Chapter 129
Jessica got out of the car and walked along the sidewalk for a while until she could no longer see Lucas’ car.
Jessica called Wendy and asked her to come over to pick her up. She sent her location to Wendy.
Jessica then waited for Wendy on the roadside.
It wasn’t cold at night in LA, but Jessica felt cold when the breeze blew on her face.
Jessica reached out to touch her face, only to find that she had shed tears at some point.
Jessica thought she had already left everything behind. Yet her feelings for Lucas had been lasting for years. It wasn’t that easy to let go of them.
Jessica did not understand what Lucas meant. Jessica preferred Lucas to be the jerk he had always been,
Olivia waited for half an hour at the entrance of the restaurant alone before she realized that Lucas had not informed the driver. She didn’t have her phone with her, so she could only ask the waiter to call her family, feeling quite embarrassed.
By the time Olivia returned to the Thomas villa, it was already one and a half hours later,
Justin and Rebecca had already gone to bed.
Olivia returned to her room and sat on her soft mattress. It took her some time to come back to her senses.
Olivia could tell from Lucas’ behavior that he had already fallen for Jessica.
Given Justin’s current attitude toward Jessica, Jessica and Lucas might indeed get married again.
Thinking of that, a sense of panic struck Olivia.
Lucas used to not care about Jessica. That was why Olivia and Trissy could bully Jessica as they wished.
Now that Jessica had a glimmering background and Lucas’ affection, Olivia would suffer a lot if Jessica returned to the villa.
Thinking of that, Olivia could no longer sit still. She took out her phone and called Trissy, telling her everything that had happened today
Luna and Trissy were now living in the apartment that Lucas had arranged for them. Although the apartment was spacious, the location was average, far inferior to the Thomas villa.
Just now, Trissy received a call. She went to the bedroom to answer it. After a while, she came out. Luna couldn’t help but ask, “Trissy, who was that? Lou?”
“It’s Olivia,” Trissy replied after hedging a bit.
“Olivia? I thought she was locked up.” Luna was surprised to hear that.
“She has been let out.” Trissy sorted out the key points of Olivia’s call in her mind and said, “Olivia just told me that Lucas invited Jessica to dinner today, and then…”
“Then what?” Luna felt anxious when she saw Trissy hedging.
“Lucas apologized to Jessica.”
“What did you say? That’s impossible!” When Luna heard Trissy’s words, she jumped to her feet at once. The peaceful look on her face was replaced by pure astonishment.
“It’s true. Olivia was on the spot. Besides, after dinner, Lucas even drove Jessica home, leaving Olivia at the restaurant alone.” Trissy added.
With that, Luna clenched her hands tightly. She was extremely flustered and somewhat at a loss.
Trissy, what should we do? What should we do? If this goes on, Lucas will not marry me.”
“Calm down. Jessica might not be planning to remarry. Hasn’t Mr. Davison been pursuing her all this time?” Trissy patted Luna on the shoulder, letting her sister sit down.
Trissy continued, “In my opinion, we should take Justin’s offer. Otherwise, we will lose the money, too.”
“Trissy, do you still think that old bastard Justin will keep his previous promise?” Luna snorted in disdain. “If Jessica really plans to remarry Lucas, then can you still go back and continue to be a Mrs. Thomas?”
“Then what should we do?” Trissy thought about it carefully and realized that Luna had made a fair point.
“We can’t wait like this any longer.” Luna stood up again. She walked back and forth in the middle of the living room for a few steps, then stopped and said to Trissy, “I’m going to see Jessica!”
