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 depenLURE 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
Lucas raised his head to meet Justin's gaze and said indifferently, "I was the one who told Jessica that I used her. She was angry and wanted to take revenge on me. It's normal." Lucas spoke lightly, but Justin was furious. Justin looked at his favorite grandson in disbelief. "Lucas, can you repeat that?" Lucas raised his hand and rubbed his temples. He didn't sleep well last night and was woken up early in the morning. His head hurt a little. "You didn't hear me wrong. I am the cause." Lucas paused and said, "By the way, you said that if Luna wakes up, you will let me marry her. Now she wakes up, Grandpa, it is time for you to fulfill your promise." "Bang!" Justin was so angry that he smashed the vase on the desk directly at Lucas. "Get lost, get lost! Out!" Lucas looked at Justin, whose face was still cold and expressionless. "Grandpa, don't be angry. It won't be good if your blood pressure rises. I'm going back to work. I'll get someone to handle the news online."
Lucas felt that what Vincent had got was ridiculous. Lucas was drugged that night. When his mind was not so clear, he once asked her why she did that. Lucas remembered that she said she liked him and thus wanted him. But now the results of the investigation said that the hotel surveillance was broken that night, but some witnesses saw that Jessica was also drugged. If this was true, then in those three years, why didn't Jessica explain it to Lucas? That was so absurd! Lucas put on a grim face. A storm was coming. Lucas dialed the intercom. "Come in!" Lucas then hung up the phone. Vincent held the receiver and he had a throb in his heart. Vincent knew Lucas was going to be furious! But Vincent had to face Lucas' rage. What were secretaries for? Vincent took a deep breath, then got up and walked to Lucas' office. "Mr. Thomas?" "Are you kidding me with the results of your investigation, Vincent?" Vincent looked up and saw Lucas sitting on the office chair
Julie looked up and said, "I will go and have a look."She turned around and ran over to Hannah's side, as she spoke.Just now, Hannah saw that there were crabs in the cage and curiously asked Jessica, "Will there be crabs in the cracks of these stones?"Julie hadn't really thought about it, but don't crabs usually like to hide in crevices in shallow water? So she casually replied, "Sure, if you want to catch one, go down and take a look for yourself."Hannah really rolled up her pants, went down the stream, and searched for crabs among the gaps in the rocks.The stream was clear, you could see to the bottom at a glance.Hannah didn't take long to find a crab. She was planning to catch it and show off to Jessica, but the crab ran too fast. She kept finding several others, but they all managed to escape.This time she saw a quite big one, and didn't want to let the crab just run away like that, so she shouted for Jessica.Julie
Hannah was curious about everything, so when she saw that bamboo house, she pulled Julie and asked her all sorts of questions.Terry walked alongside Morgan and May, both of whom were quite advanced in age. Although the mountain was not very high and not difficult to climb, it still required physical effort, and the two of them fell behind by quite a bit.When they arrived in front of the bamboo house, Jessica and Hannah were already not inside the bamboo house.Terry poured the leftover tea for May and Morgan and pointed to the door of the bamboo house, saying, "Uncle, Aunt, Jessica said that Mr. Garrison found her in front of this bamboo house."Upon hearing Terry's words, Morgan's hand holding the teacup trembled.He also didn't care about drinking water anymore, and got up and walked to the front of the bamboo house.Just now they came up from the mountain and saw only a bamboo house amidst the lush greenery. There was a stream flowing n
I have to say, the three questions that Hannah asked in a row were the same questions that Morgan and May were concerned about.Jessica lost her memory, and they all didn't want to put pressure on her.They only have one precious daughter. When they first learned about Jessica's accident, both of them were devastated. Now that they have finally found her, Morgan and May naturally want to bring Jessica back home.Just now, Jessica and Terry walked in, talking and laughing. Both of them felt quite emotional inside.At this moment, the person most eager to have Jessica return should be Terry, and the person most anxious for Jessica to regain her memory is also Terry.But Terry seemed to have no worries about these issues. As parents, they couldn't bear to see Jessica struggling."It's true that this place was a bit poor, but Jessica lived happily and was doing fine."May sighed and said, "It's true, Jessica was definitely raised on a ped
Terry was clearly puzzled, "Will there be wild rabbits and pheasants on this mountain?"This side is all small hills, they are called mountains, but the altitude is not high, only about one or two hundred meters. It takes about three hours to go up from the foot of the mountain to the top slowly, and it takes a little over an hour to go up quickly.More than twenty years ago, it was not uncommon to see wild pheasants and wild rabbits. Given the current ecological environment, it is indeed quite unexpected to still have wild pheasants and wild rabbits.Julie looked at him and smiled, "What Roberto said, anyway, those who run in the mountains, nameless and faceless, what are they if not wild chickens and hares?""That's right."Terry thought that Roberto was indeed quite interesting. You said he was a bad person, but he didn't hesitate to save Jessica. You say he is a good person, but he is actually very "carefree".The two of them crossed the
Terry paused for a moment, watching Jessica's figure disappear. It was only then that he noticed Roberto lying on the lounge chair about ten meters ahead.At that moment, the sun was scorching hot, and Roberto covered his face with a straw hat to shield it from the direct sunlight.Julie walked over and looked at the sun hat on Roberto's face, raising an eyebrow and shaking her ponytail. She took a few steps forward and pulled the fishing line hard.Feeling the fishing rod in his hand move, Roberto quickly sat up from the lounge chair."Old man, there was a fish on the hook!"Roberto saw her and snorted, "What are you here for?""I saw you fishing!"Roberto scoffed, "It was you who pulled the fishing line just now, right?""Don't accuse me wrongly, I didn't do it."Julie didn't admit it.Roberto heard the commotion from Terry's side, turned his head and saw Terry throwing a bamboo cage into the stream. He instinct
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
