Claiming Her Back novel (Jessica and Lucas) novel Chapter 84

Chapter 84
Lucas raised his head to meet Justin’s gaze and said indifferently, “I was the one who told Jessica that I used her. She was angry and wanted to take revenge on me. It’s normal.”
Lucas spoke lightly, but Justin was furious.
Justin looked at his favorite grandson in disbelief. “Lucas, can you repeat that?”
Lucas raised his hand and rubbed his temples. He didn’t sleep well last night and was woken up early in the morning. His head hurt a little. “You didn’t hear me wrong. I am the cause.”
Lucas paused and said, “By the way, you said that if Luna wakes up, you will let me marry her. Now she wakes up, Grandpa, it is time for you to fulfill your promise.”
“Bang!”
Justin was so angry that he smashed the vase on the desk directly at Lucas. “Get lost, get lost! Out!”
Lucas looked at Justin, whose face was still cold and expressionless. “Grandpa, don’t be angry. It won’t be good if your blood pressure rises. I’m going back to work. I’ll get someone to handle the news online.”
With that, Justin was even angrier. He started to tremble.
SI
Lucas called Justin’s secretary in and said, “Take good care of Grandpa.”
GU
With that, Lucas left the study.
Lucas had just walked out of the study when he heard the sound of something smashing inside.
Lucas looked at the closed door of the study and went downstairs with a cold face.
Downstairs, Olivia was having her breakfast absent-mindedly. When she saw Lucas coming down, she quickly poked her head out to look.
However, unexpectedly, she met Lucas’ cold gaze. Olivia froze for a moment and wanted to lower her head, but it was too late.
“Didn’t grandpa ask you to apologize to Jessica? Since Jessica hasn’t forgiven you, you should continue to apologize. If she still doesn’t forgive you, I will freeze your credit card.”
Olivia widened her eyes. She got heated. “Lucas, are you crazy? Jessica is obviously trying to make things difficult for our family. Do you still want me to apologize to her? She’s gonna scold and insult me!”
“Haven’t you scolded her before?”
Lucas asked indifferently, shutting Olivia up.
–
It took Olivia some time to pull herself together. “Mom, is Lucas crazy? He must have been dumb after being beaten up by Jessica!”
Rebecca glared at Olivia unhappily. “That’s your brother. How can you say that?”
“But he wants to freeze my card because of Jessica!”
“You did bully Jessica in the past. Apologize to her and she won’t cause trouble for our family anymore. Isn’t that
SO?”
Olivia did not like to hear that from Rebecca. She pouted and went back to her room.
Lucas left the villa and went straight back to the company,
Lucas arrived early and there was no one in the company. The bodyguard at the entrance saw the injury on his face and was shocked
Lucas had drunk quite a bit last night and had a fight with Terry. He went to sleep at two or three in the morning,
He was woken up by a call from the villa at 7:30 in the morning and hurried back. He didn’t even drink any water before leaving the villa.
Lucas had a stomachache. He sat on the chair and recalled the cimetidine Jessica had asked Vincent to put inside the cabinet
Lucas frowned, opened the drawer, and took out the cimetidine, only to find it expired.
At the same time, Vincent knocked on the door. Lucas threw the cimetidine to the side and restrained his expression, “Come in.”
Vincent pushed open the door and could not help but be startled when he saw the wound on Lucas’ face.
But Vincent had been working for Lucas for so long that he knew what to ask and what not. He quickly lowered his head and handed over the document in his hand. “Mr. Thomas, this is something I found about what happened four years ago.”
As far as Vincent knew about Lucas, he was convinced that Lucas would be irritated by the results.
After all, Vincent had been his secretary for years. Vincent put down the document and subconsciously wanted to leave so that he wouldn’t have to face Lucas’ rage.
But just as Vincent was about to leave, he suddenly saw a bottle of cimetidine on the desk.
Vincent quickly looked at Lucas, only to find that Lucas did not look good.
“Mr. Thomas, do you have a stomachache?”
Lucas’ hand twitched a bit. He glanced at Vincent. “Nope.”
Vincent pursed his lips. Sensing Lucas’ inexplicable anger, he did not dare to ask any further. “Alright, then I’ll leave you alone.”
“Sure.”
Lucas ignored Vincent and lowered his head to read the document.
Lucas read it fast, almost ten lines at a glance, and in just a few minutes, Lucas finished reading the document.
After reading it, his face darkened. He then threw away the document.
How could that be?
Jessica was supposed to be the plotter. How could she become the victim?
