Remarriage His Billionaire Ex-Wife novel Chapter 116

Chapter 116
It all happened in an instant. When Lucas had learned about what happened to Olivia, she had already been crying for quite a while in the lounge.
The guests at the banquet today were all celebrities in the upper-class society of LA. They were business partners as well as acquaintances that also met each other at all kinds of parties. Thus, they naturally knew one thing or two about what Miss Thomas was like.
Besides, how could a dress that was worth tens of thousands of dollars get cracked up so thoroughly?
When Lucas heard it from Vincent, his face darkened.
Hari didn’t know what to do to help out Olivia, who seemed to be making a fool of herself all the time. Given Lucas’ terrible mood, Hari chose to remain silent.
Hari followed Lucas into the lounge.
Olivia had changed into a new dress at this time, but she still had not calmed down. She was still sitting there and crying. She was so embarrassed today.
When Bailey saw Lucas and Hari walk into the lounge, she hurried to say to Olivia, “Olivia, stop crying. Mr. Thomas is here, and he will definitely defend you.”
Olivia looked up and saw Lucas standing in front of her. Her eyes were flooded with tears and she could not see Lucas’ face clearly.
Olivia cried loudly, “Lucas, it was Jessica! Jessica tricked me!”
“What does this have to do with Jessica? Her dress is also cracked up. Olivia, you’ll have to give us more details about that.” Hari was surprised to hear what Olivia had said.
Olivia wiped her tears. When she couldn’t find any sympathy or concern on Lucas’ face, she felt a bit nervous.
Olivia stammered, “It… It was just a random guess.”
“A random guess?” Lucas snorted and said coldly, “Olivia, don’t think that everyone is as stupid as you. I won’t look into it anymore. I hope you can stop before you’ve gone too far.”
“Mr. Thomas, Olivia is the victim. Even if you don’t comfort her, you shouldn’t scold her, either.” When Bailey saw that Lucas did not intend to deal with Jessica, she was a little dissatisfied and blurted it out in excitement.
Bailey shut her mouth in fear when Lucas tossed a cold glance at her.
“Miss Wade, right?” Lucas looked at Bailey with a deadpan face. “I remember that Mr. Wade’s company is trying to work with the Thomas Group currently, but now it seems unnecessary. Mr. Wade shouldn’t be too occupied in business after all. He doesn’t even have enough time to raise her daughter properly.”
When Bailey heard what Lucas said, her face turned pale with fright. She opened her mouth, trying to say something. But before she could do that, Lucas and Hari had already left.
Olivia, ask for a favor from your brother for me. My dad will beat me to death if he finds out about how the business cooperation
ends”
“Don’t look at me, Bailey. I can’t do anything about my brother’s decision.” Olivia thought of Lucas’ stern face and answered with fear
Lucas left the lounge and came alone to the terrace on the third floor of the venue. He lit a cigarette, trying to calm down.
Wher Lucas learned that Olivia was involved, he could tell what had happened at once Olivia must have tried to lead Jessica into a wap, but in the end, Olivia became the one who got entrapped.
Lucas realized that if Jessica was tricked to wear that dress, then she would be the laughing stock at the banquet.

s company bear the scene of a lot of men seeing Jessica half-naked.
But Lucas and Jessica had already divorced.
Lucas felt a bit helpless. He snuffed out his cigarette, turned around, and was about to go back when he ran into Jessica.
Although Jessica didn’t get harmed, she was still angry about Olivia’s repeated schemes against her.
So when Jessica saw Lucas, she didn’t intend to greet him.
But when Lucas saw Jessica, he greeted her, “Jessica.”
“What’s your point, Mr. Thomas?” Jessica sneered and looked at Lucas.
Lucas felt a sting in his chest when he saw the vigilance and coldness in Jessica’s eyes.
“Are you alright?” Lucas did not expect that he would feel lost for words in front of Jessica.
“I’m alright, but Miss Thomas doesn’t seem to be doing too well. I’m not the one you should be concerned about, Mr. Thomas.”
Jessica paused a bit before she spoke since she did not expect Lucas to say that.
“You are the author of ‘Youth, aren’t you?” Lucas did not care about Jessica’s sarcasm. Instead, he asked the question he was truly curious about.
