Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica)

Chapter 54

"New secretary."

Aaron took the initiative to reach out to shake Jessica's hand. As soon as he reached out, his other arm

was hugged by a coquettishly dressed woman, "Mr. Zamani, here you are. I've been looking for you all

night."

This seductive woman, whom Jessica had seen in magazines, was the newly popular movie star,

Helen Garcia.

Then Helen threw herself straight into Aaron's arms in front of them. Aaron could only hold Helen

Garcia awkwardly.

Fortunately, Helen helped her out. Jessica didn't want to shake hands with this man. She couldn't figure

out what he would do in public.

Oliver was drinking, expressionless, waiting for the man and woman in front of him to end their intimate

behaviors. Oliver didn't take it seriously, but Jessica felt very uncomfortable and did not know where to

look.

After a while, Aaron probably remembered that there were people waiting for him here, so he pushed

Helen away from him.

"Mr. Williams, don't blame me. When we were talking just now, you were called away by the mayor and

I also waited for you. We're even now. Let's go upstairs and find a room to talk."

Oliver put down his glass and walked straight up the stairs.

Aaron, who was following behind, put one hand in his pocket and one arm around Helen. Jessica

followed behind and also went upstairs to the reception room.

The room was spacious. In the middle of the room were three large sofas with a tea table inside and

chairs beside each sofa. This room looked like it was for a meeting.

Oliver directly went to the sofa nearest the window.

Aaron sat nearest to the door, and Helen sat directly on his lap. Jessica was stunned to see this. She

quietly chose a chair behind Oliver to sit down.

Oliver wanted to light a cigarette, but when he remembered that Jessica was pregnant, he stopped.

"Mr. Zamani, what are you going to do with the land in the west of the city?"

Aaron acted intimately with Helen on the sofa as if no one else was around. He didn't forget to answer

Oliver, "Are you interested in my land? I do have a plan to sell it. It depends on the offer."

Jessica knew that the Williams Group wanted to build a high-end residential community in the west of

the city. The Williams Group had two lands in the west of the city, separated by a piece of land

belonging to the Zamani Group. Thus, Oliver planned to buy the land in the middle. He knew that the

land belonged to the Zamani Group.

The Zamani Family and the Williams Family were close friends. Henry of the Zamani Family and Jeff of

the Williams Family had always been good partners in the business world. They wanted to let Oliver

and Alice get married, but later Oliver had a car accident, and their previous engagement was naturally

broken off. The Zamani Family had been feeling guilty about the Williams Family. If Jeff took up the

matter himself, the problem would be solved soon.

However, since Oliver was now the president of Williams Group, he shouldn't ask Jeff to worry about

the business. In addition, the power of the Zamani Group had also been transferred to the hands of the

younger generation of the Zamani Family. These things should be handled by them.

Aaron naturally knew what Oliver was up to today. Aaron did not say he would sell the land to the

Williams Group, nor did he directly refuse to sell it.

Oliver said directly, "The Williams Group is interested in that piece of land. Mr. Zamani, make an offer."

When Aaron heard this, he pushed Helen aside and took out the cigarette. Helen Garcia lit the

cigarette for him. Originally, Oliver wanted to stop him but he couldn't find a proper excuse, so he just

let it go.

Aaron had a few puffs at the cigar and thought for a few seconds. "If Mr. Williams wants that piece of

land, it's easy since the Williams Group is rich, so you must be able to afford it, but..."

When Oliver heard what Aaron said, he knew he had other demands. The business was like a

battlefield.

"Just say what you want, Mr. Zamani."

Aaron grinned, bared his white teeth, "I think your secretary is good. Lend her to me for a few days.

What do you think, Mr. Williams?"

When Jessica heard this, she sat up straight at once, no longer leaning back in her chair. She did not

expect Aaron to be so persistent. He couldn't win her heart with money, and now he used her as a

bargaining chip. She didn't think she was worth that much.

Her heart was pounding as she waited for Oliver's answer. She was afraid that Oliver would really give

her to Aaron. But no matter what Oliver would say, she still had the freedom to refuse. She was only his

employee, not his slave.

Oliver heard Aaron's request and laughed out loud.

Jessica rarely saw Oliver laugh. The sound of his laughter made her feel a little creepy.

Oliver said coldly, "Mr. Zamani, you are really not picky. How can you be interested in my incompetent

secretary? You think highly of our Williams Group."

Jessica cursed in her heart, 'Am I that bad? I've just been offered a job at a high price.'

Aaron picked up the wine bottle on the table and poured a glass of wine for Oliver. "Mr. Williams, you're

not angry, are you? I'm just kidding. Cheers." Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Oliver raised his glass. "Cheers."

"I want to tell Mr. Williams in advance. If Miss White wants to change jobs in the future and work for our

Zamani Group, you shouldn't make things difficult for Miss White, Mr. Williams."

Jessica scolded Aaron in her heart for deliberately sowing dissension between her and Oliver. It was as

if she was looking for another job and Aaron was pleading for her in front of Oliver.

She couldn't sit still and be used as a pawn. She choked and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zamani. I have no

intention of changing my job. I will always stay in the Williams Group. I will never leave."

As soon as Jessica said this, the other three people in the room looked at her.

She was a little agitated just now, so she spoke loudly and quickly.

"I didn't expect the employees of the Williams Group to be so loyal. The Zamani Group is really inferior

to you in this respect. Mr. Williams, you have always been haughty and don't even care about your

uncle. I have long heard that you are especially good to your subordinates. I didn't believe it, but now I

do. Mr. Williams, it seems that you not only manage the group well but also manage your employees

well."

The fact that Oliver had driven Toby to Southeast Asia was indeed discussed by the upper class for a

long time, which made many people see his decisiveness. This young president of the Williams Group,

who had just taken office, was definitely a person that could not be underestimated by his competitors.

It was just that Aaron's words seemed to mock Oliver for being cruel and ungrateful.
