Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 164

"That's different." Jessica said, "Please go back."

"I'll give you time to think about it."

After Lambert finished speaking, he left.

Jessica saw grandma walking this way and went up to help her.

Grandma saw Lambert. "Jessica, why is he here? Where's Oliver?"

"Grandma, Oliver has nothing to do with me anymore. Please don't ask."

Her grandma sometimes saw that Jessica was alone and sad, so she mentioned Oliver a few times. She felt really sorry for them.

"Your grandma is getting old and confused. Don't blame me."

Jessica smiled and said, "Let's hurry up and try the dessert I made for you. See if you like them."

She had nothing to do at home, so she bought a cookbook and began to learn how to make snacks. She began to prepare for the food after the child was born.

Lambert did not come to see her again.

Jessica thought that besides recuperating, there was still a lot of work for him to do. He should be too busy to think about anything else.

Therefore, no one came to disturb her.

Jessica gradually got used to such a peaceful life and cherished the days with her grandma.

Suddenly, one day, Jessica received a call from Williams Hospital.

The doctor told her that all the physical examination reports that her grandma had done before she left the hospital had come out. There were several data that were not very good, so she had to go back to the hospital for further examination.

Jessica thought that her grandma's illness had been cured, but unexpectedly, bad news came again.

She immediately took a taxi to Williams Hospital to ask her grandma's attending doctor about her condition.

The doctor told her that she still needed to take her grandma to the hospital and check her blood data to see if there were any changes to determine the next treatment plan.

Jessica had no choice but to bring her grandma to the hospital for a checkup.

Jessica was anxiously waiting for her grandma's examination results after she came home. The doctor informed her that she had to reschedule grandma's hospitalization.

She felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar. She didn't know how to speak to her grandmother. She was afraid that if her grandma knew the truth, she would not be able to take it. The old people couldn't stand such torment.

Jessica came up with an excuse that didn't seem very reasonable. In the end, she had to say that it was because the environment at home was not good enough for the patient to recuperate.

Her grandma didn't ask much. Everything was arranged by Jessica.

After everything was settled, Jessica began to worry about her grandma's medical expenses. There was not much money left last time.

The cost in Williams Hospital was quite big, and it had to be here to treat her grandma's illness.

In her current situation, there was no way for her to make money, and the huge expenses after the child were born. All these things combined, Jessica was sleepless.

After her grandmother was hospitalized, she had been in the hospital with her grandma.

Unexpectedly, Lambert went to the hospital with a fruit basket to visit them.

When he arrived, there were several doctors behind him, who said they were experts hired for her grandma to help with the follow-up.

Jessica stood up, quickly greeted the doctors, and thanked Lambert.

After the doctors left, Lambert talked to her grandma for a while.

Jessica said, "Grandma, Mr. Williams is very busy. I'll show him out first."
