Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 4

Jessica left after having breakfast.

GrandVille Apartment was a bit far from a public transport area, so she needed to walk a bit.

In the autumn of Birmingham, the weather was volatile, and suddenly it rained. As she left in a hurry, she didn't bring an umbrella with her, so she could only continue walking forward while braving the rain.

Simon just drove out of the villa and saw that the person in front of him was Jessica, so he said, "Sir, do you want Miss White to get in the car?"

Oliver, who was sitting in the backseat, looked out the window and said indifferently, "No. "

As soon as Jessica arrived at the hospital, the nurse Elena was pacing back and forth outside the ward. When she saw Jessica, she immediately ran over and said, "Jessica, you're finally here. I called you just now, but no one answered. "

She was very careful when she was at Oliver's house, and even her phone was set to vibrate. She had been busy on her way, and it was quite noisy outside, so she hadn't heard the phone.

She asked with a sobbing tone, "What happened?"

Elena replied, "Your grandmother is in critical condition. The doctor is in the ward now. "

Jessica's face turned pale, and she felt uneasy.

Finally, the door to the ward was opened.

She ran up and said, " Doctor, how's my grandma?"

The sweaty doctor took off his mask and said, "Miss White, please come with me. "

"We found the patient had the blood complication. The best place to treat this disease is Williams' hospital. Of course, it is a private hospital, so the cost will be higher. You can think about it. "

When Jessica heard that, she quickly thanked him. "Thank you, Doctor. "

She immediately took a cab to the White Group to ask for money from Jason.

Jason saw Jessica rushing over and asked indifferently, " Why do you come here?"

"Dad, you promised me last time that you would provide the best medical resources for my grandma, and now I'm married to Oliver. Please fulfill your promise. "

"Didn't I already give you half a million? You're really greedy. "Jason snapped.

"The doctor recommends transferring her to a private hospital. "

She didn't want to say the private hospital she wanted to transfer to was Williams Hospital, afraid that Jason would find an excuse to reject her.

"Williams Hospital is the best private hospital. If your grandma needs to be transferred, you shouldn't have come to me. You should have to go to your husband, Oliver. "

She underestimated Jason's shamelessness and didn't expect him to refuse so directly.

"He doesn't owe me anything. Why should I ask him for help? You promised me that you would treat my grandma. "

"Didn't I already help you marry Oliver? Do you think that the Williams Family can be easily married into? If you don't have the ability to ask him to help you, that's your own problem. You shouldn't have come asking me for help. "

Jessica clenched her fists, with her nails digging into her palms.

"Jason White!" Jessica couldn't contain the anger in his heart and directly shouted out his name, "No matter what you have done to me, I can tolerate it. This is the most critical moment to save my grandma. How can you be so perfunctory to me?"

Jason picked up the cup on the table and threw it at her, "You b*tch, how dare you to talk to me like that?"

Jessica's forehead bled instantly, the glass shattered all over the floor.

"Do you think you deserve me to talk to you properly?"

"Get out. " Jason angrily shouted.

Jessica walked out of the White Group. It was raining heavily outside, and the blood on her forehead was washed clean by the rain.

'Do I really have to ask Oliver for help?'

She didn't complain that he was disabled and had no sexual ability, but she was punished to sleep on the floor. If she really asked him for help, she didn't know what kind of torture she would have to suffer.

When she returned to the hospital, her grandma had not woken up yet. She sat beside the hospital bed and muttered, "Grandma, as long as there is a chance, I will seize it. "

She didn't come back to GrandVille until the evening. There was no Oliver.

She asked Nanny Daisy, "Will Oliver come back for dinner tonight?"

"The young master has a social gathering, he should be back very late."

"Will he drink?"

"If he drinks, he'll ask us to prepare a decanter soup. "

"If Simon calls, please tell me, I'll prepare the soup."

Jessica spent the whole night in the kitchen, learning how to cook the decanter soup.

When she saw Oliver come back, she took out the soup from the kitchen. Just as she was about to hand it over, he raised his hand and knocked the soup onto the floor.

She was at a loss for what to do. Oliver cast a sidelong glance at her. His deep eyes revealed a complicated expression that she could not understand.

"If you want to drink, I'll get Daisy to make another one for you. "Finishing, Jessica bent down and cleaned up the broken porcelain pieces on the floor. However, she accidentally touched the wound on her palm. The bright red blood droplets dyed the white and delicate porcelain pieces red.

"Don't ever ask about my whereabouts. Be transparent. " Oliver's low and indifferent voice carried a warning.

While Jessica was in the hospital, she received a call from the steward, Alan, asking her to go back to GrandVille early and have dinner at the Williams Family's old house.

It was the first time to meet Oliver's grandfather, naturally, she had to prepare some gifts. She looked up information about Oliver's grandfather online and saw that he liked calligraphy and ink.

Jessica had studied painting since she was a child, and she was particularly picky about the branding of the brushes she used to use. She knew Mr. Henry, who was known for making brushes, and she had been ordering brushes there.

Because she couldn't afford anything expensive right now, she went to the Henry Brush Shop and bought a set of high-quality brushes.

After that, she went back to GrandVille Apartments.

The maid had already prepared clothes for her. It was a classic autumn suit.

She simply put on makeup to make herself look more decent.

When she went downstairs, she saw a Rolls-Royce park in the yard. The driver was waiting by the side. When he saw her walk over, he immediately helped open the car door.

Jessica had been thinking along the way about how she failed last time when she tried to please Oliver, and she wondered if she could get his grandfather to help.

The driver drove the car into the old house of the Williams Family, and Jessica got out of the car and saw a man in a white suit. He looked similar to Oliver, and he looked very refined.

When the man saw her, he was stunned at first, but his expression quickly returned to normal. He smiled and asked, "You are my sister-in-law, right? I'm Lambert. Welcome to the Williams Family's old house. "

Lambert's voice was deep and magnetic. These were the sweetest words she had heard recently. No one had ever welcomed her. The White family didn't treat her as a family member. Oliver didn't even let her sleep in the bed.

She smiled slightly, "Thank you, I'm Jessica."

As soon as Jessica finished speaking, she heard the sound of a wheelchair behind her.

She turned around, met Oliver's gloomy eyes, and the smile on her face froze.
