Chapter 161

Jessica was startled when she saw Lucas.

She quickly walked to the bed and placed her finger under Lucas’ nose. Lucas was still breathing.Lucas didn’t wake up. But luckily, he was just in a coma.

Jessica walked around the room. The door was locked and her phone was taken away.

If she wanted to leave this room now, she could only smash open the window and jump down.Jessica walked to the sofa in the room and sat down.

Obviously, the woman she saved was working with the man who had just been hiding in the room.The woman put on a show and made Jessica sympathize with her before she lured Jessica to theroom.

Catching Jessica off guard, the hidden man locked Jessica and Lucas up in the same suite.

Those two people locked Jessica with Lucas, but they never mentioned what they wanted. Jessicafound that strange.

Jessica and Lucas were both famously rich in LA, but those people did not seem to want to kill themnor ask for money.

Jessica couldn't figure out who was behind this. She failed to think of any reason why they lockedher up with Lucas.

After sitting for a while, Jessica suddenly remembered that she had been stuffed with a pill whenshe was pushed in.

With that, Jessica quickly got up and went to the bathroom, trying to spit the pill out. But a fewminutes had passed, she could thus spat out nothing.

Jessica struggled for a while. Her body was heated up, so she splashed cold water on her face.

At the same time, Lucas, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened his lids.

Looking around the unfamiliar room, Lucas propped himself up and patted his head.

He was at a dinner party where he felt a bit dizzy. Thus, he went to the men's room to sober up. Yethe went blank and fainted there. When he woke up again, he found himself in a strange hotel room.Lucas straightened his thoughts up, he then walked up to the door. Before he reached there, heheard some noise from the bathroom.

“Who's there?"

Hearing Lucas’ voice, Jessica wiped the cold water off her face and walked out. “It's me, Lucas.”“Jessica?”

In surprise, Lucas paused when he saw Jessica. He then came back to his senses and asked, “Whatare you doing

here?

Jessica wore a dark purple A-line dress. Though she wore a blazer on top of the dress, her goodfigure could still be revealed

Lucas flickered his eyes. He found his lips dry.

Lucas always knew that Jessica was pretty. But he rarely gazed at her.

Ever since Lucas learned about that sketch and the text messages, Lucas felt less self-righteouswhen he faced Jessica

“l was tricked over.”

Jessica walked to the sofa and picked up the air conditione control. “It's a bit stuffy here. Do youmind if I lower the temperature a little?”

“Not at all.”

Lucas reached for the doorknob and found that the door was locked. He followed Jessica to thesofa. “Who tricked you into coming here?” “A stranger.” Jessica looked down at the remote control.When she saw the temperature, she frowned.

It was only 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Why didn't it feel cool at all?

Jessica threw the remote control onto the sofa and glanced at Lucas. “And you? Why did you endup here?”

“No idea, either.”

Lucas glanced at the seat beside Jessica, but in the end, he still did not walk over and sit down. Hedidn't think Jessica would want him to sit beside her.

Lucas walked to the bedside and sat down. The two of them looked at each other, but neither ofthem spoke.

Both realized that something was not right after they sat there for a while.

Both felt overwhelmed by a wave of heat that spread through their bodies.

Besides that, Jessica found her throat dry. She even felt a bit restless.

Jessica could feel the change in her body and it had become more and more intolerable. She stoodup from the sofa and met Lucas’ gaze. Her face darkened a bit. “Lucas?”

Jessica was not the only one undergoing the change. Lucas found it even harder to hold his desireback.

Jessica couldn't help but think of the night four years ago, the night she lost her virginity to Lucas,the starting point of her miserable three-year-long marriage.

Jessica did not want to repeat the mistake.
