Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 174

Jessica stammered, "Lambert, I want to go to the hospital tomorrow to accompany my grandma for a day. She will be very worried if she hasn't seen me for a long time."

The smile on Lambert's face froze and he said, "You don't want to run away, do you?"

Jessica sneered. "I know your current power in Birmingham. I know that I can't escape easily."

"Let Amy and Annie accompany you to the hospital tomorrow." He said, "When I'm free, I'll go to the hospital and talk to grandma about our marriage."

"Lambert, I beg you, don't say anything to her. She's not in good health and can't stand this at all." Jessica frowned.

"Our marriage should be a good thing. Why can't grandma accept this? I think she will be overjoyed when she knows this news."

'He is a more disgusting asshole than Oliver.'

"Are you the person who arranges my grandma back to the hospital?"

"I just want to give grandma a better environment. The dilapidated building you live in is really not suitable for her to stay for a long time."

"So you admit it."

Jessica was right.

"Jessica, I did all this for you." As Lambert spoke, he put his hand on Jessica's shoulder.

Jessica threw his hand away. "Lambert, as a filial son, why do you insist to marry me even if you know your mother doesn't agree to our marriage?"

"I'm in charge of my marriage. My mother can't make her own decisions, so she has lived in the shadow of my father for the rest of her life. She doesn't come out. But I think she will understand my choice."

"You want to marry me to avenge Oliver, don't you? That's really pathetic." Jessica said.

Jessica knew that Lambert was good to her in the past, but there was no need for him to marry her.

If there was a reason why he insisted on marrying her, it would be Oliver.

In the past, Oliver completely suppressed him. At that time, Lambert was still young, so he would not fight Oliver.

He now had the intention of finding back everything he had lost.

Jessica knew that he would do something else.

Just as the two were talking, Lambert's phone rang. He picked up the phone, walked past Jessica, went out, closed the door, and then answered the phone.

Just now, Jessica heard Oliver's name mentioned on the phone, so she couldn't help but be alert.

Jessica quietly walked to the door, pressed her ear against the door, and tried to listen to Lambert's words outside.

Because it was intermittent, she didn't know what he was saying.

When she heard that there was no sound of Lambert talking outside, she gently walked back from the door to the sofa where she had been sitting.

The moment Lambert opened the door, she had just sat down.

It was the first time Jessica had eavesdropped on Lambert, so she was still very nervous. Her face turned red and she said, "Thank you for agreeing on me to see my grandma. I'll go back to my room first."

"Jessica," Lambert called her.

When Jessica heard him call her by her name, she thought that Lambert might want to go back on his word.

Then Lambert said, "Shall I accompany you to the hospital to see grandma tomorrow?"

"You're so busy now. I don't want to waste your time."
