 "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.

      "I'm also wondering what you saw in Jessica, Mr. Davison. Are you blind?"  Lucas questioned back when Hari hurriedly nudged him.  Lucas turned around, feeling quite annoyed, only to see Jessica coming back toward the nightclub. Lucas couldn't help but frown.  Jessica returned because she forgot some of her belongings at Mona's place. Thus, she returned to get her stuff back. She then happened to hear what Lucas said about her.  The moment Jessica heard what Lucas said, she felt a sting in her chest.  In their three—year marriage, Jessica believed she had done a great job as Mrs. Thomas, even though the Thomas family never stopped picking on her.  Soon Jessica pulled herself together. She walked into the nightclub with her face unchanged.  Terry then chuckled. "Everyone has their own taste. The way I see it, Miss Hall is excellent. Hopefully, she will be the future Mrs. Davison."  With that, Terry bowed slightly at Lucas and Hari before he left.  Seeing Terry driving off, Ha

Her eyes couldn't open, and she kept yawning as she opened the door.Georgia was very puzzled when she saw her like this, "I let you go to bed before ten o'clock last night, why are you still so tired?"Hannah raised her hand and yawned, feeling guilty: "I went to bed after 11 o'clock, and I even woke up in the middle."Georgia sighed and said, "Go wash your face and brush your teeth, the makeup artist has arrived."Hannah was pushed into the bathroom and stood in front of the mirror for a while before she started washing her face and brushing her teeth.Cold water splashed onto her face, and after coming out of the bathroom, she felt much more awake, but the drowsiness was still irresistible.The makeup artist and cameraman had arrived, and they were ju

Unable to resist, she pushed him lightly and said, "It's a bit hot."Upon hearing her words, Kendall placed her back on the bed and asked, "Did you tell Jaylen and them?"Hannah shook her head and said, "No, you're the dad, so of course I have to tell you first."She said, pausing for a moment, "I will tell them at dinner tonight.""Okay."Kendall looked down at her belly, but this month she didn't show at all, and there was nothing to see.He looked for a while and then said, "Go to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow."Hannah thought the same way, she didn't even know how long she had been pregnant.If we count from the last menstrual period, she has been pregnant for at least two months.In the past two months, she didn't feel anything at all.Hannah nodded and suddenly felt a bit tired, opening her mouth and yawning.Seeing her like this, Kendall g
