  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

      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

      Looking at the gossip headlines that Hannah had sent her, Jessica felt it was ironic.  The headline said, "Old flame over new sweetheart."  She was never Lucas' old flame.  Hannah was so angry that she trembled. She could not help but curse, "Eden said that almost half of the paparazzi in LA have arrived at your apartment. You'd better not go out today. Lucas is really a son of a bitch!"  Hearing Hannah's words, Jessica frowned slightly. She got up and walked to the French window, pulling open the curtains to look downstairs.  However, she lived in a high place, so she couldn't see downstairs clearly.  Hannah scolded Lucas for a while. After a pause, she suddenly asked, "Jessica, Trissy has returned to America. I heard that she also stayed in that hotel. I suspect that Lucas' new lover is Trissy!"  Jessica chuckled when she heard this. "Even if it's not Trissy, can't we do something?"  Hannah was stunned for a moment. Then, she sudde

    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
