Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica)

Chapter 58

In the past few days, Jessica had been observing the president's office. Although she couldn't

recognize all the people who entered Oliver's office, she knew that they were prominent figures in the

group.

When she delivered the files to Oliver, she found that his expression was kind of twisted. Although his

face was usually dark before, she could see the difference between the two kinds.

Jessica folded her hands and held them for a while. Finally, she mustered up the courage to ask, "Mr.

Williams, is it because of the land in the west of the city?"

Oliver gazed up with mixed feelings. "Focus on your own work. Don't ask anything you shouldn't know."

"Okay, I see."

Jessica left the president's office uneasily.

Although Oliver didn't say anything, he had come home much later than usual in the past few days.

After all, they lived together. Jessica felt that this matter was very important to him.

In the afternoon, Jeff came to the company and had a terrible quarrel with Oliver in the office. Almost

everyone on the same floor had heard them.

Jessica did not dare to step in and say anything to them. She was not qualified to interfere in this. She

wanted to try her best to fix it.

Jessica didn't like all the youngsters of the Zamani Family at all, but she respected Henry very much.

Henry was the successor of the Zamani Family and its brush-making craftsmanship, and he promoted

the Brushshop to a higher level. In addition to the brush-making profession, he also had the agility of a

businessman. Through the first bucket of gold he earned in the brush house in his early years, he

bought many pieces of land to exploit real estate, developing the small brush shop into a diversified

group of real estate, art collection, and energy investment.

When she was young, Henry's Brushshop was not big. Her grandpa Terence often took her there to

buy brushes. Terence and Henry were close friends.

After she married Oliver, her grandma overheard the nurse talking about the gossip between Jessica

and Oliver. Later, after being repeatedly asked, she told grandma the truth that the person she married

was not Vincent, but Oliver of the Williams Family.

Her grandma knew that Jessica married Oliver because of her illness. One day when Jessica went to

visit her, she held Jessica's hand with tears in her eyes, "My dearest, I'm old and I don't know how long

I can live. I shouldn't have dragged you down."

Hearing this, she comforted her grandma, "It's good to marry the Williams Family. They are rich and

powerful. No one can bully us anymore."

"My child, it's difficult to escape since you marry into a rich family. Nevertheless, if you want a divorce ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

someday, you can ask a person to help you."

"Grandma, I'll see to it myself."

"I'm afraid that I won't be able to see you someday so I have to tell you now. You may not remember

the Henry that you met as a child. He owed your grandfather his life. If you go to him, he will definitely

help you."

At that time, Jessica didn't take it seriously. She didn't want to ask anyone else, as long as she had

something to sell out, whether it was her body or labor force. After all, Henry owed her grandfather that

favor, not her.

But now, she was thinking about that.

Jessica only wanted to spend the year flatly with Oliver. She had never thought that this was not an

easy year. But she had to solve the problem, for Oliver and for the company.

She had to come forward. The source of all the matters started with the conflict between her and Alice,

and Aaron wanted to help avenge Alice.

After making the decision, she planned to go to the Zamani's first to plead for forgiveness and request

Henry's agreement to sell the land to the Williams Group.

But now that Henry was living a cloistered life, it was not easy to contact him.

Fortunately, Sally could help. She was an executive of the Zamani Group. Perhaps she could be a

middle person.

After Jessica got off work, she asked Sally to go to the private restaurant they had been to for dinner.

When Sally arrived, she wore a dark gray suit and eight-centimeter high heels. It could easily be found

from her dress-up that she had gone here from work.

Every time she saw Sally, she would give her a different feeling. Her style was really flexible, but her

smile always made her feel at ease.

Jessica greeted Sally with a smile at the door. "Sally, thank you for coming here."

"Aren't there any handsome boys to accompany us? Or it's just you and me?"

"How can I invite such figures? Just the two of us, okay?"

"I was just kidding. I've been looking forward to coming over for dinner, but I haven't booked a table yet.

Thanks to you, I can enjoy a big meal today."

"I only got the position because of the Williams Group." Jessica smiled with a little shyness.

They ordered some food and chatted, then they talked about Aaron being beaten to the hospital by

Oliver.

"Miss White, you're Mr. Williams's secretary. Do you know what happened?"

Others only knew that the fighting was probably because the engagement was canceled by the Zamani

Family, and Oliver beat up the people of the Zamani Family to regain dignity.

Sally knew more or less about Oliver. She knew there must be another reason but she didn't know

exactly, so she asked Jessica.

Jessica didn't know how to ask for help. Since Sally asked, she just said openly, "Because of me."

Sally's gossipy eyes began to scan Jessica, and she said in surprise, "Did they fight because of

jealousy?"

"It's not about jealousy. But the conflict was caused because of me."

Sally liked to watch men's jealousy for a girl's favors, which was far more interesting than Lambert's

pathetic story. She joked, "So you invited me to dinner for..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Jessica blurted out, "Could you help me contact Mr. Henry

Zamani."

Sally thought she was going to visit Aaron because he refused all visits from Williams Family since he

was hospitalized. Of course, Oliver never intended to see him after that.

"Do you know Mr. Zamani?"

"I saw him a few times when I was a child."

"Are you doing it for Oliver himself or for the Williams Group?"

"Both. To tell you the truth, Oliver is my husband. Anyway, I can't just stand by."

When Sally heard the word "Husband," the cup in her hand almost fell on the ground.
