Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica)
Chapter 296

Marina was in bed now and couldn't move.

She asked Jason to hand Vivian water.

She still wanted to get along with Vivian so that Vivian might help her with her business in thefuture.

Vivian certainly knew what Marina meant.

She comforted Marina for a while and left.

Marina asked Jason to send her off.

Jason sent Vivian downstairs and talked to her about some business matters.

He was worried about the company now. With Marina's help, the affairs in the company could beeasier for him.

Now that Marina was in the hospital and she could not work for at least three months.

At this critical moment, he could only run business by himself.

He would just try everything he can.

He know that Vivian's company was a trading company, but he still asked if she had any clients thatshe could introduce to him.

Vivian told Jason that her trading company was just a small branch of the group. The business in thehead office of the group was very extensive, and maybe there would be a chance to cooperate withhim.

The more ambiguous she spoke, the more afraid he was of losing the opportunity. In front of Vivian,he repeatedly said that he was a very good partner.

Especially his last act was a good proof.

Jason didn't give up. He talked to her for a long time.

Vivian, on the other hand, was not in a hurry. She listened to him patiently and estimated the time inher heart.

Just as Vivian and Jason left, Jane came to Marina's ward.

When Marina saw her come in, she thought Jane had gone to the wrong ward.

However, after a few more glances at her, Marina was shocked.

Before Jane came in, she put on the makeup in the bathroom. This time, she looked much likeZelda.

She came in with a fake smile, and she was cold and indifferent.

Marina thought she was mad. How could she think of this woman who came in as Zelda?

Her hands began to tremble.

What happened these days was too strange.

She said in a trembling voice, "You... Who are you? What's your relationship with that woman?"

"Is that woman you're talking about Zelda?" Jane asked with a sneer.

The reason Jane made herself look like Zelda was that she began to investigate the truth about hermother's death.

Zelda had been depressed for a long time, and she was a little crazy.

However, at that time, Jessica had always thought that her mother was a very optimistic person. Forsome reason, after Terence died, Zelda always thought that someone was trying to harm her.

Zelda often took a lot of pills.

The Youngren family had no history of mental illness. After Jane came back, she had ascertained thetruth through investigations.

She wondered why Zelda would suffer this disease at that time.

At that time, for Jane's sake, Lan had also secretly investigated Zelda's situation, which was verynormal in all aspects.

Moreover, Jane knew Tina's age was close to hers, so Jason must have already been together withMarina.

If she wasn't Jason's biological daughter, they could do anything for the property of the Youngrenfamily, from what she knew about Jason and Marina.

However, it was difficult to replace convincing evidence now.

Therefore, Jane came up with this idea to trick Marina while she was in illness.

She wanted to see if she could make Marina speak out the truth.

What happened in the elevator yesterday was arranged in advance by Jane as well.

She just made Marina feel insecure.

She had heard of Marina's superstition long ago, so she wanted to scare Marina by pretending tobe a ghost of Zelda.

Perhaps it was more useful than torture.

Just as she said the word "Zelda", Marina was completely frightened. Her eyes widened and shelooked around.

Marina thought to herself, "could it be that Zelda had become a ghost and revenged herself?"

She wanted to move back, only to replace that she could not move at all, and her scalp was numb fromthe pain due to her movement.

At this critical moment, she wished Jason was here. At least he could help her deal with Zelda, justlike what they used to do.

However, she called Jason a few times and no one responded.

"Who are you and what do you want to do?"

Marina was in the bed. At this time, she was petrified. What happened yesterday was still scared her,and now Zelda's ghost came to her in the hospital. She was afraid that she might be killed.

Jane said, "I'm Zelda. Thank you for remembering me.”

"You're already dead. I don't believe you're Zelda. Why would you come to me at this time.” Marinasaid, enduring the pain.

"Yes, I let you live for so many years, and I think that's enough. Now, it's time for you to pay back.”Jane sneered.

At this time, Marina was almost unable to tell whether it was reality or her imagination.

Last night, things happened because of her overthinking.

She tried to calm herself down, but her mind was completely out of control.

"I'm already miserable. I've had my retribution. I beg you to spare me.” Marina said in a low voice.Why did she think she was so miserable? The revenge just got started!

"Please, you shouldn't come to me. It was all Jason's fault. He's the one who plans all this.”

Marina was sweating profusely and completely freaked out.

She had always been afraid, mainly because she had done too many bad things to Jessica andZelda.

Now the retribution finally came.

When Jane heard this, she knew there was something peculiar about Zelda's death. Jason andMarina must have played a decisive role in it.

She continued to scare Marina, “Then tell me about Jason's crime first. If it's true, I can let you go. Atleast I won't let you suffer as much as you do now. Otherwise, it won't be just falling down the stairsnext time."

Jane realized that intimidation was useful, so she continued.

Marina listened to her. What happened yesterday was indeed not an accident.

The elevator, which was originally fine, but suddenly went wrong. While walking down the stairs, agloomy voice echoed, which made her mind went blank for a moment, and then she fell down thestairs.

Now she was in bed and suffering.

It was so scary.

"It was Jason who drugged you. It was all him. He always said to me that you were infertile. If youcouldn't give birth to a child, then Jason wouldn't be able to rightfully own all the property of theYoungren family."

Marina was also furious. Thinking of Jason's recent performance, she was mad at him.

She just wanted to defend herself and let Jason take the whole blame.
