Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica)

Chapter 272

When Gavin heard what Lucas said, he immediately knew what "the bad thing" meant.

He pounded the table angrily and said, "Who the hell dares to bully my daughter?"

"I don't know yet. I haven't repaired the video," Lucas said.

Gavin was worried that Lucas would not be able to do it on his own, so he asked, "Do you need me to

get someone to help you?"

"No. If I can't fix it, no one can," Lucas said confidently.

He needed much time to study how the video had been destroyed. Besides, it had been a long time

before he got the video. If he had got it earlier, it would not be so difficult.

The biggest problem was that this video had been edited.

Therefore, it would take him some time. Lucas believed that he would be able to provide the original

video soon.

Gavin added, "I am thinking about getting a shrink for Jessica. I'm worried that she can't let go of the

past after she leaves the hospital and begins her normal life."

"If Jessica doesn't say anything, I think you don't have to do that. She might think we are treating her

like a patient with mental illness and would be even sadder."

They talked for a long time about how to make Jessica's future life better.

Soon, Jessica was discharged from the hospital.

Gavin had wanted her to stay in the hospital for a while longer for observation, so he had asked the

doctor to keep her there, or she would have left the hospital a long time ago.

She had to work.

She had spent a lot of money in the hospital.

After Gavin came out of Lucas's house, he went on a tour of inspection of a flower company affiliated

with Kim Group.

Lucas said that Jessica liked flowers very much. Gavin planned to let Jessica be in charge of the flower

company after she was discharged.

He had not paid attention to the flower company for a long time after he asked the professional

managers to run it. He just needed to look through the financial statements and work plans every year.

To pave the way for Jessica, he intended to familiarize himself with the company.

When the time came, he would bring Jessica here, giving her instructions. He just wanted to have more

opportunities to bond with Jessica.

Of course, he would ask the professional managers to assist Jessica so that she could quickly adapt to

the work.

Gavin also went to a garden nursery near the company, and there were many workers working.

He walked over and talked to the workers.

Just as he was leaving, he saw a man smoking in the flower bed during office hours. He was sweating

profusely and looking weird.

Gavin then asked the secretary to give him the information about that person.

He had to make sure there was nothing wrong with the employees in this company.

Because if something went wrong, it might cause Jessica a lot of trouble.

It had been huge progress for Jesicca to start her work in Holland, and complicated matters might

damage her confidence.

The secretary quickly showed Gavin the information about the weird employee.

The man's name was Luk who had smuggled here. He had been in Holland for many years and had

been granted legal residence after the amnesty.

His identity was valid, but his work and life were a mess.

Gavin then investigated the people who had worked with Luk and found out that Luk worked here

because he had been at the end of his ropes.

He had told those workers that he had come to Holland to prospect for gold, to live a luxurious life.

He had done some illegal things before and made a lot of money.

However, he had bought marihuana almost every day.

Therefore, he had spent all his money.

A person like him couldn't find a proper job, so he had pulled some strings and got this hourly job.

Hourly workers were protected by the law. If Luk's working here were reported to the Labor

Department, the whole company might be in trouble because of illegal employment.

Gavin immediately called Luk's superior in, asking him to get Luk out of here.

After Luk came back to work, he received a message from the foreman, saying he was fired.

Of course, he couldn't accept this. He had been looking for a job for many days and had bribed the

fellow countryman to get this job where he could eke out a living.

Luk began to shout in the garden, refusing to leave.

Gavin heard the noise and walked over.

When Luk saw Gavin, he knew the boss was here.

He hadn't expected his boss would be from the same place as he was.

So, he tried to throw himself at Gavin.

Gavin asked the person in charge to double his salary and fired him.

Luk's eyes lip up when he saw the cash. He was thrilled that he could buy marihuana the next few

days.

He didn't intend to work here for long, so he took the money and left.

Gavin then declared that Kim Group would never hire Luk.

...

Lucas finally made progress in fixing the video.

He was extremely excited. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

He immediately called Jessica and said he would bring his laptop to the hospital to show her some

fuzzy images first.

Jessica was in the hospital, waiting anxiously for the result.

She began to doubt Lambert's words that he himself had been the man she was with that night. She

thought he might have lied to her.

It took Jessica a while to figure out that Lambert was a person who would stop at nothing for what he

wanted.

Moreover, he had been good at concealing his real colors. He was nothing but the noble artist he

seemed to be when they first met.

This image was to cover up his evil intentions.

Lambert had always been bitter about his status in the Williams family.

He was jealous of Oliver and that Oliver could act like a spoiled child in the Williams family.

However, he could only play along and curry favor with the entire Williams family.

It was such a person who told her that he was the father of the child.

Jessica suspected that Lambert had insisted on marrying her not because he wanted to take

responsibility as the child's father or because he loved her.

He had approached her most likely because she was Oliver's wife.

Jessica was terrified.

She had been so wrong about Lambert and got herself hurt.

Perhaps if she hadn't been close with Lambert, she wouldn't have provoked Oliver or suffered so much.

The child in her belly wouldn't have suffered great harm or died not long after its birth.
