Claiming Her Back novel (Jessica and Lucas) novel Chapter 69

Chapter 69 

Jessica pressed her fingers to her temples. “I have been treated unfairly many times. Are you going to rectify them one by one?”

“Yes.”

He answered without hesitation. Jessica looked at him, her heart pounding.

Jessica had never been bullied when she was young, but Hannah had been.

Hannah looked happy and carefree now, but she was timid in school. She would only cry when some seniors took protection money from her in junior high. She didn’t dare to tell her teacher.

It was Jessica, Caesar, and Lance who found the seniors and beat them up. They didn’t regret it even when the school called their parents.

But Jessica turned into a totally different person after marrying Lucas. She had to put up with everything Lucas did, even after they divorced.

Jessica’s friends wanted to revenge for her, but she had suffered so much. Revenge was not enough.

Jessica thought Terry was just joking. However, Terry had parked the car at the entrance of the hotel that she had just left.

Terry stopped the car and glanced at her. “We’re here.”

It took some time for Jessica to realize that Terry wasn’t joking.

Terry wasted no time. He got off the car and walked to Jessica’s side. Then he opened the door. “Let’s go.”

Jessica loosened her seatbelt and frowned. “Terry...”

He reached out his hand and pulled her out of the car. “Don’t be afraid. I’m here.”

As he spoke, he walked into the hotel with her.

Terry was tall and walking fast. Jessica had to trot to catch up to his pace.

They went to reception, and Terry asked, “We’re looking for two Miss Cheeks. Could you check for me which room they are in?”

Only then did Jessica know that he was being serious.

Just as she was thinking, Terry turned to look at her. “Are you afraid?”

Jessica looked at him, raising her eyebrows. “Of course not.”

When was she ever afraid of something?

Terry smiled, “Well, that’s best.”

The smile on Terry’s face was brighter, He pivoted around and walked to the elevator. Jessica followed.

Terry looked into her eyes and said firmly. “I know you didn’t like it that Lucas used you as a shield for so many years.”
