Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 154

The next day.

Jessica went to the Williams Hospital early.

When she entered, she saw a suitcase beside the sofa.

She was overjoyed.

"Grandma, have the things been brought here?"

"After you left yesterday, I asked Lannan to pick it up."

Jessica opened the suitcase and found it was full of clothes.

She rummaged through a few pieces and saw that some were wrinkled and some had been washed and faded. She did not expect to wear such clothes before she married Oliver.

Under a pile of clothes, there was a jewelry box.

She took it out and opened it. There was a tulip earring inside.

"Why is there only one earring left?" She asked.

"See if it is in the suitcase. Such a small thing is not easy to find." Her grandma said.

Jessica emptied everything out of the suitcase but she didn't find the other one.

"I remember that this was left to me by my mother. It seemed that my mother also gave me a necklace. I don't know where it was." She said as she looked for it.

Her grandma saw that she cherished this tulip earring and was afraid that she would be sad. She comforted her and said, "Forget it. You have everything now. You can have new earrings."

Jessica just felt a little sorry for her mother. She didn't even keep the only set of jewelry that her mother left her.

She thought that if she gave birth to a girl in the future, she would buy the other earring and a necklace to form a set for her daughter.

If she had a son, she would give them to her daughter-in-law.

In this way, their family's jewelry was also considered to have a heritage.

Jessica took the earring from the box and went to a nearby jewelry store to ask if they had the same one.

An old craftsman in the shop put on his glasses and gloves and picked the tulip earring up and observed it. He said, "This earring looks simple in size and shape, and has no special craftsmanship. But we have never seen this material before."

"Master, do you know what brand of jewelry this is?" Jessica asked.

The old craftsman said, "This should not be a popular product on the market. We have been in the jewelry industry for many years. We know very well about the products on the market. This style is very ordinary, but the material is rare."

Jessica then asked her grandma if she knew the origin of this set of tulip jewelry.

Grandma didn't know at all.

It seemed that this thing was not necessarily handed down from the Youngren family, her mother's family. Was it from the White family?

She didn't think so, but she didn't want to ask Jason for the time being.

Jessica didn't invite Hayden to teach her to paint at home recently.

She was not in the mood to learn that now. Every day, she spent more time browsing the information websites at home and abroad on the Internet to see if she could find any news about Oliver.

She was looking at the news channel, but a piece of news popped up at the bottom of the computer screen.

Oliver, president of Williams Group, was under investigation for suspected manipulating the stock prices.

Jessica was astonished.

'Someone is deliberately framing Oliver at this time.'

Jessica immediately went to the Old Residence to discuss it with Jeff.

After all, Jeff used to be a big shot in the business world, and he was also commonplace with these commercial competitive methods. He should know how to fight back.

When she arrived at the Old Residence, Jeff didn't want to see her. The butler asked her to go back first.

Jessica didn't hear any reply from her grandfather, so she didn't want to go back.

She walked straight to the hall and saw Jeff sitting there.

"Grandpa, someone is framing Oliver. He's your grandson after all. You must help him." Jessica said.

"This is our business. It has nothing to do with you."

Jessica's face turned pale and red with anger. "But I'm Oliver's wife. His business is my business."

Jeff still seemed indifferent.

Hugh said from the side, "I'll see you off."

Jessica left the Old Residence in despair.

She called Simon and asked him to go to GrandVille Apartments.

After Jessica left, Jeff called Hugh over. "Come on. Let's go to the company. It's really a mess."

When Jessica got home, Simon had already arrived.

"Mrs. Williams, you had seen the news?"

"Simon, what the hell is going on? I've never asked Oliver about his work. You should know the company the best."

"Mrs. Williams, to tell you the truth, it seems that someone deliberately wanted to spread the bad news about Mr. Williams," Simon said.

As soon as the negative news about the Williams Group came out, it began to ferment in the multimedia industries such as the Internet and TV. Oliver became the target of public criticism for a moment.

"What should we do now?"

"We can only go to Lambert and ask him to block this news. If this thing continues to ferment, Mr. Williams's reputation will be severely damaged when he comes back in the future." Simon said.

"Mr. Williams had asked Carl for help before. He should know more about the stock exchange."

Jessica called Carl immediately. He had just checked in and was about to board the plane and return to the United States.

He had been waiting for Oliver in Birmingham for a long time, but Oliver didn't come back. So he planned to go back to the United States and continue to deal with the company's affairs there.

When he received a call from Jessica, he immediately got off the plane and took a taxi to GrandVille Apartments.

Carl gave Jessica and Simon an analysis. "Someone should have planned this beforehand. When Oliver went on vacation, he deliberately shorted the Williams Group stock. The Williams Group would definitely retaliate. And so the other party may release unfavorable news and then beat us unprepared. "

"Who's going to target Oliver?" Jessica shuddered at the thought of what had happened in Holland. She did not expect that Oliver was always in danger and might be killed at any time.

Carl and Simon did not dare to jump to conclusions because they didn't get much evidence.

...

In the Williams Group.

Jeff went to Lambert's office.

"Grandpa, why are you here?"

"What the hell is going on?" Jeff asked.

Lambert knew that his grandpa was talking about Oliver.

"Grandpa, this might be a competitor who deliberately tarnished the Williams Group when Oliver isn't around."

"Do you have any countermeasures now?"

"The public relations department is in a meeting to discuss."

"When others want to disintegrate our Williams Family, we have to work together."

Lambert said, "Grandpa, I don't want anything to happen to Oliver either. This news made the value of our Williams Group's stock drop by 20%."
