Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica)

Chapter 435

When Tina woke up the next day, she stammered and screamed at the nurse.

The nurse didn't know what she was saying, but she guessed that she wanted to see the person

closest to her now.

So the nurse called Marina up.

Marina's heart skipped a beat when she heard what the nurse said.

She immediately asked Luk to go with her, thinking about the last time when she asked Jason to go up

and apologize to Tina, but in the end, her daughter's wound was torn and she almost passed away.

But Luk had to come, as it might be the last time he could see his daughter.

So Luk came with Marina, who was in the wheelchair, to Tina's ward.

Seeing Marina, the nurse went out.

She thought they would have a private talk.

Tina was lying on the bed, thin as a log. She was staring at the ceiling, her eyes dull and wide open.

At first, Marina asked Luk to wait outside the ward. She would decide whether to let Luk come in

judging from Tina's reaction. After all, Luk had hurt her daughter too much.

After Marina went in, she said softly, "Tina, I come to see you."

Tina's eyes flickered and she tried to speak.

But her throat was burning.

She wanted to see Marina early in the morning because she knew that her life might end today.

But she had to tell Marina what she knew about Jane.

Also, she wanted Marina to know that she was Jason's biological daughter.

Tina wanted to ask Jason if he regretted killing her daughter.

She had been scolded for being a bastard since she was a child. The children in neighborhood said

she didn't have a father or she was the child of the other woman.

Since she was a child, she had not fully felt father's love, because at that time, Jason had only sneaked Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

over to see her, not daring to let outsiders know his identity.

Tina wanted to tell them that she had a father, though her father was not at home now.

But Marina had taught her not to talk about this outside, or she and Marina would be arrested by the

police.

After all, Marina was tearing another family apart, so she could not reveal her identity.

Tina was young and afraid at that time, so she didn't dare to say anything.

But when Tina and Marina were received by Jason to the White Residence, she could say that she had

a father.

Only then did Tina feel uplifted.

She even bossed Jessica around and bullied her.

Because Jessica didn't have a mother, and she had parents.

Tina was jealous that Jessica was prettier than her, and that she had been loved by so many people

and had so many nice clothes since she was a child.

She wanted to own Jessica's room and clothes.

She thought herself to be a little princess in this family.

This was how Tina grew up.

Over the past few days, she had recalled every bit of her childhood.

She recalled this because she heard Jane talk about her childhood.

So Tina knew for sure that Jane was also Jessica.

However, although she had won Jessica before, Tina now lost everything.

Tina thought she had taken everything from Jessica. When she was a child, she had taken her home,

her father, and her clothes.

Later, when she grew up, she took away her fiancé, her husband, Oliver, and her son, Roy.

But in the end, she lost.

She was at the verge of death as she was tortured by her father with a knife.

Tina collapsed.

Luk had acted like as a successful man before, and Marina had instigated her to call Luk father.

However, Tina got Jason off the hook with money, no matter how she felt about Jason at the beginning.

She wouldn't have helped him if she didn't care about her father.

But then, Jason kidnapped her.

Tina cried to Jason, asking him to let her go.

But Jason showed no mercy.

Was God punishing them by watching them kill each other?

Tina just wanted to see Jason's reaction when he found that he was her biological father.

Or she would die with grievance.

So, when she woke up, she wanted the nurse to call Marina.

She wanted to tell Marina everything she knew.

Tina grabbed Marina's hand, trying to scribble on Marina's palm, though she was weak.

Just as Tina finished writing Jessica's name, Marina knew that Tina was going to talk about Jessica.

Marina wondered why Tina would mention Jessica, who had been dead for many years, at this time.

Tina was too tired to move.

She endured the pain in her throat and said with a hoarse voice, "She's Jane."

Marina could understand, though her voice was muddy.

Marina was shocked, and her face paled.

How was that possible?

Marina recalled everything that happened since Jane came back.

No wonder she had a familiar feeling for Jane. She was Jessica, indeed.

Why was she still alive?

She hired someone to kill Jessica with ten million dollars.

But what happened?

Why did she become Jane, a powerful woman?

She was puzzled.

When Tina was done speaking, she felt tired and was panting, as she was too weak.

She had one more thing to say that mattered to their family.

She shook her head.

Marina didn't understand why.

Later, Tina almost raised her head. Marina knew that it was difficult for her to do so.

There must be something more important.

Only then did Marina hold Tina's body, seeing if there was anything beneath Tina's head.

She saw an envelope under Tina's pillow.

Then she took it out.

Marina opened it and saw a paternity test, which proved that Jason was Tina's biological father.

She was collapsed in a wheelchair in fright.
