Claiming Her Back novel (Jessica and Lucas) novel Chapter 150

Chapter 150
Terry chuckled. “It’s not that you don’t like playboys. Jessica, you just don’t like feeling insecure. If I am honest with you, will you think that I’m a little more reliable?”
Jessica smiled and said, “I don’t think I’m that unconfident.”
“Really?”
Terry curled his lips. “Then you should try accepting me. Maybe you’ll gain some unexpected results, right?”
Jessica looked straight ahead. “But I’m more interested in earning money now. Mr. Davison, aren’t you
so?”
“True that.”
Terry answered and then added after a pause, “But earning money and pursuing you are not contradic tory.”
Jessica smiled and didn’t say anything else.
Terry’s comeback gave her a headache. Jessica rather hoped that Terry had admitted defeat that night and then gave up.
Jessica wasn’t sure if she would fall in love with another man, but she didn’t think she had any feelings for Terry
The car soon stopped at Jessica’s apartment, but Terry didn’t open the door. He loosened his seatbelt and said, “Wait for me.”
He pushed open the car door and got out of the car, striding toward the convenience store under the corridor.
Terry got out so quickly that Jessica had no choice but to wait for him.
After all, she couldn’t just leave like this, for Terry had sent her back.
She needed to at least express her thanks.
Terry soon returned with a grocery bag in his hands.
He got back into the car and handed Jessica a box of milk. “I don’t think you ate much tonight.”
Jessica was indeed hungry. She took the milk and found it was warm.
as W
They didn’t say anything again. Jessica lowered her head to drink the milk in her hand,
Outside the car was a bustling world. Inside the car, it was as quiet as the outer space.
After drinking the milk, Terry got out of the car and helped Jessica open the door.
He looked at Jessica and said, “Let me walk you to your door.”
Jessica raised her eyebrows at his words. “And then have a coffee at my place?”
“I don’t have coffee at night. But I will if you insist. How can I turn your invitation down?”
The intimate atmosphere in the car seemed to disappear. Jessica smiled, “Thank you.”
“You owe me another meal.”
Jessica nodded. “Alright.”
They entered the apartment side by side. Terry kept his word and just walked her to the door.
Terry stood at the door for a while before he turned around and went downstairs,
When he walked along the corridor, Terry saw Lucas.
Lucas looked sullen, fierce enough to swallow Terry up. But Terry was in a good mood tonight.
He raised his hand and slowly loosened the first button on his shirt. “Mr. Thomas, are you here for an other fight?”
Lucas suppressed the anger in his heart. Even so, his expression was still scary. “You did it on purpose that night, didn’t you?”
Terry deliberately said something unpleasant to provoke him the other day. Then Terry deliberately let Lucas think he was kissing Jessica, luring Lucas to hit him in front of Jessica!
Terry was as sinister and cunning as ever.
Terry clicked his tongue, making light of Lucas’ words. “So what?”
What could Lucas do?
Lucas was the man who lost his temper and hit first. He was the stupid one.
Terry’s admission irritated Lucas even more. However, Lucas was much more clear – headed now. “What do you think if Jessica knows?”
“Do you think I don’t dare to admit it after doing so?”
Being sinister and cunning wasn’t a bad thing.
Terry had never intended to keep what happened last night from Jessica.
He dared to tell Jessica what he was up to.
“She hates people like you the most, Terry!”
When Terry heard this, he suddenly smiled. “Mr. Thomas, you tell me who Jessica hates the most now.”
Terry paused and said something even more heart-wrenching, “By the way, what are you doing here to day? I thought you don’t like Jessica.”
The words completely irritated Lucas. Somehow, he couldn’t bear to hear anyone else bring that up. Not anyone!
Terry, you’re asking for it!”
“I’ve wanted to hit you for a long time, Lucas. I didn’t teach you a good lesson last night. I promise I will tonight!”
However, just as they began to wave fists, Lucas suddenly stopped his movements and stood there stiffly
Terry felt a little surprised but he took the chance and kicked him hard. Then Terry turned around to look at what was going on behind him.
When he saw Jessica, Terry panicked for a second, but he soon calmed down and walked up to Jessi ca Terry asked, “Why did you come down? Do you need something?”
