Chapter 7
Three months later, in Sheraton Los Angeles San Gabriel Hotel.
Jessica and her secretary Wendy had just taken their seats when they heard someone call out behind them, “Mr. Thomas.”
There were not many Mr. Thomases who were qualified to attend this business banquet in Los Angeles. Jessica subconsciously looked back.
As expected, the person who came was Jessica’s ex-husband, Lucas Thomas.
What a “pleasant” surprise!
Wendy, sitting next to Jessica, stood up and greeted Lucas politely, “Mr. Thomas, this is Jessica Hall, general manager of the Hall Group.”
“Mr. Thomas, I’ve long been looking forward to meeting you.” Jessica smiled and extended her hand toward Lucas.
Lucas fixed his eyes on Jessica. She seemed to have become someone else. She looked vibrant. Her wavy chestnut hair, which used to be blond, was worn down on her shoulders.
With a faint smile and a pleasant voice, Jessica looked polite and decent. She looked at Lucas as if she didn‘t know him at all.
