Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 9

Oliver stood up, grabbed Simon's cell phone, and looked at the photos. He saw Jessica and Lambert together in a few different places, and it seemed like they had been together for a long time.

Especially in front of the hospital, Jessica looked at Lambert with a smile, This was an expression that Oliver had never seen before. Jessica had always been expressionless in GrandVille. The more he looked at it, the angrier he got. He directly slammed his phone onto the ground.

Seeing the broken cell phone screen on the floor, Simon first comforted Oliver, "Sir, perhaps there is some misunderstanding, I will go and find out. "

Simon went downstairs to the inpatient department to ask about Jessica's condition and was told that Jessica's grandmother could be admitted to Williams Hospital, which was arranged by Lambert.

He immediately reported this news to Oliver.

When Oliver heard that, his cold eyes were instantly filled with ice.

"Chase them out. "

Simon naturally knew who to drive away.

"Is that OK? Are you really going to break up with Lambert? Also, what would Mrs. Williams think? "

Oliver hated Lambert, and they seemed peaceful on the surface, and as his father's youngest son, he took the president's seat because of his father's will. However, his position in the company was still not very stable. Lambert had always been in Jeff's good graces. He was afraid that he would even offend Grandpa Jeff.

"Do I need you to question my decision?"

When Simon heard that, he shut up and went downstairs to do what Oliver told.

Jessica returned to Grandma's original hospital, went through the discharge procedures, and planned to transfer to Williams Hospital after lunch.

As she was on her way to buy food for her grandma, she received a call from Williams Hospital. When she heard that the hospital couldn't receive Grandma, Jessica felt like she had been struck by lightning.

She asked the paramedics to take care of Grandma for dinner, and then she took a taxi to Williams Hospital to find out.

Jessica asked the receptionist about the situation.

"Miss White, you're here to settle the refund procedure, right?"

"Why would I refund? I've already completed the hospitalization procedure. I want to ask your supervisor, what exactly do you want?"

"Why did I hear that someone was using Lambert's name to take advantage of the situation and complete the hospitalization procedures, but unfortunately was discovered by the superiors, so they had to withdraw from the decision to receive patients. "

In the morning, the receptionist, who had been smiling coyly at her, was now sneering at her without showing any mercy.

Jessica remembered seeing Oliver at the hospital in the morning, and the last time he had dinner at the Williams' old house, Oliver didn't look at Lambert right in the eye. In this hospital, other than him, there was no other person who could ignore Lambert.

Lambert had already helped her once, and Jessica didn't want to bother him again because of her own business, making the estrangement between the two of them even greater.

She walked out of the hospital's main door and felt dizzy. She leaned against the wall to rest. In a trance, she saw a black Bentley driving out of the hospital's main door. It was Oliver's car. She immediately perked up and wanted to go forward to interrogate it. Before she could get close, she fell to the ground and watched the car drive away. Soon, it disappeared into the traffic.

Since her grandma could not be transferred to another hospital now, she could only go through the hospitalization procedures in the original hospital.

Jessica settled Grandma down, went straight back to GrandVille, and went to the guest room to sort out her things.

She took the place of Tina and married Oliver, completing the previous agreement with Jason, and there was no need for her to stay with the inhumane devil in this ice house.

Jessica was waiting to clear this thing out with Oliver. Just like on the day of the wedding, she waited for Oliver to come back in the early hours of the morning.

When Oliver entered the room, he saw a well-dressed woman sitting on the sofa, and the room was filled with Jessica's anger, and he thought this stupid woman wouldn't lose her temper.

"Oliver, you're the one who stopped my grandmother from being transferred to the Williams Hospital?"

She called Oliver by his name for the first time, and now she didn't think about it at all.

"It was me, so what?" Oliver suppressed his anger and said in a low and cold voice, "You don't deserve to call my name. "

"Of course I don't deserve it. When I just got married, you said I was dirty and let me sleep on the floor. I don't deserve it. " Jessica choked on her sobs as she said," If that's the case, I'll leave the Williams Family and you inhumane devil. "

"Do you think you will come and go as you please?"

"What? Do you want to tie me up with that marriage certificate? You are so wise and noble. Don't tell me you don't even know who you married. "

"Aren't you afraid that if you go, I'll destroy your entire White Family?"

"If the White Family cares about me, why would I marry you?"

"It seems like marrying me makes you feel wronged. That's why you went out to hook up with other men. "

'Oliver even slandered her, and she has been taking care of his pride, and she has been very careful not to mention anything about his lack of sexual ability. In the end, she would never be able to escape from being humiliated, so let's just hurt each other.'

"What right do you, a man without sexual ability, have to care if I hook up with a man or not?" Jessica raised her chin and looked into Oliver's eyes with anger.

Oliver was so angry that he laughed, "It looks like the women of the White Family are all the same."

"No matter what kind of woman I am, don't you marry me? Do you think I want to marry you? Before I marry you, I knew nothing about you. I have no interest in knowing you. For my grandmother, even if you're a nobody, I'll marry you. "

'This Jessica is crazy. She actually compared me to Nobody. I could have any woman I wanted, but this tactless woman slandered me!'

"Get out of here. " Oliver pushed the wheelchair, leaving a back view for her.

"Do you think I want to stay here? Being with you is torture. "

Jessica slammed the door and went downstairs.

At the hospital.

Grandma saw that Jessica had been staying at the hospital for the past few days. She even brought her luggage with her, so she asked, " Jesse, did something happen?"

"It's fine, Grandma. Just rest assured and take care of yourself. I'll find you a better doctor. I'll definitely cure you. "

Jessica sat in front of the hospital bed and caressed Grandma's thin and old face. She felt as if her heart had been pricked by needles.

She thought she was useless, there were better medical conditions, but she can't provide them to Grandma. Thinking of this, she hated Oliver more.

She told her grandmother she was going to transfer her to a better hospital, but she didn't, and she was even chased out of Williams' home.

She lived in the hospital, and it was not a long-term solution. She still needed to rent a house by herself, so she had to find a job first. She couldn't afford to do nothing at all.

Jessica recalled the news of a part-time painter at the entrance of the Henry's Brush Shop, so she rushed over to ask.

She just so happened to be in a selection contest where the contestants can choose any one of the flowers and birds painted by artists from the Song Dynasty to copy.

Jessica chose to copy the Lily, which was a painting depicting a lily. The painting had fine branches and thick leaves, flowers growing everywhere, white flowers and green leaves. The color was plain and clean, and it was very pleasing to look at.

It had been a long time since she had practiced painting. When she first started drawing, she was a little unfamiliar with it, but she slowly got into the state.

Jessica persisted in drawing for an entire afternoon before finally handing in her work. Jessica persisted until the end before leaving.

No matter how she finished, she tried her best to get this part-time job.

The staff at Henry's Brush Shop let the candidates go back and wait for the news.

Lambert just came to Henry's Brush shop to get a custom-made brush. He saw a familiar back view of the group of people who had just left. It seemed to be Jessica.

At this time, the director of the painting department, Sally, just came out of the studio inside.

"What are you doing here?"

"Mr. Williams, we're recruiting some part-time artists here, and we just had a painting competition " Sally replied.

Lambert walked into the studio with interest, looking at the copies on the table, and there was a picture of a lily with the name Jessica written on it.

'It seemed that I was right. It should be Jessica.'

Lambert had just come back from another town when he heard that Oliver had chased Jessica's grandmother out of Williams Hospital. He knew that she had already left GrandVille and was about to look for her, but he didn't think that she would be looking for a part-time job outside.

Sally saw Lambert stop in front of Jessica's painting. She walked over and asked, "Is this drawn by someone you know?"

Lambert pointed at the painting and said, "The color arrangement is not bad, and she can dye the white so thoroughly with her own hands. It looks like she has some skills, but it seems that she hadn't practiced for a long time, the lines she drew don't seem to have any elasticity at all."

"Mr. Williams, you are really an expert in the literary and painting circle. You really hit the nail on the head. "

"Recruit her, then give me all her paintings. " Lambert calmly said, "Give her ten times salaries than the market price. Just tell her that your Henry's Brush Shop values her potential. "
