Chapter 72
Jessica was suspicious and went straight to the office.
It was Alice who was sitting in Oliver''s office.
Probably to gain Oliver''s sympathy, she came over in a wheelchair. When she was lying in the hospital,
she called Oliver to weep out her grief in vain. So no one could stop her froming to the Williams
Group to look for Oliver.
Alice''s forehead was still wrapped in gauze and it was clear she was seriously injured.
"Oliver, I heard you took Jessica away from the police station?" Alice looked at Oliver with tears in her
eyes.
Oliver said in a t tone, "Yes."
"How can you let her go after she had done that to me? Oliver, it''s all her fault for my injury. How could
you be so careless about me for a secretary? You didn''t treat me like this before."
Alice pretended to cry. Oliver sitting opposite her remained unmoved, expressionless.
"I''ll ask the driver to take you back to the hospital."
"I''m not going back. My friends willugh at me when they see me like this. It''s all because of that
b*tch," Alice said in a vicious tone at the mention of Jessica.
Then, she felt she lost herposure and wept again, "Oliver, what kind of secretary do you want? I''ll
rmend one to you. Please fire that secretary."
Alice didn''t know his secretaries'' name. She didn''t even bother to ask. She only knew her surname and
she was a secretary who had just joined the Williams Group.
Oliver, who was sitting on the sofa at this time, got up and went back to the desk. He busied himself
with work, ignoring Alice.
Seeing this, Alice pushed the wheelchair inexperiencedly to him, "Oliver, as long as you promise to
drive that woman away, the Zamani Family will not mistreat you. Don''t you want thend in the west of
the city? I can persuade my brother to sell it to you."
Oliver raised his eyes slightly and nced at Alice. He did not expect that unremarkable woman to
have such value. He did not know what she had done to make Alice lose her mind and say those
ridiculous words.

He said emotionlessly, "The personnel arrangement in our Williams Group will not change because of
an outsider''s words."
Alice didn''t expect Oliver to reject such a condition. "Oliver, do you think I''m an outsider? I don''t think
that way of you. You''re not an outsider to me. When you were in a car ident, grandpa and the others
were the ones who wanted to cancel the marriage. That''s not what I meant. I didn''t expect you to get
married so soon after you returned home. When you got married, I was devastated. I couldn''t hear any
voices talking about you at home. Even my friends knew that, so no one dared to mention you in front
of me. Do you know my feelings? You know..."
"Enough." Oliver stopped her, "I''ve always treated you as my sister. Even if the marriage is not
canceled, I wouldn''t marry you. That would do harm to you."
Alice was secretly d to hear Oliver''s words. He refused to marry her for her happiness. It seemed
that Oliver still cared about her.
"What about your secretary?"
"I''ll deal with her," Oliver said with a wicked smile.
Alice decided to punish Jessica. She was moved by Oliver who cared more about their childhood
friendship than thend of the Zamani Family.
Oliver used to tolerate some of Alice''s rude requests probably because he didn''t want to ruin the
memories of their childhood. There weren''t many happy days in his memory. The death of his mother,
his disability, and the psychological and physical trauma had affected him till now. He barely had happy
times until that woman walked into his life. At a certain moment, he actually felt happy.
Alice wanted to use thend in the west of the city as a condition for Oliver to fire Jessica. But she
didn''t know that her n would never seed.
No matter how important thend was, it was not as important as Oliver''s happiness for a moment. He
had plenty of money in exchange for a priceless price. Money was just a number to him. It would not
bring any earth-shaking changes to his life, but Jessica was different. She could surprise him from time
to time.
Oliver leaned back in his chair, deep in his thoughts.
Alice stood aside and looked at Oliver, thinking that he was thinking about what to do. As long as he
fired Jessica, she would not spare her. She would let the woman experience all her sufferings.
"Oliver, I''m waiting for your good news." Alice interrupted Oliver''s thoughts.
"You can go back."
Alice came out in the wheelchair. When she saw the light on in the secretary''s office next to her, she
looked over curiously and saw Jessica sitting in front of theputer working. She didn''t seem to
notice her outside.
Alice felt that this woman was scheming. She came to work on weekends to seduce Oliver. Seeing that
Oliver was so protective of her, she was more sure that there was something between them.
By the time Jessica notice her, Alice was almost at her desk.
"You b*tch, do you think you can seduce a man just because you''re pretty? Don''t think that since Oliver
saved you, you''ll be fine."
Jessica put down the document in her hand and sneered. "It seems that there''s something wrong with
your brain. How can you say such incoherent words?"
"If it weren''t for you, how could I have fallen?"
"Alice, stop being ridiculous. You fell on your own. What does it have to do with me?"
"You should be to me."
"You are like a lunatic."
"You b*tch, you''re offending me by staying by Oliver''s side to seduce him."
"I remember that my president is married. Well, how can you covet a married man? Aren''t you the
same b*tch?"
"You know what, he will fire you soon."
"The point is that he won''t fire me."
"Who do you think you are? Do you think a smart man like Oliver would fall in love with you?"
