A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

However, after the wrong teacher received a lesson from Auntie Lyana, the school replaced her with another teacher. Since then, he has never been bullied again.

In addition, her classmates’ attitude towards her also improved.

Aunt Lyana took really good care of him.

– So, is Lucas ready to let Auntie Lyana be your mom?

Vincent asked shyly. He was a little nervous.

When Lucas heard the word “Mom”, his expression changed slightly. He silently squatted against the wall and hugged his knees.

– If Aunt Lyana becomes my mum, what will happen when mum comes back?

Lucas turned to look at Vincent and asked seriously.

Vincent paused. He hadn’t expected him to have such a deep obsession with his biological mother.

– Does that mean my mum no longer has a home?

Lucas’ eyes, like grapes, were fixed on Vincent.

– But…

Lucas frowned again and said in confusion:

– If Aunt Lyana doesn’t become my mom, will she leave soon?”

– I want to live with Auntie Lyana forever, but I also want Mom back. What should I do now, dad?

Lucas looked at Vincent with pity.

Vincent looked at Lucas fondly. Although he is very smart now, he was still a child. He didn’t know how to make choices, and didn’t understand that you couldn’t have everything.

Sometimes you have to give up something to gain something.

Before Vincent could speak, he heard Lucas say:

– Dad, I’ve thought about it. I want both. Let Mom, Aunt Lyana and I be together forever. That way, I’ll have two moms.

Vincent was left speechless.

He felt like Lucas was the second person in the world capable of rendering him speechless.

The first was Lyana.

Naturally, Lucas didn’t understand what Vincent was thinking. He said happily,

– Dad, help me find mom. After that, you can rest. You have nothing to do.

Vincent felt he was a tool.

Suddenly, an idea germinated in Vincent’s mind. Lucas must have inherited his ability to scold people from his mother.

While Lucas was feeling happy, he suddenly remembered something. He looked down and asked in a low voice:

– Dad, can’t you ask a doctor to come and see me in the future? I am not sick.

Vincent remembered how Lucas had crouched alone in a corner when he pushed open the door and entered. He looked weak and hurt, and Vincent’s heart ached.

“To see if I’m sick?”

Lucas looked down, feeling a little sad.

– No, she just wants to confirm something.

– What is this ?

Lucas still looked a little disappointed.

– Of course, it’s to confirm that you are not sick. You are a normal child. Your Aunt Lyana even said you’re very smart and a little genius.

When Lucas heard Vincent’s words, the whole world lit up. His eyes were filled with laughter as he looked at Vincent intently and said proudly:

– Dad, although you are a little stupid, your taste is indeed very good.

Stupid ?

Vincent felt like he was the one hurt.

He was called stupid by his own son.

– Fortunately, you have good taste. That’s why you love someone as good as Aunt Lyana.

Lucas says happily.

Aunt Lyana was the first to believe he was a normal person. She was ready to play with him, take care of him, and stand up for him at school.

It was a bit unfair for Auntie Lyana to be with her idiot father, but he would take good care of Aunty Lyana in the future.

For a moment, Vincent didn’t know if he should be happy or sad. All kinds of emotions accumulated in his heart.

– Can we not tell anyone what we both said today? It’s a secret between the two of us. Vincent smiled.

He didn’t want Lyana to know about his past, nor did he want Lyana to know about Lucas’ biological mother…

In the past, he wouldn’t have needed to worry about any of this. He also didn’t know why he wanted to hide these things.

Vincent’s frown deepened.

Lucas’ thoughts were very simple. He thought Aunt Lyana should be dating her father. Adults had to settle their own affairs. As a child, he naturally couldn’t interfere.

It doesn’t matter that her father failed to woo Aunty Lyana. He just had to woo her when he grew up.

Vincent looked at Lucas’ obedient and intelligent appearance. Her thin lips curled slightly, revealing a slight smile.

So there had always been a misunderstanding between him and Lucas.

Now that the misunderstanding was resolved, Lucas was ready to open his heart to her. Father and son could finally communicate in a friendly way.

In this case, he didn’t need to take out the IOU.

At that moment there was a knock on the door.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

Vincent gets up and carries Lucas on the bed. Only then did he look towards the door. His voice was as cold as ever.

– Come in.

Lucas sat there with his head bowed.

Lyana pushed open the door and turned to bring Lucas’ medicine. She smiled at Lucas and said softly:

– Lucas, it’s time to take your meds.

Lyana was in the first floor living room just now. She thought it was very unfair for Lucas to have invited Doctor Dean to diagnose his illness.

When Lucas saw Doctor Dean’s reaction, he knew Leslie Dean was the doctor.

However, at that time, she was only thinking about having Doctor Dean examine Lucas and did not notice Lucas’ expression.

She remembers the first time she met Lucas. In her eyes, Lucas was just a smart kid.

Sylvia had told him autistic people were dumber. She felt like she was a bit stupid. She should have discovered this problem sooner. Sylvia’s diagnosis at the time was not wrong. Lucas was just a kid who wanted adult attention.

At that point, the more she thought about it, the more she felt she had gone too far. She had invited the doctor without making the difference between the truth and the lie.

In that moment, she seemed no different from the teacher who had indiscriminately punished Lucas in kindergarten.

She didn’t believe what she saw. She chose to believe what she heard.

Lyana had come to apologize to Lucas.

Lucas was a sensitive child. He might be hurt or sad because of it.

She came in with the drugs. Her gaze fell on Vincent’s face, and she saw Vincent looking at her. For some reason, she felt Vincent staring at the wound on her lip.

She licked her lips uncomfortably and said quietly:

“Thomas seems to have something to tell you. Do you wanna go take a look?

– All right.

Vincent remembered the text message Thomas had sent him. He finally had news from Chuan Sanchez.

He glanced at Lucas. At that moment, Lucas was looking at Lyana with bright eyes.

Since he had promised not to tell her, he had to keep his promise.

Vincent walked to the door, his hand on the handle. As he is about to leave, he can’t help but turn to look at Lucas.

At that moment, Lucas was still staring at Lyana without batting an eyelid, without even giving her a look.

Lyana’s gaze continued to rest on Vincent. After Vincent left, she breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, when he was in this room, she could always feel the pressure coming from him.

After Vincent left, Lyana handed the medicine and a cup of water to Lucas and said softly:

– Lucas, you are not yet cured of your illness. You have to take your medicine now. You will recover after taking it.

Lucas nodded and obediently opened his mouth, letting Lyana put the pill in her mouth. He picked up the cup and swallowed the pill obediently.

After Lucas took the medicine, Lyana picked up the cup and put it on the bedside table. She didn’t know how to tell Lucas the truth.

Before Lyana can speak, Lucas says

– Aunt Lyana, my father likes you. Do you like him?

Lyana was slightly stunned. She looked at Lucas in surprise. She hadn’t expected him to say such a thing.
