Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 88

"Miss, what kind of car do you want?"

The young man at the door saw a guest coming and asked.

"I want to buy a cheap second-hand car. Please recommend one for me." Jessica looked around the car shop as if she hadn't found any cheap cars yet.

She wanted to travel far away, and it was easy to be found out if she took public transportation. In the future, she needed a car for work, so she wanted to buy a cheap second-hand car to meet the emergency.

"Miss, what's your budget?"

"About 20,000 dollars." She didn't have much money on her card. She had just spent some of the money in the hospital, and the rest of the money was a little. If she went to a new place, she needed to rent a room and also needed to see a doctor regularly.

When the young man heard this budget, the enthusiasm of his warm reception just now immediately disappeared. "Miss, take a look by yourself first."

Jessica didn't want to waste any more time here, so she raised her budget a little.

She tried driving a second-hand Peugeot, feeling good, so she bought it immediately.

Before she left, she asked again if the car was safe. The young man patted his chest and said, "Our car shop provides warranty services of repair, replacement, and refund. If there are any problems, come to the shop at any time."

Jessica went to the supermarket to buy some more things and brought them along on the way because she didn't know where to drive. Anyway, she would leave Birmingham first.

Jessica couldn't go to Williams Hospital. Before she left, she went to the cemetery to say goodbye to her mother.

She was vigilant. Before she got out of the car, she observed the surroundings and soon saw people walking around in twos and threes at the entrance of the cemetery.

She had a hunch that it was Oliver's men. Sure enough, she saw a familiar face. It was the man who appeared in the warehouse at the dock to save her when she was kidnapped.

From what she knew about Oliver, that man must be angry at her for running away from home. He must have sent someone to look for her. She didn't expect him to send someone to the cemetery.

It was dangerous to stay here for long. Jessica turned the car around and left.

It was getting darker. Jessica drove fast all the way. After some time, she saw a service area ahead, so she drove away from the highway to get some rest and eat something. She would continue to drive at night.

Jessica parked the car, still wearing her mask, and got out of the car.

When she went to the bathroom, she covered herself tightly. She was wearing a long black down jacket, which was bought by James in a hurry at the supermarket. It was a very ordinary piece of clothing.

When she went in, she was passing someone. Jessica could tell at a glance that it was Sally. She immediately lowered her head and walked in quickly.

Sally hesitated for a moment, feeling that the figure of the woman was a little familiar, but she was afraid that she had thought too much. After Sally went to the GrandVille Apartments today, she had been thinking about Jessica.

Sally turned around and glanced at the door. The woman had long disappeared, so she went back to the car.

"Mr. Hill, if I don't wake up, are you going to sell me and my car?" Sally vented her anger on Martin.

Sally only woke up when she reached the rest area, mainly because she ate too much at night and wanted to go to the toilet badly. When she opened her eyes, she realized that Martin had taken her to a strange place. She had just been busy going to the bathroom, so only when she came back did she argue with him.

"Even if I sell you, I can't make a good price."

"All men are disgusting."

"I'm different from other men. Don't confuse me with them."

Martin smoked, and the cold wind outside poured into the car, bringing in the smell of smoke.

Sally's mind was already clear. She looked at the sign outside the window and knew that she hadn't left Birmingham yet. "Where are you driving me?"

"I'll take you to a good place."

"Where?"

Before Martin could finish speaking, the phone rang. He was picking up girls now. He didn't know who disturbed him at this critical moment.

Martin wanted to hang up, but he saw it was Oliver.

Martin clicked on his phone, answered the phone, and heard Oliver ask directly, "Where are you now? Get back to the hospital."

Martin didn't know what was going on these days. A few days ago, James asked him to get up before dawn to go to the hospital quickly. Now it was Oliver who asked him to go back to the hospital. He didn't get any benefits from being friends with these people. They were so annoying, but Martin couldn't refuse.

Before Martin could respond, the phone was hung up. It was really Oliver's style. Oliver was like a king, just giving orders.

Martin glanced at Sally in the back seat. "I'll take you home."

"What? What happened?"

"Oliver just called me back to the hospital. He probably has found his wife."

"That's great." Sally felt that she really had thought too much just now.

Martin sent Sally home, took a taxi, and hurried to the hospital.

When he returned to the hospital's office, he saw Oliver standing there with a murderous look on his face. Martin really couldn't figure out what the hell was going. He didn't do anything wrong.

"Why are you here instead of waiting at home for your wife to come back?" Martin was not sure what was going on. Seeing that Oliver didn't say anything, he asked directly.

Simon smiled and said, "We found out that madam came to your hospital, but the staff in the hospital said that she was discharged from the hospital, and even the records of madam's hospitalization were cleaned up. We searched the entire hospital but couldn't find her, so you should know where madam went, right?"

Martin was shocked. His hospital was a small private hospital, and there were not many patients.

He immediately remembered the woman whom James had brought with him a few days ago. He didn't expect it to be Jessica It seemed that he had really provoked Oliver, but he was innocent because he didn't know anything about it.

"I didn't mean to cover it up. It was an emergency. If she hadn't been sent here in time, the baby would have been dead. Even she was in a critical situation. I saved your wife, which should be a good deed that I did to make amends for my fault." Martin said to Oliver.

When Oliver knew that there was no big accident for Jessica, his gloomy face softened a little. He said coldly, "Then why was she discharged? Find her for me."

Jessica took Oliver to the ward where Jessica lived before. It was empty and there was no sign of a woman.

Martin didn't know what happened either. He wasn't in the hospital during the day, so he went downstairs and asked the other staff. Then he knew that Jessica had really been discharged.

Martin immediately went to the computer room to get the surveillance video.

Sure enough, he saw Jessica had left after James.
