Remarriage: His Billionaire Ex-wife Chapter 9
"Jessica, do you think we should have a concert? We didn't have enough fun yesterday!" Hannah called Jessica in the morning and told her the big news. "The whole upper—class social circle is going to be shocked when you do that. We'd better stay low—key," Jessica said smilingly, and then walked into the bathroom to wash up. "I am the queen! Why should I stay low—key!" Hannah snorted and said, "I'll leave you be. Time for breakfast now." Jessica hung up the phone. She was somewhat distracted when she looked into the mirror. Jessica recalled how she and Lucas got married. Their first night together was an accident. After that, Lucas offered to marry Jessica. Jessica knew that Lucas felt sorry and his offer only served as a remedy. After that, Jessica tried to tell Lucas about her family background more than once, but Lucas always said he didn't care. He just wanted to get back to work. Later, Jessica accidentally heard Olivia complain to Rebecca about how low—born Jessica w

Jessica attended the banquet, mainly hoping to get familiar with the upper—class society of Los Angeles. After all, she was now the general manager of the Hall Group rather than Lucas' wife. Unlike the ladies, the businessmen were more concerned about whether Jessica had a say in their cooperation with the Hall Group. For that reason, a lot of people went to greet Jessica. Too many business chats made Jessica tired. Thus, Jessica found an excuse to end the conversation with a man and made her way to the dining area. Jessica put down her red wine and took a glass of juice. When she looked up, she saw Olivia and her girl friends storming over. "Jessica, you are far from qualified to be here. Did you manage to come in by hooking up with a playboy?" Looking at Olivia, Jessica smiled. "If you don't know what's the right thing to say, you should just go back to school. Learn harder this time so that you won't disgrace your family's fame again." "How dare you insult me! Just

The red wine trickled down from Olivia's long hair as she screamed in disbelief. However, Jessica did not intend to stop there. Jessica picked up another glass of red wine, intending to throw it at Olivia again. Yet when Jessica was about to make a move, Lucas suddenly grabbed her hand. "That's enough, Jessica!" "I don't think so." Jessica took the glass with her other hand and then splashed Olivia's face directly. Olivia's white dress was soiled with red wine. And then she threw a check in Olivia's face and said, "It's just a 100,000—dollar dress. Here it is 200,000 dollars. You can get two." With that, Jessica left with Hannah. When Olivia finally came back to her senses, she nearly blew up. Olivia wanted to catch up with Jessica, but Lucas stopped her. "Haven't you had enough?" Lucas said coldly. "Jessica seemed to be wearing the earrings from 'the Moon and the Sun' series," said a guest. "So she did. Her bracelet and her earrings come in a set. The series is limite

In the evening, Jessica and Wendy arrived at the restaurant. Just as she walked through the doors of the restaurant, Jessica saw a familiar figure next to a pillar in the lobby of the restaurant. Olivia? Jessica raised her eyebrows as the elevator doors opened, and the figure hurriedly stepped into the elevator. When Jessica reached the room on the fourth floor, she heard that Watson was talking to someone on the phone. Jessica seemed to have heard Watson mention "Miss Thomas". Jessica nodded at Wendy. Wendy stepped forward and pushed open the door. She greeted Watson. "Hello, Mr. Borka." Watson hurriedly hung up the phone and turned around. He gave Jessica a meaningful look. Then he walked over with a polite smile on his face. "Jessica, Megan has been bragging about how competent you are to me all the time. Please take a seat. The red wine was already decanted. Please give it a try." "Thank you very much for your invitation. See this as a sincere wish for a satisfyi

Those members of the MC club took Jessica to a pub. Jessica didn't feel like speaking. She couldn't get rid of them anyway. Seeing how calm Jessica was, the man couldn't help but say, "You are bold indeed." Then, the man brought over a glass of whiskey and said to Jessica, "I won't make things too difficult for you. Drink it all and you may leave." "What if I refuse?" Jessica looked at the whiskey and then at the man. "In that case, you won't be able to leave." The man clenched his fists, and Jessica heard some clicks. Jessica took over the glass and drank all the whiskey in one gulp. Then she turned the glass upside down and looked up at the man. "I'm done here. Can I leave now?" The man shrugged and raised his chin to look at the door. "As you wish, if you still have any strength to move." Jessica soon felt as if the strength in her body had been drained away, she could only hold on to the wall and barely walk to the couch and sit down, knowing that something must hav

"Miss Hall, may I ask why you chose the Puth Corporation? After all, we are not yet as qualified and recognized as the Borka Group in real estate industry," said Brian Larson, CEO of the Puth Corporation. He felt quite flattered. When Brian knew that the Hall Group intended to work with the Puth Corporation, he even rushed back to Los Angeles from California to meet with Jessica. "Mr. Larson, are you saying that you don't have faith in your own company?" Jessica raised her eyebrows and asked. Brian froze for a few seconds before he burst out laughing. He then said, "I believe we'll have a pleasant cooperation, Miss Hall." After Brian left, Jessica was in a very good mood. Megan and Watson tried to make things difficult for Jessica, yet they forgot that Jessica was no pushover. Shortly afterward, Megan learned that Jessica had replaced the Borka Group, so he called Jessica at once. "We have been working with the Borka Group for many years. How could you change that?" "I

Given that Jessica nearly got into trouble after having dinner with Watson from the Borka Group, Jessica decided to buy her own car. That could save a lot of trouble. Early in the morning, Jessica and Hannah arrived at Auto Mall. Jessica had decided on her future car earlier. She went to the mall for a trial. If nothing went wrong, she would just fulfill the payment. "This one will do." Jessica nodded to the salesperson. With that, the salesperson hurried to get the receipt ready. Jessica and Hannah had just sat down when they saw Lia Rowse walking over. She was Olivia's bestie. "Is your friend looking for a car here, Miss Hall?" Lia greeted Jessica, seemingly politely. Jessica knew that Lia was in Olivia's league. She didn't feel like talking to Lia, so she only nodded. "What a coincidence! I'm here looking for a car, too. Which one did you pick, Miss Hall?" At that time, the salesperson came back with the settled receipt and answered on Jessica's behalf, "Miss Hall o

Jessica, Hannah, and their friends brought a great deal of attention to Mona's new nightclub through their performance. They attracted a lot of customers within a short time. Hari was curious about Mona's nightclub as well. So he left LURE for Cloud Top. Lucas had to follow Hari as well. Jessica drew their attention once the two of them had just entered Cloud Top. She was on the stage. Jessica wore a white shirt and a pair of denim pants. Her outfit revealed her S—line figure perfectly. The gull—wing eyeliner and SUQQU's new eye shadow made Jessica look attractively aloof. A lot of passionate customers were shaking their bodies at Jessica's drum beats. This was the second time Lucas saw Jessica on the stage. And at that moment, Jessica was like a singer performing at the Super Bowl, impressing the entire audience with her charisma. Lucas realized that he wanted to learn more about Jessica when seeing this side of her. But Lucas then recalled that they had already div

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 little boy licked his lips while watching from a distance.Jessica found it amusing and waved at the little boy, saying, "Come here."The little boy obediently ran over holding the football and said, "Miss Pretty.""Wanna eat ice cream, huh?"The little boy nodded and then shook his head. "No."Although he said "no", his eyes betrayed him.Jessica clicked her tongue and asked again, "You sure?"The little boy didn't say anything this time, only swallowing hard.Jessica pointed to Lucas beside her and said, "If

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
