Claiming Her Back novel (Jessica and Lucas)
Chapter 140
Chapter 140
Justin looked a bit embarrassed when he heard Lucas. Justin then tossed a sharp glance at Olivia.
“Olivia has been quite willful and always provoked Jessica. That was Olivia’s fault. You don’t need to worry about that. Marry Jessica again and leave Olivia to us.”
Justin looked at Olivia and said, “Last time, I only locked you up in the Black House for three days. If you stir up any trouble again, you’ll see how hard your life can be.”
Olivia was very surprised and dissatisfied when Justin made her sound like a troublemaker. She wanted to refute, but when she heard Justin’s warning, she lost the guts. She snorted and said, “I won’t, grandpa.”
“Alright, Lucas, come with me.” Justin stood up and said to Lucas.
Lucas nodded to Rebecca and followed Justin to the study.
Dwayne helped Justin to the sofa in the study and left.
Lucas closed the door and walked to Justin.
Lucas didn’t know why Justin was so eager to have him remarry Jessica. Lucas said, slightly helplessly. ‘I don’t have any thoughts.”
“I know about that patch of land in the north. You yielded it to Jessica, didn’t you?” Justin could not help but slap the table.
Jessica didn’t ask for money when we divorced. This is what I owe her.” Lucas’ golden eyes flickered slightly.
However, Justin did not believe it at all. “You owe her billions of dollars? Is Jessica the daughter of the POTUS?”
Lucas couldn’t argue with Justin. He wanted to say something, yet he didn’t.
What Lucas had done proved that he had feelings for Jessica. Yet Lucas was puzzled why his feelings for Jessica only surfaced after they had divorced.
Lucas was sure Jessica’s family background wasn’t the reason.
Justin stared at Lucas in disappointment before he took out an invitation. Jessica will have her birthday next week. Morgan intends to hold a birthday party for Jessica in New York. This will be the first time for Morgan to publicly hold a birthday party for Jessica. It’s unprecedentedly important. You should understand it. This is the invitation letter. You know what to do, don’t you?”
Lucas took over the invitation. He lowered his head, with his golden eyelashes concealing the emotions in his eyes.
Lucas was about to leave when Justin said, “Lucas, your father’s marriage was arranged by the family. He never had a happy life, and your mother is not happy, either. Although I want you to take Jessica as your wife, I won’t force you if you really don’t like her.”
Jessica had no plans for her own birthday. She didn’t take a fancy to a posh birthday party
But Morgan intended to take advantage of this birthday party to formally introduce Jessica to the upper class of New York. It could also prevent some idiots from bullying Jessica
Morgan had been in the business world of New York mall for many years, and he got to know a lot of people. The birthday party of Morgan’s only daughter was thus matchless.
Jessica returned to New York three days earlier. In addition to supervising the preparation of the entire banquet, she had to take part in the rehearsal as well.
