Chapter 32
Wendy supported Jessica from behind and asked, "Ms. Hall, are you all right?"
Jessica shook her head and said, "I am still sober. I'll go to the restroom to wash my face."
Wendy said, "I'll go with you."
Jessica turned back to look at Wendy and smiled, saying, "Thanks. I can go to the restroom by myself. Go call a chauffeur."
Since both Jessica and Wendy drank wine, they could not drive.
Seeing Jessica was doing fine except for occasional unsteadiness when walking, Wendy did not insist on accompanying Jessica to the restroom. Wendy nodded and said, "Okay. I'll call a chauffeur."
"OK," Jessica answered. Jessica looked up at the sign and walked step by step to the restroom in her high heels.
This wine had such a strong effect.
Fortunately, the restroom was not far away. The waitress told Jessica to turn around the corner and the restroom would be there.
"I'm sorry."
Jessica bumped into someone on the corner. She immediately became much more clear—headed. Jessica looked up and saw that it was Terry. Jessica smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Davison. What a coincidence!"
Terry looked at Jessica and slightly narrowed his brown eyes. Terry said, "Are you drunk?"
"A little," Jessica answered.
Terry looked at Jessica, not saying whether he believed it or not. "Where are you going?" Terry asked.
Jessica pointed to the restroom behind Terry.
Terry looked back and smiled, saying, "Go ahead."
Jessica could not continue to talk to Terry anymore at that moment. Her face was hot and her mind was not so clear.
Jessica nodded and walked directly to the restroom. After pouring cold water on her face, Jessica immediately sobered up a lot.
Jessica took a tissue to wipe her hands. Then she looked at herself in the mirror. Her cheeks were red and her eyes were bleary. Jessica thought, "No wonder Terry asked me if I am drunk."
Jessica smiled. She tossed the tissue she was using to wipe her hands into the trash basket and turned around to leave the restroom.
As soon as Jessica went out, she saw Terry who had not left yet. Jessica was stunned for a moment. Jessica asked, "Mr. Davison, are you waiting for me?"
After washing her face, Jessica was much more soberer.
Terry looked at Jessica simperingly and said, "My future girlfriend is drunk. I think I should stay with her."
Jessica's face was already hot, and hearing Terry's words, her face was even hotter.
"My secretary is waiting for me outside."
"Then I'll send you out."
Terry's request was rational, and Jessica did not refuse him.
Jessica had just taken a few steps out of the elevator when she was hit by a woman running towards her. Jessica was already a little unsteady on her feet, and after being hit by that woman, Jessica swayed a few times. She tilted her body and was about to fall to the ground.
Terry, who was beside Jessica, reached out to pull Jessica. Jessica immediately steadied herself and stood still.
As soon as Jessica stood still, she looked up and saw Trissy and Lucas walking in from the hotel entrance.
At that moment, Jessica was completely sober.
Trissy also saw Jessica, and then subconsciously looked at Lucas and asked, "Honey, is that Jessica?"
Lucas did not say anything, but his eyes were full of coldness.
Jessica quickly retracted her gaze as if she did not see Trissy and Luca. Jessica walked past Trissy and Lucas.
Terry slightly narrowed his brown eyes and glanced at Lucas simperingly. He then followed Jessica out.
Watching Jessica and Terry walk away, Lucas retracted his gaze with a cold expression. Lucas then looked at Trissy coldly.
Trissy finally found a chance to return to LA, and she was afraid that Lucas would ask her family to send her out of LA again.
When Lucas looked at Trissy like that, Trissy was somewhat scared. Trissy said, "Honey, Luna is..."
"You shouldn't call me honey."
After Trissy heard what Lucas said, her face became pale. Her whole body stiffened.
"Ms. Hall."
Wendy had already called for a chauffeur and he would be here in ten minutes.
Jessica nodded. The wind was cold at night. Jessica was even more clear—headed than before. She stood at the entrance of the hotel, looking at a car not far away. She was a little absent—minded.
When Wendy saw Terry, she was slightly stunned. Wendy greeted Terry, "Hello, Mr. Davison."
Terry glanced at Jessica and asked, "Did you call a chauffeur?"
"Yes."
Wendy knew that Jessica didn't like Terry and that Terry was a playboy.
Ten days ago, Lucas had specially called Wendy and asked her to be on guard against Terry.
So when Terry asked Wendy about it, Wendy only answered and didn't say anything else.
