A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

When they arrived at the salon, Lyana took a box out of her bag and handed it to Matriarch Sanchez. Smiling, she said,

– Grandmother, she is the Goddess of the Moon. That’s for you.

Matriarch Sanchez looked at Lyana’s glowing face, her heart filled with gratitude. She took Lyana’s box but didn’t open it immediately. Instead, she put it on the coffee table.

Matriarch Sanchez grabbed Lyana’s hand and said sincerely:

– Lyana, thank you very much for that.

Hearing this, Lyana quickly shook her head. She pursed her lips and said

– Grandmother, although everyone says that the Moon Goddess can sense whether loved ones are still alive in this world, and whether they will be happy after reincarnation, it is only a legend. I hope Grandma won’t be too hopeful.

When Matriarch Sanchez heard Lyana’s words, she nodded. A trace of melancholy appeared in her eyes, and she sighed helplessly. Only then did she say seriously

“How can I not understand what you’re saying?” I just want a souvenir.

At that moment, Matriarch Sanchez smiled.

– Now that I have it, no matter the outcome, I’m going to let go of my obsession.

That smile bore a trace of pallor and loneliness.

Vincent entered. When he saw this, he frowned.

His gaze fell on the box on the coffee table. His eyes were off, and he couldn’t come to his senses for a long time.

He didn’t know if he should tell the truth to Grandma and her brother.

However, if Grandma had any hope in this matter and if he was wrong, Grandma would suffer the pain of losing a loved one for the second time.

Thinking of this, Vincent remained silent.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Matriarch Sanchez glanced at the time and asked with a smile,

– It’s probably lunch time. Do you both want to eat? Or do you want to rest first?

Lyana turned to look at Vincent and saw he was frowning. Feeling the change in her expression, she suddenly remembered something.

Previously, Thomas had told her about Vincent’s past. However, she was very curious about the relationship between Vincent and his older brother.

Lyana gently shakes her head and says with a smile:

– Grandmother, we have already eaten before returning. Why don’t Vincent and I rest first?

Matriarch Sanchez smiles and nods.

Lyana took the box containing the Moon Goddess from the coffee table and handed it to Matriarch Sanchez. With a serious expression, she said:

– Grandma, just pour a drop of blood on it.

Matriarch Sanchez’s hand was shaking involuntarily as she held the box.

Then she pretended to be calm and nodded, clutching the box in her hand. His gaze fell on Lyana’s face and she said:

– Very well, I understand. Vincent and you should go to bed early.

– Yes.

Lyana nodded. Her gaze swept over the box in Matriarch Sanchez’s hand. There was a trace of emotion in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

She didn’t stay long in the living room. Instead, she went up to the second floor with Vincent, leaving the rest of the time to Matriarch Sanchez.

In fact, when she got the Moon Goddess, she was also tempted.

She also wanted to see the child she had never seen in this world after birth.

Thinking about this, Lyana’s eyes grew heavy.

She swallowed. Even though she knew very well that the Moon Goddess was just a gem and couldn’t be that magical, she couldn’t help but desire her.

She wondered if her dead child had been reincarnated. She wondered what her next life would be like.

Would he have parents who would love him? Would he have a loving home in the future?

Lyana gently closed her eyes, suppressing all her emotions.

Even though she hated what happened five years ago and hated the father of that child, she really loved that child and loved him.

She had carried it painfully for ten months.

Whenever she thought of him, she remembered the movements of the fetus caused by the mischievousness of the child during her pregnancy. She often took her pulse and felt that of the child in her belly. Every time this happened, his heart warmed.

Sometimes she even thought that after this child was born, she would give him all her love and let him live a happy life.

However, this was all just in his imagination. This child had just been born when…

As Lyana was thinking, she came to the bedroom door.

She reached out and pushed open the door. The familiar scent assaulted her face, causing her lonely heart to momentarily calm down.

Vincent stood behind Lyana. He could sense that Lyana was a bit depressed. His gaze darkened.

He had a nagging feeling that Lyana could hide a lot in her heart. These things were secrets he couldn’t penetrate.

She might never let him into her secret.

Vincent followed Lyana inside and closed the door behind them. His gaze fell on Lyana’s face and he asked:

– Do you want to take a shower first?

Lyana did not immediately respond to Vincent. Instead, she walked over to the cupboard and pulled out the medicine box. She turned to look at Vincent and said:

– I’ll apply the medicine to you first.

Surprise shone in Vincent’s eyes. So she still remembered her injury.

Vincent did not reject Lyana’s good intentions. He raised his hand and tugged at his tie. Then his fingers landed on the first button, preparing to unbutton it.

Seeing Vincent’s actions, Lyana immediately looked away.

Although it wasn’t the first time she had seen Vincent undress, each time she felt her mouth go dry and her eyes burn.

When Vincent undressed, the passion that emanated from his bones was truly irresistible.

Pursing her lips, Lyana walked behind Vincent, wanting to help him apply the medicine.

When she brushed past Vincent, he grabbed her wrist.

Her fingers exerted a little force, and her knuckles turned white.

Lyana felt the force of Vincent’s grip and panicked. Her eyelids twitched and she became inexplicably nervous.

Vincent’s hand temperature was getting higher and higher. She had a bad feeling. For some reason, she remembered Chuan Sanchez, who appeared on a stormy night.

Lyana looked up at Vincent and gulped. Perplexed, she asked:

– Vincent, what’s wrong? You do not feel well ?

Vincent’s eyes seemed to be covered in a layer of mist, which made it difficult to read his emotions.

He slowly withdrew his hand and said softly:

– I have something to discuss with you.

Lyana was slightly stunned. She was a little surprised by Vincent’s attitude. It was the first time Vincent had told her he wanted to discuss something.

This subject must be very important. That’s why he had to discuss it with her.

Lyana looked up at Vincent and nodded.

– So tell me.

– Do you still remember Lucas?

When Lyana heard Lucas’ name, she immediately put the medicine box on the floor. She looked at Vincent with concern and asked anxiously:

– What’s wrong with Lucas?

“He’s sick now!”
