 "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

      "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

    Foster had no shame, while Hannah dared not lose her own face.His words did hit the nail on the head, and Hannah dared not move. She even kept her head down, afraid that someone might take a video and upload it online, which could lead to Jessica, Mona, and others recognizing her.Foster's car was parked in a nearby parking lot. He carried her over a small path and they arrived at the car after a few steps.Hannah struggled for a moment, but couldn't break free, and could only watch as he put her into the car.Hannah had been taking the stomach-aiding and digestion-promoting pills for several minutes when she started to hiccup. As she was fastening her seatbelt, she hiccuped twice. Coincidentally, Foster walked in from the side and watched her. Although he didn't say anything, Hannah could see the amusement in his dark eyes.Her face stiffened for a moment, and she glared at him, saying, "What are you laughing at? Haven't you seen someone hiccup before?"Making a mountain out of a mo

    Foster glanced at her and didn't have any objections, “I'll listen to you."Hannah stopped talking and walked here for nearly twenty minutes, feeling tired and hungry.The thin slices of pork belly were quickly grilled to perfection. Hannah has always loved eating grilled meat. She is the kind of person who would rather gain weight herself than miss out on enjoying a good meal of meat.She didn't speak, a piece of grilled meat wrapped in lettuce, topped with sauce, and then she stuffed it into her mouth.Foster looked at her as she put the meat into her mouth. Her lips were like a squirrel hiding a pine nut inside its mouth, and her cheeks were puffed up, making anyone who looked at her feel an increase in appetite.Foster rarely ate these, even during the difficult years, he didn't really touch them. When he was hungry, he would just eat a piece of bread and drink a large bottle of water.He was not like Hannah, who always seemed to have the greatest enthusiasm for food.On the contr

Hannah was standing inside the car, while Foster was standing outside, attracting the attention of many passersby.Joe arrived and saw Hannah standing inside the car, confronting Foster with a cold expression on her face.He hesitated for a moment before walking over and said, "Mr. Carroway?"Foster glanced at him and handed his phone to Hannah, saying, "I'll take you back, and Joe will handle the rest for you."Hannah took back her phone, "No need."She looked at the time and it had already been seven or eight minutes. Shouldn't the people from the 4S store have arrived by now?Hannah got off the car and was about to make another phone call to the person over there when she saw a trailer driving towards her."Miss Howell, I'm sorry, there was traffic on the way, so I arrived late."Hannah didn't say anything, she just told them to quic

    Hannah was also wondering when Rowan had become so humble, to the point of coming to the company specifically to apologize to her.That night, if it hadn't been for Foster coming out and mentioning Mr. Everitt, Rowan clearly didn't even want to say sorry.Hmm, that's strange.She had just wanted to call Sophia, but to her surprise, Sophia had already come in. "Miss Howell, Rowan and Abigail said they forgot to mention something."Hannah raised an eyebrow and said, "Let them in."She said it, didn't she?Rowan and Abigail turned back again, they looked at each other, seemingly discussing who should speak.Hannah didn't want to care about it at all, she tapped the table with the pen in her hand and said, "Cut to the chase, are you two playing telepathy over there?"Rowan's face stiffened, and Abigail took the opportunity to speak, “Miss Howell, you just said, that night's incident, that night has already passed, so can you please ask the influential figure behind you to go easy on the t
