Jessica could tell that Morgan was cautious about his words. She then said, "Dad, I assure you and mom that I am fine."
With that, Morgan let out a sigh of relief. "I know. So, who is behind this rumor? Whoever did this had crossed the line! You have to look into it."
"I see, Dad. I will ask Wendy to investigate the whole thing. Dad, you and Mom should take care of your health at home. I am fine here. You don't have to worry about me."
"Sure."
Seeing Jessica wasn't upset at all, Morgan felt relieved.
"Then I won't disturb you. I just got off the plane. Don't work too hard. Take care of yourself. Dad is still young, so my baby girl doesn't have to work so hard."
Jessica smiled, "Alright, I'll hang up now, Dad."
"Okay."
After hanging up, the smile on Jessica's face faded a lot.
She turned her head to look at the scenery outside the window. After a long while, Jessica retracted her gaze and called out to Wendy, "Wendy, have you heard anything from Grace these days?"
Wendy paused a bit and then shook her head at Jessica. "Nope. It seems that Mr. Sandoval is sending her out of LA."
Jessica nodded.
Jessica felt that the truth was on the verge of coming out.
She always felt that she had overlooked something, but in her mind, she went through everything that had happened in the past few months, but she did not think of anything special.
Jessica decided to forget about it now.
Sooner or later, Jessica would learn the truth. It was only a matter of time.
After collecting her thoughts, Jessica lowered her head to look at the screenshot Hannah had sent her.
The plotter indeed got something. Jessica was associated not only with Lucas and Terry but also with Caesar and Lance.
Jessica, Caesar, and Lance came out to meet last month on Lance's birthday.
Mona and Hannah also went there that day. It was clearly a party of five, yet only Jessica, Caesar, and Lance were in the photos posted.
The photos were chosen by design.
And Jessica wanted to know who chose them.
Wendy had already sent someone to investigate, so the truth would be learned soon.
The comments online were increasing. More and more people were criticizing Jessica.
Hannah was furious. She called Jessica and said, "Jessica, do you want me to ask my brother to help suppress the news? Look at what they are saying. That's too much! They are all talking as if they are living under your bed."
Jessica put Hannah on the speaker and put her phone on the desk. She then brewed herself a cup of coffee.
Hannah kept cursing. She felt that her mouth was even dry yet Jessica didn't make any sound. She couldn't help but feel worried. "Jess, you didn't faint, did you?"
Jessica came back to her senses when she heard that. "Even I myself am not that on edge."
Hannah heard Jessica's teasing and snorted. "Have you heard what I said? The comments were indeed harsh! Aren't you gonna suppress them?"
"No. The harsher their comments are now, the stupider they will find themselves later."
Spreading the rumors online was a crime. Whoever committed should pay.
Hannah then said, "What's your plan then?"
Jessica smiled. "Nothing big. I'm a good citizen and I play by the rules. But the share price of the Hall Group seems to have dropped a lot today. Don't you think I should defend my legitimate rights?"
Although the Hall family did not lack money, Jessica's "scandal" caused the share price of the Hall Group to fall.
Jessica wouldn't let the rumor spreaders get away.
When Jessica heard the doorbell, she couldn't help but be startled. "I'll hang up now. I've got a guest."
"Who's looking for you at this time? It can't be Lucas, right? Jess, given the context, don't..."
Before Hannah could finish her sentence, Jessica hung up the phone.
Jessica hung up the phone, stepped on her slippers, and walked to the entrance to answer the door.
When Jessica saw Terry, she smiled. "Mr. Davison. Don't you need to go to work today?"
"No. I came to visit you."
