Chapter 100
Lucas already knew what Justin wanted him for
But still, there was something unexpected,
Soon Lucas returned to the Thomas villa to see Justin He frowned after hearing what Justin had said
“Are you saying that I should marry Jessica again?
Justin glared at Lucas, “What? Don’t tell me you are thinking about marrying Luna!”
Lucas didn’t want to marry Luna, But he didn’t think marrying Jessica was an option,
“As for whom I will marry, let’s talk about it later. But remarrying Jessica is out of the question
Justin was dissatisfied when he heard that.
Justin snorted and said, “What do you mean by out of the question? Jessica likes you. Just coax her and apologize to her. Oh, by the way, tell Olivia to apologize again. Be sincere and try a few more times
Lucas did not speak while Justin was still enthusiastic about telling Lucas how to persuade Jessica
Yet Lucas didn’t make a beep no matter what Justin said. Thus, Justin got heated and whipped Lucas with his cane.
Justin said angrily, “I’m talking to you. Did you hear me? None of the two sisters in the Cheek Family is innocent! Jessica has a privileged family background and she is capable as well. Most importantly, she likes you! Women tend to fall for their loved ones. If you put in some effort, Jessica will marry you sooner or later.”
“Grandpa, I will think about it. I still have a lunch meeting at noon, so I won’t stay to have lunch with you. I’m going back to the company.”
With that, Lucas, Justin called out several times behind Lucas, but Lucas seemed to not hear him.
Justin was so angry that he threw away the cane in his hand. A decoration not far away was knocked to the ground. With a bang, Dwayne rushed in.
Even so, Lucas did not look back
Lucas drove home from the company. He didn’t even drive the car into the villa. He parked it outside the villa
Lucas quickly walked out of the villa and got into the car, but he did not start the engine at once.
What Justin said lingered in his mind, which made Lucas quite upset.
Remarriage? Although Lucas did not want to admit it, he did have the thought when he was alone.
However, Jessica’s attitude made Lucas feel that it was getting more and more impossible.
Lucas reached for the cigarette box, shook out a cigarette from it, and lowered his head to light it.
Just as Lucas finished two puffs, Olivia’s voice came from outside the car window.
Lucas frowned and twisted the car key, trying to start the engine and leave.
However, Olivia ran out to stop the car. “Lucas! Don’t go yet. I found a painting in the study! It’s Jessica’s!”
Lucas was about to ask Olivia to get out of the way when he heard ‘Jessica’. He somehow let go of the steering wheel
Lucas rolled down the window and looked at Olivia. “Since it’s Jessica’s painting, why did you put your hands on it?
Olivia pouted and placed the sketch in front of Lucas. “It’s your portrait!”
Looking at the sketch Olivia was holding in front of him, Lucas’ hand that was holding the cigarette trembled slightly, and his cold golden eyes also fluctuated a little. “Where did you find it?”
Olivia moved the painting away and revealed her face. She looked at Lucas and raised her eyebrows proudly. “In the study! It was caught in a picture book. I was attracted to the name of the picture book, so I wanted to take it out and have a look. As soon as I pulled the book out, the painting fell out”
After Olivia finished speaking, she looked back at the painting a few more times. As she looked at it, she sighed, “Lucas, Jessica likes you quite a lot! See how lovely the sketch is!”
“Give it to me.”
Lucas snuffed out his cigarette and raised his head to look at Olivia with a blank face.
“I found the sketch. I…”
Olivia was afraid of Lucas after all, so she reluctantly handed the sketch to him. After that, she pursed her lips and whispered, “I want to show Jessica the sketch so that she won’t be stubborn. She clearly likes you. She’s playing hard to get. Doesn’t she want remarriage?”
Lucas took the sketch over and put it aside. He stepped on the accelerator and drove off.
Dwayne’s visit was nothing but an interlude to Jessica.
Jessica did not take what Dwayne said seriously.
Compared to Justin’s thoughts, Jessica cared more about the bidding plan for the piece of land. The bidding would start tomorrow.
Jessica had directly rejected the proposal at the meeting just now, and even Megan didn’t dare to go against Jessica like before.
Jessica was the daughter of the Hall family. The entire Hall Group belonged to the Hall family, and Morgan only had one daughter. In other words, Jessica was the future owner of the Hall Group.
Who would dare to ignore Jessica’s words?
