Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 53

Oliver was stunned for a few seconds when he saw Jessica. She was dressed in a long white dress and looked as beautiful as a fairy.

The person standing by joked, "Mr. Williams, so this is the type of girl you like?"

Oliver didn't want to answer him. He just said to Jessica, "Let's go. It's getting late."

Jessica came to the venue of the fragrant shadow at the sideburns and followed Oliver. From time to time, she whispered in his ear about who they were going to meet. Her memory was very good. She only needed to look at the profile once to match the person to the photo.

"Mr. Williams, you're finally here." Aaron came over with a glass in his hand.

Jessica turned to look at Aaron, who looked a little like Alice. He looked like a refined rascal with his hair combed back.

While Aaron was talking to Oliver, he was constantly looking at Jessica, making her feel uncomfortable.

Oliver also felt something strange. "Mr. Zamani, let's go out and talk."

Jessica knew that the Williams Family and the Zamani Family were aristocratic families, and they knew each other. She stood there and watched the two men leave, shoulder to shoulder.

Jessica went to the bathroom. She leaned against the washbasin to rest. When she was following Oliver just now, her mind was racing all the time. She was afraid that she would make a mistake in introducing the VIP guests to Oliver. Just now, she was so nervous that she didn't realize that her ankle was red from the high heels.

She had never worn shoes with such high and thin heels before. Although the quality was good, her feet were a little swollen because of pregnancy. Her feet now hurt from walking.

Now it was lively outside, so she couldn't hide inside all the time. If Oliver couldn't find her, he would be angry. She looked at herself in the mirror and felt a little strange. She barely recognized herself after being dolled up by a stylist.

She took out her compact, refined her make-up, and left.

As soon as Jessica opened the bathroom door, she bumped into a person.

She looked up and saw a man's face. It was Aaron.

Aaron pushed Jessica into the bathroom and locked the door from inside.

Jessica's heart was in her mouth and her face turned pale. She said nervously, "Mr. Zamani... Mr. Zamani, did you go to the wrong place? This is the women's bathroom."

Aaron smiled evilly. "It's the same for me whether it's the men's or the women's bathroom."

Jessica remembered that she had just taught Alice a lesson that night. She thought her brother came to avenge her. Jessica didn't know Aaron's character, but his malicious smile made her shudder. What she needed now was to calm down.

"Mr. Zamani, if you want to use the restroom, let me go out first."

"Are you in such a hurry to leave?"

"Sorry, I don't seem to know you well, Mr. Zamani."

"We didn't know each other, but now we do. I've seen you in the hall just now. Now that we've met for the second time, I think we're familiar. Do you need me to introduce myself again?"

Jessica knew that he was ill-intentioned. She prayed that someone would come in quickly. She kept looking at the door. At this time, there was really a sound of turning the doorknob. She immediately wanted to open the door, but Aaron grabbed her tightly.

At this moment, Aaron shouted at the door, "We have something to do in there. Please go to another bathroom."

When the person outside heard that there was a man's voice inside, she basically understood what was going on inside. For those who often attended such occasions, they had seen everything and were not surprised at all.

Jessica panicked even more. "Please let me out."

"Miss White, don't worry. I won't do anything to you right now. I'll take care of you. I'm just wondering if you're interested in changing jobs, Miss White?"

"No, I like my current job very much, so I won't trouble you to worry about me." Jessica refused directly.

"I don't think I've met anyone who can refuse me." As Aaron spoke, he looked into the mirror to comb his hair.

"I'm really sorry. Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Zamani."

Aaron said casually, "How much do you want?"

Jessica had thought that he would avenge Alice and teach her a lesson. When she heard that he wanted to make an offer, she couldn't figure out what he was going to do to her.

"Mr. Zamani, why do you want me to change jobs?"

"How about being my secretary?"

"Mr. Zamani is rich. You can get any kind of secretary you want. I'm new to the job, so I'm afraid you're overestimating me."

"Since you know I'm rich, I've always been generous with women. You could do a lot better if you work for me."

Jessica felt sick when she heard this. "Whether Mr. Zamani is looking for a secretary or a girlfriend, I want to tell you clearly that I don't meet your requirements."

Aaron was not happy. This woman was really difficult to deal with. With his knowledge of women, coupled with his charm, he had never failed to get any woman. Now it seemed a little difficult, but he liked to tease her.

Aaron took out his checkbook from his pocket and tore up a blank check. "I'll give you as much time as you need to think about it. There's no number on this check. When you come around to my request, fill in the number on the check and come to me."

After that, Aaron stuffed the blank check directly into Jessica's V-neck dress, then opened the door and left.

Jessica took out the check from her collar, tore it up, and threw it into the toilet. Then she ran to the washbasin, wiping back and forth where she had been touched with a wet towel.

She knew that although Oliver was not good to her, he would not take the initiative to hurt her. She felt that Aaron was not a good person. Moreover, since she had a problem with his sister, she had to hide from Aaron in the future. He was much harder to deal with than Alice.

After Jessica came out of the bathroom, she quickly went to the hall to look for Oliver. She looked around and finally saw Oliver waving a champagne glass in his hand and talking to someone.

She walked straight over and realized that the person who was talking to Oliver was Aaron. This man was really annoying.

"Mr. Williams, Don't you always take Darcy with you when you go out to parties? Is this your new secretary? Could you please introduce her to me?" Aaron took a sip of red wine as if nothing had happened.

Jessica glared at Aaron and said to Oliver, "Mr. Williams, am I interrupting your conversation? I'll come back later."

Oliver said calmly, "It's okay, Mr. Zamani is my friend."

Jessica, who was about to walk away, stopped.

"This is Jessica, my..."
