Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica)

Chapter 16

When she arrived, she only wore a windbreaker with a striped shirt and jeans inside. The temperature in the mountains was a few degrees lower than outside, and the night was colder, which made her shiver.

Jessica was cold and hungry. Looking out at the blinking stars, she prayed that someone could appear and help her.

Oliver wanted her to go home early tonight. She could only hope that he would come and find her. It was easy for him.

She had no idea when it was, and she only saw the moon gradually drifting away and hiding in the clouds.

The storage room became darker, and Jessica was more afraid.

She used her last strength to knock on the door and cry.

Lambert had been sketching near Fox Mountain for the past few days. Huang Gongwang of the Yuan dynasty was his favorite painter. Especially, "His Dwelling in the Fox Mountain" had always been known as "king in the painting."

Many of the later painters followed this master's footsteps and came here to create their own works. Lambert was one of them.

The Williams Group's hotel happened to be built here, so he became the first guest.

After painting at night, he came out and walked in the yard, just to hear the crying.

Lambert followed the sound and came to the backyard. As the sobbing became less and less, he couldn't tell where it came from.

He knocked on a lot of doors but did not receive an answer. Then He repeatedly knocked on the door of the storage room. "Is there anyone inside?"

There was still no response. He was a little suspicious that if he had misheard.

Lambert was about to turn around and leave when he heard a sound like something falling to the ground, coming from the storage room.

He twisted the doorknob, but it seemed to be locked down. When he was sure that there was someone inside, he couldn't find better solutions instantly and directly kicked the door open.

The light was off in the room. He turned on the flashlight in his phone and found a woman lying on the ground with a pale face. It was Jessica.

He shouted, "Jessica!"

Jessica said in a weak voice, "Lambert."

Lambert picked up Jessica and walked to his room.

Jessica's thin and cold body trembled a little, and her lips turned livid with cold.

"Lie down and have a rest."

After saying that, Lambert rolled up his sleeves and walked into the kitchen. He poured the mineral water into the kettle and placed it on the induction cooker.

The water soon boiled.
