Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 52

Alice turned to the shop assistant. "Call the police."

When Jessica heard that she wanted to call the police, she knew that she had to stop it. She still had important things to do at night, and she could not explain them clearly to the police in a short time. She quickly asked, "Miss Zamani, are you sure you want to call the police?"

"Are you afraid?" Alice thought that Jessica was about to admit defeat, and she raised a really big smile.

Jessica raised her phone and shook it. "Come on, I'll show you something."

"What tricks are you trying to play? No matter what, no one can save you today."

Jessica unhurriedly opened the video and handed the phone to her.

Alice turned angry when she saw herself deliberately stepping on the hem of her skirt in the video. Her domineering expression quickly sank. "You filmed the video?"

After that, she quickly turned off the video and pressed the delete button.

When Alice saw the video, she was still stubborn. She sent the shop assistant out again, leaving only the two of them in the fitting room.

Jessica was amused to see her hurriedly deleting the video. Jessica wanted to tease her even more. "Miss Zamani, you're too smart. You look so smart in front of the hard evidence and delete the video so quickly."

"Now that the video has been deleted, you can say whatever you want and see who will believe you."

"I knew you were going to play tricks again. How could you assume I only had this one video. Before I gave it to you, I had already sent the video to the mailbox, just in case you do that."

When Alice heard this, she immediately became stunned. "What do you want?"

"Didn't you just say that you want me to kneel down and admit my mistake? Now it is your turn."

"Seriously?" Alice couldn't believe it. She had never been humiliated like this.

"That's right. Give you back what you did."

Seeing that Jessica insisted, Alice said, "Jessica, I'll pay for this dress. What dress do you want? Pick one yourself and I'll pay for it, okay?"

"No." It sounded there was no room for bargaining.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll tell Oliver and ask him to fire you?" Alice found being gentle didn't make sense, so she threatened her again.

"Then tell him now. See if your call is faster than my network. It will make you popular."

Alice finally had no choice but to kneel down and apologize to Jessica in the fitting room.

"I accepted your apology. If you ever consider slandering me again in the future, I will make you feel worse than this time. Do you understand?"

Alice was so angry that she couldn't speak. She just nodded and obediently took two dresses to pay.

It was only then that Jessica remembered to check the time. It was almost time. She didn't even buy clothes and didn't prepare anything.

At this moment, her phone rang again. It was Simon. She remembered that she had hung up on him just now.

She quickly swiped the answer button on her phone. "Hello, Simon."

"Madam, are you ready now?"

"Ah, I'll be ready soon."

She hung up before Simon could say more to her.

As soon as she opened the door of the fitting room, she saw Simon standing in the shop, still looking at the time on his watch.

"Simon, why are you here?"

"Mr. Williams asked me to pick you up early to the meeting."

"Simon, just wait for me to go upstairs and buy clothes."

At this moment, Simon asked the clerk who had just served Jessica to come over. "Go and get this lady a dress that fits her."

"Yes, Mr. Simon."

Seeing this, Jessica whispered, "Simon, I can't afford it. Don't let her do it."

"Don't worry, the company pays for you this time."

Soon, the shop assistant brought a white strapless dress and a pair of high heels. "Miss, this white dress will look good on you. I'll take you inside to try it on."

"It's okay. We're in a hurry."

She was afraid that she would waste time. She intended to take the clothes and put them on in any bathroom. Besides, she was just a nonentity. No one would care what she wore. With the shop assistant's accurate judgment just now, there would be nothing wrong with the dress the shop assistant had chosen.

Simon whispered something to the shop assistant, but Jessica didn't hear it clearly. Since Simon said it was a company expense, she stopped asking anything. Anyway, it was also because of work that she had to wear this dress.

After leaving the store, Simon said to Jessica, "Madam, get in the car first. Mr. Williams is waiting for you in the car."

It was only then that Jessica saw the Bentley that Oliver often took parked in front of her. She opened the door and got into the car directly. Oliver was sitting in the driver's seat in front of her. Simon didn't get in the car and left directly.

"Sorry for the delay, I just came out."

"Don't tell me that you will just go in like this."

Jessica raised the dress in her hand. "I have the dress. I'll put it on there. I'm afraid it's too late. You can drive first."

Oliver started the car and quickly drove out of the shopping mall. Jessica had just gotten off work and quarreled with Alice for a long time, which made her tired. She fell asleep as soon as her head touched the back seat.

When she woke up, she was not in the parking lot of the venue, but at the entrance of a styling center.

"Where are we?"

"Get off the car."

Jessica got out of the car with her dress in her hands. The cold wind at night blowing past her face made her sober.

As soon as she followed Oliver in, a man who looked very well-dressed came over to greet her. "Mr. Williams, I was really shocked when I received your call. I didn't expect you to bring a woman to my place. I thought you are also gay."

When Jessica heard this, she was surprised that Oliver knew this man.

Oliver didn't answer his words. He just said coolly, "Hurry up."

The man stopped talking nonsense. "Miss, please sit here."

He quickly finished Jessica's hair and put her on makeup.

"Miss, please go inside and change. Do you want my help? You don't have to be afraid. I'm not interested in girls, you know."

Jessica was amused by his bluntness, and with no time to say anything more to him, she went inside to change her dress.

When she went inside to change her dress, she realized that the white dress was in a v-neck shape. When she put it on, she felt discomfort.

She came out of the room, squirming.
