Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 130

In the morning, the sun shone into the room.

When Alice got up and opened her eyes, she felt the sunlight was dazzling and blinding.

She got a small problem with sleeping usually so she closed the curtains tightly when she slept. But now, the withe and blinding sunlight made her almost unable to open her eyes.

Her head hurt a little. She looked around and found she wasn't in her room.

She sat up, rubbed her head, and thought for a while. Only then did she recall that she drunk with Carl last night.

"Isn't that a dream? Isn't Carl still in the united states? Why would I drink with him?" But on second thought, she knew that she did drink, or she wouldn't have stayed here.

'What happened?'

She lifted the quilt and saw that she was in her own clothes. And there was no trace of her having sex.

She got out of bed, drew the curtains in the room, and adjusted to the light in the room. Then she slowly walked out of the bedroom.

She was thirsty and wanted some water to drink. She opened the refrigerator in the room and took a bottle of water. Just as she took a sip, she heard a man's voice. "You're up."

Alice turned around in shock and looked at Carl, who was lying on the sofa "It's really you. I thought it was a dream."

"What's wrong? You weren't that drunk yesterday. Why didn't you remember me?"

"You came and went without a trace. I thought I was drinking with you in my dream, but it turned out to be a fact."

"You should hurry home. You came out late last night without your cell phone and you drunk too much. Aren't you afraid of being harassed?"

"That's because I was with you and I trust you."

"Bullshit. That's not because you trust me. That's because you were too drunk. Even if you were thrown into the sea, you probably won't wake up."

"Am I that stupid?"

"You took my bed yesterday, so I didn't sleep well all night. I'm going into my room now. I need to catch up some sleep."

Carl got up from the sofa. Although he was with sleepy eyes and his hair was a bit disheveled, he still looked handsome.

"Okay. I'll go down and buy you breakfast."

"Fair."

Only half asleep, Carl went straight into his room to sleep. He was adjusting to the jet lag.

When Alice got up, she smelled alcohol all over her body. But she was too thirsty just now and wanted to get some drink. She hasn't had time to take a bath.

Now sitting alone in the living room, she smelled strong alcohol. She didn't know if it was the smell of wine left by Carl or the smell of her clothes. She felt that she couldn't go out like this.

Anyway, she had to take a shower.

Alice walked into the bathroom, took off her clothes, and threw them aside. She turned on the rain shower and stood below. The water column rushed her, which made her refresh.

Just as she was enjoying her morning bath, the bathroom door was opened.

Her long hair on the back could hardly cover her body.

She bent her elbows, covered her chest, and turned her face. "What the f*ck are you doing, asshole?"

Carl didn't even open his eyes because he was so sleepy.

He came to the bathroom because he wanted to pee.

He remembered that Alice said that she went out to buy breakfast for him. He thought that she had already gone downstairs. He didn't expect that she would be taking a bath.

If Alice didn't scream, maybe he wouldn't open his eyes.

But the scream sobered him. He opened his eyes and stared at the blur beautiful woman.

Alice had just left her bathrobe on the bathroom counter at the door. Her hand couldn't reach it now.

Carl closed the bathroom door and stood at the door. "I didn't mean it. Why didn't you lock the door?"

Alice thought it wouldn't take much time, and she didn't have the habit of locking the door when she was taking a bath. She didn't expect that Carl, who should be sleeping, would be here. If he wanted to pee, why didn't he pee before he went to sleep?

"You are not allowed to come in again!"

She slipped to the counter at the door, picked up her bathrobe, and put it on before coming out.

Then, Carl came into the bathroom.

Just now, Alice's focus was on the bath. She just took a bathrobe and put it on. But now, she saw some blood soaking the bathrobe. She was on period!

As the old saying goes, misfortunes never come singly.

Carl came out and said, "You can continue to take a shower. I won't disturb you again."

"No," said Alice with a pout.

"What's wrong? I didn't see your body. The fog in the bathroom was too heavy. I just woke up and I haven't opened my eyes yet."

He said this to comfort Alice. He saw her in the nude.

"It's not that. I need your help with something."

"It's a big deal for me to sleep now. Is that thing more important than mine?"

"I'm on my period. Go buy me a box of tampons."

Carl looked helpless. He really couldn't reject it.

After that, he walked straight to the door, changed his shoes, and was about to leave.

Alice walked over and stammered, "Please...do me...another favor."

"Okay?"

"Since you are going out, buy me a set of clothes. My clothes smell like alcohol, so I can't wear them at all."

Carl said unhappily, "What's your size? Hurry up. Or I don't know what kind of clothes I shall buy for you."

Alice found a piece of paper and wrote her measurements. "Here, don't look at it. Just give this to the shop assistant. The shop assistant will give you the clothes."

Carl sneered and said to himself, "I have it in my hand and you ask me not to see it. You're too naive."

When he walked to the nearby mall, he realized that it was too early. No store was open.

He sat on a chair in front of the mall and smoked.

As he smoked, he saw two familiar figures walking towards him.

He immediately stood up. "Father."

Carl's father's eyes were filled with questions. "When did you come back?"

Carl said, "I just came back yesterday."

The man behind Carl's father was Tom, the butler of his family.

Tom said, "Young Master, you're back. Why don't you go home? Your parents are missing you."

"Got it. I'll be back in a few days."

Carl's father glared at him and asked, "What are you doing sitting here early in the morning? You don't even have the money to stay in a hotel, do you? You stayed here all night?"

Perhaps Carl's dark circles were too obvious so his father misunderstood him.

"No, I'll buy something for someone and go back to the hotel in a while."
