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
Hannah found that Jessica had been fiddling with her phone on the sofa, and she thought that Jessica was still sad because of what Lucas said. Hannah began to comfort Jessica. "Hey, you don't need to feel sad. If you feel sad, they will feel happy... Wait, what are you doing, Jess?" "Tweeting!"' Jessica replied while glancing at Hannah. Jessica got up and refilled her glass and took the medicine from the table. "I took the medicine, and I'll go to sleep now." After that, she got up and went straight back to her room. Hannah was stunned. "Hold on..." Anyway, she would know what she had posted by checking Twitter. Hannah checked her Twitter and saw what Jessica had twittered. It was simple yet bloody. "I was sick yesterday. After waking up, I found myself becoming an evil person who forced others to commit suicide. But it was a little coincidental. When Cheek called me, I was having a fever and was not clearly conscious, so I r
"No, I got in trouble! Jessica, she posted a tweet!" Luna panicked. Trissy got up and walked to her. Trissy couldn't help but frown when she saw Luna's face go pale. "What did she tweet? Why are you so scared? We had a perfect play. Jessica can't prove her innocence even if..." Before she finished speaking, a cold male voice came from the door, "Even if?" Trissy trembled when she heard Lucas' words. "Mr. Thomas, are you here to visit Luna?" She tried to keep herself calm, but when she met Lucas' gaze, Trissy was afraid. "I'm going out for some fresh air!" After saying that, Trissy ran out of the ward as if she was escaping. If Lucas sent her abroad again, she couldn't come back for the rest of her life! Trissy wasn't that stupid. Max was dead, but she still had a few decades of a good life. Lucas did not pay attention to Trissy. He had just received a call from Vincent, saying that Luna and he hit the headlines again.
Hari was spilling the tea in a good mood. When he saw the compensation of thirty million dollars, he felt that both Lucas and Jessica were domineering. They were both wealthy. Lucas offered so much money, but Jessica refused. Hari had never discovered that Jessica was so interesting. Lucas didn't have a keen insight into people. That was what he was thinking in his heart, but when he saw Lucas, he could not help but say something. Then he caused trouble. When Hari came out of the boxing house, he bared his teeth in pain, but he still couldn't control his mouth. "To be honest, what were you thinking when you suddenly gave Jessica money and houses?" Lucas didn't handle this matter well. Lucas tilted his head and looked at him coldly. "I want to know what you were thinking tonight. If you want to go to the hospital, I'll send you there." Hari touched the spot where he had been punched. He chickened out and stopped teasing Lucas. He sai
Jessica smiled at Terry and ignored Hannah's question. She said to him, "Good morning." She was hungry when she woke up early in the morning. Since the breakfast was ready, Jessica didn't refuse. She walked to the dining table and sat down. "Thank you." Terry slightly raised his eyebrows and glanced at Jessica. He put a cup of coffee in front of her and raised his hand to touch her forehead. "Do you feel better?" The man's warm palm pressed against Jessica's forehead, and she felt a bit warm. She was looking at breakfast and she did not expect that Terry would make such a move. However, when Jessica realized it, he retracted his hand. Terry said and sat down. Hannah sat next to Jessica and couldn't help but snort. "Mr. Davison, do you really think that this is your home?" Terry glanced at Hannah, not minding the teasing in her words at all. "Didn't you tell me to suit myself?" Hannah didn't know what to say. She did no
Jessica's reaction made Trissy unable to make up her mind, but she also knew that Jessica was the best one to deal with this matter by deleting the things on Twitter. "Miss Hall, I know that Luna was lying. I won't deny it, but she has paid the price for her lie. She almost died yesterday. She did something stupid and as her sister, I am responsible for it. I am here to apologize on her behalf." Trissy said as she stepped back and bowed, "I'm sorry." Jessica and Trissy had lived together in the Thomas' house for three years. Trissy had never been so humble in front of Jessica. Jessica curled her lips, but she did not say a word. "When Luna is discharged from the hospital in two days, I will bring her to apologize to you." Trissy stopped and looked up at Jessica, waiting for her answer. Trissy's humble move piqued Jessica's curiosity. Jessica asked, "Miss Cheek, are you here only to apologize to me today?" "I came to ap
Jessica got up early today, and it was not yet time for work when she arrived at the company. Wendy had yet to come. There were already a lot of documents on Jessica's desk. They were probably from yesterday's work. Jessica made herself a cup of coffee, took a document, and slowly read it. She had recovered, so she was in a better mood. Jessica had only sat down for five minutes when Wendy arrived. "Miss Hall, do you feel well?" Jessica glanced at her. "Much better. Has the bidding plan for the land in the north of LA been confirmed?" Wendy nodded. "Not yet. Mr. Bell said that you were in charge of this project. You have to take a look first." Jessica snorted and said, "Megan changes quite fast." Two months ago, he mocked her for being new to the company, but now, he trusted her so much. Wendy nodded, "That's not all. Mr. Bella also wanted adopt your plan on Spring Valley Village." Jessica smiled. "I see.
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
