Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 171

Lambert's position as the president of the Williams Group gradually became stable.

With the support of a lot of people in the group, everything went well for him.

So the thought of marrying Jessica came to his mind again.

Now that he owned the supreme power of the Williams Group, he could do whatever he wanted.

He finally felt the sense of security brought about by power and wealth. He remembered that in the past he was satisfied to be an artist. He was so short-sighted at that time.

If Lambert wanted to get married, he had to get Jeff's permission at first.

He went to the Old Residence to talk to his grandfather about his marriage.

When Lambert arrived, he saw Jeff standing under a ginkgo tree in the yard with his back to him, leaning on a cane.

Hugh stepped forward and said, "Master, First Young Master is back."

When Jeff heard that Lambert had returned, a long-lost smile appeared on his old face.

Oliver was still under investigation, which made him worried. In addition, Lambert, who had been living in the Old Residence with him, also went out to live alone.

Now that he was the only old man left, living in this Old Residence, there was inevitably a feeling of desolation.

Seeing Lambert again, Jeff smiled and said, "You're back. Come and play chess with me."

In the past, when Lambert was with Jeff, he often played chess and chatted with him

Now he was too busy.

They sat on a bench under the ginkgo tree and began to play chess.

Jeff won three games in a row.

He knew that Lambert had deliberately lost to him to make him happy.

Jeff said, "Can you handle the business?"

"Grandpa, don't worry. With your help, I'm completely at ease."

"You're smart and capable. You can succeed in everything. Grandpa is proud of you."

"Thank you for your upbringing." Lambert mustered up the courage and said, "Grandpa, I'm going to get married."

Jeff smiled and said, "Really? Tell me, who is your Miss Right? I will definitely hold a grand wedding for you then. Last time, Oliver got married in such a hurry. It has always been a pity for me. I don't know how many years do I have left. But I will die in peace if I can still do something for you."

Jeff's health has been getting worse recently, and he always recalled regrets of the past, so he hoped that he could make up in his lifetime.

"Grandpa, don't say that. You'll live a long life." Lambert said, but seeing how much grandpa expected of him, how would he say?

Lambert hesitated for a moment.

Jeff added, "I used to separate your parents for the interests of the Williams family. I know I was wrong about this. It's my responsibility that your parents and Oliver's mother lived unhappily."

It seemed to be the first time Jeff had mentioned his parents' marriage in front of him.

Lambert said, "Grandpa, I understand your decision at that time."

"So, as for your marriage, I don't ask you to compromise for the interests of the Williams family. As long as it's someone you value, I will support you. Is she someone I know?"

"Thank you," Lambert said. "She's someone you know."

"Don't let me guess. Tell me."

Lambert found the girl he liked, and Jeff was very happy for him. He hoped that the children of the Williams family, at least Lambert, would have a happy marriage.
