Chapter 110
Derek raised his eyebrows and gestured for Jessica to continue.
“Mr. Fairbank, please tell Mr. Thomas that I have plenty of money. If he wants to squander his mortey on me, I would love to accept it. We’re even now. For the sake of Mr. Thomas being so generous, I won’t pick on Luna.”
After Jessica finished speaking, she turned around and walked toward the trading area.
Derek looked at Jessica’s back, and the look in his eyes changed.
Hari was confused. He had heard everything Jessica said. In fact, he understood every word, but he felt puzzled by the overall meaning. “What is Jessica talking about? When did Lucas send her tens of millions?”
Derek took a glance at Hari and then walked out. In the meantime, Derek said, “Lucas called me this morning.”
When Derek received the call from Lucas, he was indeed a little surprised.
Lucas had never been a person who would spend money on a beautiful woman, but when he called this morning, he said, “If Jessica wants the land in the north of LA, just give it to her.”
The land was very profitable. Derek put forward a lot of conditions. With the slightest hesitation, Lucas just agreed to Derek’s requirements.
Since Derek had given up this land, it was fair for him to ask Lucas for another land,
If Derek did not take such a good advantage, he was just a fool.
Hari was stunned for a moment, but he still couldn’t understand. “Why did Lucas call you?”.
Thinking of what they had talked about this morning, Derek smiled. “Lucas bought me a piece of land.”
“No, what Jessica said…”
Hari broke in mid-phrase and understood everything. “Did you mean that Lucas bought you a piece of land so that you could give up the land in the north of LA to Jessica?”
Derek was in a good mood, so he was much more patient with Hari. “Right, you got it.”
Hari was shocked, “Why do I feel like I am dreaming? Didn’t he say that he does not love Jessica?”
Derek turned to look at Jessica, who was not far away. “Perhaps, this is divorce compensation?”
Hari thought for a moment and felt that it seemed to be the case.
But Hari still found it incredible, “Isn’t it because Lucas realizes that he has fallen in love with Jessica?”
Derek thought for a moment and said, “Possibly, but not probably
Jessica immediately called Hannah. Hannah needed to ask Eden to remove the trending topic and block the key words.
When Hannah heard Jessica’s words, she immediately felt bad. “No, Jessica, are you going to repeat the mistake?”
Luna went too far. What was wrong with spreading the news about her on the Internet for a few days?
Jessica knew that Hannah had misunderstood. “No, I took Lucas’ money.”
Hannah, who was on the other end of the phone, became even more unhappy. “How much money? Do you need that money?”
Jessica waited for Hannah to finish speaking. Then Jessica said, “If you can give me that piece of land in north LA, I won’t have to tolerate him.”

Hannah thought she had misheard, “Can Lucas be so generous?”
Jessica was amused by Hannah. “Derek directly gave this land to me.”
Jessica wasn’t a fool. It was obvious that Derek didn’t even tend to fight with her over the price. If Jessica couldn’t tell, then she was
just blind.
Jessica believed that she wasn’t even on nodding terms with Derek. The only possibility that Derek backed off was that Lucas gave an offer
Of course, Jessica didn’t care why Lucas suddenly asked Derek to give her the land.
However, she was determined to obtain this land. Since they wanted to give it to her, she might as well accept it.
Removing the trending topic was Jessica’s way of returning the favor.
Then Jessica and Lucas were even.
Hannah gasped. “Oh, my dear. Is Lucas crazy?”
Jessica smiled, “Maybe. I won’t talk about it anymore. I’m going back to office. Tell Eden to remove the trending topic.”
“Copy that.”
For the sake of money, Jessica would remove the trending topic.
At the same time, Derek had completed his mission.
When Derek returned to the company, he called Lucas and said, “I gave the land to her.”
Lucas, who was on the other side of the line, responded coldly, “OK.”
Hari’s words came across Derek’s mind. “Lucas, to be honest, are you in love with Jessica?”
“You think too much.”
After saying this, Lucas hung up abruptly.
How could he fall in love with Jessica?
It was out of the question.
Lucas just suddenly felt that during those three years of marriage, he had really let Jessica down.
But Jessica said that she now felt that he was disgusting.
Since she felt that he was disgusting, then if he personally compensated her, she would definitely not accept it.
However, this piece of land in the north of LA was different. Jessica was determined to get it. In that case, then Lucas would give it to her as compensation.
From then on, they were even.
