Chapter 45
Mrs. Hall saw their stealthy interactions and clicked her tongue. “Jess, the issue is not about you alone. Mom and dad don’t just uphold justice for you. Don’t be confused.”
Of course, Jessica knew it. She was just worried that they were tired from the flight. Now, it seemed that she was overthinking
Jessica laughed, “I’m not that stupid.”
May snorted and thought to herself, “If she is not stupid, why did she insist on marrying Lucas?”
But Jessica was her daughter, so May could not bear to render her more wretched.
“Let’s go to the parking lot.”
Jessica led them to the parking lot. When she opened the door, she found that Morgan was carrying a box. She couldn’t help but frown. “Dad, what’s that?”
“Nothing.”
Morgan waved his hand and bent down to get in the car following May.
Jessica did not ask any more questions. Instead, she said to Wendy, “Wendy, let’s go to Thomas’ house.”
Wendy was stunned for a moment but soon reacted.
The Morgan couple rushed over in a hurry. If they were still angry, the dinner would be unpalatable.
The black commercial car slowly drove out of the parking lot. Thirty minutes later, the car pulled out from the airport highway and headed for downtown.
Soon, the car took them to a villa complex.
It was half a year since Jessica left here. She was nonchalant when she returned to this place.
As soon as the car arrived at the gate of Thomas’ villa, they saw Olivia in her car.
Olivia thought that someone came to visit them, so she looked back, only to see Jessica getting out of the car.
Her expression changed slightly and she got out of the car quickly. “Jessica, what are you doing here?”
When Olivia finished speaking, her gaze fell on Morgan and May, who were by Jessica’s side.
Olivia recognized Morgan. He’s the man by Jessica’s side that day.
The woman next to him was dressed in fancy clothes. She must be a rich lady.
Suddenly, Olivia seemed to have understood something. “Jessica, don’t bring your trouble into my family.”
Then she looked at the rich lady and said, “Madam, Jessica has nothing to do with the Thomas family. She seduced your husband. But it has nothing to do with us. If you want to settle the score with her, then settle it with her.”
May had been furious when she came to settle old scores with the Thomas family here, but Olivia made things worse.
May exploded. “Where are your parents? I want to ask how your parents taught you. You’re so young, but you have
such filthy thoughts in your head!”
Olivia was dumbfounded. “Madam, you have to understand that I am helping you!”
“Help me? You made a rumor that my daughter had an affair with my husband. Is that how you help me?”
Jessica knew that May and Morgan were here to vent their anger. She just needed to stand by and be a quiet companion
Just as May finished speaking, Olivia was stunned, “You… Are you Jessica’s parents?”
May sneered. Just as she was about to speak, Morgan gave Olivia a look. “Miss Thomas, we’ve been standing for quite a long while. How long will you keep us standing like this? Is that how you greet your guests?”
The couple’s words turned Olivia’s head spinning. She looked at Jessica, unable to react.
At this time, a black Bentley gradually drove in from the entrance. The person sitting in the car was none other than Lucas
Seeing Lucas, Olivia ran to him as if he was her savior. “Lucas, Jessica is here with her parents.”
Lucas glanced outside of the car. When his gaze landed on Morgan, his expression changed.
He pushed the door open and got out of the car and looked at Jessica with a complicated expression. Finally, his gaze landed on Morgan. “Please.”
It’s reasonable that Olivia can’t recognize the chairman of the Hall Group. But Lucas, who had been in the business world for so many years, how could he not recognize Morgan.
Maybe it was too noisy outside, Rebecca walked out and said, “Olivia, Lucas, what happened?”
Olivia ran to Rebecca and whispered, “Mom, Jessica is here with her parents.”
Morgan gave Lucas a cold look and snorted, “Tell Justin to come out. I have some old scores to settle with your family!”
