Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica)
Chapter 265

Gavin hadn't seen Jessica after he came back. He couldn't wait anymore.

"Lucas, ask Jessica if I can get in now. I'll come out as soon as I see her,” he said.

Lucas was urged by him, so he had no choice but to ask Jessica again.

This time, Jessica did not resist.

Lucas said his father, and her mother's friend, coming back especially for her. So she must see him.Jessica blinked.

Lucas knew that she had agreed, so he went out and called Gavin in.

Gavin was extremely nervous as he walked to Jessica's bed.

He realized that her injuries were far more serious than he had imagined, as he saw that her wholeface was wrapped in white gauze at first glance.

The scene rip his heart into pieces, but there was a smile on his face. "Jessica, I come to see you. Justrecuperate and don't have to think about anything. I won't let anyone hurt you again.”

Jessica's eyes glistened with tears.

After he said a few words, he called Lucas out.

"Go talk to Jessica. I want to take her back to Holland to recuperate. She's in a rural hospital now. Itsmedical conditions are not good enough and she will suffer. She must leave here as soon aspossible.”

Lucas also wanted to take Jessica back to Holland, but he didn't expect so soon.

His and Gavin's ideas were in tune.

Lucas went back to Jessica's ward and wrote down what he wanted to say.

Then, he said it again.

To confirm Jessica's thoughts, he wrote down two options.

One was to leave Birmingham immediately.

The other was to stay here.

Lucas showed Jessica the written paper and asked her to choose with her fingers.

He saw Jessica use her little white hand to point to the option of leaving Birmingham immediately.He said excitedly, "I'll tell father.”

Gavin was waiting outside for news of Lucas, and he was not sure whether Jessica would want toleave the place where she grew up.

He saw Lucas come out. "How was it? Did she agree?"

Lucas raised his hand and was about to give Gavin a high-five.

"Good. Good. Good." Gavin repeated the word gladly.

As long as Jessica was willing to leave, the way he discussed with Lan would be easy to implement.Gavin asked Lucas to take good care of Jessica and went to Lan's house.

They decided to tell Oliver the truth that Jessica had been scratched in the face and thrown into theriver when Oliver came to them.

Lan immediately followed Gavin's instructions and began to prepare for the plan.

Lucas soon found out about Gavin's plan and agreed.

Gavin had asked his secretary to replace the best dermatologist in Holland to treat the scars onJessica's face.

He was about to take her back to Holland.

The next day.

Oliver arrived at QN Town.

Because he had got the exact message that Jessica was here.

When Oliver arrived at the hospital, no matter how hard Lan’s subordinates tried to stop him, theyfailed.

They had no choice but to let Oliver go into Jessica's ward.

"Lucas, where's Jessica?" Oliver shouted at the door.

Lucas was sitting next to Jessica's bed in a daze. He had been waiting for him inside for a long timeand knew that he would replace him.

"You're a step late," Lucas said in a grieved tone.

"Tell me, where is she now?"

Seeing his sorrow, Oliver had a bad suspect.

"She's gone," Lucas said.

"No way, no way. She just didn't want to see me and deliberately avoided me. Did she know I wascoming this time and run away again?”

Lucas said sternly, with dissatisfaction with Oliver, as if all of this was caused by his inaction."Oliver, if you can replace her here, you should know her face was scratched beyond recognition andthrown into the river. How likely do you think she will survive?"

He did replace out the news. To replace Jessica, ten rescue dogs were used to get Jessica out of the river inthe middle of the night.

He didn't know much about what happened after she arrived at the hospital.

Oliver closed his eyes and said, "I must see her, no matter alive or dead.”

"I don't think you should. Then her beauty will remain perfect in your memory."

"No, no matter what she looks like, I must see her."

Oliver was unwilling to accept the truth. As long as he didn't see the body, Jessica would liveforever.

"Since you have made up your mind, you can come with me."

Lucas led Oliver around to the innermost house in the corridor.

As soon as he got closer, he smelled a foul odor.

As a man obsessed with cleanliness, he almost vomited out at the disgusting smell.

He endured the discomfort and followed Lucas.

When they arrived, there were two doctors in white coats at the door.

"She's here now. If you want to go in and see her, I'll ask the doctor to take you in." Lucas said."Take me there quickly,” Oliver said to the doctors

Lucas had a mask and gloves in his pocket, so he took them out and handed them to Oliver. "Youwill need these."

Oliver put on the mask and gloves and followed the doctor into the room.

Inside was a bed covered in white.

Oliver walked over and lifted the white cloth.

Under the white cloth was the body of a long-haired woman, but it was unrecognizable aftersoaking in the water for a long time.

Judging from her hair and figure, she looked exactly like Jessica.

Oliver gently covered the white cloth and walked out in a daze.

"Lucas, I'm taking her to Birmingham."

"Oliver, I hope you let Jessica go. She told me that if anything happened in the future, she would beburied in the countryside and never go back to Birmingham.”

Oliver frowned. "But her grandmother and family are in Birmingham."

He knew that Jessica and her grandma were so close that she would rather stay by her side."Indeed, she has a good relationship with her grandma. However, she called me earlier and said thather name was ominous and that it was bad for the people around her. Whoever got involved withher didn't have a good result, so she wanted to go to a place that no one knew. That's why sheescaped to this town.”

Oliver listened to Lucas and did not know how to answer.

It was him. It was all his fault.

Oliver said coldly, "I'll bid her farewell properly.”

"But she doesn't want to see you at her funeral, or else she won't be content on her path.”
