Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 31

The next day, Simon took Jessica to a private hospital.

"Madam, we're here."

Jessica got out of the car helplessly. She didn't know what the doctor would say this time. She was extremely uneasy. She didn't know if the man would completely ignore her condition and let the doctor do the abortion.

Perhaps today was her last day. If she died, she only hoped that Oliver would let her grandma stay in Williams Hospital.

"Simon, promise me one thing."

"Madam, please say it."

"If anything happens to me, please take care of my grandmother."

"Don't say that, madam. The doctor said it was just a small operation and you will be fine soon."

The nurse brought her to draw blood first, then a female doctor with glasses received her and did an ultrasound for her.

Jessica lay there, tears streaming down her face.

Before Jessica could ask for the results, the doctor got up and left.

The doctor called Simon to the conference room. "Sir, this young lady can't have an abortion. Not only is her blood type RH negative, but she also has a familial disease. Once abortion is performed, it is very easy to cause massive bleeding and complications, which will lead to a high probability of death."

As soon as Simon heard this, he was stunned. He thought he had found the most skilled doctor to do this small operation. Before he came, he promised the president that he would solve it today. He didn't expect it to be so complicated.

In Williams Group.

"Grandpa, why are you here?" Oliver got up and went to the door to welcome the old master.

"I came to take a look. I heard you arranged for your wife to work in the company."

"Yes, grandpa. She has nothing to do at home. She wants to work at the company."

"Be careful not to affect other colleagues."

"No one here knows her identity."

"It's more important than anything for you to have a child as soon as possible."

Oliver nodded, with a gloomy look.

Jeff continued, "You just took over the group. There are so many people staring at you. The last time you dealt with your uncle's matter, you made many directors worried. You were young and a little arrogant, and you didn't know what was important. Now that you're married, you should have a child immediately. You should show them that you're faithful and responsible. You should set up a good image of yourself, as a father and a husband."

"Thank you for reminding me, grandpa."

"Your father trusts you and is willing to hand over the group to you. Don't let him down. I'm just worried about your temper. It's better that you can be as prudent as your brother. I'm saying it for your own good."

Suddenly, Oliver's phone rang. When he saw that it was Simon calling, he didn't answer it in front of his grandfather.

He didn't expect it to be done so soon. That woman was a real liar.

The phone rang again as soon as he hung up.

"Grandpa, I have something urgent to deal with. I'll ask the driver to take you back first."

Jeff saw that his grandson indeed had phone calls to answer, so he left.

After Jeff left, Oliver picked up the phone, "What's the matter? Why do you keep calling? Just come back if you're done."

"Mr. Williams, it's not done yet."

"What happened?"

"Mr. Williams, the doctor said that Madam can't bear an abortion."

"What doctor are you taking her to? The doctor can't even perform a small operation?"

Simon had already felt Oliver's stormy anger on the other end of the phone.

"You have to make it done anyway."

"Mr. Williams, it's a matter of life-or-death. We'd better be careful."

Simon explained the reason that the doctor told him to Oliver in detail.

"Come back first."

On the way back, Jessica asked Simon what the doctor had said as the doctor told her nothing back then.

Simon was tight-lipped, "Madam, Mr. Williams will tell you what you should do when we go back."

It seemed that there was really no way for her to have an abortion.

"Then let's go straight back to the company. I asked for leave yesterday. It's not good to be absent from work today."

"Yes, madam."

Jessica went to the office and found the desk full of documents. She went to the pantry to make coffee to refresh herself.

At this time, Catherine was standing in a corner chatting with a few female colleagues from other departments.

"Wow, she is here."

"We don't know who's behind her. She's so arrogant. She asked for leave yesterday and also missed work this morning."

"I remember I saw her get out of an old man's car yesterday. It should be a luxury car. Could she be a kept mistress?"

It was hard for Jessica not to hear these words. When she returned to the office, the group of female colleagues were still talking and laughing behind her.

Then Catherine came in, "Jessica, you finally come back. I helped you with all your work yesterday. These are today's work. Please finish it today."

Jessica helplessly sorted the documents on the desk and put them in order of urgency. Just then, Simon came in.

Simon saw the documents on Jessica's desk and flipped through them. 'Didn't I arrange for Catherine to deal with these yesterday? Why did these documents appear on Jessica's desk?' When he remembered what Oliver said yesterday, he suddenly understood that he almost neglected his job. It turned out that Jessica had been bullied by Catherine in the office. As the assistant of the president, he hadn't dealt with this problem in advance. He was really confounded.

Simon called the security guard.

When the security guard came upstairs, he confiscated Catherine's computer. Catherine was stunned. Seeing Simon outside the office, she ran out and asked, "Simon, what's going on?"

"Go to the personnel manager and he will tell you what happened."

The security guard attracted a lot of attention when he came upstairs, causing colleagues from other departments to come and see what was going on. People in this administrative office were all the CEO's men. There was a scene of security chasing people away. Could it be that something was going to happen to the top management of the company? Many people were hiding behind and gossiping.

Everyone saw Catherine crying and going to the personnel supervisor. The personnel supervisor said helplessly that there was nothing he could do. Catherine called to her distant relative who used to have the best relationship with Toby Williams, who had a very high status in the Williams Group. After Toby was expelled to Southeast Asia, her relative was also marginalized, and now it was difficult for him to protect himself.

When he received her call and knew that the president was going to chase her away, he naturally did not dare to help her.

Catherine walked to Jessica, who was busy working in her seat, "Did you do that?"

Jessica was confused, "Don't blame others for what happened. You deserve what you've got. Now you just lose a job. If you don't change, you won't know what you will lose."

"It's you, you b*tch. I won't let you go."

Catherine completely lost her composure and reached out to grab Jessica's face. The security guard went up to hold her and threw her out of the building.
