Chapter 141
Jessica's birthday party was held at the Ritz-Carlton New York, Battery Park Hotel, a five-star triple-Ahotel.
The banquet was extremely grand. Jessica was wearing an ice-blue gown decorated with pearls, andthe makeup on her face was exquisite. She walked up to Lucas and Terry with a smile. “Mr. Davison,Mr. Thomas, thank you for coming to my birthday party.”
Jessica put on a proper smile, both polite and distant.
Lucas looked at Jessica. He felt a sting in his heart when he saw the distance in Jessica's bright eyes.Terry didn’t seem to mind that. He raised his goblet and clinked it against Jessica's. “Miss Hall, youlook stunning tonight.”
Jessica smiled. “Thank you.”
Lucas, who was standing over, only found the scene annoying. He tightened his grip on his goblet.Lucas tried to say something nice to Jessica, yet he just didn't have Terry's glib tongue.
In the end, Lucas said nothing.
Most of the guests at the banquet tonight were business partners with the Hall Group, so most ofthem knew each other.
Terry and Lucas standing together had already caught people's attention. Besides, Jessica was alsowith them. The three of them were just impossible to ignore.
One of the two guys was Jessica's ex-husband, and the other was her recent admirer.
On such an occasion, Jessica's attitudes towards both Lucas and Terry would ripple a lot.
After the greeting, Jessica nodded politely and smiled. She glanced at Wendy not far away from herand said, “Wendy. help me take care of Mr. Davison and Mr. Thomas.”
As Jessica spoke, she glanced at Terry and Lucas. “Mr. Davison, Mr. Thomas, if you'll excuse me.”With that, Jessica walked away.
Jessica left Lucas and Terry's side, and just as she walked to the entrance, she saw Hannah walking inwith Mr. and Mrs. Howell
Jessica rushed up and raised her goblet. “Mr. Howell, Mrs. Howell, Hannah, welcome!”
Jess, you look amazing today!” Hannah's mother always liked Jessica, and she was generous increditing Jessica's beauty.
Hannah was used to it, and she couldn't help but pretend to be jealous. “Mommy, is Jess the onlyamazing girl here? Doesn't your daughter look good, too?”
Mrs. Howell rolled her eyes at Hannah and snorted. “It's been a long time since I last saw Jessdecked out. While you... You only care about frequenting either a bar or a nightclub. Why can’t youlearn from Jessica and help your father out with his businesg7”
Hannah motioned Jessica to help her out, so Jessica hurried to hold Mrs. Howell's arm and said,“There are a lot of quests today. I can't handle all of them without Hannat an I please borrow her fora while?
With that, Hannah quickly ran to Jegnica in relief and dragged Jessica away from Mr and Mit HowellJessica couldn't help but laugh when she saw how chicken Hannah was in front of her parents."What are you laughing at, Jess? If you're in the mood to laugh at “me, why don't you think abouthow you're going to get rid of your two persistent followers?”
Jessica snorted and pulled Hannah over. “I will just ignore them. Come and let's say hello to theguests.”
The scale of the banquet was large, and it took nearly two hours merely for all the guests to enterthe venue.
Caesar, Lance, and Jessica's other friends also came, but Jessica had no time to have fun with themtoday. She only said hello to them at the entrance
At eight o'clock in the evening, almost all the guests had arrived. Jessica and Hannah returned tothe lounge.
The two had just arrived when they saw Caesar talking to Morgan.
Jessica raised her eyebrows and walked over. Seeing that she had returned, Morgan and Caesarstopped talking and looked at her. “Are you tired?”
Morgan actually didn't like such a luxurious banquet. It wasn't about keeping a low profile. It wasjust that Morgan didn’t want to make his only daughter tired. He hoped that Jessica could have acarefree life.
Seeing Caesar look over, Jessica smiled and nodded to him. Then she looked at Morgan and shookher head. “Not at all, Dad.”
Morgan knew that she didn't tell the truth. He just snorted in disbelief and didn't continue to ask.After the banquet officially began, the emcee made his speech on the stage. And then it wasMorgan's turn to speak. Jessica also went onto the stage to cut the cake.
After Morgan showed his gratitude to the guests, he raised his arm and pointed to Jessica, who wasstanding next to him. Then, he said in a serious tone, “Thank you very much for coming to mydaughter's birthday banquet. As my only daughter, Jessica will inherit all of the assets of our Hallfamily in the future.”
