Jessica pressed her fingers to her temples. “I have been treated unfairly many times. Are you going to
rectify them one by one?”
“Yes.”
He answered without hesitation. Jessica looked at him, her heart pounding.
Jessica had never been bullied when she was young, but Hannah had been.
Hannah looked happy and carefree now, but she was timid in school. She would only cry when some
seniors took protection money from her in junior high. She didn’t dare to tell her teacher.
It was Jessica, Caesar, and Lance who found the seniors and beat them up. They didn’t regret it even
when the school called their parents.
But Jessica turned into a totally different person after marrying Lucas. She had to put up with
everything Lucas did, even after they divorced.
Jessica’s friends wanted to revenge for her, but she had suffered so much. Revenge was not enough.
Jessica thought Terry was just joking. However, Terry had parked the car at the entrance of the hotel
that she had just left.
Terry stopped the car and glanced at her. “We’re here.”
It took some time for Jessica to realize that Terry wasn’t joking.
Terry wasted no time. He got off the car and walked to Jessica’s side. Then he opened the door. “Let’s
go.”
Jessica loosened her seatbelt and frowned. “Terry...”
He reached out his hand and pulled her out of the car. “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”
As he spoke, he walked into the hotel with her.
Terry was tall and walking fast. Jessica had to trot to catch up to his pace.
They went to reception, and Terry asked, “We’re looking for two Miss Cheeks. Could you check for me
which room they are in?”
Only then did Jessica know that he was being serious.
Just as she was thinking, Terry turned to look at her. “Are you afraid?”
Jessica looked at him, raising her eyebrows. “Of course not.”
When was she ever afraid of something?
Terry smiled, “Well, that’s best.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the receptionist got the number. “Mr. Davison, they are in Room
1701.”
“Thank you.” This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Then, he turned to Jessica and asked, “1701. Shall we?”
Terry was provoking her. Jessica knew that Terry did it on purpose, but she still nodded. “Why not?
Let’s go.”
She was curious about how Terry was going to revenge for her.
The smile on Terry’s face was brighter, He pivoted around and walked to the elevator. Jessica followed.
There was no one in the elevator. Terry walked in and turned around, looking at her with a faint smile.
His meaning was self-evident.
Jessica pursed her lips and walked in, too.
The numbers on the panels of the elevator kept changing as the elevator climbed up. And soon they
reached the 17th floor. The elevator door opened. Terry looked at her without speaking.
Jessica walked out and went to Room 1701. She tilted her head and looked at him with a faint smile,
just like the one Terry did to her, “Mr. Davison, how are you going to help me?”
Terry looked into her eyes and said firmly. “I know you didn’t like it that Lucas used you as a shield for
so many years.”
Jessica was surprised to hear it.
She did not expect that Terry would know her thoughts.
Everyone who didn’t know the whole story would think that Jessica went to Lucas in a fury because she
couldn’t get over the love between them.
But Jessica only did it because she could no longer put up with Lucas’ behavior.
She was the beloved daughter of the Hall family, after all.
She could live with the fact that Lucas did not love her, but she could not accept that Lucas treated her
like a fool from the beginning.
That was a hard limit for her.
Jessica looked at Terry and raised her eyebrows. “So, what do you plan to do, Mr. Davison?” Terry
looked at her and smiled faintly. Then, he took out his phone and gave Lucas a call.
He put Lucas on speakerphone and placed the phone between Jessica and him.
The call was answered for a few seconds. “Mr. Davison?”
Lucas’ voice came from the phone, cold and stiff.
Terry said to the phone while staring at Jessica the whole time, “I’m just curious how important the
younger Miss Cheek was to you, Mr. Thomas.”
