NovelEnglishChapter 26
Justin walked in with a stein faceHe was not happy to see Jessica at all
Sitting in her chak, Jessica rained her eyetuows and asked, “Mr. Thomas, what do I one you?
“It has only been a few months since we last met, yet you have already forgotten all the rules of the
Thomas fanty You didn’t even nerve me any coffee.”
Jessica chuckled when she heard what Justin said. “This place is not a café. If you want any coffee,
you should go to Starbucks. There happens to be one nearby. Go downstairs, turn left, and walk 200
meters. Youll see a Coffee is served there.”
*Jessica! You have no respect for your elders, and you have no proper manners at all. You have been
disgracing the Thomas family out there, I’m gonna…”
“Mr. Thomas, you seem to have forgotten that I’ve already divorced Lucas.”
Jessica’s lips curled up when she spoke, yet her eyes weren’t smiling at all. “This is my workplace. If
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou have nothing specific to say, please leave now. If you do, please say it bluntly.”
Jessica paused a bit before she went on, “I’m not among the most patient people. You’d better hurry
up. Otherwise, I’ll run out of patience.”
Justin realized that Jessica was no longer his timid granddaughter-in-law she used to be. She meant to
drive Justin out all the time.
Justin Thomas was so angry that his face darkened at once. “Since you want me to say it bluntly, then I
will. How much does it take for you to leave LA and give up on Lucas?”
Jessica thought she misheard. “Are you saying I’m hitting on Lucas by deliberately ignoring him?”
Justin Thomas snorted. “I know exactly what tricks you are playing, Jessica. You made such a big fuss
back then just to smear our reputation. After you returned, you kept making scenes, only to attract
Lucas. He can’t see you through, but I can.”
Jessica couldn’t help but laugh out of anger. “Then you must be too old to be rational. You are so
blind.”
After saying that, Jessica glanced at Wendy, motioning her to send Justin off. “Wendy, lead the way out
for him.”
“Jessica, I came here for your sake. If you don’t agree today, you will regret it!”
Justin believed that he had already given Jessica enough respect by coming here personally. Yet
Jessica didn’t listen to him. She even railed against him.
“Wendy, if you can’t send him away, let the security guards take it over.”
Jessica didn’t feel like talking to Justin anymore. With that, she headed out of her office.
Jessica left her office and went downstairs to meet Hannah in the cafeteria,
“What took you so long?” Hannah asked.
“That nasty old man from the Thomas family just came.” Jessica shrugged.
“You are such a bitch!” Suddenly, a female voice chimed in from behind Jessica. Jessica froze a bit
when she turned around to see Olivia. Yet Jessica soon figured out what was happening at once.
Jessica asked, “What can I do for you, Miss Thomas?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOlivia always looked down upon Jessica. Though Jessica wasn’t obedient in the Thomas family, she
would never have referred to Justin as “the nasty old man”.
Yet Jessica just did when she talked about Justin visiting her.
Olivia trembled with anger. “Apologize, Jessical”
On the side, Hannah chicked her tongue and said, “Miss Thomas, is there anything wrong with your
brain?”
Jessica glanced at Hannah, motioning her not to speak. Then she asked Olivia, “Apologize for what?”
“You just cursed my grandfather by calling him a nasty old man!”
Hearing that, Jessica raised her eyebrows. “I was telling the truth. Did that count as cursing?”
“What the hell…”
Olivia blew up. She caught sight of the drink on the table and then tried to throw it at Jessica.
Jessica knew that Olivia would always use her physical strength to make up for her lack of intelligence.
Thus, Jessica had already come to her senses when Olivia glanced at the drink.
When Olivia reached out for the drink, Jessica hurried to grab her by the wrist. Jessica grabbed her
waist harder so that Olivia couldn’t get rid of her.
Jessica forcefully lifted the glass and the yellowish mango juice splashed onto Olivia’s face.
Olivia was dumbfounded when the sticky juice fell over.
