Claiming Her Back

Chapter 9

‘Jessica somebody posted our performance at LURE on YouTube. It is now a top-trending video!”

Hannah called Jessica in the morning and told her the big news.

Wed better stay low-key’ Jessica said smilingly, and then walked into the bathroom to wash up.

You stayed too low-key all the time. That’s why the Thomas family bullied you for such a long time!”

Hannah shorted and said, “Tu leave you be. Time for breakfast now.’

Jessica hung up the phone. She was somewhat distracted when she looked into the mirror.

Jessica recalled how she and Lucas got married. Their first night together was an accident. After that,

Lucas offered to marry Jessica. Jessica knew that Lucas felt sorry and his offer only served as a

remedy.

After that Jessica tried to tell Lucas about her family background more than once, but Lucas always

said he didn’t care. He just wanted to get back to work.

Later, Jessica accidentally heard Olivia complain to Rebecca about how low–born Jessica was. Olivia

even teased Jessica in front of Olivia’s girl friends. Finally, Jessica didn’t feel like explaining anymore.

How ridiculous!

In Thomas’ villa, Olivia also noticed the video on YouTube. Unlike Hannah, Olivia wasn’t happy at all. In

fact, she was about to blow up

Jessica had been out of sight for a few months. But when she came back, she suddenly became

popular on the Internet. She was even known as the new goddess? Olivia couldn‘t believe it.

Thinking of how miserable her life had been because of the video Jessica posted, Olivia hurried to

make a call.

Goddess? Then Olivia would teach the so-called goddess a lesson.

Knowing nothing about the strings Olivia had been pulling, Jessica had arrived at the Hall Group for a

meeting.

Jessica was parachuted in as the general manager, so a lot of rumors about her were spread in the

company.

Many thought that Jessica was the mistress of an executive officer at the headquarters of

the Hall Group, given that no one could find out about her profile. In the entire company, Wendy was

the only one who knew Jessica’s identity

Megan Bell, the current CEO, was among the most anxious people.

Megan thought that his higher-ups wanted to replace him with Jessica, so he had been secretly picking

on Jessica all the time

Jessica did not mind that. She loved challenges

*Jessica, this is the invitation for the Blackthorn’s anniversary celebration.” Wendy handed an invitation

letter to

Jessica.

The Blackthorn Group belonged to Hari’s family. Thus, the Thomas family would definitely be invited to

the celebration

Hannah loved to be prepared. She had a designer make the dresses in advance and took Jessica to a

beauty salon for beauty treatments.

When Hannah and Jessica finally arrived at the hotel, the celebration banquet had already been going

on for half an hour.

Tonight, all the upper-class ladies in LA will show up. Those who once mocked Jessica were yet to

know how

embarrassed they would be to see Jessica at the celebration.

Coincidentally, Jessica met Rebecca and Olivia when she got out of the car.

Rebecca and Olivia didn‘t recognize Jessica in her fancy dress.

“Who is that young lady? She looks so pretty. I have never met her before,” Rebecca said

in admiration.

“Mom, I don‘t know her, either. Why don‘t we ask for her number later and introduce her to Lucas? Don‘

t you want him to remarry?” Olivia nodded at Rebecca‘s comment on Jessica.

Jessica and Hannah walked in front of Olivia and Rebecca. Hi ving heard their conversation, Jessica

and Hannah smiled at each other.

Jessica wondered how Olivia would ask for her number later.

In terms

of social status, Hari‘s family was second only to the Thomas family in Los Angeles. Tonight, almost all

the upper–class people in LA showed up.

After Jessica

walked in, she saw many familiar faces. Apparently, those people were astonished to see Jessica.

After all, Jessica was just an ordinary person. After leaving the Thomas family, she was a nobody. Yet t

his nobody somehow showed up at an upper–class banquet. Everybody would be surprised.

Once Olivia walked into the hotel, her friend Lia pulled her over and whispered into her ear, “Olivia, look

over there. Isn‘t that your brother‘s ex–wife?”

“What are you talking about? How could that Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

bitch be here?” Olivia hated it when others mentioned Jessica.

Lia chuckled. She pointed at Jessica and said, “Look! Doesn‘t that woman in a red dress look like Jessi

ca?”

Olivia looked over and found that it was the pretty lady she saw at the entrance. She could not help but

sneer. “No way. Jessica is not as pretty as…”

As soon as Olivia said that, she saw Jessica turning around. When recognizing Jessica, Olivia froze.

“Why is Jessica here?”

What right had Jessica to be there?
