Chapter 8
Jessica slapped Olivia, but Lucas did not take revenge on Jessica for hig sister. So as soon an Olivia returned to the Thomas villa, she ran to Justin and complained,
When Justin heard that Jessica had come back to LA, he was filled with fury again
Justin immediately called Lucas and asked him to bring Jessica over the next day so that she could kneel and apologize
“Grandpa, we are divorced.” Lucas said calmly
“So what? She released the video. If we call the police, she will be thrown into prison/” Justin coughed as he spoke
“The police won’t arrest her, because what she posted was exactly what had happened” Lucas was a little impatient
Justin froze for a moment. When Justin came to his senses, Lucas had already hung up
Lucas threw his phone on the sofa and lit a cigar.
Three months after Jessica vanished, she came back as a formidable woman rather than Lucas‘ obedient wife she used to be
Just as Lucas took a puff of his cigar, his phone rang again. Feeling annoyed, he picked it up,
It was his friend, Hari. The music on the other end of the line was deafening. Lucas frowned and almost wanted to hang up
“We are at LURE. You coming?” Hari sounded very excited.
“No.”
“Really? Lucas, but Jessica is here too. Oh, and her new lover, quite a hot guy.” Hari said.
Jessica was dragged to LURE by Hannah, because Hannah, the nightclub queen, planned to celebrate her birthday there
As soon as Jessica sat down, Hannah brought over a man. As they approached, Jessica recognized the man. It was the guy she and Hannah knew from school, Caesar Kim.
It had been a few years since Jessica last saw Caesar. He looked more handsome,
“When did you come back?” Jessica looked at the tall man and raised her eyebrows.
“Yesterday.” Caesar sat down next to Jessica. He took two drinks and handed one to her.
While they were recalling their old days in school, the staff of LURE moved the musical instruments and equipment to the stage. Hannah nudged Jessica and said excitedly. “Let‘s go and have some fun! Don‘t tell me you forgot how to beat the drums!”
Lucas’ gaze fell on Jessica, who was playing the drums. Under the spotlight, Lucas could tell that Jessica was no longer the dull girl she used to be.
The performance was over. Jessica was talking to her friends when Hari suddenly appeared, “Jessica, you are a great drummer!”
