Chapter 272
Chapter 272
Jessica was shocked by what Wendy had said. Five years ago, it could be said to be a farce. But if Oscar did have something to do with Justin's death, it was murder.
Jessica realized how serious the whole thing was. She had instructed Wendy to gather more evidence and then hurriedly returned home.
Jessica finished reading the report Wendy had given her, and she felt that Wendy's guess was reasonable.
For the sake of certainty, Jessica called Wendy, asking her to share the report with Vincent.
Jessica sat in the living room, carefully thinking about the whole thing. She always felt that Luna wanted to marry Lucas simply for the sake of the wealth of the Thomas family.
Unlike Oscar, Luna wouldn't have gone as far as murdering.
Luna wouldn't risk going into prison. If she did end up in prison, she wouldn't be able to enjoy a luxurious life.
Therefore, it was very likely that Luna had been used by Oscar.
When Jessica thought of this, she took out her phone and called Luna.
Ever since Luna found out that Justin was dead, she fell into a great panic. She hated Oscar for using her, but she did not dare to settle accounts with him.
She parted from Trissy and hid in the slums of Los Angeles.
She lived in great fear every single day.
When Jessica called, she was startled.
"Hello? Who are you?" Luna's voice trembled.
"Miss Cheek, don't tell me you can't even recognize my voice," Jessica said.
"Jessica?" Luna's voice suddenly rose. She said impatiently, "Why are you looking for me? Do you think you haven't harmed me enough?"
"I harmed you? Miss Cheek, aren't you too greedy?" Jessica said lightly, and then she continued, "But I called you this time because I want you to do something."
"What is it?" Luna asked doubtfully.
"Turn yourself in." After Jessica finished speaking, the other side of the line fell silent.
"What... what are you talking about? What did I turn myself in for?" Luna's voice began to tremble uncontrollably.
"Crimes will be found out. Luna, if you turn yourself in now, there's still hope to reduce the punishment. Otherwise, murder is not a small crime," said Jessica seriously.
"I don't know what you are talking about!" Luna immediately hung up Jessica's phone and then blacklisted her.
But after doing all this, Luna still felt very scared.
She knew that Jessica must have found something. Otherwise, she wouldn't sound so sure.
No way! She couldn't let Jessica tell on her.
Looking at the dark sky, Luna suddenly realized that as long as she could shut Jessica's mouth for good, no one would find out about her crime.
It was a sleepless night. Jessica didn't sleep well. But when the alarm clock rang, she still had to get up and wash up.
Her work had to go on.
Jessica started the car and was ready to go to work. When she passed the first intersection, the traffic light on the road had changed.
She was about to stop and wait for the traffic light when she suddenly realized that her brake had failed.
Jessica broke out in a cold sweat. She tried her best to slow down, but she couldn't. At this time, an SUV was preparing to pass.
Just as Jessica's car was about to crash into the car, a third car beside Jessica overtook hers, pushing her car to the side of the road.
The front hood of Jessica's car was smashed open, while the side of the car that forced her to stop got a huge dent. Its front hit the utility pole.
Jessica endured the dizziness and hurriedly got out of the car. She tried to open the door.
She did not expect Lucas to be in the car.
It turned out that Lucas had read the report Jessica had given him and planned to look for her. When he arrived at Jessica's place, Jessica had just left. So he followed Jessica along to the company.
When Lucas saw Jessica drive through the intersection while the red light was on, he didn't think much before he drove his own car to stop her.
"Lucas! Lucas!" Jessica looked at the blood dripping down from Lucas' forehead, she panicked. She was in great fear of loss.
"I'm sorry..." Lucas felt his vision blur. He tried to confirm Jessica was alright before he said that.
Jessica looked at him and recalled a lot. He saved her back then and today again.
She suddenly felt that everything didn't matter that much.
"Lucas, wake up. I've forgiven you." Jessica was in tears.
Lucas heard the siren of the police car. He knew that Jessica was safe and finally passed out.
Jessica's car was tampered with, and the investigation of the incident quickly came to an end. It was Luna who did it.
Her desperation caused her to fall into prison.
However, she quickly explained the matter of Oscar urging her to harm Justin.
Soon Oscar was taken away by the police from the Thomas Group.
Lucas fell into a coma. After the proper treatment, he recovered quite well. But he had not woken up.
Jessica put down all her work and stayed with Lucas at his bedside every single day.
Three days later, the TV was playing the news of Louis' illegitimate son being arrested. Jessica felt a slight movement in her hand and she hurriedly looked down.
Lucas opened his eyes and looked at Jessica affectionately. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
Jessica was overjoyed. She was about to get up and call the doctor.
However, Lucas held her hand. Lucas looked at Jessica and asked, "Will you marry me again?"
Tears flowed from Jessica's eyes. She nodded and said, "Yes."
