Claiming Her Back novel (Jessica and Lucas) novel Chapter 181

Chapter 181
Lucas was lost for words for a while, and he looked a little helpless.
He then turned to look at Jessica’s cold face and changed the topic. “I’ll drive you back.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll take a taxi. It will be here in five minutes.”
Jessica gave Lucas no excuse to keep her. “Mr. Thomas, we have divorced, but your sister still hates my guts. She has been making trouble for me time and time again. I am not good-tempered. I will deal with those who schemed against me, so I don’t need your oral support.”
Lucas looked at Jessica as she turned around, and his golden eyes darkened. “Jessica,” said Lucas.
· Hearing Lucas’ voice, Jessica stopped, but she did not look back.
She didn’t lie to Lucas. She had called for a taxi, and it was almost here.
“Do you feel nothing for me now?”
Jessica was stunned for a moment. She didn’t expect Lucas, who had always been cold – hearted, would ask such a question.
Jessica turned to look at him, her eyes dim in the night. “We’re divorced.”
Lucas and Jessica were separated by a few meters. In the dim light, Lucas could see a faint sorrow in Jessica’s eyes.
Suddenly, Jessica’s phone rang. She looked down at her phone. The call was from the driver.
She answered the phone as she walked out of the park. “Hello.”
“Miss Hall? I’m at the entrance of Griffith Park. Where are you now?”
“Okay, I’ll be right there.”
Jessica hung up the phone and walked toward the park entrance.
Jessica fastened her steps.
However, she had only taken a few steps when her hand holding the phone was suddenly pulled by the person behind her. Jessica subconsciously lost the grip of her bag.
Turning around, Jessica discovered that it was Lucas.
She frowned. “Lucas, what on earth do you want?”
“Jessica, you’ve had feelings for me for so many years. Can you really say that you don’t love me any more?”
Lucas still held her wrist, not letting her go.
When Jessica heard Lucas’ words, she lost her calmness and suddenly became a little agitated.
She looked at Lucas fiercely and said, “You are right. Loving someone can be a habit hard to get rid of. I can’t control my feelings, but I can control my behavior.”
“What if I tell you I love you, too, Jessica?
Jessica had never imagined that one day Lucas would confess his love to her.
They had been divorced for almost a year, but Lucas suddenly told Jessica that he loved her.
Did Lucas think he was acting in a TV drama?
Jessica quickly recovered from her shock. She forcefully broke free from his grip, took her bag on the ground, and ran without looking back.
Soon, Jessica saw the taxi she had called for.
Jessica opened the door and got into the car as if she was grabbing her last hope. “Sir, please start the car now. Thank you.”
Then Jessica turned to look outside the window. Lucas was trying to catch up, but he couldn’t.
Jessica felt that it was funny.
She had divorced Lucas for a year, and he suddenly confessed his love to her.
What a joke.
But why did she feel a little melancholy about such a ridiculous thing?
Fifteen minutes later, the car stopped in front of her apartment.
Jessica thanked the driver and pushed open the car door.
Just as she entered the elevator, the phone in her bag rang.
Jessica paused for a moment. She wiped the corner of her eyes and answered Hannah’s call. “I’m home.”
“Are you alright, Jess?”
Hannah was still in the bar. It was noisy, so she couldn’t hear Jessica’s voice. Since Jessica was taken away by Lucas, Hannah had been worried.
“What can possibly happen to me?”
The elevator door opened.
Hannah snorted. “I’m afraid that bastard Lucas will attack you.”
Jessica smiled, “Although Lucas is a jerk, he won’t hit a woman.”
“That’s good.” Hannah sounded relieved.
For a moment, Jessica wanted to tell Hannah that Lucas had just confessed his love to her. But it felt too unreal for her. She was not sure if she was drunk.
Then Jessica thought of Olivia, and her flipping heart cooled down again.
