Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 102

Since she didn't ask anything from Tina, Jessica planned to go to No. 27 Hotel in Holland to investigate.

Jessica had just walked away to the main building when Tina called Marina.

"Mom, I need you."

"What's the matter? Why are you making a fuss?"

"Jessica knows that the child she is carrying is not Vincent's. She came back and said that she had seen Vincent."

"I asked the Garner family to drive Vincent to Lambola City. Why could she still find him?"

"Mom, what should we do? If she finds out who the father of the child in her belly is, we will be in big trouble."

"We'll make it perfect. How can she find out? You'd better calm down. Don't show any sign of guilty in front of her."

Marina was instructing Tina to be vigilant and pay more attention to Oliver. Everything would be fine as long as Oliver didn't know about this.

Jessica entered the living room. Nanny Winnie was tidying up the things on the sofa.

Over the past few days, she had been nagging that madam was not around, and the family was lifeless.

Recently, the whole GrandVille Apartments was also depressed. They were all taking care of Oliver's emotions.

Nanny Winnie saw Jessica come in and greeted her happily. "Madam, you're back. I'm glad."

"Winnie, I'm going upstairs to get something."

"Call me if you need anything."

Jessica went to the guest room first, took out her suitcase, and then went to the bedroom.

She didn't have much stuff, just some toiletries in the bathroom.

The clothes in the cloakroom, as long as they were bought by Oliver, she did not tidy them up and only took her old clothes.

After packing everything, Jessica took a last look at the room. After all, she had lived several days here. Whether she was happy or not, this was destined to be an unforgettable place.

Walking to the bedroom door, she took out the file bag that Simon gave her from her bag and put it on the table.

It wasn't hers. She didn't want it, and she couldn't afford to take it with her.

Winnie was in the living room, watching Jessica carry the suitcase down. She quickly went up and took it over, "Madam, I'll take it. Be careful."

Jessica didn't say no. "Winnie, thank you for taking care of me this time."

"Madam, you don't need to be so polite with me. This is what I should do."

If there was anything worth remembering in this house, it was the kindness that Daisy had shown her when she first came here. And Winnie was the one who cared for her the most. But now it was about to say goodbye to everything here.

Jessica threw her suitcase in the back seat and drove away from GrandVille Apartments.

In the evening, when Oliver came back, he found out about Jessica's visit during the day.

He pushed open the bedroom door and saw the file bag on the desk. When he opened it, he knew that that woman did not take anything he bought her.

Oliver walked into the bathroom and saw that the woman's things were missing from the sink. His heart felt numb. This day had finally come.

He turned on the tap and stood under the shower until he was numb and went out of the bathroom.

He went to the study and smoked for a while. Then he called Martin and asked him to come out for a drink.

The two of them arrived at the Mose Clubhouse almost at the same time. Only members could enter this business club. The first floor was a place for drinking and business, and there were hotel rooms upstairs.

They all wanted to stay in a crowded place on the first floor. At least there, they could listen to the piano. It was better than two lonely men drinking in the private room face to face.

After returning to Birmingham, Martin contacted Sally the first time and found that his phone had been blocked by her. Now there was only this lonely man to accompany him.

Not long after the two of them sat down, suddenly, two uninvited guests came to their seats.

"Isn't this Mr. Williams? Why are you here to drink? If you don't mind, I'll drink with you." Aaron said with a smile. This was the first time he had seen him since they last had a business meeting in the upper private room and ended leaving unhappily.

Oliver said with no emotion, "Suit yourself."

"Let me introduce you to the young master in Lambola City, Scott." Aaron pointed at Oliver and said, "This is Oliver, the most dazzling president of the Williams Group in Birmingham."

"Mr. Williams, I've heard a lot about you." Scott continued, "Mr. Deerman and I are old friends, so there's no need to introduce us."

Martin glanced at Scott. "Did you come to Birmingham just because I owe you a meal in Lambola City?"

"Am I not welcome here? I'm here to do business this time, adding fuel to Birmingham's development." Scott said.

"We will have a good drink today. I'll treat you to a drink." Aaron smiled brightly. Perhaps after the land was sold and the fiscal deficit was filled, there was still some left, which was enough for him to spend for a while.
