Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 70

After a while, Oliver got up and carried Jessica to the bed.

Jessica lay on the bed, seeing the man bending down and seriously picking up hair on the sofa. She felt it was funny.

'It's not bad to have a neat freak be around.'

She noticed that she had been losing a lot of hair recently.

When Jessica went to the prenatal examination, she asked the doctor and was told that it was possible to lose her hair when she was pregnant. She should eat more hair-raising food.

The next day.

Jessica went to the tea shop to buy two special packages of tea, which cost her a month's salary. Then she went to visit Hayden and apologized in person.

The last time she knew the address of Hayden's studio, which was a separate courtyard near the art gallery. Jessica didn't have an appointment and came directly. She didn't expect the door of the studio to be locked.

Just when she turned around to leave, she saw Hayden hurrying towards her.

"Mr. Halper, there you are," Jessica shouted.

Perhaps he was getting old and his eyes were not so good. Hearing the shouting, he finally saw that the person standing in front of the studio was Jessica.

"Jessica, why are you here? Come in."

Hayden opened the door. There were work desks of all sizes in the studio. Obviously, there were many students drawing here.

After passing the entrance hall, she walked through a courtyard, which was decorated with rockeries, small bridges, and flowing water, as well as large scatters of flowers and grass. And she seemed to have entered a place isolated from the secular life.

"Mr. Halper, did you just come from home?" Jessica found Hayden walking fast like when she was learning to draw with him. No matter when she saw him, he was always full of energy.

"Jessica, were you okay yesterday?" Hayden asked with concern.

"I went to the police station. The policemen asked me what happened and then let me go home. I'm fine."

Hayden nodded.

He was busy arranging for Alice yesterday. When he saw the police take Jessica away, he found Henry to settle it privately. Then he would be the peacemaker.

However, those big shots would show him some respect usually. At the critical moment, they would not give in at all, let alone his own granddaughter, who had always been like a princess.

Henry refused in a businesslike tone, which made Hayden not know what to do. So, he went to the hospital early in the morning to visit Alice. As long as Alice was not seriously injured, the punishment for Jessica would not be severe.

But he didn't expect the Zamani Family to be kind and let Jessica out so soon.

They arrived at Hayden's studio. There was a 3-meter long painting table in the middle of the room. A large drawing board was leaning against the wall, on which was a painting of meticulous flowers and birds.

Jessica handed over the tea, "Mr. Halper, I'm really sorry about yesterday, because of me the opening ceremony was delayed."

Before she could finish her sentence, Hayden stopped her, "Jessica, I believe you. Don't blame yourself. It's none of your business. Besides, the opening ceremony is just for everyone to join in the fun. It won't affect the exhibition. Don't worry about it."

Hearing his warm words, Jessica revealed an innocent smile, "Thank you for believing me."
