Lucas remembered that when those reporters ran over to besiege him and Luna, Jessica was standing there, looking at him coldly with her lips twitched.
Jessica was as if watching a farce. Lucas hated that look as it was full of ridicule and contempt. Recalling that look in her eyes, Lucas felt a little agitated. He felt very uncomfortable as if there was a soft thorn in his heart that could not be found, and he couldn't ignore it either. He disliked this feeling very much. Lucas took a cigarette, leaned against the window, and slowly lit it. The smell of nicotine calmed him down a little, but it didn't last for too long. He put out the half—smoked cigarette and drove away from the hotel. The car sped away into the distance. However, Lucas felt that something went wrong with the car after a while. His golden eyes turned cold. He dropped speed and pulled up by the roadside. He got out of the car and loJessica finished speaking and turned to look at Terry. "Let's go. I'm hungry. I want to eat some snacks." Terry also remembered what happened that night and instantly understood Jessica's intention of asking him to drive back. "My future girlfriend is quite vengeful," wondered Terry. However, he liked it. It was good to discriminate between love and hate. Being revengeful would have nothing to lose. Terry glanced at Lucas, and before he left, he added, "Mr. Thomas, I'm sorry. My future girlfriend doesn't want to give you a ride. We are leaving now." The car slowly pulled out. Jessica looked at Lucas in the rear mirror and felt much better. She was very vengeful and remembered everything that happened in the past. Lucas stood there, watching the car gradually disappear into the distance. He felt that the cigarette in his mouth was tasteless. They did it on purpose. But even though he knew it, he still coul
After what had happened tonight, Jessica was exhausted, so she did not speak. Terry didn't say anything more, and the car quieted down. The car passed by a downtown area. Terry asked, "Want something to eat?" Jessica tilted her head and glanced outside. "Not in the mood. Maybe next time." Now, she only wanted to go home to take a hot bath and have a good sleep. By the time the car stopped by the roadside of Jessica's apartment, it was already past eleven at night. Jessica unfastened her seat belt and said to Terry. "Thank you for tonight. You don't have to get off the car and see me off." He was just about to get off. Upon hearing her words, Terry stopped. He tapped on the steering wheel and looked at her through the half—open window. "Jessica, when is next time?" Jessica was just about to turn around. She was slightly stunned when she heard this. Then she realized what he was saying and smiled. "Well, that depen
LURE Club was very exquisitely—decorated. Hari could no longer hear the loud music when he walked to the second flower. As a frequent visitor of LURE, Hari was familiar with all the private rooms. He soon went to T1 and knocked on the door. "I'm coming in." Then he pushed the door open and entered. Hari was amused when he saw the wine on the table. "That's new to me. I never knew you would drink to forget!" Lucas was cold and indifferent. Few could influence him. Hari had known him for so many years, but he had never seen him drown his sorrows in alcohol. There were two bottles of red wine on the table, and Lucas was holding a glass in his hand. Hari knew that something had happened to Lucas. Hari was amused by him. But he tried his best to keep his smile back. He sat down beside Lucas. "Tell me, which lady did this to you?" Lucas looked at him coldly. After a while, he said, "Am I a jerk to Jessica?" Hearing his
What Hari said caused a throb in Lucas' heart. Lucas tried to say something to refute but found that he couldn't refute anything. Deep down, Lucas never felt sorry for Jessica. Although he was the one who proposed the marriage, he wouldn't have married her if Jessica hadn't played tricks the other night. Lucas never thought he did anything wrong. Everything that happened next originated from the other night. If Jessica hadn't set a trap for Lucas, Lucas would never have thought about marrying her. Then, Jessica didn't have to marry Lucas. Lucas closed his eyes slightly. "She was the plotter the other night." Hari still had a bunch of righteous words to scold Lucas. The chance was rare, so Hari had to take it. Yet what Lucas had just said stopped Hari from going on. Suddenly, a guess flashed into Hari's mind, "Have you ever thought that Jessica might also have been the victim that night?" Hari didn't look reliable, yet h
Terry looked at Lucas. Terry's face didn't have the playful look he usually had. Terry's brown eyes were cold. "Lucas, what do you make of a duel?" Lucas had been annoying Terry for a long time. Lucas sneered. "Where?" There was a kind of frustration that Lucas couldn't let out. Now that Terry had come over, Lucas didn't want to hold himself back anymore. "Come with me." Terry glanced at Lucas, snorted, and turned around. Hari looked at Terry's back and hurried to turn to Lucas, "Lucas, you are joking, right?" The two of them were both grown—ups. How could they just get into a fight so easily? Lucas didn't feel like talking to Hari. He pulled Hari over and said, "Drive and follow him." Hari chuckled at what Lucas said. "So, I see you do remember that you are drunk, right?" Lucas kicked Hari. Hari was caught off guard and almost fell to the ground. After standing firm, he gritted his teeth and
Lucas did drink a lot, but his mind was still sober. Hari's words pissed Lucas off. Lucas' being drunk had nothing to do with Jessica. And as for Terry, he was so hilarious. He was such a notorious playboy, yet he fell for Jessica. Lucas pushed Hari away, "Get lost. Don't touch me." After that, Lucas looked at Terry again. "It's a pity. Jessica likes me, not you." Terry stood in the cold wind for a while. His mind got much clearer. Terry looked at Lucas and sneered. Terry said, "Yes, but since you lost her, she is no longer your wife. In the future, she will be my wife!" When Terry finished speaking, he looked at Lucas for a while and suddenly felt that he didn't have to come to Lucas again. The more disappointing Lucas was, the better. Jessica wasn't the kind of woman who would look back, especially when the man in her past was just a jerk. The worse Lucas was, the better Terry would look. Thinking of that, Terry suddenly chuckled. "Lucas, I hope that you can
Early in the morning, Justin was sitting in the hall with a cold face. Olivia and the others went downstairs and saw Justin like that. All of them were startled. Lucas drank a lot of wine last night and had a fight with Terry. When he received a call from the Thomas villa, he was still asleep. The butler said on the other end that Justin asked Lucas to return to the villa right away. Lucas sat up. "I see." Just as Lucas spoke, the pain in the corner of his mouth reminded him of last night. Lucas turned on his phone. Both Luna and Trissy sent him a message. It was half an hour ago. Lucas realized that something went wrong. He logged in to Twitter, and someone posted a video about Jessica last night. How dared anyone do that? Lucas called Vincent while packing up. Just as Vincent was about to call Lucas to tell him about the trending topic, he received a call from Lucas. It seemed that Lucas already knew about that. Vincent answered the call carefully. "Mr. Thomas?
The two Miss—Cheeks were in relationships with the two brothers of their Thomas family. Back then, Luna saved Lucas and then fell into a coma. Lucas wanted to marry Luna, yet Justin strongly opposed it. In the end, both of them compromised. Trissy married Max while Luna was sent abroad for treatment, which was paid for by the Thomas family. Although Justin didn't like Trissy, Trissy was better than Luna, who was in a coma. Thus, Justin took Trissy in, though reluctantly. Later, Jessica married into the Thomas family as a commoner, which was even worse than Trissy. Justin naturally placed all his disgust on Jessica. Justin hated Jessica, but that didn't mean he liked Luna. Justin's eldest grandson had already married a useless wife, and Justin didn't want Lucas to marry another wife who didn't belong to a proper family! "That's right. Jessica and Lucas are divorced. Why is she causing so much trouble?" Olivia had forgotten about the lesson Jessica taught her. Now th
The driver happened to be at home today and was being escorted out by another police officer.He, on the other hand, didn't cry and shout like his wife did, even when he was being escorted out, he kept his head down, as if he was afraid of being too embarrassed in front of the neighbors.The wife, who had been crying and complaining incessantly, suddenly stopped shouting. The man, as if sensing something, glanced inside the car and when he saw Jessica, his face immediately turned pale.That woman...Even though almost a year had passed, the man still recognized the beautiful woman at first sight.As the saying goes, if you have done no wrong, you need not fear the knock of a ghost at the door.After that day, the man had several nightmares in a row, but as time went by, he gradually forgot about them.I didn't expect that after a year, the other party would come to my door with the police.The man lowered his head, forced a bitter smile, and muttered, "Retribution! Retribution!"If th
Suddenly, there was a "drip" sound outside the door, and Jessica knew that Terry had come back. She quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.Terry pushed the door open and entered the room. Jessica was still on the couch, with her head tilted back, smiling at him. "You're back so soon?" she said.Terry walked over and only then did he see that Jessica's eyes were a little red.He put down the things he was holding in his hands and bent his body halfway in front of Jessica. He held her face with both hands and said, "Did you cry secretly?""No way."He looked at her and suddenly raised his head to kiss her on the eyes.Jessica trembled for a moment, and the emotions in her heart instantly magnified. She fell into his arms and hugged him, saying, "I don't know why, but it feels like I haven't seen you guys for a long time."Before today, she didn't remember anything. The missing memories of over twenty years made her silent when facing the past.If she couldn't remembe
Upon hearing his words, Jessica inexplicably choked up, "What if it wasn't?""No if."He spoke and tightly held her hand.Jessica blinked her eyes and said, "I was a little hungry.""I went to buy ravioli for you.""Okay."Jessica let go of her hand and leaned back on the sofa, looking at him as he touched his stomach and asked, "Is the little one okay?"Terry also touched her abdomen, “It's fine."It has been over four months, almost five months, and Jessica's belly is still not very noticeable.But knowing that there was a life growing inside, I placed my hand on it, even though I couldn't feel anything, a wave of tenderness still surged in my heart.Terry glanced at her and said, "Behave, I will go buy you some food.""I knew."It was almost 8 o'clock now. After lunch, both Jessica and Terry hadn't eaten anything. At this time, they should have been hungry.Terry took his phone and said, "I will go downstairs to buy some food.""Go."She was not a child, so there was no need to wat
Jessica was still asleep, with an oxygen tube inserted in her nose, looking as if she was sleeping.Terry walked over and held her hand, then followed the gurney back to the regular ward.The hospital in this town was simple, and there weren't many people in the inpatient department. Jessica was assigned to a separate ward.The nurse gave Terry a few instructions and then left, leaving the ward filled with the sound of machines.Jessica's forehead was scratched, and it bled, but the bleeding was not excessive, and the wound quickly coagulated.Terry used a wet tissue to wipe away the bloodstain, and just as he threw away the tissue, his phone started vibrating.It was an unfamiliar number.But Terry still remembered the incident with the police. He picked up his phone and stood in front of the window by the door, watching Jessica inside, while answering the call, "Mr. Policeman?""It was me. Is Mrs. Davison alright?""Having just recovered from shock, the doctor said there was no majo
Halfway through the interrogation, Terry received a message from Jessica and he immediately interrupted the officer in front of him, saying, "Sorry, I have to go back, my wife is in danger."The police officer taking the statement also had some difficulty processing it, “Your wife..."Terry didn't have time to think about it, Jessica wouldn't easily send such a message again, she sent a distress signal, the situation must be very bad.Seeing Terry get up and run, the police officer who was taking the statement quickly chased after him, saying, "Mr. Davison, if your wife is in danger, we can send help..."Terry didn't wait for him to finish, “Well, thank you, officer! I'm going back first!"The car stopped at the entrance of the police station, Terry turned the car out of the road, and as soon as the car got on the main road, he stepped on the accelerator.The car drove away all of a sudden, at a very high speed. When the police ran out, Terry's car had already disappeared.Terry almos
The sunlight at twelve o'clock was even more intense. Eamon was scolded by Jessica, and although he had the intention to run away, he lacked the courage to do so. Who knew when Jessica would come out of the house.He was tied to a tree, although most of the sunlight was blocked by the leaves, it was still very hot at noon, and Eamon was suffering as his body still hurt from the several places Jessica had just hit him.Jessica and Terry were leisurely eating lunch inside the house, eating to their heart's content. It was only after they had finished eating that Jessica took out her phone and called the police.The police took more than twenty minutes to arrive, and when Eamon heard the sound of the police siren, he instinctively trembled.Terry glanced at him and went out to meet the police, “Hello, I am the husband of the person who made the report."Terry made a simple self-introduction, “My wife got scared by a thief, which caused her to have a miscarriage. She is currently resting
Eamon realized it and instinctively wanted to run, but Jessica also reacted quickly, reaching out and smashing the coconut she had just taken a few sips of onto him.Terry, who was standing by, immediately dropped what he was holding and ran up to grab the tattered oil-paper umbrella by the door. He forcefully smashed it onto Eamon's ankle, causing him to scream in pain, "Ah!"Eamon fell directly from the wall, and he was about to resist as soon as he got up, but unfortunately Terry had a very solid oil-paper umbrella in his hand, and he was hit again as soon as he got up.After being hit more than ten times, Eamon couldn't bear it and quickly begged for mercy, saying, "Please stop hitting me! I was wrong!"Terry turned around and glanced at Jessica, saying, "Bring the rope."Jessica turned and entered the small room next to her, pulling out the hemp rope from under the bed.Eamon, who fell to the ground, attempted to escape. Terry, seeing that he was being dishonest, fiercely struck
Denzel arrived at the hospital and remained unconscious. That night, he was transferred to the ICU.It had been several days since Jessica heard the news when she and Terry arrived in Tonopah.It was almost June, and as soon as Jessica got off the plane, she felt a wave of heat.Plus, back in January, Eamon came over causing trouble, and Jessica was a bit concerned about the condition of the yard.The temperature today was a bit high, and Terry was worried that Jessica couldn't handle it, so he didn't go over there immediately after coming out of the airport.The two of them stayed in the city for the whole night and only took the car over early the next morning.There weren't many households in the village to begin with, and it seems that the big yellow dog that used to chase after Jessica is now gone.Jessica and Terry asked the neighbor next door and found out that there was an old man in the village who fell while picking vegetables in the vegetable field more than three months ag
Denzel had been talking to Lucas all along, and in the few short seconds before the elevator arrived, there were only Denzel's childish voice and Lucas's occasional "uh-huh".The elevator came quite fast, and Jessica and Terry were the first to enter.There were no other people inside the elevator, only the five of them.Jessica and Terry were in the right corner, while their family of three was in the left corner.Terry held Jessica's hand, lowered his head to look at her, and the two exchanged a glance, only to smile slightly and never speak.After about five or six seconds, the elevator finally reached the first floor.Jessica and Terry didn't move, watching as Lucas and the other two exited the elevator. Only then did Terry say, "Let's go."Jessica glanced at him, and both of them instinctively slowed down their pace. The family of three in front of them gradually moved further away, until they were about ten meters apart. It was only then that Jessica spoke, "Are he and Susie pla
