Oliver sneered, "You know, I just attack the problem not the people."
"Back then, if you hadn't broken off your engagement with Alice, I would be your brother-in-law now."
Hearing what he said, Jessica knew that Oliver and Alice had an engagement. No wonder Alice was much more intimate than others when she saw Oliver. Maybe she, like Tina, was regretting it.
Alice had targeted her several times on purpose. Now she was just a secretary in the eyes of Alice. If she knew that she was the one who married Oliver, Jessica couldn't figure out what she would do to her.
Oliver didn't have much patience to say anything to Aaron, "Mr. Zamani, can I make a bid now?"
"Mr. Williams, we just had a glass of wine. Why are you in such a hurry? If you have something to do, you can leave first. Just let Jessica stay with me."
Oliver turned to look at Jessica who shook her head violently. She was afraid that Oliver would really throw her into that bastard. After all, they had shared the same bed, so he shouldn't ignore her.
Unexpectedly, Oliver said slightly next, "OK."
Jessica's eyes were wide open, looking at the scene. She was a secretary. How could she have a say in the business of billions? Obviously, Aaron was deliberately making things difficult.
"Thank you. About the land, I'll give you an answer as soon as possible. I have a clear mind." After Aaron finished speaking, he glanced at Helen.
Helen stood up elegantly and sat next to Oliver, "Mr. Williams, if you don't mind, I'll take good care of you."
"I do mind."
Helen didn't expect Oliver not to give her face, her face changed from pale to red. Then she went back to where she was.
Aaron laughed, "Doesn't Mr. Williams like this kind of enchanting woman? Do you only love a pure woman like Jessica?"
Jessica couldn't listen any longer and stood up, "Mr. Williams, it's getting late. It's time to get off work. I'll go first."
She walked straight to the door. When she passed Aaron, he grabbed her wrist, "I didn't expect you to have such a temper. I just like such a wild kitten. Interesting."
"Mr. Zamini, please show some respect and let go of my hand." Jessica tried to break free, but the man was strong, grabbing her wrist tightly.
"Let her go," Oliver said coldly. His eyes turned cold instantly. The eyes he set on Aaron like with a sharp sword which was going to pierce through his arm.
"If I don't..."
Before Aaron could finish his sentence, Oliver stood up and kicked his chest. It hurt so much that he immediately withdrew his arm and covered his chest with both hands. He became ferocious, "Oliver, you hit me for such a woman?"
Obviously, Aaron didn't expect Oliver to kick him directly.
Jessica was also shocked. She didn't know why Oliver was so reckless. Without his help, she could walk out of the room, safe. Now, if it affected the land deal, it was partly her fault.
