Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 123

Jessica didn't expect someone here to know her. Judging from the woman's tone, she knew that she was not that kind type.

"If you feel unhappy to see me, you can stay away from me. I don't want to see anyone who doesn't welcome me either."

"I don't know where you are working now. How can you afford such expensive jewelry with your salary?" Alice asked with disdain.

"Someone bought it for me. Can't I wear it?"

Alice knew that the identity of the guest who bought the jewelry was mysterious. She didn't know why Jessica knew such a person. Jessica only knew Oliver, but she resigned from his company.

There was disdain in her malicious smile. "Could someone have fooled you with a fake?"

Wendy smiled and said, "Maybe she really met a big shot. I don't know."

"Miss Wackerle, you don't know Miss White. She used to be a secretary." Alice spoke in a loud voice regardless of the close distance. Jessica could hear her clearly.

After Wendy knew that Jessica used to be a secretary, she mocked. "No wonder. Secretaries are calculating."

She hated the occupation a lot because Scott's secretaries tend to seduce her man.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have left home and followed Scott to Birmingham.

Jessica just found it funny. She didn't want to listen to the two women talk. After putting on her makeup, she left quickly.

It seemed that it was not easy for her to find a quiet place to rest.

Seeing that there were fewer people upstairs, Jessica walked up the stairs.

As soon as she reached the corner of the stairs, she saw an old man with a pale look. He covered his chest with both hands and gradually leaned against the wall.

Seeing this, Jessica immediately stepped forward and asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"

The old man had difficulty breathing. He said, "Medicine, medicine. In the room."

Jessica guessed that the old man probably had a heart attack or asthma. She looked around and found no one was nearby.

So she put the old man's arm on her shoulder and helped him into the room without hesitation.

Wendy came out of the bathroom and waited for Alice outside. She was a little curious about Jessica, so she followed her up the stairs.

Then, she watched as Jessica and a very old man crossed their shoulders and entered the room.

She looked excited. This scene really confirmed what she was thinking. Jessica must have gotten the opportunity from some old man. After all, ordinary people could not get the invitation here.

As soon as Alice came out, she saw that Wendy looked excited. "What happened? Why are you so happy?"

"Alice, guess what I saw?"

"It must be fun. Tell me."

"The set of jewelry Jessica is wearing might be genuine. And her clothes are not cheap."

"So what?"

"And then, I just saw her and an old man enter the room upstairs very intimately."

When Alice heard this, she laughed. "I knew she couldn't change her bad habits. When she was a secretary in the Williams Group, she seduced Oliver and made him distance from me, causing me to be punished by my grandpa. Now that she left the Williams Group, she started to rely on old men. She's really not picky."

"Your chance of revenge is coming." Wendy reminded Alice.

Alice snapped her fingers. "I got it."

Alice wanted Jessica to be humiliated tonight while all the celebrities in Birmingham were present.

There were a lot of reporters at the scene, and some people came to such an occasion to find explosive news.

Alice was also the target of gossip magazines. She was the star of Birmingham's socialites.

She saw a familiar reporter and went up to say hello.

The reporter asked her enthusiastically, "Miss Zamani, can I give you a temporary interview?"

Just as she was thinking about how to utter her intention, Alice agreed happily, "There are too many people downstairs. You can go to the lounge upstairs. I can leave you 30 minutes to make an interview."

Then, she pointed at Wendy and said, "She's a star in Lambola City. She's a hot target for the media. I'll also give you a chance to interview her."

The reporter was overjoyed as she was able to interview two popular ladies at the same time.

The three arrived at the door of the lounge where Jessica had just entered, and there were gasps coming from inside.

Alice said, "Maybe some people were doing something inside."

The reporter was even more excited after hearing that as there were plenty of stories to edit.

Just as they were hesitating whether to enter the door, people began to come up upstairs one after another. Perhaps they were a little tired downstairs, so they came up to the room to rest.

Just as the hallway was crowded, Alice said to the reporter, "Be ready."

As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly turned the doorknob away. The reporter's camera was in his hand all the time and he was fully prepared.

After the door was quickly opened, there was a person lying on the sofa. Jessica was sitting next to him, leaning over, and her hands were still on the person lying there.

The reporter quickly filmed the scene.

Jessica was startled by the sound of the door opening and turned around in a daze.

Alice didn't notice the old man on the sofa at all. She was focused on how to humiliate Jessica.

"Jessica, I really didn't expect you to be a slut. Now, I'd like to hear your explanation."

Wendy was also gloating.

At this moment, she heard a weak voice saying "Alice".

Alice's face immediately darkened. "Grandpa, grandpa, what's wrong? Why are you lying here?"

Henry tried his best to utter a sentence. "Then what are you doing here?"

"I..." Alice was speechless.

Wendy was also scared. She didn't know Henry, so it was a misunderstanding.

Jessica said, "Miss Zamani, your grandfather just had a heart attack and he's not breathing well. He's already taken the medicine. I've called his doctor. He would be here soon. You’d better stay here with your grandpa."

After Jessica finished speaking, she stood up and was about to leave.

By this time, there were already many people standing outside the door.

Henry motioned for Alice to apologize to Jessica.

Alice nodded reluctantly at Jessica. "Miss White, thank you for saving my grandfather."

Downstairs, Oliver, who hadn't seen Jessica come back for a while, was looking for her anxiously. Seeing a lot of people standing upstairs, he also came up.
