Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 45

Before Tina went to GrandVille Apartments, Marina had prepared her all kinds of medicine, and put it in a bottle for common drugs, just in case.

Tina had mastered the dosage and efficacy of every kind of medicine as if she was about to become a professional pharmacist.

She spent a lot of time staying in the kitchen. Now she was getting along well with domestic helpers in the kitchen.

The servants in GrandVille Apartments liked Tina because she was generous and often gave them small gifts. And Tina was especially generous to Nanny Winnie.

Servants' attitudes also varied from person to person. Usually, they had no contact with Jessica because she either went to work or stayed in the hospital. She didn't spend much time at home. Even at home, she was alone, looking depressed, making it difficult for the servants to get close to her. So in comparison, they all preferred the new Miss White.

Servants were not surprised that a rich man had many women in the house. But they would gossip behind their backs.

When Jessica came back from her business trip, she saw Tina chatting with Nanny Winnie in the yard.

For some reason, when Jessica saw that happy scene, she felt a little upset. Perhaps she remembered that ever since Tina and Marina lived in the house of the White Family, they had cozied up to the servants of the White Family. At that time, they would change the servants who were opposed to them. Later, all the servants in the White Family became their accomplices and bullied Jessica.

She was still young at that time. Jason didn't listen to her at all. He always said why Tina never said the maids treat her badly.

It seemed that it was Jessica who was wrong.

It was only after she grew up and became tough that the situation began to improve. But her miserable memory was inadvertently aroused. Bad feelings swarmed into her mind, making her very uncomfortable.

Jessica also knew that the servants were all instigated by Marina. But even so, she could not forgive them.

Seeing that Jessica was back, Nanny Winnie immediately put on a straight face and walked over. She lowered her head and said, "Madam, you're back." She took the luggage and followed Jessica.

Jessica said to Nanny Winnie, "Thank you, Winnie. Please put my luggage in the guest room."

Tina looked at Jessica with a tired face. "Sister, you're back. I thought you didn't come back last night. What happened? Mr. Williams told me that you went on a business trip. Don't you have to pay rent to live here, do you? So that's why you work so hard to earn money."

When Tina first came here, she pretended to be nice. But in a few days, her evil nature showed up.

"Are you going to tell me that Oliver slept in your room last night?" Jessica twitched her lips and sneered.

Tina's look immediately went bad and she groaned angrily. "Anyway, I have his baby in my belly. I don't know if Oliver knows who your baby's father is."

It seemed that Jessica's words really provoked Tina.

"Tina, it's useless for you to provoke me. If you have the guts, ask Oliver to kick me out of the house. Maybe I'll look up to you then, or you just a sh*t in my eyes."

"You..." Tina was so angry that she couldn't speak.

She obviously wanted to kick Jessica out. If Jessica was driven out of the house, she wouldn't have Oliver's protection. When Jessica was outside alone, she would have no money or power, which helped Tina control her more easily.

However, through talking with the servants, she realized that although Oliver didn't like Jessica, he didn't intend to kick her out.

Tina thought to herself that even if Jessica stayed in GrandVille Apartments, Jessica would always be a loser.

After the conversation in the yard between the two of them, Jessica didn't see Tina for several days.

Jessica was in a much better mood with one less annoying person in front of her, and she ate one more slice of bread at breakfast.

She hadn't been pregnant for a long time. So she still went to work and was always the first employee to arrive in the office. Of course, her driver who took her to work every day gave a lot of help.

As a secretary, there were too many things to do every day. Occasionally, she would have a cup of coffee and rest in the tearoom.

Today, Jessica felt somewhat uncomfortable, so she made a cup of hot coffee to warm her stomach.

Jasmine came in and saw Jessica's pale face. She walked up to Jessica and whispered, "Jessica, are you not feeling well?"

Jessica knew that her discomfort was probably related to her pregnancy. The matter of her pregnancy had always been kept secret in the company. She was slim so her belly wasn't noticeable in the early stages of pregnancy.

She was afraid that when others found out that she was pregnant, they would definitely ask about her husband and so on. At that time, the situation would be very awkward. When she told them the first lie, she had to follow it up with countless lies.

"Jasmine, I'm OK. I feel a little cold. I'll be fine soon after drinking something hot."

"Why don't you get off work early? What else do you have? If you need my help, just tell me. Don't worry."

"Okay, I'll ask you for help if I need you. Thank you."

Ever since Jasmine came to the office, the two of them got along very well. Jessica began to do her work more smoothly, and they became friends. She felt much better and delighted. The doctor had been telling her to keep in a happy mood during pregnancy.

Jessica looked at her phone, realizing that she had been resting for a long time. She got up and was about to leave when she accidentally saw the chair under her stained with blood.

Jasmine saw it too. "Jessica, are you on your period?"

Jessica's ruddy face suddenly turned even paler. She thought, 'OMG! I can't have my period now. Is something wrong with the baby?'

She calmed down, then answered Jasmine, "Jasmine, I'm going out for a while. If someone asks for me, just tell him I have something urgent to deal with."

"Hurry up. I'll do what I can do for you."

"Thank you."

After Jessica finished speaking, she went downstairs. Then she took a taxi to the nearby hospital.

It was difficult to get a taxi after work.

Jessica walked to the nearest hospital. As she walked, she felt that her eyes suddenly darkened and she lost consciousness.
