Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 152

Even Simon couldn't open it.

Speaking of which, Simon had already been transferred to the administrative office downstairs.

He wouldn't come upstairs if Jessica hadn't been suddenly visited Oliver's office.

He went to ask the secretaries, but they all said they didn't know. Their boss arranged it directly.

As for the other things, they kept silent.

"Is Lambert vice president now?" Jessica saw it on the news and asked him for confirmation.

"Yes, madam."

"Then take me to his office. I want to see him."

Lambert's office was also on the top floor, a little far from Oliver's. A large administrative office separated them.

Simon took Jessica to the door and knocked. Someone answered inside.

Simon opened the door and called, "Hi, Mr. Lambert."

Jessica saw Lambert reading the document.

He didn't even raise his head. "What's the matter?"

Jessica said, "I'm here to see you."

Lambert looked up and saw Jessica standing at the door.

"Madam, I'll leave you two alone," Simon said.

Lambert stood up and led Jessica to the sofa.

Jessica said, "I came here to get something from Oliver's office, but there's a lock on the door."

She made up a reason, for she couldn't say that she came for her memories. After all, this was her privacy, and Lambert didn't need to know it.

Lambert was a little unhappy. He surely knew what Jessica meant. She was questioning him, the vice president, why Oliver was not here, even his office was sealed. What was his purpose?

"I'll take you there." He said.

"So you can open that door?" Jessica said with displease.

She felt sick when she saw another iron door towering outside the door of Oliver's office.

"It's probably my subordinates want to protect the documents in the president's office."

It seemed that Lambert agreed with it, or how would he know about it?

Even if it wasn't his idea, he must have known about it before and didn't stop it. Obviously, he was about to tell all the people in the company that the president wouldn't come back.

"I forgot to congratulate you. You have been promoted to the vice president of the company." Jessica said sarcastically.

Lambert said, "Wait here. I'll get someone to open the door for you."

He made a phone call.

Then he asked the secretary for a cup of tea.

Lambert's secretary was new here and didn't know Jessica.

When the secretary came in, she looked at Jessica several times, for Lambert's office seldom had a female guest.

Lambert went out to see if the door was open when he met Toby.

Toby pulled him aside and asked, "Who's here?"

"Jessica."

"Why did you let her in? Things here can't be moved. What if she takes something away?"
