A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

Chapter 218



The HH Group was indeed wealthy. There was such a large piece of jade in the preliminary hall.

The people who came here today were all rich or noble. When they saw this piece of jade, they were all tempted.

You should know that large pieces of jade are priceless.

At that time, the stage host said:

– It took almost ten years to polish this piece of jade. Mr. Chavez said that this piece of jade was the prize for first place in the preliminary round.

The host paused before continuing:

– As everyone must have seen, many uncut quarry stones are arranged around it. Everyone can choose the best one and let the master carve it on the spot. Depending on the quality of the material, the first twenty will be able to advance to the next round.

Hearing the host say this, everyone stared at the jadeite.

Most of them were just there to watch the show. They didn’t expect there to be such an expensive price.

Everyone was tempted. Who hasn’t liked good things?

Groupe HH was really generous. The 50 to 60 people present were eager to try. No one wanted to miss this jadeite.

Any uncut quarry stones present had to be purchased with their own money.

There were a total of 50 to 60 people present. If each of them contributed a little, the president of the HH group could earn a lot of money.

If some people get carried away, they might even buy a few extra uncut quarry stones. At that time, the HH Group would be a hit.

The host said:

– Let the competition begin.

Many people couldn’t wait to choose the stones they liked. They wanted to start early.

As for Lyana, she did not come forward immediately to choose. Instead, she stared at the stones.

These raw materials seemed ordinary, but no one knew what they contained.

She looked at them once. Eventually his gaze landed on an ordinary, unremarkable rough stone. She approached it.

At this time, an impatient voice sounded from the side.

– Shrew, if you don’t have money to play stones, stay in bed and accompany your man. Don’t get in my way.

As she spoke, the woman was about to hit Lyana while flying.

At that moment, Daniel raised his hand to block the woman. He raises his hand slightly, and the woman stumbles and falls to the ground.

Regine Dunn fell to the ground. Her beautiful calf was scratched. Instantly, she frowned in pain and cried:

– You are crazy ? Can’t you see? Are you blind?

– Yes I am.

He said calmly.

– What’s wrong ?

Initially, Lyana had been a little unhappy to see this woman causing trouble. But when she heard Daniel’s words, she couldn’t help but laugh.

Lyana’s smile annoyed Regine so much that her expression changed.

– Shrew, wretch. Why are you here if you have no money.

She had come with her father, Livio Dunn. He had just picked up a rough stone. He walked through the crowd and saw his daughter sitting on the ground, crying.

Livio immediately saw Lyana and Daniel. He says angrily:

– Who hit her? That he has done ? If you don’t apologize, I’ll cut your legs off.

Livio’s angry roar attracted more people.

Initially, everyone had a good impression of Lyana. However, when they saw that she was looking for trouble, they all despised her.

William and Nathan also approached.

At this moment, Regine was lying in Livio’s arms, crying pitifully.

Nathan came forward.

Seeing this, William grabbed him.

He looked at William in confusion.

– Does not cause problems.

Nathan’s expression changed slightly, and he stood reluctantly.

– She can handle it, William said.

Nathan eyed Lyana warily.

At that moment, Daniel crossed his arms over his chest and didn’t even frown. He shrugged his shoulders slightly and said:

– Your daughter threw herself on me by chance. I just rejected it.

– She even pretends to be weak and sits down on the ground. For what ? Should I marry her?

Daniel said with a troubled expression.

Regina was shocked.

When she heard this man slander her, her expression changed drastically. She growled angrily,

– You’re just a thug. How could I throw myself at you? You dream ! You’re just spouting nonsense and slandering my reputation. Are you still a man?

He said nonchalantly:

– You know better than anyone whether I’m a man or not.

When Lyana heard Daniel’s words, she laughed her head off. This bodyguard was so impressive. He even replied.

Livio Dunn’s face turned red with anger when he saw how cheeky Daniel looked. He shouted angrily,

– Alain, cut off his hands and feet! Then cut out his tongue.

Daniel immediately shielded Lyana behind him and looked at Livio Dunn casually.

She looked at Daniel’s back and couldn’t help but smile.

This bodyguard was really dedicated.

Alain was originally checking on Regine’s wound. When he heard Livio calling him, he stood up and rolled up his sleeves, preparing to fight.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Daniel calmly unbuttoned his sleeve and slowly folded it up, revealing his healthy wheat-colored wrist. He slowly looked up at Alain.

His lazy attitude showed that he didn’t take Alain seriously at all.

He took a step forward with a cold expression. His gaze fell on the face of the man in front of him and he frowned slightly. This man seemed familiar to her.

Suddenly, an idea crossed Alain’s mind, and his pupils instantly dilated.

It’s him ?

How can it be him?

He didn’t quit a long time ago?

A trace of fear surged in Alain’s heart. He swallowed and didn’t dare take a step forward.

Seeing that he was still not approaching him, Livio Dunn asked impatiently:

– What are you doing ? Why don’t you hit him?

Alain clenched his fists tightly, his palms sweating profusely.

Even if he had ten times the guts, he wouldn’t dare attack.

The man in front of him was a god in the world of bodyguards.

If he fought him, he risked his life.

No one knew his name, only that there was a Daniel in it.

It was said that he did not leave the mountain easily, and that he did not protect others easily. It was said that the last employer he protected was his childhood sweetheart.

It was said that the son of the president of this group had hit his employer. He said he only slapped him once. Then he broke into that group and crippled that person’s son in front of the president.

Since then, only his legend remains in the world of bodyguards.

What happened ? Why did he come out?

He did that for a small fry like Lyana Dubois.

It is not normal. Could it be that she has a powerful past?

Seeing that Alain didn’t dare to attack, Livio Dunn angrily scolded him.

He rolled up his sleeves and was about to do it himself.

Daniel stood calmly, looking at him like he was a harmless ant.

As he was about to make a move, the host walked over and said with a slight smile:

– Mr. Dunn, I’m really sorry. Fighting is not allowed during the competition. If you really want to make a move, I’m going to have to strip you of your participation. Think twice before acting.

When he heard the host say this, he could only suppress his anger and try his best to control himself.

Daniel’s gaze fell on the host’s face and he asked very politely:

– Can we fight outside the arena?

He spoke the most arrogant words in the calmest tone.

The corners of Lyana’s mouth curled up slightly. She suddenly understood why Vincent had asked Daniel to be his bodyguard. The two were very compatible, and both didn’t want to be deceived.

The others discussed it.
