Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica)
Chapter 79

Oliver sat in the study and saw the photos sent by Simon. These photostook almost all of Jessica's whereabouts with Lambert today. Theirintimate actions made him furious, especially the video of Lambertdraping clothes for Jessica in the cemetery.

What surprised him, even more, was that Oliver and Jessica had knowneach other for a long time.

But that woman still pretended not to know anything in front of him.Oliver clenched his hands and his knuckles turned white.

At this moment, Nanny Daisy knocked on the door of the study."Young master, Miss Tina White wants to invite you to the backyard.”"What's the matter?"

"Young master, Miss White said she has been in GrandVille Apartmentsfor so long, but she hasn't invited you to sit in the backyard and have achat yet. Today is the First Snow Day. She wants to invite you to thebackyard to enjoy the snow.”

Oliver was even angrier when he heard the words "enjoying the snow""Who wants to enjoy the snow with her?" Oliver said coldly.

"She's quite sad to be here alone. I often see her in a bad mood, andit's not good if it affects the child. Since she has spoken, you may goover and take a look."

When Oliver heard the word "child", his cold face softened a little andhe followed Nanny Daisy to the backyard.

It was the first time he had come here since Tina moved in. As soon ashe entered the hall, he smelled a faint fragrance.

Tina was much more particular about life than Jessica. Oliver had neverseen Jessica use perfume before, but she smelled especially good.

The furnishings in this room were even more luxurious than those inthe main house. He had told the butler that everything should bearranged according to Miss White's request.

Tina was wearing a pink cheongsam with a high slit, which wrapped herbody tightly. She began to gain some weight, but she looked good incheongsam with this figure.

She especially made some snacks, tea, and was still busy at the table.When she saw Oliver coming, she smiled happily and said, "Mr.Williams, you're here. Come and sit down.”

Tina stepped forward and pulled Oliver to the main seat. She pouredhim a cup of tea and whispered, "This is the black tea I specially madefor you."

Oliver picked up his teacup and took a sip. He didn't expect it to tasteso good. Looking at everything carefully arranged on the table, hethought if only that woman had done these things for him. He couldn'thelp but be distracted.

However, that woman was outside now, having a good time, and didn'tcome back even it was so late.

Tina saw the instant expression on Oliver's face when he was drinkingtea and knew that he should not hate it. Otherwise, he would notcontinue to drink it. She was full of joy in her heart. It seemed that shegave him a good impression.

"Mr. Williams, if you like it, I'll make it for you every day.”

Oliver's thoughts were interrupted by Tina's words, "Just let NannyWinnie do these things."

"These are all new ways to make tea. I especially learned it. How couldNanny Winnie know how to do this?"

Oliver didn't want to listen to this and said, "You've been in good healthrecently, right?”

"Yes, but I rarely see you and I'm a little lonely,” Tina spoke in acoquettish tone, and her face, with the light reflected by the pinkcheongsam, was like a peach blossom.

Hearing the word "lonely," Oliver looked away from her.

Tina grabbed Oliver's hand and placed it on her stomach, "Mr. Williams,don't you care about our baby?"

Oliver took out his hand and said nothing.

Tina looked at his gloomy face and did not dare to do it again.

The snow outside was still falling, as if there was no intention ofstopping. Through the large glass of the living room, he could see thatthe flowers and plants in the garden outside were covered with snow,and it was cold. Only the orange light in the yard emitted a few strandsof warmth.

Tina looked at Oliver staring blankly at the snow outside and said, "Mr.Williams, do you have any wishes? I heard that on the day of the FirstSnow if you make a wish with your beloved, it will come true.”

Oliver glanced at Tina and asked, "Really?"

Tina covered her mouth and smiled, "First Snow is related to love, somany couples choose to be with the person they like on this day.”When Oliver heard this, he suddenly put down the teacup in his handheavily. The tea that had just been added splashed out.

Tina picked up the tissue in panic and wiped it. She didn't know whatshe had said just now was wrong, which made Oliver unhappy. She hadbeen careful tonight to avoid making mistakes. She had thought aboutthese words carefully and even called Marina to discuss them. Theythought these words wouldn't reveal too much but express hermeaning at the same time.

She didn't expect Oliver to be angry. Tina's hand holding the paper wastrembling. She had no idea what she should do.

Just as she was in a dilemma, Nanny Daisy came over and said thatmadam was back.

Oliver got up and was about to leave. He glanced at Tina, who lookedflustered. He thought he had scared her just now. Before he left, hesaid, "Take good care of yourself.”

Tina was relieved. It seemed that Oliver still cared about her, at leastabout the child. She was happy and afraid, but her future plans couldbe foolproof.

Lambert's car arrived not far from the house. Jessica got out of the car alittle earlier to avoid being seen by Oliver. He seemed to be in a rageand changeable recently.

Lambert got out of the car, helped Jessica open the back door of thecar, and told her to be careful on the slippery road

Jessica was wearing high heels and almost fell down. Lambert only gotinto the car when he saw Jessica enter the door.

When Jessica went in, the butler helped open the door and handed heran umbrella.

The access to the main building in the yard has been cleared of snow.Jessica looked at the time and walked quickly to the hall. She kept herhead down and walked. Suddenly, a pair of leather shoes which wasshiny at night appeared in her eyes, and then a pair of straight suitpants came to her eyes when she looked up. She subconsciouslyswallowed hard.
