Claiming Her Back novel (Jessica and Lucas) novel Chapter 174

Chapter 174
At night, the Thomas villa was very quiet. Lucas returned to his car and lowered his head to light a cigarette.
He thought of Jessica and Terry in the photos he had just seen. He didn’t know what they were talking about. Jessica was smiling, and Terry was right beside her. He lowered his head slightly. They didn’t get too close, but still, Lucas felt a throb in his heart.
His heart was aching.
Suddenly, a car drove into the parking lot. The remote light was cast over. Lucas narrowed his eyes and came back to his senses. He snuffed out his cigarette and started the car.
The car slowly drove out of the villa area. Half an hour later, Lucas’ black car stopped outside Jessica’s apartment.
Lucas was about to get out of the car when a familiar car drove over. The person sitting on the other side of the half-open window was Terry.
Lucas froze for a moment and his face darkened.
Ever since Jessica and Lucas had been snapped in the hotel room, people never stopped gossiping about it.
On one hand, Jessica asked Eden to help stop the gossip from hyping up. On the other hand, she kept following the investigation of Grace and Bob. She had been very busy.
Then came the day when Jessica was about to meet Grace. But before that, Jessica decided to have a few words with Judy first.
Since it was personal, Jessica didn’t want to solve it at the company.
Wendy had been working for Jessica for quite some time, so she understood what Jessica meant the other day
Thus, Wendy had Judy “invited to a hotel room. That was a tooth for a tooth.
At noon, Jessica slowly finished the last piece of steak in the dining room. She picked up a wet towel to wipe her hands and took a tissue to sip the grease on her lips. Only after doing all that did she leave.
Ten minutes later, Jessica’s car stopped outside the hotel.
Jessica left her key to a valet and then entered the hotel in her high heels.
Wendy had already been waiting for Jessica. She walked over when she saw Jessica come out of the elevator, “Miss Hall, Judy is already in the room.”
Jessica smiled and said, “Thanks.”
“At your service, Miss Hall.”
Wendy said as she took out the room card and swiped open the door.
Jessica walked in and saw Judy lying on the bed, still unconscious.
Jessica looked around and placed her purse on the sofa quietly. She then cleared a fruit bowl on the table and went into the bathroom with the bowl.
Wendy was confused at first. But she understood what Jessica was doing when Jessica came out with
a bowl full of water.
As expected, the next second, Jessica splashed the water on Judy’s face.
Judy was forced to take some sleeping pills when she was “invited” over.
Judy had been asleep for three hours. The cold water made her wake up with a start. She cried as she touched her face. When she realized the liquid was just water, Judy couldn’t help but curse. “Who the hell…”
“Hello, Judy. My name is Jessica.”
Judy froze at Jessica’s name.
Regardless of the cold water all over her body, she hurried to sit up on the bed. The water in her hair ran down her face.
Judy raised her hand and wiped it. She looked at Jessica and couldn’t help but feel guilty. “I don’t seem to know you.”
Judy said that with her head bent, trying to avoid eye contact with Jessica.
“Is that so?”
Jessica smiled and showed Judy the evidence that Wendy had got. “Judy, look at me again. Are you sure you don’t know me?”
Judy’s face turned pale when she saw the transaction records in front of Jessica. She knew Jessica had found out what she did. “Miss Hall, what are you doing to me?”
Jessica chuckled at Judy’s question.
Jessica said, “Shouldn’t I be the one asking you the question? We never have any old scores. Why did you trick me into that trap?”
