Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica)

Chapter 169

A few days after Jessica had moved in, guests visited here.

She was sunbathing in the yard at that time when she saw an elegant middle-aged woman walking

towards her. Amy followed her.

Amy led the woman to Jessica and said, "Miss White, this is Mr. Williams's mother, Vicky Larner."

Jessica had never heard Lambert mention his mother before. All she knew was that Lambert grew up

with Jeff at the Old Residence.

Jessica looked at the woman in front of her and found that she must be very beautiful when she was

young.

No wonder Lambert's father couldn't forget her for such a long time that he has been holding a secret

relationship with her even after he had got married.

Telling from her exquisite and luxurious clothes, she knew that Lambert's father treated this woman well

materially.

Jessica stood up and nodded to her, "Glad to see you."

She stared at Jessica and then gave Jessica a strange and thorough look. "You are Jessica?"

Jessica nodded. "I am."

Vicky turned around, glanced at her, and said, "Let's talk inside."

Jessica followed her and walked into the living room.

As soon as they came in, Vicky sat directly in the main seat.

Jessica had to stand by. After a few seconds, it seemed that Vicky had no intention to allow Jessica to

sit down.

Just as she was about to sit, Vicky said, "I'm the elder here. I haven't asked you to sit down yet."

Jessica was just about to sit. At Vicky's words, she sat directly on the sofa instead, adjusted herself to a

comfortable position, and leaned on the back of the sofa.

"I'm being polite because you are older than me," Jessica said.

Vicky's face was livid with anger at Jessica's words.

"Amy, serve the tea," Vicky said sharply, trying to set some rules for them.

Amy immediately replied, "Yes, Mrs. Williams."

When Jessica heard that Amy was calling her Mrs. Williams, she guessed that it was actually

proclaimed by herself.

She remembered that Oliver's father had never divorced Maggie. How did this woman get the title of

Mrs. Williams?

"How many months have you been pregnant?" Vicky asked coldly.

"Only a few months." Jessica didn't want to share anything more with Vicky about her personal affairs.

"I heard from Lambert that he will be responsible to the child in your belly, so he brought you here to

have rest."

"I'm not quite sure about it. You'd better ask Lambert." Jessica said.

At this moment, Amy came up with tea. "Mrs. Williams, please have some tea."

"Leave us alone," Vicky said. She pretended to be the hostess in the house, which made Jessica

surprised.

"I heard you and Oliver had a short marriage." Vicky began to get down to business.

Jessica remained silent and started to drink tea.

"I don't know what kind of tricks you are playing at Lambert. But as long as I'm here, you won't be able

to marry into the Williams family." She warned as if she was gnashing.

Jessica almost burst out laughing. She said, "I think that you are not a member of the William family."

Vicky raised her eyebrow and sneered, "It must be the b*tch's son who had slandered me a lot in front

of you."

The woman she mentioned was Oliver's mother, Maggie. Jessica didn't expect that she would call

Daniel's original wife b*tch.

Oliver had never mentioned Lambert's mother in front of Jessica. Probably he disdained to mention

her.

"I'm afraid it is not appropriate to gauge people with your mean measure."

Jessica's words made Mrs. William, who had been controlling her temper, burst out in an instant. She

raised her voice and shouted, "How dare you, you strange woman."

Jessica said, "I have a name. I'm not a strange woman. You had just called my name."

"How dare you talk back?" Vicky was burning with anger.

Jessica was a little surprised. A woman who was looked so elegant would say something disrespectful

and unfounded.

"I'm telling the truth. I can't help it if you think I'm contradicting you."

Vicky had thought that Jessica was only a beautiful idiot who had temporarily attracted her son. She

believed that her son brought her home only for the sake of the child in her belly, and did not expect

Jessica to be so eloquent that really infuriated her.

Vicky had never lived in the Old Residence and had never been recognized by the Williams family. In

the past, she had to be humble and quiet for protecting her son.

Since Lambert had become the president of the Williams Group, she believed that she was at a higher

status, so she became much more arrogant.

Other people who used to look down on her now began to compliment her. However, she didn't expect

that before she could set up her majesty, Jessica had stood against her.

"Give up the dream that you can do whatever you want without taking me seriously just because you

have Lambert's child."

Jessica sneered. Vicky was really an expert in making unfounded countercharges. It was she who

didn't respect Jessica first. Now she laid all the blames on Jessica.

"Well, I have no time drinking tea with you." Jessica stood up and returned to her room.

Vicky was left sitting alone in the living room furiously.

When Vicky met Daniel, the Williams family did not enjoy the current status and wealth.

Later, for the development of the Williams family, Jeff broke them up and let Daniel marry a girl in the

famous Mellis family in Birmingham.

She had always been an outsider, even after giving birth to Lambert. She was never recognized as a

member of the Williams family even after Oliver's mother had died.

In the past, in finding the best way to Daniel's heart, she had been trying her best to do everything to

please him.

She had always been proud of her son who had grown up and become an outstanding man. Now, a

woman who did not care about her at all was going to steal her son away. She was really annoyed.

Jessica stayed in her room all day. Out of sight and out of mind.

In order to relieve her boredom, she began to knit. She started to knit a little scarf for the child in her

belly.

She brought these knitting tools from her previous home. Now they perfectly helped her to kill time.

In the evening, Lambert came back very late. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

He went into Jessica's room and found that she was knitting. He noticed that she was grim-faced.

Soon, he smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be so clever and could learn to do anything."

Jessica said tonelessly, "I can't even get out of the door. I'm just having fun."
