Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 226

"You don't have to be so negative about our relationship," Oliver said coolly.

Jessica smiled bitterly. "Do you know whose baby I'm carrying?"

Oliver was stunned and wondering why Jessica would ask this.

Jessica knew that he had accepted the child in her womb, and all he wanted was to be with her.

When he learned that Jessica was pregnant with someone else's child, he really wanted to throw this woman away immediately.

He and Simon even took Jessica to have an abortion.

However, because of Jessica's physical condition, she couldn't have the abortion in the end. So the baby was kept.

Oliver had already accepted this fact. Moreover, he had also made Tina pregnant.

They both had affairs with other people, so neither of them suffered.

Then, the two had experienced life and death together. As long as the two were alive and well together, what else could stop them?

Of course, Oliver knew that Jessica had an ex-boyfriend named Vincent. He didn't dig into this guy, because he felt that it was her past, so he didn't have to worry about it.

In the past, he had always thought that the child in Jessica's womb was Vincent's.

Asked by Jessica, he was a little confused.

"No matter whose child it is, I can accept it." He looked at Jessica with determination. "You'd better get well first. We'll talk about the rest later."

Since he had personally delivered the necklace made in Holland, he had accepted the child in her womb. He hoped that Jessica would understand.

Oliver was afraid that she would make a decision on impulse because too many things had happened recently.

He wanted to give each of them enough time to calm down before making a decision.

"The child is Lambert's," Jessica said.

Her words made Oliver dumbfounded.

Even though he had braced himself mentally, he did not expect to hear that.

Oliver's face instantly darkened, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly turned tense.

After a few seconds, the man said coldly, "I'll go out first."

Oliver directly left Jessica's ward without turning back.

No matter whose child Jessica was pregnant with, he could accept it. But he couldn't accept that Lambert was the father of the baby.

Lambert's mother not only hurt his mother before he was born but also killed his mother.

He would never forget his mother's murder.

Because of the car accident and the death of his mother, he also suffered a huge pain, both physically and mentally. This was something that was going to scar him forever.

However, after meeting Jessica, these mental scars were gradually healed by the warmth Jessica gave him, and he did not want to be immersed in pain all the time.

But Lambert had wanted to kill him.

Lambert not only coveted the position of president of the Williams Group but also wanted to take away his woman.

Lambert even joined forces with other families and hired snipers to assassinate him.

However, Oliver was lucky. Lambert and Vicky tried to kill him several times but he survived.

Oliver thought that he would live a peaceful life with Jessica after catching Vicky and Fred Larner, who killed his mother and drove Lambert out of Birmingham.

However, fate played a big trick on him.

Fate introduced him to Jessica, who made him feel the joys of life and then hit him hard.

Oliver walked to the office on the top floor in a daze.

Her eyes were red. She turned to see Oliver behind her and stood up.

"Mr. Williams, what exactly happened?" Jasmine sobbed.

"He got shot in Bali Island. Plus, he has a tumor in his chest and his illness has reached an advanced stage, so he is out of condition and unconscious."

Oliver said truthfully.

Jasmine knew that her father was a policeman, a dangerous profession, but she didn't expect that anything would happen to him abroad.

What made her even more upset was that she had no idea that her father had cancer.

She was a terrible daughter.

"Mr. Williams, please help me find the best doctor to treat my father."

She burst into tears again.

"You've been on the plane all night. You should go back and rest first. If you need any help, you can tell Simon."

When Jasmine left the ward, she looked back at Tom and followed Oliver away.

Oliver said to Simon, "Take her home first."

Simon nodded.

Jasmine stopped at the elevator and asked Oliver, "Mr. Williams, can I stop working abroad? I want to stay in Birmingham."

Oliver had never thought about that.

Hearing her words, he also felt it was not appropriate for her to work abroad alone. Moreover, no one knew if Tom would come to his senses.

"Come back to work after you're rested," Oliver said.
