Just as Jessica entered, she heard Arabel say, "Jessica, your phone rang just now. See who is calling
you."
After Jessica left the annual meeting last night, she returned home at night.
Apart from the villa in the city, the Hicks bought a plot of land for Arabel to grow vegetables. It was a
two-hour drive from the city.
Arabel grew up in the countryside, and still wanted to return to the countryside at middle age, but where
she grew up was developed into a city.
Easton bought a piece of land for Arabel in the countryside not far from Hoover City and built a house
there. When they were free, they would live there for a period of time and plant some vegetables.
Jessica said she would not go home for the New Year. Arabel and Easton wanted to celebrate the New
Year in the countryside, so they could harvest the vegetables. They didn't expect Jessica came back
the night before they left.
Jessica slept at home for an entire night. The next morning, she followed her parents to the
countryside.
She had prepared the termination contract, and asked Molly to send it to Carl.
"Alright, I see."
After replying Arabel, Jessica walked over and picked up her phone to take a look.
As expected, it was Carl.
It was normal for Carl to call her after she sent him the contract. Jessica thought for a moment and
decided not to call him.
At this moment, Carl was probably angry. He could handle everything in front of others. But in fact,
when he was angry, he was extremely unreasonable, and would do whatever he wanted.
Even if she called him back now, Carl would not communicate with her rationally.
She decided not to call him. It would be better to call him back after Carl calmed down.
As the next day was New Year's Eve, Carl must be very busy. They couldn't handle this matter before
the New Year, so she could only wait.
"Who is it?" Seeing that Jessica did not call back, Arabel walked over with curiosity.
"It doesn't matter. It's a colleague. He could call my agent if he couldn't find me..."
After saying that, Jessica changed the topic, "Mom, your vegetables grow so well. Let's pick some at
noon today."
"You are just too busy with your work. Do you remember when you came last time?" Arabel asked her
helplessly.
"Last time..." Jessica thought for a moment. She seemed to come here when they bought the land.
She was really too busy. Thinking of this, she felt a little embarrassed.
"Alright, hurry up and eat some fruit."
Jessica followed Arabel to the dining room.
When she suddenly came home last night, her parents did not ask her anything. Instead, they happily
prepared food and bath water for her...
It was as if no matter how old she was, they would always tolerate her. But she didn't spend much time
with them in the past few years, as she was always busy.
"Mom, why don't you ask me why I come home suddenly?" Jessica looked up at Arabel and asked.
"We're happy to have you with us. Why do I ask you the reason?" Arabel smiled and said, "Your father
and I always want to have dinner and celebrate the New Year with you. Why are you more childish
after living alone for years? You're just talking nonsense..."
"Mom, I'm not..."
