  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

      The car slowly drove out of the hospital. Jessica looked at the reporters in the rearview mirror and frowned.  When Trissy rushed over to pull her, Jessica was awakened. She had heard what Trissy said.  Was Trissy crazy?  Trissy even made up stories to blacken Jessica's name.  Didn't Trissy know what Jessica said to Luna? She was there when Jessica said what she said.  Seeing Jessica in silence, Terry turned to look at her and asked, "You are not happy, are you?"  Jessica glanced at Terry, but she did not speak.  Terry nodded slightly. He tapped the steering wheel with his index finger and did not speak again.  The red light ahead turned green. Terry glanced at Jessica again before starting the car again.  The gossip about Luna and Lucas had just been removed when Luna's suicide became a trending topic again. Even Vincent didn't know what to do.  Moreover, what Trissy had said to Jessica at the hospital was undoubtedly directly related to Luna's suicide.  The netizens all

      With that, Jessica paused for a moment. "What did he say to you?"  "Nothing too important. He just told me to take good care of you since you had a cold and a fever. He also told me that you didn't eat anything for a day. He then left."  Hannah said, remembering why she had come back. "By the way, what's that Internet gossip about? What does Luna have to do with you?"  "What does Luna's suicide have to do with me?"  Jessica threw the question back to Hannah.  As Jessica spoke, she reached out to take tissue from the side and wiped her lips before continuing, "What did the netizens say about me?"  Though Jessica hadn't read the comments on the Internet, she knew those netizens must be scolding her, based on what Trissy had said.  When Hannah heard what Jessica said, she got blown up again. "I'm so angry! Everyone on the Internet said that you forced Luna to commit suicide!"  "In that case, I'm so capable." Jessica sneered.  Hannah threw her phone away. "They're so mean!"  J

      This matter had caused a great stir on the Internet. The audience who had once been obsessed with the Kardashian family even hoped that the Thomas family could also be on the TV so that they could watch the show.  Now, everyone on Twitter knew that Lucas married Jessica was waiting for Luna to come back.  However, the agreement between the Cheek family and the Thomas family was only known to the two families, and outsiders did not know.  Luna used Jessica to spark public discussion, obviously to prevent being forced to go abroad again.  Luna's action could not only make Lucas feel sorry for her but also make him blame Jessica. Moreover, the Thomas family would know that Luna would return openly. It was such a perfect plan.  The reason why Luna's plan succeeded was that Lucas couldn't see the whole picture.  He even called Vincent over to the office and planned to compensate Jessica for the divorce.  When Vincent heard Lucas' order, his exp

      Lucas did not answer her question. "You are right. We are divorced. From now on, we have nothing to do with each other. I don't want these things to happen again."  "If I remember correctly, the villa in Beverly Hills should be worth six million dollars, right? The house in South Pasadena should be worth more than four million dollars. As for the three percent of your assets, it should be worth twenty million. Mr. Thomas, you are so generous."  It was not the first time Lucas had seen Jessica smile, but her current smile made him feel a little uncomfortable.  He frowned and said, "I know you are upset."  The smile on Jessica's face instantly disappeared. She looked up at him coldly. "You know that I am upset. Do you know why I am upset?"  Lucas looked at her and asked, "Why?"  "Because even if I kept a dog for the past three years, it would shake its tail at me to make me happy. What about you, Lucas? It has been three years. Other than lying to

    Jessica was strolling in the garden downstairs of the hospital, where a young mother was playing soccer with a little boy.The football rolled up to her. Jessica picked it up and watched as the little boy ran over."Miss Pretty."What a sweet little boy! Calling her pretty though it was the first time they met.Jessica raised a brow. "Aren't you a cutie pie?"She spoke as she handed the football back to the little boy.Just then, Lucas returned with an ice cream in his hand.

    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
