Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica)

Chapter 194

Just as Jessica walked downstairs, her cell phone rang in her pocket.

She glanced at the phone number. It was another strange number from Birmingham.

Since she happened to notice the call this time, she naturally answered it.

Jessica put the phone between her neck and shoulder. Because the thing she was carrying was too

heavy, she had to change her hands to answer the phone.

She said "Hello" and then heard a man's voice on the other end of the phone.

It was undoubtedly Lambert.

"You finally answered the phone." He said.

Jessica was a little flustered. Although Lambert was not in front of her, she could not help but be

nervous.

She knew that Lambert would find her one day, but she didn't expect to be found so soon.

As long as he did not follow her to York, she could still escape. She wouldn't go back until the baby was

born.

"How do you get my number?" She tried to calm herself down, but her trembling voice betrayed her.

Lambert did not answer her because he got Jessica's phone number by dirty means.

Since nurse Lannan went to the hospital, Lambert knew that Jessica must have contacted Lannan.

So he checked Lannan's recent calls and found a strange phone number, which was undoubtedly

Jessica's.

He had called her several times the night before but the line was busy all the time. He thought he had

the wrong number and wanted to bring Lannan over to ask her directly.

He tried again this morning, but he got through to her.

Lambert said coldly, "You really want to leave me,?"

"Yes. So please let me go."

"Aren't you worried about your grandma?"

Jessica could tell that Lambert was threatening her.

However, she was no longer afraid of him because she knew that her grandma was still in Williams

Hospital and everything was fine.

"Of course, I'm worried about her, but she will understand my decision." Jessica retorted. She didn't

want Lambert to control her emotions.

"Really? Aren't you afraid that your grandma's condition will worsen? If anything happens, you will

regret it."

Jessica said, "If you have nothing else to say, I'll hang up. I don't have time to talk to you so much

now."

"Why don't you ask me where I am now?" Lambert said gloomily.

"I'm not interested in it."

Then Jessica heard Lambert walking around, and someone called him Mr. Williams.

She also heard someone calling doctors and nurses as if they were preparing for an operation.

Lambert sneered. "Before the operation, do you want to talk to your grandma?"

"Lambert, what did you do to her?"

Jessica suddenly had an ominous presentiment. Something must have happened to her again.

The bag in her hand suddenly fell to the ground, and things were scattered all over the ground.

Jessica looked solemn. Tears welled up in her red eyes.

A kind passer-by helped her pick things up and pack them.

Jessica bent down slowly and slumped on the ground.

There were more people coming and going in front of the hotel, and they looked back at her from time

to time. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

David had just investigated and told her that everything was fine with grandma. But why when Lambert

was there, grandma suffered a relapse?

She couldn't believe that Lambert would force her back at the risk of her grandma's health.

She didn't know when he had become a cruel and heartless demon.

Lambert heard Jessica sobbing.

"Stay there. I'll pick you up myself." Lambert said cooly as if nothing had happened.

Jessica got up the stairs to the hotel room in a daze.

If anything happened to her grandma, she would be desperate.

She had never thought that the father of the child in her womb would be like this. How could she give

the child to such a cruel and despicable person?

It was only expedient to go back now as she had to take care of her grandma.

Jessica lay directly on the bed, her mind blank.

In the afternoon, Lambert arrived in York.

He went straight to the hotel where Jessica was staying and asked the receptionist downstairs for her

room number.

At first, the receptionist was unwilling to tell him.

It was mainly because she saw Jessica come back in a daze this morning.

Lambert didn't look kind and had two bodyguards behind him.

However, she could tell at first glance that Lambert was not a local, so she was not afraid.

She wondered if Jessica had provoked someone, and now he was here to catch her.

The receptionist said, "Please wait a moment. I have to call and ask if the guest allows you to go

upstairs."

Lambert had just called Jessica, but no one answered, so he had to wait for the receptionist to call

directly to the room.

In a moment, the phone in the room was connected. Jessica asked the receptionist to tell them the

room number and let them go straight up.

When Lambert arrived at Jessica's room, the door was already open.

He saw Jessica sitting on the sofa with a haggard face. She had already finished packing.

Before Lambert could say anything, Jessica said, "Let's go."

Seeing some fast food on the table, Lambert guessed that Jessica might not have eaten yet.

He ordered the bodyguards to buy some food for her.

"Jessica, eat something before we go," Lambert said.

Jessica remained silent.

She remembered that when she broke up with Oliver in Lambola City, it was also Lambert who came to

pick her up.

That night, to celebrate her freedom, they also ordered a lot of dishes at the hotel.

Unexpectedly, the same thing happened again.

Jessica smiled bitterly. She couldn't get rid of the Williams family.

She did not know whether because she owed the Williams family too much in her previous life, so in

this life, Oliver and Lambert took turns torturing her.

Jessica had been leaning against the sofa with her head down. Now she felt disgusted to even look at

Lambert.

She didn't want to say a word more to him.

A moment later, the bodyguards brought the food up.

Jessica picked up her chopsticks and ate. She hadn't eaten well for several days and seemed to be

very hungry.

She wanted to swallow all her grievances, sadness, and unspeakable bitterness, together with the

food.

Especially when Lambert was talking in her ear, she was not willing to listen to him at all. She stuffed

her mouth, so she could ignore him.

"Take your time. We're not in a hurry."

Lambert rarely saw Jessica eat like this. He hadn't seen her for only a few days, but it seemed that she

had completely changed.
