A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

The girl’s body was soft and supple.

Lyana’s reaction was very similar to that girl’s when she panicked!

Vincent had investigated Lyana in the past, and he also learned that Lyana had been locked up in a mental hospital. Therefore, he thought this girl couldn’t be Lyana.

Vincent was quite sure that Lyana was not that girl, because she had also been the victim of a frame-up.

Lyana was so smart. How could she have fallen into someone else’s trap?

She had also been drugged before. Also, after being drugged, she could still control her body to hit that junk.

On top of that, she had also smartly avoided danger during the auction.

In conclusion, Vincent felt that Lyana was definitely not that girl.

Thinking about this, he felt a sense of loss.

He looked at the sleeping Lyana and slowly closed his eyes.

… .

The next morning.

When Lyana woke up, she saw Vincent sitting by the bed, leafing through a magazine.

He seemed to be in a good mood. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

It was true. It was indeed a matter of joy to be able to continue the family line in the future.

However, thinking about this, Lyana felt a little guilty.

Lyana sat down. As she was about to speak, there was a knock on the door.

– Miss Dubois, are you awake?

William’s voice came from outside.

Lyana unconsciously looked at Vincent. Seeing him shake his head, she understood instantly.

It seems Vincent didn’t want William to know he was here either. She turned to look at the door and said:

– I just woke up. Go down first. I’ll come when I’ve finished packing.

– Understood.

Lyana quickly got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash up. Then she put on light makeup, put on her clothes and left the bathroom.

When she came out of the bathroom, Vincent was still reading a magazine. She asked :

– Should we eat together at noon, or should I bring food?

Vincent looked up from the magazine and his gaze landed on Lyana’s face.

– I’m going out in the afternoon. Just bring me food at noon.

– OK.

Lyana nodded and turned to head for the door.

– Wait.

She turned to look at Vincent in confusion.

– What’s wrong ?

Vincent’s gaze fell on Lyana’s beautiful face. He pursed his lips slightly and lowered his voice.

– Don’t forget to stay away from Mr. Chavez.

Lyana answered and turned to walk out.

Even if Vincent hadn’t called her back, she would have stayed away from Mr. Chavez. After all, Karen Boyd’s death last night was still fresh in her mind. She didn’t want to die without knowing why.

Lyana went down the stairs. From a distance, she could hear people talking about Karen Boyd.

– The forensic team has already produced the results. They say Karen drank too much and accidentally fell into the lake which caused her accidental death.

– What a pity. She is only twenty years old. It’s the best moment of his life.

– Is not it ? It’s just too pitiful. She has a 16-year-old brother who has leukeLyana and is still waiting for her to earn money to treat him.

– Boss Stone is also a coward. He flew out last night and even told the others he didn’t know Karen Boyd. His values are truly awful.

– Speaking of which, Mr. Chavez is still nice. He said he had already sent a plane to pick up Karen’s little brother, saying he wanted to help cure his illness and then raise him by his side.

– Mr. Chavez is really a good person. Even though such a big thing happened on his property, he didn’t shirk his responsibilities. On the contrary, he is serious and responsible. Where in the world can you find such a good person.

… .

Hearing their words, Lyana lowered her eyes slightly, her heart filled with disdain.

She was already dead. How could she be lucky?

Only the living can enjoy life.

Now it looked like Mr. Chavez was just too good to show off. Even though he had done many ruthless things, outsiders thought he was a gentleman. To them, he was so nice that he couldn’t bear to step on an ant.

– Miss Dubois, how was your rest last night?

Suddenly, a deep, soft voice came from behind.

Lyana was slightly taken aback. She turned around and saw the elegant smile on Mr. Chavez’s face, which kept her from feeling any disgust.

It is precisely for this reason that Lyana felt that Mr. Chavez was very dangerous.

When he had spoken just now, she had thought it was Vincent. His voice was very similar to Vincent’s, but if you listened carefully, you could still tell the difference.

Mr. Chavez’s voice was a bit hoarse, while Vincent’s was clear as wine.

Besides, Vincent didn’t want to call her Miss Dubois.

Seeing Lyana’s dazed expression, Mr. Chavez took a step back and walked away from her.

– I’m sorry. I scared you?

Although he spoke gracefully, Lyana didn’t dare let her guard down.

She shook her head and said:

– No.

– Lyana.

At this time, a cold voice sounded from the side.

Lyana nodded and saw William walking towards her.

She had a strange feeling in her heart, and a warm feeling went through her. Usually, William wouldn’t have called her that.

She really liked it when William called her that.

William approached Lyana with a sweet smile on his face.

– I’ve been looking for you for a while. So there you are. You didn’t cause Mr. Chavez any trouble, did you?

As he spoke, William placed himself between Lyana and Mr. Chavez.

When Mr. Chavez heard William’s words, he said with a sweet smile:

– No. Besides, it is an honor for me to greet the beautiful Miss Dubois.

William looked at Lyana gently, his voice filled with affection.

– You must be hungry now. I’ve already ordered breakfast for you.

Lyana nodded slowly.

William raised his arm slightly. Lyana understood instantly and took her arm.

– Alright, let’s eat now.

With that, William was about to lead Lyana to the dining room when he remembered that Mr. Chavez was also there. He turned to look at Mr. Chavez and asked with a smile:

– Mr. Chavez, are we going to have breakfast together?Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

– Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Roger. I already ate.

William nodded and left with Lyana.

Lyana was fully aware that Mr. Chavez’s gaze was fixed on her.

Being stared at made her a little uncomfortable. It wasn’t until William led her around a corner that the discomfort gradually subsided.

At this time, William also stopped. His kindness and affectionate expression instantly disappeared.

Lyana didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. She knew that William had only done this to help her.

William looked at Lyana and said stiffly:

– Forgive me for having offended you just now.

If Old Mrs. Sanchez and Vincent hadn’t reminded him to take care of Lyana, he wouldn’t have taken care of her.

Lyana sincerely said,

– THANKS.

– In the future, do your best to stay by my side and not walk around.

Lyana nodded slightly.

Although she wasn’t afraid of Mr. Chavez, he was looking at her strangely and she couldn’t put her finger on it.

The fewer problems, the better.

It was only then that William said:

– But it’s about to start. I can’t take care of you all the time. Vincent has even arranged a bodyguard for you. I’ll take you to see him later.

Hearing William’s words, Lyana’s heart warmed. She hadn’t expected Vincent to find her a bodyguard. She really didn’t expect him to be such a warm man.

Lyana smiled and replied:

– All right.

When Lyana smiled, her cunning fox eyes curved into crescents. She looked adorable, and the charm that exuded from her eyes made you want to make a mistake.

William was slightly taken aback. When Lyana smiled, she actually looked a lot like Alexia. His expression instantly turned cold and he said:

– In the future, there is no need to wear makeup on such occasions. Don’t smile at anyone.
