Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica)
Chapter 36

Jessica felt it incredible. Oliver had many drivers and assistants. Howcould he ask her to pick him up? "Did he really say that? Simon is theone who helps him with his work."

"Yes, Young Master asked you to pick him up yourself."

Jessica didn't know what was wrong with this man tonight. He hadasked her to sleep on the bed, which show his concern, but then heasked her to pick him up in the middle of the night, ignoring that shewas pregnant and needed to have a good rest.

"Ask the driver to get the car ready. I'll be right down."

The driver drove Jessica to the club.

It was Jessica's first time here. According to the sign, she took theelevator upstairs and found room 6868.

She knocked on the door but no one answered. Maybe nobody hadheard the knock.

Jessica hesitated at the door for a while. Just as she was about to leave,she saw Alice walking towards her.

"Jessica? What are you doing here?"

Alice looked at Jessica with disdain.

"Good evening, Miss."

"You work for Mr. Williams during working hours, but you don't need tofollow your boss after work, right? If Oliver knows it, he will kick you outof the Williams Group immediately.”

"Sorry, I went to the wrong place.”

Then Jessica bypassed Alice and was about to leave here.

"Since you're here, don't leave. As Oliver's secretary, you should at leasthelp him drink a few glasses of wine."

As soon as Alice pushed the door open, a strong smell of alcoholdirectly came into Jessica's nostrils, making her feel sick.

Jessica had to put down her hand that had been covering her mouth.She saw that there were many men and women in the room. BesidesOliver and Alice, she didn't know anyone else.

She had seen some of them before during the opening ceremony ofthe Fox Mountain Residence.

"Who is this?" Someone asked.

"She is Oliver's secretary.”

"Mr. Williams, we asked you to call your wife here, but why did you askyour secretary here? It seems that we should punish you with moredrinks. How mysterious your wife is! You didn't even invite us to attendyour wedding."

Oliver lay on the sofa with eyes closed, without answering. No oneknew if he was drunk or fell asleep.

Alice picked up the whiskey on the table and gave Jessica a glass."Jessica, have a drink."

Jessica was pregnant and couldn't drink any alcohol at all. "Sorry, Miss, Ican't."

"Are you a weak drinker, or are you deliberately embarrassing me?”"Can I replace it with water?" Jessica saw a few bottles of water on thetable, unscrewed one of them, and poured herself a cup of water."Jessica, we're not in the Williams Group, and it's not working time.Oliver will not protect you. Since you're here, you have to drink thiswhiskey."

Carl, who was beside Oliver, wanted to stop Alice. He walked to Jessicaand said, "Alice, we're here to celebrate Mr. Williams' wedding, don'truin the atmosphere. If Miss White can't drink, let me drink it for her.""No." Alice wanted to stop him, but Carl had already gulped it down."All right, you guys sit down.”

"Carl, you want to hook up with Oliver's secretary?"

"Come on, Alice, don't ruin my relationship with Mr. Williams.""Jessica, Carl has drunk it for you. Since you're here, give us a show tocelebrate Mr. Williams's wedding. You can't refuse this time."

Jessica looked at Oliver, who had been laying on the sofa. She knewthat he was not asleep and hoped that he could stop Alice's request,but he did not do anything.

She had been annoyed at being woken up in the middle of the night,but she still came here to pick up this man. However, the man acted likea stranger when his friends humiliated her.

Jessica said directly, "I'm sorry. I have work tomorrow. I gotta go."She was about to walk to the door but Alice was already standing infront of her. "Jessica, you gotta be kidding me. Tomorrow is Saturday.Have you hidden your identity and been a part-time worker?"Jessica's mind had been in a daze recently. It was an excuse to leave,but Alice didn't let her go.

"That's none of your business.”

Alice brought another glass of whiskey. "You seem to want me to feedyou the drink.”

Then Alice was about to pour whiskey directly into Jessica's mouth.Jessica grabbed the glass and threw it on the ground.

"What the f*ck did you do?" Alice raised her arm as she spoke with aferocious look. She wanted to slap Jessica.

But Oliver grabbed her hand before she could slap Jessica. She didn'tknow when did he stand behind her.

"Enough," Oliver yelled at her.

Alice pretended to sob. "Oliver, you're still protecting her."

"Carl, send Alice back."

"You should send her back since you've made her cry. I'll send Jessicaback.” Carl smiled evilly. He had asked Oliver to introduce Jessica tohim, but Oliver wasn't willing to. Carl felt Oliver so stingy because heeven didn't introduce his employee to him. Today was a goodopportunity, and he couldn't let it go.

"Are you insane?"

"Alice doesn't want me to send her back."

Martin, who had been sitting in the corner, quietly watched whathappened in the room, with a slight smile on his lips.

"Martin." Then he was suddenly called by Oliver.

"It's none of my business."

"Send Jessica back."

"Why Martin but not me?" Carl asked unhappily.

"Don't you think you're noisy?" Oliver glared at Carl.

Carl smiled helplessly. "Well, fine."

Martin opened the door. "Miss White, let's go."

Jessica found Martin was very polite, and he was the one who lookedmore like a good person among Oliver's friends.

"Thank you."

"Miss White, I'll take you home.”

Jessica didn't want Martin to know about her relationship with Oliver."Thank you, but I've already called a car. You don't have to take mehome. Thank you."

"Okay."

Martin saw Jessica get into a Rolls-Royce. It was Oliver's car.

"I didn't expect that."
