Chapter 14
“Miss Hall, may I ask why you chose the Puth Corporation? After all, we are not yet as qualified
and recognized as the Borka Group in real estate
industry.” said Brian Larson, CEO of the Puth Corporation. He felt quite flattered,
When Brian knew that the Hall Group intended to work with the Puth Corporation, he even rushed back
to LOS Angeles from California to meet with Jessica.
“Mr. Larson, are you saying that you don’t have faith in your own company?” Jessica raised her
eyebrows and asked.
Brian froze for a few seconds before he burst out laughing. He then said, “I believe we‘ll have a pleasant
cooperation, Miss Hall.”
After Brian left, Jessica was in a very good mood. Megan and Watson tried to
make things difficult for Jessica, yet they forgot that Jessica was no pushover.
Shortly afterward, Megan learned that Jessica had replaced the Borka Group, so he called Jessica at
once.
“We have been working with the Borka Group for many years. How could you change that?”
“I think the Puth Corporation is qualified enough. Besides, Mr. Larson‘s offer is 30% lower than Borka’s.”

It was Saturday the next day. Jessica called Wendy and said, “Wendy, have Jessica invited over to a log
e at LURE, Remember, manners are not required for that job.“,
“I see, Miss Hall.” Wendy knew what Jessica was talking about.
Hannah knew that Jessica was about to teach Olivia a lesson tonight, so she came to Jessica with excite
ment. When Hannah saw her bestie, she put on
a sly smile. “Jessica, I‘ve got what you asked for. You will be more than satisfied.
In the evening, when Jessica and Hannah arrived at
LURE, Olivia had been locked up there for more than an hour.
At first, Olivia trembled with anger and kept shouting, but people all ignored her. Later, Olivia‘s fear grew.
Olivia then recalled that one hour earlier, the kidnappers didn‘t scruple to drag her into their vehicle right
on the street. That meant they weren‘t terrified of the Thomas family at all.
At that time, Olivia saw Jessica and Hannah walk in. Her eyes almost popped out. “You are behind this?”
“Surprised?” Jessica said as she took a glass of red wine from Hannah. She then took out a pill from her
bag and threw it into the glass in front of Olivia. “Olivia, I think you should know that I hate to suffer losse
s. And I will make the others pay twice of what I lost.”
“What are you gonna do to me?” Olivia stared at Jessica in horror. Olivia couldn‘t move because
someone held her down.
Jessica walked over with the glass of wine. She held Olivia‘s chin with one hand and poured the red wine
into Olivia’s
mouth with the other. Olivia tried to resist by shaking her head, but Jessica was much stronger than Olivi
a expected
When Jessica finished, the door of the loge was kicked open. It was Lucas and Hari.
Olivia threw herself into Lucas’ arms and cried. “Lucas, Jessica drugged me. She’s about to have me
raped!”
Lucas’ face was stern. He glared at Jessica as if he was going to tear her apart.
Hari seemed to be startled as well. He said, “Jessica, don’t you think you’ve gone too far?”
“Since the Thomas family doesn’t know how to
teach Olivia well, I took the liberty to do the job.” Jessica wiped her slender fingers with a tissue before
she threw it away. She then headed to the door.
When Jessica reached the door, Lucas, with a sullen face, suddenly grabbed Jessica.
“Apologize to Olivia!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Mr. Thomas, are you sure you want me to apologize?” Jessica’s
lips curled up slightly as she looked up at Lucas with her eyes full of indifference. She was no longer
affectionate toward Lucas. Jessica continued, “I don‘t think the Thomas
family could afford the price of my apology.”
“I don’t want her apology. She drugged me. I want the police to arrest her!” Olivia pointed at Jessica and
screamed.
“Sure. I‘ll call the police for Miss Thomas.” Jessica took out her phone and dialed 911. However, before
she pressed the Dial button, she glanced at Olivia and
added, “By the way, I‘ll ask them to look into what happened to me last night. Someone kidnapped me on
my way home.
With that, Olivia suddenly tugged Lucas. She was less assertive, afraid that what she had done might be
exposed.
Thus, Olivia said to Lucas, “Lucas, I’m not feeling well. I want to go to the hospital.”
At first, Olivia was just giving an excuse to avoid the police. Yet after she had said
that, Olivia felt that her belly was
Lucas saw Olivia’s sweat trickling down, so he hurried to take her to the hospital.
Jessica pouted and said regretfully, “I should have come earlier. I should have had her thrown onto the
street once the drug took effect.”
