Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica)

Chapter 318

Flora told Tina that she couldn't reach Jason on the phone and asked her to go home and take a look.

Tina told Flora to drive immediately, and they went to the Whites' villa together.

Nanny Zamani was so happy to see Tina back that she felt as if she had met a savior.

"Miss, you're finally here. Mr. White has been locking himself in the room and had forbidden me to tell

you. I was worried about what would happen."

"Has he been eating normally?" Tina asked.

Tina wouldn't even refer to Jason as her father.

"Yes, he has. But he won't come out of his room. It's been a few days. Please go upstairs and check on

him!"

Tina asked Flora to wait on the first floor and then went upstairs to Jason's bedroom.

At first, she was furious, regretting that she had listened to Jason's words and didn't take all the money

back but a small portion.

However, regretting wouldn't do her any good now. The most important thing is to find out what had

happened to Jason and where he had put the money.

She just wanted to do everything she could to get the money back.

At this moment, Tina was so regretful that she didn't listen to Marina.

Tina knocked gently on Jason's door. There was no answer.

She turned the doorknob and opened the door.

As soon as she opened the door, a thick smell of smoke came rushing towards her.

She didn't know how many packs of cigarettes Jason had smoked, but the room was still filled with

smoke.

Jason was still lying on the bed with his back to the door.

Tina walked to the bed. "Get up, and let's go downstairs. I have something to ask you."

She didn't speak to Jason nicely and didn't address him as a father. She was so furious that trying to

suppress the anger had taken all of her strength. She was doing her best not to throw away his

comforter and made him get out of the bed.

"Go back." Jason's voice was weak as if he had been seriously injured.

"What had happened to you?"

Jason didn't get up, so Tina stood there and began to ask Jason condescendingly.

"I told you to go out." Jason was upset and just wanted to have some time to himself.

"What right do you have to tell me to go out? There's not a cent on the company account now! Tell me

where did the money go! It was MY money too!"

Tina stopped pretending. Although for now, only some of the money on the account was hers, Jason

had promised that the whole company would be hers in the future.

So, she wanted to think that the money was all hers too.

"I'll let you have the company now. You are happy now?" Jason said weakly.

The only thing he wanted to do was to be left alone. He hadn't been able to figure out how to explain

the situation to the others.

At this time, Marina probably didn't know what had happened. Otherwise, she would have been here,

interrogating him by now.

She wouldn't let him stay at home so peacefully.

"You want to pass it to me now that something went wrong? Why you didn't do it earlier?" Tina

complained, "It's almost payday. What do you want to do?"

Jason seriously wanted to block his ears.

He hated hearing about money now.

Every time someone had mentioned the word "money," he felt like someone was stabbing his heart

with a sword.

He just realized that he had wasted all the money he finally owned.

But it was too late. Jason felt like his heart was bleeding all the time, but it wouldn't help anyway. He

wanted to avoid the consequences and stress by locking himself up at home and refusing to see

anyone.

"Tina, I beg you. Now the company is all yours. It's your call now."

"You chose to leave it to me now that something had happened! Where were you earlier?!"

Tina's voice grew louder and harsher.

Jason couldn't stand Tina's accuse.

"Please just go for now. I will go back when I'm ready."

Ever since Jason came back, he didn't plan to go back to the company. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Because he had no idea what to do next.

In the past, Marina was the one who made all the decisions if something had happened to the

company.

Marina was still in the hospital and could not help him a bit.

Jason had no idea what he should do now.

It might be a good idea to let Tina know about the situation. Once Tina knew it, Marina would know it in

no time.

He can let them deal with the problem by then.

Jason just wanted to hide in the room.

He was so afraid of meeting people now and even more afraid that someone would call him.

There was no news coming from the calls.

They all wanted him to pay back the money he had owed.

So, no matter how Tina yelled at him, Jason chose to lay there motionless.

Tina had no choice but to go downstairs.

Seeing that only Tina had come down alone, Flora quickly stood up and asked, "Wasn't Mr. White at

home?"

The truth was that she had heard Tina's impatient voice coming from upstairs, but she wanted to hear it

from Tina.

"He's home, and he did it all." Tina said fiercely, "What should we do now, Flora?"

"Emmm..." Flora knew that this was not something she could decide. She didn't want to make the

matter hers.

"Miss White, maybe you or Mrs. White should take the lead since Mr. White refused to do so."

Only then did Tina remember that she should go to Marina.

After all, Marina was more experienced.

Only then did she realize that experience was the best during crises. However, this couldn't apply to

Jason.

Flora drove Tina to the hospital.

Tina was thinking about how she should tell Marina about the situation along the way.

Marina had warned her that she should get the money back from Jason as soon as possible.

However, she ignored her advice because she was only thinking about how to make the company hers.

Nobody had expected that the position of president of the White Group would be so unwanted so soon.

Tina couldn't imagine how mad Marina would be later.

Tina knew that Marina was the one person who understood Jason the best since they had been

married for so many years. She also knew that Jason wouldn't do anything without a backup plan.

Now that Tina only wished that Marina could know what Jason's backup plan was.

She needed this backup plan as soon as possible to save the company from bankruptcy.

Tina bought a beautiful bouquet in the floral shop next to the hospital. She hoped that it would make

Marina happier and spare her some scolding.

Flora and Tina arrived at Marina's room together.

Marina's guard was up as soon as she saw Tina standing by the door with flowers because Tina never

visited her with flowers.

"Tina, what are you doing here?" Marina stared at her with confusion.

"Mom, I didn't come to visit because I've been busy for the past few days. I got some flowers to make

your room cozier." Tina smiled.

But the smile was a little fake.

It wasn't because she was busy that she didn't come. It was because she didn't want to hear Marina's

scolding.

"Tell me what had happened," Marina said coldly.

Marina sure was her mom.
