The car drove onto the main road, and Terry turned his head to look at Jessica beside him, asking, "Are you angry?"
Jessica didn't wear shoes on her feet, she put her feet on the chair, and could only lean her body slightly, with more than half of her body leaning against Terry.
Upon hearing his words, she looked up at him with a smile that seemed both genuine and mocking, and said, "Why would I be angry?"
Terry held her hand, as if he was playing with a precious jade, kneading it in his hand.
Jessica's fingers grew hot from his pinch, and she instinctively pulled her hand back slightly. "Ms. Bolton from CV, I heard her lover couldn't even count to ten with his fingers."
When Jessica said this, there was a hint of amusement in her voice.
Terry enjoyed watching her get jealous, even though she didn't admit it.
His hand fell on her waist, exerting a slight force, and Jessica was lifted up onto his body.
The two of them were still
Terry mooched off others so shamelessly that Jessica slept until after 9 o'clock the next day.When I woke up, the sky outside was already bright, and Terry had already gone to the office.There was a missed call in the phone, it was from May.Jessica brought out breakfast from the kitchen and called May back in the meantime.The engagement banquet dress had been made, and she had it sent over. Jessica tried on the size first, and had the size altered at the dress store here.In the afternoon, Jessica received the dress sent by May. The dress, weighing over two kilograms, was packed in a box. If Jessica hadn't received May's call earlier and known that it was a dress inside, she would have suspected it to be a timed bomb sent by Morgan or Terry's enemies.Taking advantage of the free time these days, Jessica went to the bridal shop the next day with her dress.The size of the dress was made according to the measurements she took befor
Hannah: "Kicked away the dog food that fell from the sky!"Mona: "High-quality dog food, can't bear to kick it away."Layton: "I learned, please thank Mr. Davison for me."Lance: "The single dog felt hurt."Kim: "Learned."Wendy: "I was a bit full, Ms. Hall."Jerry: "Mr. Davison was amazing!"***In just ten minutes, Jessica's Instagram post had already received over a hundred likes, and the comments were so numerous that they filled several screens.Jessica couldn't help but laugh as she looked at their comments.Terry raised an eyebrow on the side and asked, "Is there something happy?"Upon hearing his words, Jessica glanced at him and raised the bouquet of lollipop flowers in her hand, saying, "Isn't this worth being happy about?"Terry glanced at her sideways and, when he looked forward again, a gentle smile appeared on his usually cold face.Terry was driving the car, and Jessica didn't b
Jessica was awakened by Terry. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Terry's face close by.She was stunned for a moment, took two seconds to recover, and then realized, "Why are you back? Weren't you in a meeting?"The voice that came out was somewhat hoarse, Jessica said as she raised her hand and hooked it around his neck.Terry helped her brush away the stray hair from her face and said, "I called you."He didn't continue speaking, but Jessica understood what he meant.Terry lifted her up, and Jessica instinctively held onto his neck.She was carried into the bathroom, and slowly placed down. Terry held her waist and said, "Step on my feet."Jessica heard his words, turned around and glanced at him, stepping on his shoes."Washed face."His hand trembled as he held it around her waist, and with his other hand, he turned on the faucet.Water gushed out with a splash, and Jessica reached out to catch a handful
Terry knew that Jessica had a fever, and only found out that she had a temperature of thirty-nine degrees after taking her temperature.Jessica couldn't hear what the doctor said clearly. She leaned against Terry and felt both cold and hot at the same time.The doctor prescribed an intravenous infusion. Terry led Jessica out of the consultation room. Seeing her feeling unwell, he found a spot in the waiting area and asked her to sit there. "Just sit here for now, while I go pay and collect the infusion bottle, okay?"Jessica nodded, her voice already hoarse, "Okay."Terry tenderly touched her face, and the warmth he felt on her cheek worried him."Be good, I'll be back soon.""Um."Jessica was dressed obediently, looking submissive, but lacking her usual flamboyance, she resembled a bullied rabbit.Terry paid the bill with his phone and then queued outside the pharmacy to collect the infusion bottle.Although it was late
Jessica fell ill suddenly, but her recovery was slow. It had been several days, and although her fever had subsided, she still didn't feel very comfortable.But no matter what, with Wendy around, Jessica's first day back at the Hall Group went smoothly.She had already reviewed a lot of materials before her return, and with Wendy's assistance, the Monday conference went better than Jessica had imagined."Ms. Hall."Coming out of the meeting room, Jessica finally breathed a sigh of relief.If she had been recognized as having amnesia on her first day back, it would have been all in vain.Fortunately, everything went smoothly.Hearing Wendy's voice, Jessica turned her head and smiled at her, saying, "Wendy."She had not fully recovered from her cold yet, her voice was still hoarse, and when she spoke, it was a bit dry. Jessica cleared her throat."Did you catch a cold?""It was almost done."Wendy nodded and
"Mr. Davison, Ms. Hall."Derek walked over directly, and Jessica was still a little surprised.She instinctively looked towards Stephanie, who was looking at them with a not-so-good expression on her face.Seeing her looking over, Stephanie also gave her a glare."Did Mr. Fairbank go on a blind date?"Jessica averted her gaze and glanced at Derek with a half-smile."It was arranged by the elders."Derek responded, glanced at Terry and Jessica, "I have something to do, so I'll leave first."Jessica had no relationship with Derek, so naturally she didn't try to keep him.Watching his back, Jessica raised an eyebrow and said, "Derek is not young anymore, why hasn't he gotten married?"Terry chuckled lightly when she heard her words, "Why suddenly interested in this?"Jessica shifted her gaze. "Curious."She was indeed curious."He had a woman.""Oh.""Woman" and "girlfriend" are dif
The bath, in the end, was naturally not taken together because Morgan's phone rang.Hearing the phone ring, Jessica quickly woke up and said, "Stop it, where is the phone!"Terry raised an eyebrow, picked her up and placed her back on the sofa, then handed her the phone from the table.Seeing the incoming call display, the two of them exchanged a glance. Terry relaxed his hand, and Jessica also straightened her sitting posture on the sofa.Afterwards, she answered the phone, "Dad?""Are you ready to rest?""Not yet, Dad. What's the matter?"Morgan usually doesn't have much going on, so it's usually around lunchtime when Jessica calls. If she calls at that time, it's likely that something is up.Jessica was not wrong, Morgan did have something to say, and he didn't beat around the bush with his daughter. "Today, the Sheppard family contacted me and said that Terry is a member of the Sheppard family. Terry wants to get engaged to
Hector was the only one who could do such a "filial" thing, going to the hospital late at night to visit his critically ill father.But who made the Sheppard family have a son named Hector, who made Hector the eldest son, and Maximo doted on him?However, after Maximo's condition worsened, he became increasingly displeased with his own son.Hector was rambling on there, expressing his dissatisfaction, but Maximo could sense Tanya's malicious intentions.After being docile for so many years, this venomous snake finally started to spit its venom."Chad, to be fair, had some self-awareness. He indeed was not capable of handling the position of general manager. We were actually planning to announce a personnel transfer in a few days, and I was going to have a talk with Chad. Since you said so, it seems like I don't need to talk to Chad anymore."Maximo's words left Hector dumbfounded, "Dad, are you going crazy? You have only one grandson, and if
Foster originally thought that his memory would never fully recover for the rest of his life, but a car accident in the third year after immigrating made him go through the gates of death again, but also returned all of his lost memories.Samuel was taken aback for a moment when he saw the look in her eyes and said, "Don't tell me you've lost your memory again."There were many wounds on his body. Foster tried to get up, but he found himself very heavy.Upon seeing the situation, Samuel also became afraid and quickly spoke, "Don't move, we finally got out of the ICU, don't go back again."Foster did not move anymore, he turned his head and looked outside the window of the ward.The weather today was very nice, just like the day eight years ago when he left.That day, he left carrying a family grudge, thinking that Hannah was just an accident.Eight years later, their revenge had been avenged, and Hannah had long since married.
On the day of Gemma's seventh birthday, Hannah and Kendall went to the park and set up a tent. They invited Georgia and brought a small grill. The three of them had a pleasant afternoon.Georgia also realized at that time that Gemma had actually been looking forward to going camping with them in a couple of days when she left.Today, we went camping, which fulfilled Gemma's unfinished wish.Gemma left, and the rest of the people had to continue living their lives.Kendall had originally taken a vacation for over a month, intending to return to the company only after the two of them got married and officially ended their leave.Now Gemma couldn't wait for his and Hannah's wedding, so he left. There was still nearly a month left, and Kendall asked Hannah to stay with Georgia on the South side for a while, as he was going abroad.He went abroad to meet the senior executives of the Harrington Group, who had been overseas all along. After that, h
After the cremation was completed, the staff asked Kendall to pick up the bones.Without waiting for Kendall to speak, she immediately refused.She couldn't understand this twisted "service". The loss of a loved one is already enough to make people feel desperate and miserable, and after cremation, they actually make people go and pick up the bones.Even though it was just symbolically picking one or two, it still remained incomprehensible.This was simply cruel and incomprehensible.The people in charge of the cemetery burial had already made arrangements. After leaving the funeral home, the group followed the car to the cemetery.The location of Gemma's grave was very good, and the photo on the tombstone showed her in her thirties, looking young, elegant, and beautiful.The urn was placed inside, the tomb was buried, and everything came to a complete end here.Hannah looked up at the distant sky with red eyes.The weat
Hannah really had no appetite and couldn't continue eating after a few bites.She lowered her head and drank the chicken soup that Gemma had specially instructed the aunt to stew before leaving. Tears fell directly into the soup.In fact, there wasn't much deep emotion between her and Gemma, but during this time, listening to her talk about many childhood things, now that she's gone, this sudden blow has made Hannah unable to bear it.She lowered her head, trying hard to calm her emotions, but the more she tried, the more uncomfortable she felt.Finally, she couldn't take it anymore and got up to go to the bathroom.Hannah stayed in the bathroom for a while before she came out.At that time, Georgia and Jaylen also came over.The sky had already turned completely dark when Georgia and Jaylen stepped in, guided by the moonlight."Where was your mother?"Georgia looked relatively calm and, looking at Kendall, asked a quest
Kendall quickly bought everything and brought it back.Recently, Gemma actually couldn't eat much. She relied on nutrient fluids and some soup to maintain the most basic nutrition.She was rare in the mood to eat something at the moment, although she didn't eat much, she tried a little bit of everything."This sausage isn't that delicious, why do so many children like to eat it?"Gemma was particularly puzzled. It smelled quite fragrant, but when she tasted it, it was really average.Hannah smiled and said, "Probably because parents didn't allow us to eat it often, so it tasted better.""Hannah's point does make some sense,"She said, sighing, "In fact, that's just how people are, no matter who they are or how old they are, there's always a bit of rebellion. The more others try to stop you from doing something, the more you want to do it."And she herself, wasn't she like this too?The group of people started walking bac
After Kendall returned to the South town, Gemma visibly became much happier.Kendall had everything arranged for work. After returning from this vacation, unless there was a necessary emergency, he wouldn't even answer a work phone call.Every day, Hannah and I would go to Gemma's place for meals. In the evening, when the sun was setting, the two of us would push Gemma for a walk outside the villa.Blaine did come to see Gemma once, probably after her serious illness. Gemma also let go of a lot and didn't feel the same way about Blaine as before.After so many years since their divorce, this is the first time they sat down to have a proper conversation.After Konnor's death, Kendall was unwilling to inherit everything from the Hawthorne family, but the shares he returned did not fall into his hands, nor did they fall into Jeffrey's hands.Nowadays, Jeffrey is just a nobody.Blaine's days were looking bright, but all was in Kendall's h
Kendall knew that he couldn't argue with Hannah, and if they continued to argue, they would definitely fight.He didn't speak anymore, took a few sips of hot drink, and then closed his eyes to take a nap.He didn't really have a good rest during this period of time. In order to rush over, he had been working overtime for five consecutive nights.The carriage was quiet with no one speaking. After the train got on the expressway, Hannah glanced at Kendall beside her.The person had already fallen asleep.She curled her lips slightly, knowing that this person was stubborn.Twenty minutes later, the car drove into the parking lot.Hannah drove the car well, while Kendall showed no signs of waking up.She took out her phone, checked the time, and it was already past eleven.Although Kendall was sleeping soundly, she didn't want to wake the person up, but she couldn't let him sleep in the car all the time, could she?Ha
Gemma woke up for the second time, and she stayed awake for a little longer, but not for too long. She managed to stay awake for about twenty minutes before falling asleep again.Hannah and Kendall stayed at the hospital until after 8 o'clock in the evening, when Gemma woke up again.When she woke up this time, she was feeling better, although she still couldn't speak very fluently, but much better than during the day.In the evening, Georgia brought dinner over, along with some soup.Kendall fed Gemma half a bowl of chicken soup and had a conversation with her before they left the hospital.It was very dark, and the two of them had already arrived home at nine o'clock.Hannah remembered Kendall's plan to return to LA tomorrow and couldn't help but ask, "What time is your flight tomorrow?""Around 7 o'clock in the morning, a bit early, I drove directly to the airport.""Okay."She took the cup from his hand and lowered h
When Hannah woke up, Kendall was already not in bed.Although I slept for a while, I didn't sleep well last night, and it is difficult to make up for it with a nap during the day.As soon as she got up, Hannah felt a bit dizzy. She picked up the phone beside her and realized it was already past twelve o'clock.She and Kendall didn't get home until 8 o'clock, and they only slept for four hours.I don't know how long Kendall slept.She sat on the bed for a while, and only got up and left the room after she woke up.Walking into the living room, Hannah saw Kendall on the phone.She took a glance, didn't walk over, and went to the countertop of the open kitchen to pour herself a glass of water. While drinking, she messaged Georgia, asking about Gemma's current situation that day.The message had been sent for a while, but Georgia did not reply.She had just looked up when Kendall had finished the call.The two of them
