A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

Vincent gets up slightly and heads for the office. He glanced at the documents on the table and slowly replaced them in the drawer.

– Oh.

Lyana was a little surprised. She hadn’t expected Vincent to be so calm.

Vincent wasn’t at all curious about what Grandmother had told him?

She patted the snake’s head and continued:

– I didn’t expect Old Master Royer and Old Master Sanchez to be comrades in arms. This kind of life-and-death friendship is truly enviable. No wonder the relationship between the two families is getting better and better.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

– Yes, Vincent answered indifferently.

He looks up slightly at Lyana. Seeing that she looked interested, he said:

– If you have something to ask, ask. Don’t beat around the bush.

– I heard you met the eldest daughter of the Royer family when you were young?

Vincent narrowed his phoenix eyes and sat down lazily in the desk chair. He casually picked up a fountain pen and twirled it. The trace of a smile appears in his eyes.

– I was engaged to her in the past.

Lyana was slightly stunned. She hadn’t expected Vincent to tell her about it.

The pen in Vincent’s hand has stopped spinning. He put the pen on the table and walked over to the couch. He approached Lyana and looked down at her.

– You…

Vincent leaned slightly, his face approached Lyana’s. He raised his eyebrows slightly, his voice sexy and hoarse.

– Mrs. Sanchez, are you jealous?

Lyana’s ears turned red uncontrollably.

What nonsense was he talking about? She wasn’t talking about that at all, okay?

– If I treat her like my younger sister, will Mrs. Sanchez be comfortable?

Vincent asked seriously. His voice was low and magnetic.

Lyana only wanted to ask if Vincent had met the eldest daughter of the Royer family, but with Vincent’s response, she was too embarrassed to continue asking.

If she kept asking, Vincent might not give her the answer. On the contrary, he might think she was jealous.

She felt she was not on the same channel as Vincent. Some things could only get worse.

– Why don’t we go together to the Royer family the day after tomorrow?

– Hmm.

Lyana didn’t expect Vincent to accept so quickly. She wanted to get up, but Vincent was a little too close.

For some reason, she remembered what Lucas told her.

Lucas had said that Vincent had admitted to loving him.

She knew very well that Vincent had said that because he wanted Lucas to accept her as his stepmother.

However, her heart was still racing.

Lyana quickly pushed those messy thoughts to the back of her mind. She thought of Thomas, who was standing in the doorway. She looked up at Vincent and said:

– Don’t let Thomas go out to do anything in the future. Let him stay by your side. With him by your side, he can take care of you.

– Aren’t you home yet?” Vincent asked, clearly seeing the concern in Lyana’s eyes.

When she heard Vincent’s words, she was stunned. For a moment, she didn’t know how to answer.

Before she could speak, she heard Vincent say:

– And you’ll always be by my side, won’t you?

Lyana’s heart was beating faster and faster, as if it was about to escape from her chest. She didn’t understand what was wrong with Vincent today. Why did he say such a thing?

Vincent looks at Lyana’s stunned expression and frowns slightly. His gaze was cold and he said:

– Not only are you my wife, but you are also my private doctor.

So she had misunderstood.

Lyana breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Vincent straighten his back and move his buttocks to the side, she got up and looked at Vincent explaining to him:

– I go out sometimes too. Let Thomas stay by your side.

– Hmm.

Lyana continues:

– It’s getting late. I’m going to tell Lucas a fairy tale. I have to go out tonight. Don’t forget to ask Thomas to accompany you.

Vincent’s eyes darkened as he answered casually.

He didn’t ask Lyana where she was going. Instead, he sat on the couch and watched Lyana leave the office.

His eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze becoming more and more dazed.

Lyana had just left the office when Thomas entered.
