Hannah nodded. "Luna and Trissy are so disgusting. Trissy used to pretend she had an affair with Lucas to embarrass you, and Luna pretended to be pregnant. She even hired someone to dress up like Lucas. They even spread rumors to ruin your reputation. I don't think you can let them get away again, right?"
Jessica smiled and said, "don't worry, I won't let anyone who dares to provoke me get away."
That included Lucas, Trissy, and even Justin... Jessica would see to it that they learned their lessons.
When Hannah heard that, she knew that Jessica already had a plan in mind. She could not help but feel a little excited. "What's your plan?"
Jessica glanced at her. "I've told you. Haven't decided yet."
It was true. There were so many people involved this time. Besides, there was one trap after another.
Since Jessica wanted to settle the scores, she naturally had to learn from the worst and give them a little surprise.
Hannah was a little disappointed. "Fine then."
Hannah had said what she wanted to say, and she blew a kiss on Jessica. "I won't disturb you anymore. I'm going to Mona's pub!"
Jessica sat on the sofa and waved at Hannah. "Sure."
When she got in the car, Hannah found a Maybach parked beside her car.
How posh!
Someone seemed to be sitting in the car, but Hannah wasn't interested. Yet she still took a photo of the car and sent it to Jessica.
Jessica glanced at it and only replied, "Boring."
At that moment, the doorbell suddenly rang.
Jessica raised her eyebrows, feeling that there were too many guests visiting her home today.
It was Lucas. Jessica didn't see that coming.
When the door opened and Jessica saw Lucas, the smile on her face immediately faded.
She held the door frame with her hand and took a step forward. Obviously, she would not let Lucas in.
Jessica stood in front of the door and looked at Lucas. "What's the matter, Mr. Thomas?"
Lucas looked at Jessica with his head bent. She seemed ready to go to bed. Jessica was in a nightgown and didn't wear any makeup. Her skin was fair but also a bit pale. He could even see the dark circles around her eyes.
She looked less domineering and tender this way, different from the woman she usually was.
For some reason, Lucas suddenly recalled Jessica's messages on the phone.
The girl who had edited those messages seemed to be exactly the one in front of him.
Lucas was absent-minded for two seconds before he said, "The news..."
Hearing this, Jessica chuckled. "I saw it. And then?"
Lucas frowned and said, "It's all my grandfather's fault. He visited your parents without being invited."
"And you are here to...?"
"I can clarify that Grandpa went to your parents' house just to apologize for what happened before, not to let us get married again."
"And then? What would the people on the Internet think? They would think you said that because you didn't want a wife whose reputation was ruined." Jessica sneered.
Lucas was a bit lost for words. "That's not what I mean. But it is indeed tricky."
"Why didn't you stop your grandfather before he went to my parents' place? Why did someone happen to see him go there all the way?"
Lucas paused for a moment. "Jessica, he is my grandfather after all. He is an elder. I can't interfere too much with what he does. I did tell my grandfather not to interfere in my business."
This was the first time he had said so much to Jessica, without any stop in the middle.
After Jessica heard what Lucas said, she suddenly smiled. "You tried to stop him, but you failed. Do you think what you have said will make a difference to my life? Do you think I will forgive him because of what you've said? Or even thank you for trying?"
Lucas froze for a moment. He looked at Jessica with a stiff look. "I'm sorry."
Jessica pursed her lips and sneered. "You don't have to, Lucas!"
With that, she raised her hand and slammed the door.
Lucas put on a stern face at the bang.
Lucas had seen that Jessica might refuse his excuse and apology, but he didn't expect her to be so hard on him.
Lucas looked at the door in front of him. Jessica had shattered his dignity.
