Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica)

Chapter 319



Chapter 319

Only then did Tina tell Marina everything that happened at the company.

When Marina heard that there was no money in the company account, she almost fainted.

The last time Tina came to see her, she said that the company had been developing very well recently

and asked her to recuperate in the hospital at ease. The company had already received tens of millions

of dollars project funds.

However, after only a few days, the money was gone.

"Where did the money go?" Marina roared.

"I... I don't know either." Tina stammered.

Then Marina saw Flora who stood behind Tina.

She said coldly, "Flora, you've been in the company. You can tell me what happened."

"Mrs. White, I don't know what happened either. The money in the company's account disappeared

overnight. Miss White and I went to Mr. White, but he didn't tell us."

Marina said, "Is he in the company now?"

"He's at home. He locked himself in his bedroom and didn't come out. He asked me to take charge of

the company's business. But it's almost time to pay salary and we didn't have money. When the salary

can't be paid, the workers would rebel. What should we do?"

Marina did not expect that Jason would lie at home doing nothing instead of trying to earn money.

She soon got up and got dressed. She had to go home immediately to find out what was going on.

Seeing Marina had already sat up, Tina stepped forward to help.

After helping Marina dress up, the three of them left the hospital directly.

As soon as Marina reached the parking lot, she said, "Tina, you can't drive this time."

The saying was right. A burnt child dreads the fire.

"Mom, don't worry. Flora is a good driver."

After getting into the car, Marina fastened the safety belt.

After everything was done, Flora drove the car away from the hospital.

At White family's door, Marina said to Flora, "You go to the company first. We need people to handle

things at this time."

Marina didn't want Flora to know too much about the private affairs of White family, so she sent her

away.

Flora naturally knew what Marina meant and smiled. "I'm leaving now. If you need a car, call me again."

She watched Flora drive away.

Marina then said to Tina, "The money in the company is gone. Is it related to Flora? Why did a lot of

strange things happen as soon as she came to the White Group?"

"Mom, Flora has no right in the company. What kind of trouble can she make? I think Jason must have

some trouble outside. Otherwise, the money wouldn't have disappeared."

Tina had never taken Flora seriously. She only regarded her as an unimportant assistant.

Marina had been recuperating in the hospital for so long that her legs were almost healed.

She was still very careful to avoid any more accidents.

Originally, she was very anxious to see Jason right away and ask him what happened.

But she still held the stairs and slowly walked up to the bedroom door.

Tina had already stepped forward to open the door and knocked.

Jason didn't answer at all.

He knew that Tina was back, so he simply pretended not to hear her.

When Tina wanted to twist the handles again, she found that Jason had locked the door inside.

Seeing this, Marina said directly to Tina, "Kick the door open."

Her legs were hurt, or she would have kicked the door open herself.

Tina was wearing 10cm high heels, she didn't dare to kick the door hard, fearing that she would break

her ankle.

She took a chair and slammed it on the doorknob.

The doorknob fell to the ground. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

The crisp sound startled Jason.

Did Tina brought the debt collectors home? Or else she wouldn't have been so barbaric.

Jason sat up and saw that Marina stood beside Tina.

"You... Why did you get out of the hospital? You should recuperate in the hospital."

Jason was surprised by Marina's sudden appearance because Marina had said that she would leave

him alone.

He hoped that Tina could settle everything in the company and not to let Marina know.

Now, it seemed that she finally knew it.

Marina walked straight to Jason's bed. Before he could get out of bed, she slapped Jason on the left

cheek.

"Tell me, where did you get the money? I always think something's wrong with you recently. Did you

had a mistress outside and transfer all the money away?"

Marina really couldn't figure out where Jason would spend this large sum of money, especially in such

a short time.

She never expected that Jason would gamble.

In Marina's opinion, Jason was a very stingy person.

In the past, when they heard about who gambled and lost everything, Jason would discuss with her

that the people who gambled were mentally ill.

Marina was greatly comforted when Jason said so.

She finally found a man who would never gamble for the rest of her life. She was really scared by Luk.

Luk used to hang around the mahjong table all the time. In just one night, he can lose all the money

she earned in the nightclub in a month, or even more.

Luck was even willing to let her serve other men for money and and turned a blind eye to her affairs

with Jason.

So, she was scared.

After knowing that the money in the company was gone, she thought that Jason was either cheated by

a woman or a partner.

"No." Jason said guiltily.

How could a shrewd man like him be deceived by a woman?

Even a beautiful and capable woman like Flora couldn't take much money from him.

Even the house Flora lived in was rented, not bought.

However, Jason could not tell Marina the truth.

Jason knew that Marina could allow him to play mahjong at ordinary times at small expenses.

But if he dared to step into a professional gambling place, she would cut off his hands.

"Then I would like to hear what explanation you can give me." Marina shouted.

Jason quickly came up with an idea in his mind. "I met someone who took me to invest in a project that

could make a lot of money, so I transferred the money for the time being."

Seeing that he looked hesitated when he talked, she knew he was hiding something.

She continued to ask, "What project is it?"

"It's a big ore project, so it costs a lot of money."

"When did you meet such a noble person? Why I don't know it?"
