Chapter 133
It Was Jessica’s treat at Cloud Top Hannah wanted a bigger party, so she called Caesar and Lance over as well. They drank and danced together
Jessica who had been working hand recently was quite relieved and the unease caused by Lucas dispersed as well.
On the way home, Hannah, who was already a little wasted, repeatedly confirmed with Jessica that her mood had not been affected by Terry Alter Jessica said no, Hannah leaned against Jessica’s shoulder and fell asleep,
Jessica leaned against the back of the seat and closed her eyes to get some rest. Jessica didn’t feel sad because Terry turned to a new girl
Yet Jessica still felt something. After all, Terry had been pursuing her for a few months, and he had helped her out many times
Were it not for Jessica having just divorced and wasnt seeking any romantic relationships, things might have worked out between them
But it was all pointless
Jessica collected her thoughts and focused on her work again,
Jessica had already gotten that patch of land in the Northern LA. What’s left was how to exploit and develop it.
Megan was reluctant to hand over such a big project to Jessica, but he could do nothing about it.
Jessica was the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hall, and the future heir to the Hall Group,
But still, if Jessica wanted to make her way into the boardroom through her competence, she would have to make some achievements, so she must complete the project successfully
Otherwise, those stubborn elderly of the Hall Group board would definitely belittle her and accuse her of counting on her family
Although Jessica didn’t mind others’ opinions at all, she hated it when they spoke ill of Morgan, saying how useless his daughter was
Thus, Jessica had to work hard,
Early the next morning, Jessica came to the company with the report that she had been reviewing all night long. She informed Wendy to call the head of the Planning Department to come to the meeting,
By the time the meeting ended, Jessica found that it was already noon,
Jessica turned on her phone and found a few unread messages.
They were all from Hannah.
Jessica checked the messages and found that Hannah was comforting her. She was a little confused and called Hannah.
Jess, don’t take it too seriously. He’s just a man. You are the daughter of the Hall family and general manager of the Hall Group. You’ll have any men you want.”
Hannah kept talking before Jessica could say anything
“Alright, alright. What happened? Why would I be sad because of a man?” Jessica rubbed the space between her eyebrows to relieve the soreness
“I was just worried about you” Hannah laughed dryly and said guiltily, “Nothing happened.”
What exactly is going on? Hurry up and tell me, I know you well.” Jessica smiled.
“Well, it’s really nothing big. It’s just that there were paparazzi who took photos last night, catching the scene where Terry took a woman to a hotel.”
Jessica raised her eyebrows when she heard that. She chuckled. “Really? Is that so? I didn’t expect Mr. Davison to progress so quickly this time. However, Hannah, why are you so concerned about Mr. Davison? You had a strong reaction when you saw Grace yesterday. You don’t like him, do you?”
“What are you talking about, Jess? I don’t like that kind of playboy, I swear.” Hannah said angrily.
Hannah felt that her worry for Jessica was unnecessary. Jessica did fall for Lucas once, but it didn’t mean that she would make the same mistake twice.
Jessica was no longer the Mrs. Thomas she used to be. She was Morgan’s daughter. Moreover, she had never agreed to be with Terry. Presumably, she was indeed not sad.
Hannah remembered that Jessica had been in pain and sorrow over the past few years because of Lucas. Now that Jessica was suddenly so clear-headed, Hannah felt a bit amazed at her.
“Then get back to work. I’m going to work as well.”
Where are you going to work? At Cloud Top?” Jessica couldn’t help but laugh when she heard Hannah’s words.
“That’s too much! Jess! You hurt my feelings. I won’t forgive you unless you buy me the latest lipstick from Tom Ford.” Hannah didn’t care about what Jessica said and hung up the phone.
Jessica also put her phone on the desk. She tidied up the materials on the desk and was ready for lunch.
At that moment, Wendy suddenly knocked on the door and walked in.
