Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 207

"Can you tell me why you have to get married in such a hurry?"

Jeff didn't give up. He wanted to know why Lambert did this, and he gave Lambert a chance to explain.

"Grandpa, I've told you before that I want Jessica to be my wife and give the child a warm home." He said.

"I haven't lived with my parents since I was a child. I don't want my child to be the same as me. I don't want him to yearn for the family after he grows up."

Lambert's pitiful look indeed touched Jeff.

However, Jeff couldn't trust Lambert now.

His informant said that Oliver's matter was related to Lambert. Although there was no conclusive evidence yet, it was a matter of time before the evidence came out.

Jeff hoped it was a misunderstanding. He was both anticipant and fearful when he was waiting for the evidence.

He was afraid that the last thing he wanted would happen.

He wanted to give Lambert a chance to make up for it. If it were a momentary lapse, Jeff would give Lambert a way out.

After all, he watched Lambert grow up, and Lambert used to be his beloved grandson.

Just as Jeff was thinking, his phone rang.

He looked at Lambert and said, "Get up."

Lambert knew that his grandfather asked him to go away. It seemed that this phone call was important to Jeff.

Jeff's hand trembled when he saw the phone number. It was the informant's number.

He swiped his phone and answered the call.

A deep voice came from the phone. "Sir, we have the evidence. Lambert is indeed behind this, and he's not the only one."

When Jeff heard the word "Evidence," his head seemed to explode, and he felt dizzy.

He tried to get himself up but found that he had no strength at all.

Not far away, Lambert saw something was wrong with Jeff and walked over. "Grandpa, are you okay? I don't think you look well. I'd better call the doctor."

Jeff wanted to pretend not to know anything, but when Jeff saw Lambert's innocent look, he was even angrier.

He used all his strength and slapped Lambert in the face.

Lambert was confused, not knowing why Jeff suddenly slapped him.

He guessed it had something to do with the phone call Jeff had just received.

Jeff had never hit him before. For a moment, he couldn't figure out if it was because of the wedding or Jeff knew what he did behind him.

"Grandpa, what is going on?" Lambert's face turned red, and he asked in an annoyed tone.

"You monster." Jeff cursed in a trembling voice.

Lambert sneered. "Monster? It turns out that I am a monster in your heart. A lot of people have scolded me for being a monster since I grew up. I've heard a lot. I don't care."

"Lambert, I've raised you for so many years. Am I not good enough to you?" Jeff looked sad and angry.
