Chapter 38

The man, dressed in a suit, was about forty or fifty years old. But as a man of his age, he was still of proportional built.
The watch on his wrist was a classic and limited model of Vacheron Constantin. There were only ten worldwide. and it was priced at more than 1 million dollars.
Olivia said in disgust, “I don’t know him. Maybe he is Jessica’s sugar daddy. Jessica is rich now. She just said that 400,000 meant nothing to her…”
“Does your brother know about it?”
Trissy’s words reminded Olivia of something. She fished out her phone quickly to take a few photos, “My brother doesn’t know yet. I will tell him now!”
Trissy averted her gaze onto Olivia and frowned slightly. “But Lucas divorced her. Your brother probably doesn’t want to know about it.”
After that, Trissy added, “After all, Jessica was once Lucas’ wife. It’s better not to spread this out. Let’s keep it a secret. If somebody else knows about it, it will disgrace her and the Thomas family too.”
Olivia thought Trissy’s words made sense, but she entertained another thought. Nevertheless, she nodded, “Trissy, you’re right.”
Morgan had disapproved of Jessica marrying Lucas in the very beginning, and now he hated Thomas’s family members even more.
As soon as they left the restaurant, Morgan couldn’t help but ask, “Are they Lucas’ younger sister and sister-in law?”
Jessica did not want to mention Thomas’ family members in Morgan’s presence, but Hannah chipped in, “Yes, Uncle Hall!”

Morgan sneered, “The Thomas family is really ill-bred!”
“Yes!” Hannah agreed.
When Morgan thought of his daughter’s three-year-long stay with the Thomas family, he became even more distressed. “In those three years, you…
“Dad, I’m divorced now, so I don’t give the Thomas family a damn now.”
Jessica didn’t want to see Morgan feeling sad. She glared at Hannah and changed the topic. “How long do you plan to stay here?”
Morgan snorted, “I’ll go to the company tomorrow. We’ll talk about the details later.”
Jessica nodded, “Let me drive you to the hotel to have a rest.”
As Morgan had just had a meeting in the morning and spent over two hours on the plane hurrying here in the afternoon, he was indeed a little tired. “Why not?”
Taking Jessica’s warning glare, Hannah didn’t dare to say anything else and drove her car from the parking lot home,
Jessica stopped her car at the entrance of the hotel. Then she turned around to look at Morgan who was sleeping and called softly, “Dad?”
Morgan was woken up by her call suddenly. He raised his head and gasped from the pain in his neck.
“Do you suffer from cervical spondylosis again?”
Morgan raised his hand and pressed his neck. “I’ve got used to it. Go back and take a rest.”
“I’ll take you to the room and give you a massage.”
As time flashed past, Morgan got old. For the first time, Jessica regretted being willful in the past three years.
Morgan had been tortured by cervical spondylosis for years. In the past, when Jessica was at home, she would massage him from time to time to relieve his pain. Over time, she became even more skillful.
But as it had been three years past since she gave Morgan massages, she wasn’t as skillful as she had been. She couldn’t control her strength. If she used too much strength, it would pain Morgan. If she did it too gently, it would be pointless. So Jessica had to keep asking him to adjust her strength. “Dad, how do you feel?”
“Try harder,” Morgan answered.
