her ex—husband. She did not want to care about who was right and who was wrong anymore. Now that they are divorced, they should be strangers. That night, Lucas didn't believe that she did not push Trissy. It disappointed Jessica the most. Moreover, what Lucas had said just now even caused her to doubt his morality. Jessica looked at the flashing neon lights outside the window. Then she came back to her senses and suddenly remembered something. She turned to ask Terry, who was driving, "Didn't you drink?" Terry slowly stopped the car and waited for the green light. He looked at her and said, "Only a little." Jessica looked at him. "Or did you not drink at all?" Terry did not give her a direct
Jessica called Hannah twice, but she didn't get through, so she called Mona's shop. "Mona!" The receptionist answered the phone, came over, and said in Mona's ear, "Miss Hall wants to talk to Miss Howell." "Got it." Mona responded and looked at Hannah, who was dancing with someone not far away. Mona went on stage and pulled her down. Hannah was a little dissatisfied when she was pulled down. "What are you doing? That handsome guy is interesting!" "Jessica wants you to call her back." For Hannah, good friends were certainly much more important than the handsome guy! Hannah was stunned for a moment. She quickly ran to the seat and checked her phone. She saw two missed calls from Jessica. Her heart skipped a beat. She had a bad premonition. She was right. After hearing Jessica's words, she was completely stunned. Hannah said, "Jessica, didn't I hear it wrong? You said that the person who caused the accident
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
"You have such a bad temper! Who on earth taught you that!"Roberto watched as she took a piece and put it in her mouth. Finally, unable to bear it any longer, he huffed and turned around to get the key.Julie saw the key and immediately grabbed it, then handed the watermelon in the bowl to him, saying, "I forgot about the past, as soon as I opened my eyes, I saw you. Who taught me all these bad thoughts?"After Julie finished speaking, she proudly walked into the main hall with the key in her hand.Roberto was mocked by her for a while again, "You! You quickly go back to your home!"Julie didn't know whether she didn't hear or didn't want to answer his question, so she didn't respond.Roberto watched as she walked into the main hall, "slammed" the door shut, locked it, and then sat on the nearby rocking chair, eating watermelon greedily.Julie took the key to the west wing and was able to tidy up a room for her parents to stay in. At
Roberto lived alone and didn't even have a refrigerator in his house.After Julie bought the watermelon, she had no choice but to tie it inside a wooden barrel and then put it into the well.Before leaving, Julie was worried that the rain would smash the melon. She had already covered the well in advance. The rain was still pouring heavily. Julie held an umbrella and walked to the edge of the well, saying, "It's inside."Terry handed her the umbrella, and she reached out to take it. Then Terry lifted the well cover and saw a rope tied to the well ring next to it. He thought it must be Jessica's tied watermelon, so he put the well cover aside, untied the rope, and pulled it up with force. Soon, Terry pulled up the bucket.The watermelon, weighing over ten kilograms, was tightly bound by Jessica and placed inside the wooden barrel. The barrel was also filled with water, making it weigh over thirty kilograms when lifted.Luckily, Terry had strong arms
Just then, Morgan and a few others happened to walk over, holding umbrellas on the side.Roberto, upon seeing the situation, immediately closed the door again.Julie acted quickly, placing the umbrella aside, stepping inside with one foot, and pushing the door with her other hand. "Old man, I don't care about others, but you're going too far by not letting my parents inside the house, aren't you?""This was my house! I used to let anyone in that I wanted! If I didn't feel like it, I wouldn't even let you in. What's so unreasonable about that?"Roberto hadn't finished speaking when Julie's other hand, which wasn't blocking the door, suddenly pinched his cheek.Roberto immediately jumped and let go of Julie's hand, slapping it lightly. "What are you doing? As a girl, why would you touch someone without permission?"Julie took advantage of him loosening his grip and pushed the door open, laughing, "You talk so tough, I've always been curious if
The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Julie, having nothing to do, took out a chessboard and played chess with Roberto."Old man, your chess skills are too poor. How many times have you regretted your moves?"Roberto felt no shame at all. "You, girl, don't you understand the importance of respecting the elderly and caring for the young? I am of an advanced age; can't you give in to me?""No, I won't. In chess, there is no distinction between big and small. If I can't win, I will admit defeat. Besides, I won't laugh at you. How can you still have the audacity to ask me to let you win?"The rain in August was like someone pouring water from the sky, pouring down heavily. The rain hit the eaves with a "pitter-patter" sound, and the courtyard was filled with misty rain. Occasionally, there would be arguments between an old and a young person inside the house.When the knocking sound came, Roberto's face immediately fell. "It's for you, go open the
Lucas looked at the woman in front of him, even though she was wearing the simplest and plainest clothes, her eyebrows, eyes, and temperament clearly belonged to Jessica without a doubt.He was somewhat incredulous when he heard her call out his name as soon as she opened her mouth, "You, remember me?"Some people lost their memory, but they didn't forget everything. They would remember certain people and certain things.Jessica remembered him too, didn't she?This speculation made Lucas' heart surge with excitement, but the next second, Jessica's words shattered his fantasy. "I don't remember, I have amnesia, I don't remember anything."Upon hearing her words, the brightness in the golden eyes dimmed significantly. "How do you know what my name is?""The Thomas family, Lucas; the Thomas family, Olivia, is it difficult to find online?"After meeting Olivia at the market, before she came back, I had already searched Olivia on Baidu at
