Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica)
Chapter 67

Jessica sat in the interrogation room, and two people came in. Theyasked her some questions and then one of them said, "You are guilty ofintentional injury. Stay here.”

Jessica's eyes were filled with shock.

“What bullshit law is this? Without any evidence, I'm convicted ofintentional injury. You gotta be f*cking kidding me.’

"I want a lawyer."

"Shut up.”

Jessica knew that the Zamani's must have asked the police to makethings difficult for her. At this moment, she was really a little scared.After all, with their power, they could decide what crime she hadcommitted, and she might have to go to jail. But Jessica forgot oneperson, her nominal husband.

Lambert and Sally arrived at the police station.

Lambert asked the police to let her go. But the ordinary police didn'thave the right. They could only report to deputy director Warren.

Soon, Warren came back from the office with a big smile on his face."Oh, Mr. Williams, why are you here? Please come to my office.”"Please let Miss White go,” Lambert said to Warren.

"Mr. Williams, come in and have some tea. I'll ask them about the case.”Warren felt a little guilty. Just now, Aaron called and arranged for thepolice station to interrogate Miss White. Now, Lambert came and askedhim to let her go. He was in an embarrassing position now. He couldn'tafford to offend either of these two families. He was so anxious that hesweated profusely. He went to the bathroom and called chief Tom forinstructions.

"Chief, there's something going on. I need your advice." Warren gavethe chief a general description of the matter.

"Who came?" Tom asked.

"That painter.” Warren knew that Lambert was a painter. He often paidattention to the news in Birmingham, and he read about him in thenewspaper the other day.

"You comforted him first and said that she would be released later. Askhim to go back first.”

Tom was the one who knew the most about Birmingham's upper-classsociety. He knew every young master's power in the family very well.Otherwise, he wouldn't have been in the position of chief for decades.He even knew that the two brothers of the Williams Family were not ongood terms.

He handled the car accident that year by himself and had inferred thatsomeone deliberately wanted to kill Oliver. In the end, there was noevidence, so he could only end the case in an ordinary car accident.Besides, Lambert's status couldn't be compared to Aaron's. Although hewas the eldest young master of the Williams Family, because his motherwasn't the legal wife when she gave birth to him at that time, hisidentity was a little embarrassing in the Williams Family. Apart from thefact that he was more loved by the master of the Williams Family, hedidn't seem to be valued by the others of the Williams Family.

Aaron was different. He was the heir to the Zamani Family.

Although the Zamani Family was not as powerful as the Williams Family,Lambert was the one who stood for the Williams Family. After weighingthe pros and cons, they could only make such a compromise.

Warren basically conveyed the director's meaning to Lambert, in a moretactful and acceptable way.

"Mr. Williams, you know that this matter involves the Zamani Family. Ifwe do not handle it well, it will be bad that it may affect the relationshipbetween the Zamani Family and your family. You can go in and see MissWhite first. When we get the whole thing clear, we can explain it to you.I guarantee that she will be fine.”

In fact, Lambert was downstairs then. He didn't know what happenedbetween Jessica and Alice, so he agreed with what Warren said andwent in to see Jessica.

Jessica didn't expect Lambert to come in, "Lambert, why are you here?"Lambert saw Jessica sitting inside and asked, "Are you okay? I'm reallysorry. If I hadn't asked you to go to the exhibition, this wouldn't havehappened.”

He felt very guilty. He had somehow caused this, and he didn't expectJessica and Alice to meet. Although he believed that Jessica wasinnocent no matter what happened, others wouldn't. After all, it wastrue that Alice fell from the second floor and was injured.

"It's not your fault. I'm fine. The police will let me go back when theyreplace out the truth. Don't forget that I'm pregnant. They can't doanything to me."

"I've already called a lawyer. He's on the way. Don't worry too much.”"Thank you. It's getting late. You can go back first. And please apologizeto Mr. Halper for me, because I'm afraid that I will ruin the openingceremony of the art exhibition. When I go out, I will apologize to him inperson.”

"Don't think too much. When the lawyer comes, we'll figure it out.”When Lambert saw Jessica inside, Sally called Oliver, but no oneanswered, so she had to send him a message.

Oliver had been extremely busy recently that he had been busy seeinghis business partners. He had no time to check his phone and had toput it in the drawer of his office. Because Simon had arranged theschedule in the company for him, anything would only go throughSimon first and then Simon would let him know. Otherwise, it would beexhausting for him to deal with everything personally.

When he was about to go home after finishing his work at thecompany, he opened the drawer and picked up his phone. He saw apage of missed calls from Sally. He wanted to leave them alone, but thetext messages were especially scary.

“What? That woman is in the police station?"

Jessica actually told Sally about their relationship. He didn't expect thetwo of them to go to the point where they share everything.

“What did this stupid woman do to send herself into the police station?"Oliver was quite interested to know about it.

"Simon, drive to the police station,” Oliver ordered.

Simon was a little confused. He didn't know that his creepy boss" wifewas going to be put into jail probably.

"Police station? Mr. Williams, you don't have to go to the police stationyourself. If you need anything, I'll call Tom."

"No, just drive.”

Simon did not dare to ask more and drove to the police stationobediently.

When Oliver arrived, he saw Lambert inside, talking to a man in a darksuit with a briefcase in his hand, who looked like a lawyer.

Lambert also saw him and walked over. "Jessica and Alice had somediscord afternoon at the art gallery. The Zamani Family called thepolice.”

Oliver said coldly, "Why are you here?"

"I was there too, so I followed here."

"Why are you everywhere? Didn't I tell you not to pester my wife?"
