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 andLucas 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
Jessica slept until nearly 10 a.m. For someone as self—disciplined as Jessica, that rarely happened. Jessica struggled up, feeling her body a little hotter than usual, and her head ached as well. She took out an electronic thermometer from the drawer and checked her body temperature. As assumed, she had a fever. Jessica sent a message to Wendy. After that, she covered herself with a blanket and fell asleep again. Probably because Jessica was sick, she dreamed of her past. For example, in high school, a few street gangs once stopped Jessica. One of them attacked her and she thus fainted. Later, a schoolboy saved Jessica. In her dream, Jessica saw a boy run over and hug her. Then she dreamed that she was in the hospital with Morgan and May by her side. The nurse said that the boy who sent Jessica to the hospital did not leave any personal information. The only thing he left was a baseball jacket. The jacket was stained with blood. When May washed it, she found a note
The cold Jessica caught was overwhelming. Jessica felt so unwell and dizzy. Jessica had a bowl of corn soup and said to Terry, "Thank you." Probably due to the fever, Jessica's pale face blushed. Terry clicked his tongue and raised his hand to rub Jessica's head. "You are more than welcome. Be good and let's go to the hospital." Jessica had a fever and her body temperature was thus high. Terry's palm fell on her forehead and she could feel the gap between their body temperatures. Jessica shook her head stubbornly. "I'm not going to the hospital." Terry suddenly leaned over, his pair of almond eyes staring straight at Jessica. He looked at her with a sly smile. "Make a choice between me carrying you and you following me." The two of them gazed at each other for a few seconds, and finally, Jessica gave up. She was so bunged up that she even shed tears. She looked somehow weaker. "I'll get a coat." Terry then stood up, lifted his eyelids, and looked at Jessica with
After a few minutes, Terry found that Jessica didn't move at all. He lowered his head and said, "Jessica?" That was when Terry realized that Jessica had fallen asleep. It was already their turn to get the medicine. Yet Terry was holding Jessica with both his hands. Thus, he couldn't get the medicine by himself. Terry looked around and walked to two young women not far away with Jessica in his arms. "Excuse me. My girlfriend is asleep now, so I can't get the medicine. Would you please get the medicine for us?" The two women had been watching Terry and Jessica for a long time. Just now, they were secretly discussing how sweet a couple they were. They nodded at once when Terry asked them for help. One of the women took the medicine back and could not help but glance at Jessica, who buried her head in Terry's arms. Probably because Jessica had fallen asleep, most of her face was exposed. Although only half of her face could be seen, people could still tell that it was a pret
