Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 18

Catherine's desk was in the back row of Jessica. She sat in her seat and stared at Jessica's back. This woman was actually called into the president's office by Mr. Williams. She wondered if Jessica would say something bad about her to the president.

Catherine saw Jessica walk to the pantry. She got up and followed.

"Jessica, I saw you went to the president's office just now. Is there anything wrong?"

"It's nothing serious. Mr. President just asked about yesterday's business trip to Fox Mountain Residence. He values the upcoming art exhibition very much."

"We've been following up on this exhibition. We can't make any mistakes. Is there anything else?"

"What else do you want to know?"

"Don't worry. It's just a small talk."

After Jessica made coffee, she left. The pantry was a place where people crowded with gossip. She didn't want to stay any longer.

Catherine walked behind her and was shocked when she saw Jessica's dress.

She had just read this dress in a magazine. It was a new autumn dress from the Channel. She didn't expect this woman to have it, so she shouldn't underestimate Jessica.

She planned to use a few tricks to kick her out, but it seemed that it was not that easy.

She had only been a third-level secretary for three years, and the new year's rotation test was about to begin. At this time, this beautiful and hardworking Jessica came from nowhere. Catherine worried that she might be knocked off, so she had to take it seriously.

Jessica didn't go to the hospital to see her grandma last night. After what happened last night, she wanted to go home early. She had a lunch break so she went to have lunch with her grandma.

When she arrived at the hospital and saw that her grandma was all right, she felt relieved.

As soon as she left the hospital, a pink limousine stopped in front of her.

After the window rolled down, she saw it was Tina sitting inside.

"Sis, where are you going? I'll take you there." Tina's soft voice made Jessica completely unable to adapt.

"No, thanks. I'm good."

"I wanted to visit grandma just now. When I got to the door, I heard from the nurse inside that grandma was sleeping, so I didn't go in to disturb her. Is Grandma's condition much better?"

Jessica said coldly, "Of course. Thank you for your concern."

"I heard that it was Oliver who arranged grandma to the Williams Hospital, so you didn't use the card I gave for the medical bill. Should you return it back to me?"

"Tina, the White Family owes grandma that five million. It doesn't make sense to pay you back whether I need it or not."

"Sis, I think you're living a good life in the Williams Family now. Why should you care about that five million? As long as you serve Oliver well, you can have much money." Tina could tell that Jessica was wearing more luxury brands now.

Tina's words made Jessica disgusted.

"Oliver's money has nothing to do with me."

Checking the time, she was afraid that she would be late if she continued wasting time on Tina. She waved at the taxi, but it was really difficult to take a taxi at this time in front of a hospital.

Opening the door of the passenger seat, Tina said. "Come on in, sis."

Jessica had no choice but to get into Tina's car.

"Where are you going?"

"The Williams Group."

"Looking for Oliver? You are so close now." Tina looked at Jessica, who was leaning against the window, and said with a smile, "Vincent and I are getting married soon. Sis, will you congratulate us?"

'Why are you so shameless? I really can't figure it out. You stole my fiancé and dared to ask my congratulation?'

Jessica suppressed the anger in her heart and said, "I will wish you both a happy marriage." There was obvious mockery in her tone.

Jessica didn't have time to waste on those two b*tches right now. She wanted to be strong as soon as possible. She would never let them go, including Jason and Marina.

The car quickly drove downstairs to the Williams Group building. Tina watched Jessica enter the building. She twitched her lips and said, "Marrying a disabled president could actually make her arrogant. Oh, such a pathetic thing. She can't tell anyone about what she suffered."

Tina was about to turn around when she saw a group of people coming out of the Williams Group building. The first person she saw was Simon. She remembered him very well since she had talked with him before.

Just as she saw Oliver in front of Simon, she was stunned. She thought she was wrong. She stopped the car and secretly took a picture.

She had peeked at Oliver before the engagement, confirming that he was disabled in a wheelchair. Because at that time, she was not willing to give up marrying into the Williams Family and gave that chance to Jessica easily, who she had always hated.

Tina had always wanted to become a member of Birmingham's upper class because the White Family was just a small family in Birmingham. She could only occasionally attend parties held by the upper class under the cover of her friends.

Once she had said that she was going to marry Oliver Williams, but she was mocked by all the rich ladies at the party.

Only then did Tina know that Oliver was not only crippled in both legs but also impotent.

Although Tina was also the daughter of the White Family, Marina conceived her when Jason had an affair with Marina. Since childhood, she had been accused of being the daughter of a mistress. When she was young, she was often scolded as a fatherless bastard.

It was not until Marina officially married Jason and she had a status in the White Family that she felt that she could finally raise her head up.

When she first came to the White Family and saw Jessica's closet full of famous brand clothes, she hated her past even more. She should have what Jessica had, but it was more than ten years late. She was unwilling.

Later, she went to the same school as Jessica, and the two of them went home together after school. Her classmates often regarded her as a schoolgirl serving Jessica to study, because their temperament was too different.

Jessica looked noble with a calm and courteous temperament, while Tina had a rustic face and an eccentric personality.

At home, with Marina and Jason supporting her, she was happy to bully Jessica. She exerted all the grievance she had suffered outside on Jessica when she came back.

Jessica could only pick up what she didn't want, whether they were things or people.

No matter how much she wanted to be Mr. Williams' wife, she couldn't gamble on her lifelong happiness. If she didn't get married, she still had a chance. Once she married into the Williams Family, according to the power of the Williams Family in Birmingham, she would not have the chance to escape.

So, she began to focus on Jessica's fiancé, Vincent.

Vincent was the second son of the Garner Family and was on the edge position of the Garner Group. Although the Garner Family was far less famous than the Williams Family in Birmingham, it was also a well-known family. The most urgent thing was to get engaged to him so that she wouldn't be forced to marry Oliver.

With Marina's encouragement, Tina finally got what she wanted. She exchanged marriage partners with Jessica and became the winner she thought.

Fate had really made a big joke on her. Oliver had actually cured his disability. Now he was a completely healthy person.. Especially his handsome face made her unforgettable.

She didn't know how she drove home.

Seeing her Tina enter the house in a daze, Marina asked anxiously, "Tina, what happened?"

"Mom, I can't marry Vincent."
