A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

Hearing William’s words, Lyana realized that her attitude from earlier was a bit abnormal.

This must be the so-called confusion of worry.

His earlier enthusiastic attitude seemed misleading to others.

However, looking at William’s cold demeanor, Lyana still felt a little uneasy.

She had always thought that she would never lose her temper again.

The light in Lyana’s eyes gradually diminished, but she soon regained her usual composure. With a calm expression, she said:

– You were hurt so badly because you saved me. I didn’t want anything to happen to you because of me.

After Lyana’s explanation, the atmosphere in the room relaxed considerably.

William looked at Lyana calmly and smiled.

– Luckily, you got there in time and saved me from Alexander Walker, so you don’t have to take it to heart.

When Lyana heard William’s words, she nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. However, she didn’t want William to draw a line between them. She said :

– That’s true, but you were still hurt because of me.

William said again calmly:

– Even if he’s an ordinary person, I’ll do my best to save him, not to mention that you’re Vincent’s wife. Besides, I already promised him to protect you. You don’t have to take this to heart.

Hearing William’s words, Lyana knew he didn’t want Vincent to misunderstand their relationship.

– THANKS.

William narrowed his eyes slightly. In a daze, he recalled how Lyana had helped him out of Ghost City.

For some reason, he found the word “thank you” rather heavy.

He had a strange feeling in his heart, but in the end he didn’t say anything.

Lyana looked away indifferently, not wanting to talk anymore.

Vincent looked at Thomas and said calmly:

– Bring me a cup of hot water.

Thomas replied:

– Yes.

Vincent very naturally adjusted the bed. As he stared at the angle of the bed, Thomas came in with a cup of water. He handed the cup to William and said:

– Drink some water first.

William did not reject Vincent’s suggestion. He took two sips and handed the cup back to Vincent.

At that moment, Farah stood at the door and knocked.

Thomas said:

– Please come in.

Seeing that William had woken up, Farah breathed a sigh of relief. She took the electronic thermometer from the bed and said:

– I’m going to take your temperature now.

Vincent nodded.

Farah held the electronic thermometer and pressed it to William’s forehead. After hearing the electronic sound, she retracted the thermometer.

– Your temperature is normal now. You are out of danger. You should rest well afterwards. Try to eat lightly.

William said indifferently,

– THANKS.

Farah nodded, her gaze falling on Lyana’s face. Although she knew Lyana was a doctor, she couldn’t help but remind her, as a nurse, that she had toAll text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

– Doctor Dubois, don’t let Mr. Royer eat anything this evening. He can only drink hot water. We’ll give him porridge tomorrow morning.

Lyana nodded and said gratefully:

– THANKS.

Farah was slightly taken aback.

She had a hard time imagining that a sweet, polite person like Lyana was actually a mistress who ruined other people’s relationships.

However, Farah reacted quickly and said calmly:

– You are welcome. That’s what I should do.

Lyana smiled softly.

After Farah finished talking, she didn’t leave immediately. Instead, she stood there with her notebook, thinking about how to help Claire hide the fact that Lyana had given William a blood transfusion.

– Nurse Farah, can we talk more?

Lyana’s voice interrupted Farah’s thoughts.

Farah smiled and nodded.

– All right.

When Farah and Lyana came out of the room, Lyana didn’t forget to close the door.

Lyana looked around. The hallway was very quiet. There was no one else.

Lyana breathed a sigh of relief. It was only then that his gaze landed on Farah’s face.

Farah looked to be in her thirties. She exuded a gentle aura and gave a sense of security and reliability.

Farah was not from MY, but in order for her to be the head nurse of this hospital, she had to have something special. She must be very professional.

Lyana looked around and said softly to Farah:

– Miss Farah, can you promise me something?

Farah’s gaze fell on Lyana’s face.

– Miss Dubois, please speak. If I can do it, I’ll do my best.

Although Farah hated being a mistress, she still admired Lyana’s medical skills.

No doctor in the world was younger and more competent than Lyana.

Lyana didn’t want to beat around the bush. She went straight to the point.

– Miss Farah, I hope you won’t tell William about my blood transfusion.

Farah was slightly taken aback by Lyana’s words.

Lyana’s expression was serious, as if she had no intention of lying.

Why was there something strange in all this?

Logically, Lyana was looking forward to being with William. Now that she had done such a good thing, why didn’t she want to let William know?

Seeing that Farah was silent, Lyana felt uneasy. She asked :

– Miss Farah, can you help me keep this secret?

Farah’s frown deepened. She looked at Lyana in confusion and asked curiously:

– For what ?

– I just don’t want him to think he owes me a favor.

At that moment, Farah felt like she was in a pickle.

After a long time, Farah calmed down and said:

– All right.

– THANKS.

Lyana smiled sincerely at Farah.

Farah suppressed the surprise in her heart and shook her head gently. She said :

– We also have a rule here that prevents us from revealing the identity of the blood donor. I’m just doing my job.

Hearing Farah’s words, Lyana instantly felt relieved.

Farah was the head nurse. As long as Farah promised her, she would definitely do it. This means that Farah would also remind the other nurses who took part in the operation.

Then this case would be deleted.

Although Farah is filled with doubts, she still says without changing her expression:

– Miss Dubois, I am going to leave to do my work. Contact me if you need anything.

– All right.

Lyana smiled and agreed.

Farah smiled and turned to leave, her eyes filled with confusion.

It’s strange. Why was Lyana not ready to seize such a good opportunity?

Why did Lyana hide the fact that she gave blood?

Could it be that Claire lied?

Or rather, Lyana didn’t donate blood and was afraid that William would find out.

The more Farah thought about it, the more confused she became. Whatever the situation, she had to find out.

Farah walked towards the nurses’ station with a serious expression.

The nurses helping in the operating room just now were all resting on the table because they were too tired.

Farah approached Katie and shook her.

Katie opened her eyes in a daze and saw Farah approaching. She asked nervously:

– Sister Farah, does Mr. Royer …

– No, go out with me first.

Farah interrupted Katie without hesitation.

– Oh.

Katie yawned as she followed Farah outside, trying to stay awake.

Farah led Katie to an empty room. Seeing how tired Katie was, she asked worriedly:

– Are you particularly tired?

Katie shook her head slightly.

– I only slept a little. I’m better now.

– You can go home and rest tomorrow morning.

– Thank you, Sister Farah.

Farah pursed her lips and asked:

– Where is the blood bag that Lyana gave?

Katie’s expression changed when she heard Farah’s question. She straightened up instantly and stammered:

– She’s in the operating room…
