Claiming Her Back novel (Jessica and Lucas)

Chapter 25

 

Chapter 25
The auction had come to an end. Lucas was the bidder of the night. He first bought a painting for 2 million dollars and then another for 35 million dollars.
Han also believed that Lucas acted kind of like a super-rich sucker tonight.
Han tried to tell Lucas that the paintings were not worth the money spent, yet he chose to shut up when he saw Lucas’ grim face.
After the auction was over, the four of them met at the stairs.
Hari greeted Jessica, “Jessica!”
Jessica smiled faintly and responded, “Mr. Hartley.”
Jessica nodded and then left with Terry.
Lucas watched them off. His golden eyes darkened. He then left the venue as well.
Terry’s black Rolls-Royce was quite eye-catching. Jessica got into the car and found that Terry was gazing at her.
Jessica looked at Terry doubtfully, only to hear the man chuckle and say, “Not bad.”
“I’m sorry?”
Terry didn’t explain but slowly drove out. “Are you hungry now?” Jessica didn’t take Terry’s response seriously. “Not really.”

Terry looked at Jessica with a smile. He then kept quiet.
Half an hour later, the car stopped at Jessica’s place.
Jessica unbuckled her seat belt and just raised her head, only to find that Terry handed over a gift box.
Jessica raised her eyebrows. “What is this about, Mr. Davison?”
“It’s a thank-you gift for you,” Terry said with a smile.
Jessica did not take it. She looked at Terry and smiled flatly. “A thank-you gift? Or simply a gift?”
“What’s the difference? It’s for you anyway.”
Terry looked quite assertive. In the face of his glimmering brown eyes, Jessica couldn’t get mad at him.
Yet Jessica didn’t feel like accepting gifts from men. Thus, she said, “I’ll take nothing but your kindness.”
Terry raised her eyebrows, but he didn’t force Jessica.
Jessica got out of the car and said, “Eyes on the road, Mr. Davison.”
“What if my eyes are not on the road?”
Jessica didn’t see this coming.
Jessica had never heard of people cursing themselves like Terry. She was thus lost for words.
Terry curled his lips. “Just kidding. Go home then. I know you must be desperate to get rid of me.”
“Actually … not that desperate.”
Jessica closed the car door and headed for her apartment.
Terrys eyes were smiling when he watched Jessica off.
Shortly after Jessica netumed to her apartment, she received Hannah’s call, “You’re on Twitter’s trending topic doain I heard that Lucas and Terry were fighting over something. Was it all about you, Jess?”
Jessica snorted and logged in to Twitter. As expected, Jessica saw the competition between Lucas and Terry was among the trending topics
Thinos were a bit different this time. For some reason, Jessica became what the two men were fighting over.
