A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

When Lyana heard Vincent’s words, a sharp pain shot through her heart, choking her.

– Why is he sick? What disease does he have?Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

– He had a cold and a fever recently, but his fever has not gone down.

Lyana frowned. She straightened Vincent and asked:

“Then how did you know that?”

Vincent could see the worry and anger in Lyana’s eyes. He pursed his lips slightly and said:

– Because I am his godfather…

What ? The Godfather ?

Lyana was slightly stunned.

– He calls me dad now.

Lyana was stunned again, unable to come to her senses for a moment.

It was too big a coincidence.

Lyana stood stunned for a moment, her eyes filling with anger. She continued:

“And Lucas’ inhuman father?”

Vincent said,

– … He is abroad.”

“So what do you want to do?”

Lyana looked at Vincent.

Vincent pursed his lips, his eyes filled with determination.

– That’s why I want to bring him here. I want him to stay here so I can take care of him.

Either way, he had to bring Lucas to his side, even if Lyana was unwilling to do so.

Lyana almost suspected that something was wrong with her ears. She thought she had heard wrong. Stunned for a moment, she asked in surprise:

– Really ?

Vincent replied:

– Yes.

In the past, when Julie lived here, he had always worried about her presence. Now that there were no more strangers in the house, he wanted to bring Lucas back.

No strangers?

Thinking about that, Vincent couldn’t help but frown. He was a bit surprised by his own thoughts.

Lyana didn’t notice Vincent’s change in mood. A bright smile appeared on her face and she said happily:

– It’s awesome. I think grandma needs someone to come with her now. If Lucas is here, I think Grandma will be very happy.

When Vincent heard Lyana’s words, he was a little surprised.

He still remembered Lyana saying she didn’t like children.

Before he could speak, he saw Lyana looking at him excitedly.

– So when do we pick up Lucas?

Vincent had a strange feeling. His gaze fell on the medicine box on the floor and he asked, confused,

– Shouldn’t the medicine be applied now?

Lyana immediately shook her head. Fearing that Vincent was thinking too much, she hastened to explain:

– Actually, it’s not that urgent. I’ll help you apply the medicine later.

Vincent was left speechless.

Lyana couldn’t help but insist:

– The children are weak. If this continues, it could cause other illnesses. Let’s get Lucas here so I can heal him.

Vincent narrowed his eyes. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Lyana urging him on again.

– Where is he now ? Let’s go.

At that moment there was a knock on the door. Thomas’ voice came from outside.

– Second young master, I have already brought back young master Lucas.

Lyana was a little surprised. It was too fast.

Just now, Vincent had said he wanted to talk to her. She didn’t expect Lucas to have arrived at the Sanchez family villa yet.

This means that when she was chatting with Grandma, Vincent had already asked Thomas to pick up Lucas. Now he was just informing her.

Although Vincent pretended to discuss the matter with her, he didn’t take her opinion into account.

Logically speaking, she should have been angry. However, she was not unhappy about it. On the contrary, she had a different opinion of Vincent.

So Vincent was kinder and more caring than she had imagined.

Lyana suddenly felt a little curious. She asked :

– If I didn’t agree right now, what were you going to do?

Vincent looked Lyana in the eye, cold eyes. He spelled out every word clearly.

– Then I can only ask you to leave.

Lyana was slightly stunned, but she quickly smiled.

She didn’t seem angry at all. It seemed that Lucas was not an unloved child. At least Lucas held high status in Vincent’s heart. It seemed that Lucas was still very happy.

Lyana’s heart was filled with relief. She slightly raised her eyebrows and her gaze fell on Vincent’s face. She congratulated him generously:

– You are much more reliable than his biological father.
