Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 86

James was stunned when he heard the word "miscarriage." When they were eating yesterday, they were all joking about Jessica and Lambert. Could it be that Jessica was pregnant with Lambert's child? If Lambert had done this to Jessica, James could never ignore it.

Two hours later, it was already dawn.

Only then did the doctor come out of the operating room.

Martin and James sat in the corridor outside, waiting for the result.

The doctor in the front took off his mask. He looked old and sweaty.

Martin walked up and asked, "Doctor Fain, how's it going?"

Doctor Fain glanced at James next to him with disdain in his eyes, then turned to Martin and said. "What's wrong with you as a husband? How could you allow your pregnant wife to go out on such a cold day without any thick clothes on her? Fortunately, she was sent here in time. Otherwise, the baby in her abdomen could not be saved."

James' brows knitted more deeply. He quickly bowed and thanked them. "Thank you for your hard work, doctors."

When doctors left, James smiled bitterly and said to Martin, "Are all women doctors here very domineering? They looked at me just now as if they were going to kill me."

"Now you can rest assured. She has been saved. She only needs more rest. I'll go back to sleep now since I've fulfilled my mission."

"Well, you can go back. I'll treat you a drink some time." James saw that her condition had stabilized, so he went to the ward to see Jessica. Even if she was asleep, her brows were knitted.

Jessica had been sunk in sleep until the night.

She opened her eyes and looked at the white ceiling above her head. For a moment, she didn't know where she was. Then she looked around and realized that she was in the hospital. Jessica was so nervous that she was about to sit up, afraid that she was taken to the hospital by Oliver.

She still looked tired and flustered.

Jessica's movements woke James up, who was lying on the side sleeping. He rubbed his eyes and said softly, "You're finally awake. You've been sleeping all day."

Seeing James beside her, she remembered that she had called him. It seemed that she was not caught by Oliver.

"James, thank you. Where am I?"

"Fortunately, I didn't listen to you to find a doctor randomly. Otherwise, if something really happens, it will be too late to regret it." James picked up the pillow, put it behind Jessica's back, and pushed the bed into a sitting position.

Jessica leaned against the pillow, tears streaming down from her face. She bit her lips and asked, "Is my baby gone?"

"Don't worry, your baby is fine. The doctor said it would be dangerous if you came later. Fortunately, you met the best gynecologist in Birmingham."

Jessica's eyes widened when she heard "the best gynecologist in Birmingham".

"Which hospital am I in now? Not Williams Hospital, right?"

As the doctors in Williams Hospital were all top-notch, she thought James sent her here. Then she would deliver herself into Oliver's hands.

"It's not Williams Hospital. It's my friend's private hospital. Don't worry."

Speaking of the Williams Hospital, James remembered that once he saw Jessica and Lambert sitting together that day. So he asked Jessica directly, "Is the father of the child in your abdomen really surnamed, Williams?"

Jessica really didn't know how to start.

James saw her hesitation and couldn't help but scold, "Is it really Lambert's child? He's really brute. He looks gentle and elegant, but what he did is worse than a bastard."

Seeing that James had misunderstood, Jessica quickly explained, "It's not Lambert's child. It has nothing to do with him."

"Wasn't Lambert the one who made you like this? Although he's from the Williams Family, you don't have to be afraid of him. I'll help you."

"James, calm down. It really has nothing to do with Lambert. Don't tell anyone about my hospitalization, even if Lambert asks."

"Who did this to you? Tell me, I'll beat that bastard for you."

In Birmingham, the person who could beat that man seemed not to be born yet. The last time Jessica was sent to the police station, she saw that even the police officers were afraid of that man. So she knew that his power was really great in Birmingham. How could she let James who saved her just now provoke such a man?

"It's my husband." She said calmly.

James did not know that she was married. This was a conflict between a couple. So he did not continue to ask.

"What do you want to eat? I'll buy it for you."

"I'm not hungry."

"How can you not eat? You are not alone now. You have a child. The doctor said that you need a nutritional supplement. You bleed too much and should rest quietly to recuperate."

After that, James went out to buy food.

Jessica stood up and took two steps, but her lower body was still in great pain. She stood by the window and observed the surroundings. It was a small hospital with good facilities in all aspects. This was indeed a good place for her to recuperate. Now she only prayed that Oliver would not find her.

James came back from shopping and saw Jessica walking around the room. "Why did you get out of bed? Lie down on the bed. Have a cup of hot tea first."

Jessica was very grateful to James' help, but she didn't know when she would be able to repay such a good friend. When she drank the tea and ate the ginger cookies, her eyes turned red and tears almost fell on her food. She was afraid that James would see her look, so she ate a little faster.

James said on the side, "Looks like you're really hungry. Eat slowly. I'll buy more if it's not enough."

Jessica tried to hold back her sobs. "That's enough, thank you. You should go home early. It's taken you so long."

James saw that it was getting late. In the hospital, he had talked to Martin. Martin had already asked nurses to take special care of her. So he said, "Well, then have a good rest. Call me if you need anything."

After James left, Jessica called Lannan, the nurse, and asked about her grandma's condition, knowing that everything was fine. That man still had a conscience and did not disturb her grandma.

She didn't know when she would come back at this time. So she decided to pick up her grandma after settling down.
