Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 152

Even Simon couldn't open it.

Speaking of which, Simon had already been transferred to the administrative office downstairs.

He wouldn't come upstairs if Jessica hadn't been suddenly visited Oliver's office.

He went to ask the secretaries, but they all said they didn't know. Their boss arranged it directly.

As for the other things, they kept silent.

"Is Lambert vice president now?" Jessica saw it on the news and asked him for confirmation.

"Yes, madam."

"Then take me to his office. I want to see him."

Lambert's office was also on the top floor, a little far from Oliver's. A large administrative office separated them.

Simon took Jessica to the door and knocked. Someone answered inside.

Simon opened the door and called, "Hi, Mr. Lambert."

Jessica saw Lambert reading the document.

He didn't even raise his head. "What's the matter?"

Jessica said, "I'm here to see you."

Lambert looked up and saw Jessica standing at the door.

"Madam, I'll leave you two alone," Simon said.

Lambert stood up and led Jessica to the sofa.

Jessica said, "I came here to get something from Oliver's office, but there's a lock on the door."

She made up a reason, for she couldn't say that she came for her memories. After all, this was her privacy, and Lambert didn't need to know it.

Lambert was a little unhappy. He surely knew what Jessica meant. She was questioning him, the vice president, why Oliver was not here, even his office was sealed. What was his purpose?

"I'll take you there." He said.

"So you can open that door?" Jessica said with displease.

She felt sick when she saw another iron door towering outside the door of Oliver's office.

"It's probably my subordinates want to protect the documents in the president's office."

It seemed that Lambert agreed with it, or how would he know about it?

Even if it wasn't his idea, he must have known about it before and didn't stop it. Obviously, he was about to tell all the people in the company that the president wouldn't come back.

"I forgot to congratulate you. You have been promoted to the vice president of the company." Jessica said sarcastically.

Lambert said, "Wait here. I'll get someone to open the door for you."

He made a phone call.

Then he asked the secretary for a cup of tea.

Lambert's secretary was new here and didn't know Jessica.

When the secretary came in, she looked at Jessica several times, for Lambert's office seldom had a female guest.

Lambert went out to see if the door was open when he met Toby.

Toby pulled him aside and asked, "Who's here?"

"Jessica."

"Why did you let her in? Things here can't be moved. What if she takes something away?"

"I don't think she'll do that. She doesn't remember anything, and how could she know what to take? Oliver isn't here, nobody can tell her what to do." Lambert said.

Toby sneered. "You should take the responsibility yourself."

Jessica sat in Lambert's office for a while, but she could wait no longer and stand up and walk out. When she came out, she found Toby and Lambert talking there, looking strange as they saw her.

Jessica walked straight over and called, "Good day, uncle."

Toby nodded for greeting and walked away.

Lambert and Jessica went into the president's office.

The room hadn't been cleaned for a long time. The desk was covered with dust.

Jessica strolled around Oliver's desk, then walked to the lounge.

As soon as she stepped into the room, the images of her and Oliver lying on the bed suddenly appeared in her mind.

Jessica blinked hard, and soon the image disappeared.

She must have been here before.

She found that Oliver's office remained the same as she came to deliver dinner for him last time.

There were still some documents on the desk that he hadn't read, and she tidied them up.

Then, she said to Lambert, "Lambert, Oliver may be back tomorrow, so you'd better ask the cleaners to clean here. The guests won't regard us the Williams Group as a powerful firm when they see the dirty president's office."

"Of course. Have you found what you want?" Lambert asked.

Jessica almost forgot her excuse to come in. It was only when Lambert reminded her that she remembered.

"Oh, no, I think I may have taken it home. It's just a photo. I'll look for it at home."

Things that happened in Oliver's office made Jessica's purpose of coming to the office be disturbed.

Lambert insisted on handing her down to the door, so she couldn't stay any longer.

Jessica didn't know how long she would stay in the company, so she asked the driver to leave first and pick her up an hour later as she came.

She found that the driver was yet to arrive.

Lambert said, "Do you want me to take you home?"

"It's okay. You're so busy now. I won't disturb your work."

"There's nothing important I have to do right now. There are a lot of things waiting for Oliver to make a decision."

"Have you heard any new developments from Grandpa?"

Jessica had never been to the Old Residence since she saw Jeff last time. She asked Lambert if Jeff had any news.

"Not yet."

"I remember uncle worked in southeast Asia. Then why does he still here?"

At the dinner of New Year's Eve, she could feel that there was something secret between Toby and Lambert.

So she asked about Toby.

Oliver told her that he had required Toby to go back to southeast Asia and that he would not come back in the near future.

Toby was still in Birmingham for the time being, but the Williams family had to get together because of the dinner of New Year's Eve.

The older Jeff got, the more he seemed to care about family reunions, especially after Oliver's father died.

So he assured Jessica that Toby would not have a chance to trouble them.

Lambert did not expect that Jessica knew much more than he thought. He thought that Oliver would definitely not tell Jessica about Toby.

After all, what happened to Toby was connected with Jessica.

He said, "It's Grandpa's decision. Now that Oliver is not here, and Grandpa is very sad, he wants his family to be with him."
