Claiming Her Back novel (Jessica and Lucas) novel Chapter 145

Chapter 145
No one knew who posted the video of Lucas and Terry fighting each other online, but the video soon spread widely in the business circle in LA
After Justin knew about it, he immediately asked Dwayne to call Lucas, but no one answered.
Justin was so angry that he couldn’t sleep. He then called Morgan to apologize, and sat in the study until 11 o’clock
Justin usually went to bed at around ten o’clock, but now it was almost midnight. Dwayne couldn’t help but remind Justin, “Mr. Thomas, it’s almost twelve o’clock.”
Justin looked up at Dwayne. “My phone, please.”
Dawyne knew Justin was going to call Lucas again, so he brought the phone from the desk to him.
Justin took the phone, put on his reading glasses, and searched for Lucas’ number.
Meanwhile, in the ward.
Hari finally stopped yakking so that Lucas could enjoy the tranquility. However, the tranquility didn’t last long before Lucas’ phone rang.
Lucas glanced at his phone and saw that Justin was calling.
When Lucas got off the plane, he had already seen several missed calls from Dwayne. Naturally, Lucas knew what they were about.
At that time, Lucas was too grumpy to explain anything to Justin. He did not expect that Justin would call him personally given that it was already late.
Hearing the phone ringing, Hari also raised his head. Seeing that it’s from Justion, Hari raised his eyebrows and left the ward.
Lucas gazed at his phone before he pressed the Answer button, “Grandpa.”
“I asked you to attend Jessica’s birthday party to ease tension between our two families, but what did you do? You got into a fight with someone? Lucas, you just don’t want to get back together with Jessica, do you?”
Lucas pursed his lips. “I’m sorry, grandpa.”
..”Why did you get yourself into a fight with Terry? Was it for something he said?”
Lucas did not answer that. Justin waited for a while, but before Lucas could explain, Justin angrily smashed the book in his hand. “Lucas, did you lose your voice or something?”
“It’s not early, Grandpa. You should go to bed now.”
Lucas was about to hang up when he heard Justin angrily ask him, “You don’t want to remarry Jessica, do you?”
Hearing this, Lucas paused slightly. He wanted to say no, but in the end, he pursed his lips, unable to say it out. “I do.”
Lucas didn’t know why, but he felt that he didn’t hate Jessica that much anymore.
“I see.”
This time, Justin took the initiative to hang up.
Lucas froze for a moment. He didn’t know what Justin was up to, but he didn’t have the mood to think about it now.
When Jessica returned home, it was already late. When she saw Morgan, she was slightly stiffened. “Dad, why are you still up?”. –
“Yeah, I’ve been waiting for you.”
Morgan wanted to have a few words with Jessica, but when he saw the tiredness on her face, he didn’t bear to ask,
“It’s getting late. Jess, wash up and go to bed,”
Jessica was indeed a little tired. In the past two days, she had been busy preparing for the birthday party. Yet in the end, on that very day. Lucas and Terry got into a fight.
Jessica had to settle things down and send off the guests. Jessica would certainly feel super tired, even if she were a superwoman,
Jessica knew that Morgan wanted to know what had happened at the banquet, but even Jessica herself was clueless.
If Jessica was asked to give a reason, she would attribute the fighting to Lucas’ madness.
Morgan patted Jessica on the back and let her go back to her room.
“Good night, Dad
“Good night, Jess.
Jessica went back to her room and took off her high heels. Her feet hurt after staying in those high heels for nearly 10 hours.
Jessica prepared a tub of warm water and dripped essential oil, planning to take a bath before sleeping.
Jessica was so sleepy that she fell asleep in the bathtub. She only woke up when the water turned cold. Jessica then put on her pajamas and threw herself into bed.
When Jessica woke up the next morning, it was already nine o’clock.
Only after washing up did Jessica notice the unread messages from Hannah.
Jessica raised her eyebrows and checked the messages.
Jessica, has Lucas lost his mind? He apologized on Twitter. And on top of that, his apology makes me feel that he’s trying to get back together with you.”
Jessica frowned and clicked on the screenshot Hannah sent. It was Lucas’ apology.
“I’m sorry for what I did last night. I was too impulsive. I shouldn’t have caused trouble at Miss Hall’s birthday party. In addition, I’d also like to give those guys in a relationship a kind reminder: stay away from other women. Sorry, Jessica, I apologize for what I did last night again.”
