Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica)

Chapter 135

But she was surprised to see a woman sitting next to Oliver. She had a hunch that this woman should

be his secretary.

They were talking while eating in the conference room.

But the door was so soundproof that she didn't hear them at all.

The woman was wearing exquisite makeup and her hair in a bun. But the way she looked at Oliver

made Jessica feel uncomfortable.

This woman looked at Oliver with admiration and love in her eyes.

It suddenly occurred to her that Oliver had been acting strangely recently, and she couldn't help

imagining things.

She quietly left and went downstairs to ask Garfield to take her home.

After lunch in the conference room, Oliver returned to his office. He saw a thermal lunch box on the

table and called Simon to asked who had come to his office.

But Simon didn't know at all.

Oliver opened the lunch box and found there were all his favorite dishes.

He picked up his phone and saw two missed calls from Jessica, so he called back.

Sitting in the car, Jessica felt her mind was in a mess. She turned off her phone even without checking

who was calling.

She kept thinking that Oliver had been acting weird lately. He didn't want her to overhear his calls, and

he came back late every day with a thoughtful face.

So when she saw him having lunch with his secretary, she thought he had a mistress.

She had read some news on the Internet, most of which were related to pregnancy. And she learned

that pregnant women's husbands were more likely to cheat on them.

She was in a panic and didn't want to go back to GrandVille Apartments now. She asked the driver to

take her to Williams Hospital to visit her grandma.

The driver, Garfield, had received a call from Oliver. So Oliver knew that Jessica had come to his office

and left without a word. There must be a reason.

Only then did he realize that he had lunch with Jasmine in the conference room.

As his secretary, Jasmine helped order food for him. They had just finished a meeting in the conference

room so they had lunch there. And Jasmine had something to talk to him, so she told her while eating,

which could save their time.

But he didn't expect to be seen by Jessica.

Jessica arrived at the hospital, but her grandma was enjoying the sunshine downstairs. It took her

some time to find her grandmother there.

Her grandma was very happy to see her, but soon she found that her expression was not good.

"Jessica, is everything okay?"

Jessica wanted to say she was fine, but her eyes turn red after she opened her mouth.

She sat on the grass and said slowly, "I just feel like Oliver and I have different worlds. I always stay at

home, but he had his colleagues in the company and they can share their ideas. But he doesn't have

many in common with me."

Jessica told her a lot, and her grandma knew that there seemed to be something wrong between them.

"Jessica, pregnant women may have many thoughts. You should tell Oliver directly what you're thinking

about."

However, she didn't have any evidence. Should she ask Oliver to fire the secretary just because of her

suspicion? She shouldn't interfere with his work.

Besides, she didn't know anything about the company.

Then she told her grandma about her learning drawing from Hayden. After spending the afternoon with

her grandmother, she felt much better.

In the evening, she had dinner with her grandmother in the hospital before she went back.

By the time she got home, Oliver had already come back. He had made dinner, waiting for her.

Jessica said she had eaten and then went straight upstairs.

Oliver followed her up and asked her why she went to the company and then left without telling him.

She said that she didn't want to disturb his work. But she did not tell him that she had seen him eating

with Jasmine.

However, Oliver could tell that she was unhappy.

After Jessica returned to the room, she took a shower and went to bed early. After reading for a while,

she was ready to fall asleep.

Oliver asked her if she was feeling unwell.

"No, I just want to go to bed early."Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

The man then went to the study, finished his work, and came back to accompany her.

Jessica was not sleepy at all. Now the man sleeping beside her, made her feel very pressured.

Oliver noticed her tossing and turning on the bed, so he wrapped her in his arms.

"Did you see me having dinner with my secretary today? And that's why you're unhappy?"

Jessica said softly, "Yes, I did."

"Why didn't you knock on the door and go in?"

"That's impolite. And I didn't use to be a jealous woman, right?"

"You never were." Then he thought to himself, 'I wish you were.'

"But I think your secretary has feelings for you. Did you receive any signal?"

Oliver understood what she was thinking. "I see. I won't eat with her alone in the future."

"I'm not trying to keep you away from your colleagues, but..."

Before she could finish her sentence, the man kissed her on the lips.

Perhaps it was because they hadn't done something intimate for a long time, she blushed as red as a

rose, and she could feel his turn-on.

She wanted more, but the man suddenly stopped.

"You're pregnant. It's not safe. We can do it later." The man held back his desire.

"The doctor had said we can do that in the early stage of pregnancy, as long as we're careful."

But Oliver didn't dare to because he had almost hurt her last time.

He looked at Jessica's innocent face, and he needed some time to recover from the sadness.

"I'm afraid I'll hurt you and the child." He said, then put on his pajamas and went to the bathroom.

Jessica felt that their relationship would be affected because they couldn't do something intimate when

she was pregnant.

She knew they could do that.

However, Oliver rejected her.
