A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

– Previously, Dr. Sylvia Long said that Lucas’ autism is most likely due to lack of care and attention. Dr. Dean, who came in today, said Lucas’ autism is congenital. I think Doctor Long is right, but I want to wait until she comes here to examine Lucas first.

Lyana secretly hoped Lucas wasn’t autistic, and she thought Sylvia Long might be more specific.

When Vincent heard Lyana’s words, his expression remained unchanged.

Lyana looked at Vincent in confusion. Frowning slightly, she asked curiously:

– Vincent, you’re not at all worried about him?

Vincent’s eyes flickered. He lowered his voice and said softly:

– When he was two years old, the doctor had already determined that he was naturally autistic.

She looked slightly stunned, and her heart ached.

It made sense. Vincent was very concerned about Lucas. He had probably discovered Lucas’ problem a long time ago.

With the abilities of the Sanchez family, they might be able to find a better psychiatrist to treat Lucas.

However, she never expected a child as obedient as Lucas to have autism.

She raises her eyes slightly. As she was about to say something, she noticed Vincent staring at her.

– What’s wrong ?

Lyana looked at Vincent in confusion.

His eyes narrowed slightly and he asked uncertainly:

– Your lips…

Unconsciously, Vincent remembered seeing him with Lyana…

– I accidentally bit him. Pay no attention to me.

Lyana quickly changed the subject. Seeing that Vincent had finally looked away, she breathed a sigh of relief.

– Did you leave the house this morning because of that?

Vincent’s tone was very calm, and his voice was very soft. He was asking her a question, not questioning her.

Lyana looked up at Vincent. At that moment, Vincent’s expression had completely changed. He didn’t look angry at all. There was even a hint of joy in his words.

– Yes.

At this moment, Lyana’s frown deepened. Her voice was a bit low when she said:

– I originally wanted to ask Dr. Long to come and check on Lucas, but she had something to do and had to go on a long trip today. I think I will ask Doctor Long to take care of him in the future.

When Lyana said that, her chest felt heavy. Her only hope was that Lucas would be okay.

Suddenly she remembered the first time she had seen Lucas. They were near the funeral home.

At that time, she had never expected this beautiful and adorable young girl to be autistic.

Something was wrong.

She seemed to have realized something.

Lyana’s eyes lit up.

During the time she spent with Lucas, she hadn’t discovered anything wrong with him.

She learned from those around Lucas that he was sick.

For example, Lucas, Thomas, and Vincent’s teacher.

In their eyes, Lucas was not a normal child.

However, that night she sensed that Lucas was a smart kid. In addition, he was particularly polite and wary of strangers.

How could such a smart child be born autistic?

Lyana’s fox eyes lit up. She looked up at Vincent and asked:

– Do you think Lucas isn’t autistic?

Vincent’s heavy expression already represented his thoughts.

Lyana hastens to reply:

– When I first met him, I had the impression that he was intelligent and had a strong sense of security. At that time he called me Auntie and asked for my help.

Vincent was slightly stunned and his eyes darkened. He suspected that the Little one Lyana was talking about was really Lucas.

– Did you help him?

Lyana thought of Lucas at that moment and couldn’t help but laugh. Her eyes were filled with gentleness as she patiently explained:

– That night when I went to the funeral home, I saw him walking around. I thought he was lost. At that time, he was still dressed as a young girl.

Vincent’s heart sank. In the past, Lucas had said he only wore girls’ clothes because he thought he liked girls.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Lyana didn’t notice Vincent’s emotions. She continued:

– I wanted to send him home, but he was very concerned about his safety and didn’t want me to send him home. He borrowed money from me for a meal, then the two of us added each other on WeChat. He even gave me the money back.
