Remarriage: His Billionaire Ex-wife

Chapter 9

　　"Jessica, do you think we should have a concert? We didn't have enough fun yesterday!" Hannah called Jessica in the morning and told her the big news.　　"The whole upper—class social circle is going to be shocked when you do that. We'd better stay low—key," Jessica said smilingly, and then walked into the bathroom to wash up.　　"I am the queen! Why should I stay low—key!" Hannah snorted and said, "I'll 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 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 the topic of every LA upper—class girl.　　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 Hartley's anniversary celebration." Wendy handed an invitation letter to Jessica.　　The Hartley Group belonged to Hari's family. Thus, the Thomas family would definitely be invited to the celebration.　　Jessica loved to be prepared. She had a designer make the dresses in advance and went to a beauty salon for makeup and hairstyle.　　When Jessica and Hannah 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, and Olivia even complimented Jessica for looking like a beautiful lady in her outfit.　　Jessica, who was walking in front, couldn't help but snicker in her heart when she heard her compliment.　　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 this 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 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 Jessica?"　　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?Author's note: Search it on Google Play and read all chapters.
