Chapter 57
Strictly speaking, it was not a bracelet, it was a simple male necklace.
Jessica had found it in her wrist after waking up on that night of the mistake four years ago.
She had always thought that the necklace belonged to Lucas, so she had worn it all the time as a treasure. Even after the divorce, she decided to give Lucas up, but she was still reluctant to part with the necklace.
Apart from that, she wore it to remind herself that she and Lucas were a mistake from the start.
But now. Terry told her that the necklace was his, which meant that the person who was with her that night four years ago was Terry, not Lucas.
Terry took the necklace back and tied it around his neck.
Jessica had been wearing it as a bracelet for more than three years, and now he was wearing it as a necklace.
She stood there and looked at the necklace on his neck. After a while, she said, “So I don’t own you anything now, right?”
Terry didn’t say anything. He leaned forward and looked down at her, a dozen centimeters away from her. “No, Jessica.”
As he spoke, he lifted her chin and lowered his head to kiss her. Then he licked his lips and said, “You still own me a lot, Jessica.”
Lucas had just walked out and happened to see Terry and Jessica kissing.
He stood there, his gaze sweeping over them. And when his gaze fell on the necklace on Terry’s neck, Lucas felt as if his eyes had been pierced by a needle.
He remembered the necklace. It was simple and elegant. He once went back to his room to get something and saw Jessica take it off. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have noticed that it was a man’s necklace.
Lucas had a good memory. In the three years Jessica married him, the necklace had almost never left her wrist.
Even though he knew that it was a man’s necklace, he never cared about it.
He didn’t love Jessica, and he certainly didn’t care who she loved.
But now, Lucas had the urge to go over and pull the necklace off Terry’s neck.
Before Lucas could recover from his impulsive thoughts, Terry’s voice rang out, “Is Mr. Thomas alright?”
Terry slightly raised his eyebrows, as if he was showing off to Lucas.
Lucas’ expression was gloomy as he looked straight at Jessica behind Terry. “I have underestimated you.”
He was worried that she would be fooled by Terry, but it turned out that he was a fool.
Jessica’s good mood was ruined by Lucas, and her unhappiness was completely evoked by his words.
Jessica took a step forward and reached out to hold Terry’s hand. She then looked into Lucas’ mocking eyes and chuckled. “Mr. Thomas, I didn’t know that you once overestimated me.”
Lucas was choked by her words and his face turned even uglier.
Terry looked down at Jessica and tightened his grip on her hand. “Jessica, he is nothing. Don’t take it to heart.”
As he spoke, he tidied the hair on Jessica’s cheek, led her to the car, and opened the door for her.
Jessica leaned over and sat in the car.
