Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 237

Jessica found that ever since her grandmother told her not to socialize with Ian, she was off-color.

That was why she called grandma's nurse over to figure out the reason.

Sure enough, something happened.

Ian spent most of his time with Jessica in the hospital and driving Oliver's rolls-Royce phantom through the streets of Birmingham.

He came with a professional camera and wanted to take photos of Birmingham's new features and show them to his father when he went back.

One day, he had just come back from the tour when he received a call from his father.

"Master, what can I do for you at this time?" Ian called him as others did.

"Come back to Europe immediately. You're not allowed to go back to Birmingham alone! How many times have I told you not to go back? You still went secretly behind my back."

"I came here to see what you look like and help you find your roots. Why are you scolding me?"

"Come back tomorrow."

Ian was about to say something else when the phone had already hung up.

He knew his father well. In the past, he never had any objection wherever he went. Birmingham, however, seemed to be a taboo.

His father had never mentioned anything about Birmingham.

The reason why Ian knew that his father was from Birmingham was that he secretly rummaged through his safe and found some documents from it before he knew his father's hometown.

However, from his father's tone on the phone just now, he realized he must go back now.

The next morning, Ian went to the hospital to say goodbye to Jessica.

Jessica asked the nurse to buy some Birmingham specialties for Ian.

She showed some reluctance to Ian's sudden departure.

Her grandma was relieved to hear that Ian had left Birmingham.

She was glad that they wouldn't meet each other in the future.

She didn't want them to be involved in the grudges of the past life between the elder generation.

Since they couldn't be friends, there was no need to get close from the beginning, lest their relationship became weird if everything was clear.

...

Sally went back to Lambola City a while ago and had just returned to Birmingham.

When she heard that Jessica was in the hospital, she came to see her with Martin.

"Jessica, it's been a while. I miss you so much," said Sally.

Not knowing what to do in the room, Martin chatted with Jessica's doctor in the living room about her current condition.

"Sally, thank you for coming to see me." Jessica said, "Looks like you and Martin are on the right track."

"No, I brought him here to see if he can be helpful," Sally said.

"In the hospital, everything is available at any time. If anything goes wrong, I'll give birth to the child immediately. If it weren't for the fact that I was afraid it would affect her normal development, I really wanted to give birth to her right now."

"Just listen to the doctor."

Sally also received Lambert's wedding invitation at that time, but she refused with the excuse of going to see her parents.

Because she knew that this was not something Jessica was willing to do.

Of course, Sally took advantage of this time to go home once.

She just didn't expect Lambert to become someone she didn't know.
