"Will you re-marry me?" He asked lying on the hospital bed after surviving an attempted murdur. "Yes. A thousand times!" She nodded with tears in her eyes. Jessica had dreamed of this moment for more than 10 years! She had had a crush on Lucas at 14 when he saved her from a group of gangsters. Eight years later, she married him despite all opposition from her parents and friends. But Lucas chose to save and defend another woman rather than her in face of danger. Sick of this toxic marriage, Jessica decided to leave and embark on the journey of vengeance. Three months later, she came back, as a billionaire CEO instead of that country girl in his eyes...
"Trissy, please don't send any messages to Lucas late at night. He's my husband."
Trissy was Lucas' first love, but she had married Lucas' elder brother. These days, Trissy had been pestering Lucas all the time.
That troubled Jessica a lot, so she had to talk to Trissy in person.
"Only legally. He is in love with ME. But you don't have to worry. I will make him leave you." Trissy sneered, not taking what Jessica said seriously.
Today was Justin Thomas' 70th birthday. He was the CEO of Thomas Group, the best-known enterprise in Los Angeles.
Suddenly, the banquet was interrupted by some servants out in the garden.
"Help! Help! Jessica and Trissy fell into the swimming pool!"
People hurried to the pool. Before everyone else could react, Lucas had already jumped into the pool.
However, Lucas ignored his wife, Jessica, who was struggling in the water. Instead, Lucas carried Trissy to the ground and left without looking back.
People finally came to their senses too and followed Lucas to the villa.
After a long time, Jessica finally made it to the ground. People had all left. Nobody cared about her life at all.
Ever since married Lucas, Jessica had gotten used to being ignored by the Thomas family.
Jessica was about to go back to change her clothes, but she was stopped by Lucas at the stairs.
"You are so vicious! How could you push Trissy into the pool? Don't you know she's pregnant?" Lucas looked at Jessica coldly. Jessica's whole body was drenched to the skin.
"How is Trissy? Lucas, listen to me. I didn't push her." Jessica explained eagerly.
"Trissy lost her baby. Before she fainted, she said it was you that pushed her into the pool. I don't believe Trissy would lie." Lucas said angrily.
"I didn't do that. Why don't you believe me?" With her eyes turning red, Jessica looked at Lucas sadly.
"Shut up! Keep your made-up story to Grandpa." Lucas ignored the despair in Jessica's eyes. He stood up and pulled Jessica's arm, intending to take her to the meeting room.
As the most beloved grandson of Justin Thomas as well as the future heir of the Thomas Group, Lucas had always been impartial. Besides, Lucas hated Jessica, his wife, a lot.
"I can walk by myself." Jessica got rid of Lucas' hand.
"Then follow up." Lucas didn't give Jessica a second look. He turned around and walked quickly to the meeting room.
Looking at Lucas' tall figure from the back, Jessica felt she was overwhelmed by sorrow. She used to be so obsessed with Lucas, yet Lucas hated her so much.
The birthday banquet was interrupted. And Trissy lost the baby she had with the eldest grandson of Thomas' family. Justin was furious.
Thus, when Justin saw Jessica walk in, he directly threw his mug over. The hot coffee splashed all over Jessica. Jessica couldn't help but cry out in pain.
Justin yelled at Jessica, "Kneel down!"
Jessica asked calmly, "Why should I?"
Justin looked at Lucas angrily and said, "Lucas, are you waiting for me to explain to your wife?"
Jessica was about to retort when Lucas pressed her shoulder.
"If you can't calm Grandpa down today, I'll divorce you." Lucas kicked Jessica in the knee, forcing her to kneel on the ground.
"I am your wife! How can you do this to me?" Although Jessica knew that Lucas did not love her, she could not bear it when her husband, to whom she had been married for three years, was so merciless to her.
Jessica felt a sharp pain in her knees, even though it was far less than the pain in her heart.
"Jessica, if you confess to Trissy and are willing to accept punishment, I may still allow you to stay in this house," Justin said to Jessica.
"I already said that I didn't push Trissy, so I won't apologize."
Before Jessica could finish, Justin had already thrown another mug over.
The mug shattered on the ground, and the shards hit Jessica, but she did not move.
"Lucas, I hope you can persuade your wife. For God's sake, Trissy is still in a coma in the hospital. What a poor child!" Justin stood up and left the meeting room.
