Chapter 50
Just as Jessica entered the office, Darcy called her over.
"Jessica, there's a party tonight and you're supposed to be there with Mr. Williams."
Jessica only heard this one sentence and did not hear much of what Darcy said later. She was just a
small employee within the Williams Group, helping Oliver, and had never shown her face in public with
him.
If someone else found out about their relationship in the future, it would not be good for anyone. She
had already thought about it, and she decided to leave as soon as possible, not to cause any more
trouble.
"Darcy, I don't have much experience. I'm afraid that if I get him in trouble, I will be killed." Jessica
wanted Darcy to find someone else, and all she could think of was this stupid excuse.
"I've already spoken to Mr. Williams. That's settled."
Jessica returned to her seat. After thinking about it, She decided to go to talk to Oliver.
Jessica entered the President's Office and asked directly, "Are you going to a business party tonight?"
"What? Do I have to report my whereabouts to you?" Oliver asked faintly.
"Mr. Williams, this is the workplace. I'm talking to you about work."
Only then did Oliver raise his eyelids and look at Jessica. "Go ahead."
"It's not appropriate for me to go with you."
"And then?"
"Mr. Williams, please change the person."
Oliver held the pen in his hand and twirled it around with interest.
"Then who would be more suitable?"
Jessica thought of Jasmine's admiration for Oliver in the morning, which was beyond words. "How
about Jasmine? Mr. Williams, who do you want? I can ask them for you."
Oliver sneered. "What? Do you feel bad coming with me?"
"No. It's just that it's good for both of us."
"Why?"
"If I go out with you, there are too many people surrounding us. After we separate in the future, if
someone asks, it doesn't seem to be good for you"
"Do you think I married you because I care what others think?" There was a clear alienation in Oliver's
indifferent voice.
Jessica thought to herself, 'Isn't it? It was clear that when we were having dinner at the Williams
Family's old residence, the Williams Family was afraid that because of him, the reputation of the
Williams Family would be affected. '
Oliver continued, "It's the same for me whether I get married or not. It just so happens that someone
wants to arrange a woman for me. I just accepted."
Jessica's face was red with anger. She almost forgot why she came into the office.
"Sit down." Oliver motioned for Jessica to sit on the sofa next to him.
As soon as Jessica sat on the sofa, Oliver got up and walked over. The man was tall and straight,
standing in front of Jessica. He had just bent down and approached her as if a feeling of being pressed
came over her. "What do you want?" She unconsciously moved back. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
After Jessica finished speaking, she saw Oliver pick up a long hair on her shoulder.
She wore her hair in a bun in the company. First, it would make her look professional, and second, she
knew that Oliver was a neat freak. As a secretary, she would often come and go to his office. If she
didn't pay attention and lose her hair, that would make him unhappy. So she naturally carefully avoided
these to happen.
She didn't expect that the man could even catch a single strand of hair on her black shirt. That was
really creepy.
Oliver seemed to see through her mind with his deep eyes. "What do you think I want to do?"
Jessica blushed and knew she was wrong. She lowered her eyes in embarrassment and did not dare
to look at the man again.
"This is the guest information you are going to see at night. You have to familiarize yourself with it
quickly and report it to me. In addition, change your widow outfit and buy an evening dress."
She was only dressed in black, but he actually said that she was wearing a widow's dress.
'So stupid. If I'm a widow, he should be dead. Is he cursing himself?'
Oliver had arranged for this, and she could no longer persuade him to let someone else attend the
evening's event.
It was almost time to get off work. Jessica told Oliver her plan and went to the nearby shopping mall to
buy clothes in advance.
She wanted to take the lift straight upstairs to buy a dress randomly in a slightly brighter color but
stopped on the first floor. She stood in front of a shop and gazed at the dark green dress inside. She
really adored it.
Jessica entered the store and looked for the price tag. Before she touched the clothes, the shop
assistant stopped her.
"Miss, if you don't buy it, don't touch it."
Jessica glanced at the shop assistant standing beside the cashier, and then at her cheap clothes. She
didn't expect the shop assistant could be able to tell at a glance that she was not the target customer.
She didn't want to ask for a snub, so she left the store directly. As soon as she reached the door, she
met Alice who was about to come in.
"Oh, Jessica! What a coincidence to meet you here."
"Hello, Miss Zamani."
"Are you leaving now? I see you still get anything."
"I'll just take a look. And I have to go."
"Well, Miss White, could you please do me a favor? I want to buy an evening dress for tonight's party.
Could you help me choose one?"
In Oliver's stack of documents, Jessica saw that Aaron, the representative of the Zamani, would attend
tonight's event. She never thought that Alice would go too.
She didn't like Alice and they didn't get along well. But the Williams Group had always worked closely
with the Zamani Group, especially as people from both sides were meeting this evening as well. Since
Alice had asked for her help, she would take the time to help Alice out, just by helping to choose the
dress.
At this time, the shop assistant saw Alice and greeted her warmly. "Miss Zamani, welcome. Come and
see some of the high-end dresses. Would you like to try them on?"
The shop assistant pointed to the dark green dress hanging in the window.
"It looks good. Jessica, what do you think?"
The shop assistant said immediately, "This lady has been looking at this dress for a long time. She likes
it very much."
"I will try." Alice stood up and said to Jessica on the sofa, "Jessica, you can also try it."
"I don't need it. Miss Zamani, you'd better choose your own clothes quickly."
Jessica knew that she couldn't afford any clothes here, so she rejected them.
After a while, the shop assistant came over. "Miss, Miss Zamani asked you to go to the fitting room and
let you take a look."
Jessica put her phone in her butt pocket and hesitated a little before entering. "I think I've to use the
lady room first. Could you let her wait for a minute?"
Jessica came out from the bathroom soon.
Alice was asking the shop assistant, "Is she here?"
Jessica knocked on the door. "Miss Zamani, please come out so that I can give you some advice."
"Jessica, come in first."
