Chapter 226
Terry stepped forward and explained the situation to the police with a smile, “My name is Terry Davison. Half an hour ago, when we were driving normally, the car ahead suddenly braked. I had no choice but to brake too. That’s why I hit their car. The driver then got out of the car and asked me for 10,000 dollars. I smelt alcohol on that gentleman. They were all drunk, so I didn’t want to argue with them. I pretended to agree to the compensation and asked my friend, Jessica, to call the police, but before my friend could call the police, this gentleman took an iron rod from the trunk…
“Their request was very rude. As a man, I couldn’t bear to see my friend get insulted like that. So I stopped them. But the gentleman was angry and tried to hit me with the rod. The other gangsters joined the fight, too.”
Trey stated the incident clearly. And in the end, he tilted his head and smiled, pointing to the car that had been smashed by Billy. “Officer, the drive recorder of our car has recorded everything. I think it can be used as evidence.”
Another officer then said, “Captain, the other five were all drunk.”
The policeman frowned and said, “Bring them back to the station!”
As he spoke, he turned to look at Jessica and Terry with a much better attitude. “Mr. Davison, Miss Hall, please follow us to the police station to assist in the investigation.”
“My pleasure.”
Terry smiled and looked at Jessica. “It won’t take much time.”
Jessica looked at Terry. She felt that everything that had just happened was weird. It was an accident, but everything was taken care of too smoothly.
Jessica had a hunch that something was not right. The wind at night was cold and strong. Jessica glanced at Terry. He was only wearing a white shirt. As the wind blew, the shirt was stuck to his body, revealing his beefy muscles.
Jessica looked away and went to the police station along with Terry.
The two of them had just arrived at the police station when Terry’s secretary, Leonard, was already waiting for them at the entrance of the police station.
Leonard paused when he saw Jessica, but he quickly recovered. “Mr. Davison, Miss Hall, good evening.”
Jessica smiled. “Good evening.”
Terry glanced at Leonard. “We haven’t given our statements yet.”
Leonard hurriedly nodded. “Alright, then I’ll wait here.”
Jessica found the secretary quite interesting. Jessica smiled secretly before she went inside to give a statement to the police,
That took Jessica nearly an hour. And since Jessica’s car was smashed badly, it was sent to go through an evaluation then.
Terry thus drove Leonard’s car to send Jessica home. As for how Terry’s secretary left, Jessica had no idea. It was already midnight when Terry drove Jessica back to her apartment.
Jessica took off Terry’s blazer she was wearing and returned it to Terry. “Thank you.”
Terry looked at her and didn’t take it over. I’ll go upstairs with you.”
Jessica glanced at him and didn’t refuse.
When he got out of the car, Terry walked around and put his blazer on Jessica’s shoulders again. “Give it back to me upstairs.”
It was midnight, and no one was in the elevator. It went directly up to Jessica’s floor.
“Miss Hall, you don’t mind me taking you to work tomorrow, do you?”
Jessica.”
Two men’s voices sounded at the same time. The guys were both stunned.
Jessica reacted quickly. She first glanced at Lucas, then slowly took off the blazer and returned it to Terry. “I’m home, thank you.”
She looked calm and her smile was proper.
Lucas couldn’t pick any mistakes from what Jessica had done.
However, when Lucas saw Terry who was beside Jessica, he felt annoyed. He didn’t expect that Terry would even smile at him.
Lucas’ face immediately darkened. However, when he looked at Jessica again, she looked quite calm. He didn’t even have the chance to question what had happened between Terry and her. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
He was not here to argue with Jessica.
In the end, Lucas held his questions back. He watched as Terry said goodbye to Jessica. The two of them parted. Lucas was the one who was about to remarry Jessica. Yet now he seemed to be the irrelevant one there.
After Terry left, Jessica looked at Lucas and asked, “What brought you here?”
Lucas looked down at Jessica and frowned. He wanted to ask her why she was still with Terry so late at night, but in the end, he didn’t. “Grandpa wants us to hold the wedding as soon as possible.”
“Oh, sure.”
