My Substitute Wife Is a Bigwig (Lily Brooks and Loid Laurier)

Chapter 207 

Loid laughed out loud with a tender look in his eyes. "One cent in interest. How does that sound?"

"Deal," Lily readily agreed.

It felt good to be spending her fiancé's money.

Meanwhile, Shaun felt envious of the couple's loving interaction.

…

After dinner, Lily texted Venom on her way back to the Laurier residence: "Your whereabouts are exposed. Someone will look for you at Alchos. Get Hawk to help you with the disguise."

Soon, she received a reply: "Fuck! Who are they? I thought you edited my coordinates."

Stealing a glance at Loid, she found him enjoying some shut-eye. She looked away and fell into a short silence. Then, she wrote: "They're the people who were after you today."

Speechless, Venom thought, "Ugh, they won't stop haunting me!"

Venom: "Cool. I have trust in Hawk's disguise techniques. I'll be waiting for them at Alchos. Let's see if they'll recognize me. Thanks."

Lily did not reply this time. She tucked her phone into her pocket and had some shut-eye. She hadn't asked Loid about his grudge with Venom. After all, it wasn't a conflict she could resolve in person.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

Many of her identities had been exposed lately. She would only invite trouble if people found out she was K from Alchos.

After dinner at the Laurier residence, Arthur consumed the medicine that Nell had prepared for him, followed by an acupuncture session. He looked more vigorous after that. 

Melanie and Stefan left home three hours later than Loid and Lily, and they just made it to the Laner residence not long ago. 

When Loy got home, she saw Arthur chatting merrily with Melanie and Stefan, who had dropped by for a visit. Arthur clearly seemed fond of Stefan and his family, judging from the care smile on his face. 

Melanie took Lily’s hand. “You must be tired after a day of traveling in the car.” 

“I’m okay.” Lily was sleepy but tried her best to be agreeable around Melanie. 

Arthur did not know Lily that well, but he had heard about Lily from Melanie. After meeting the young lady in person, he took a liking to her. 

He motioned at Lily to come over. “Here, young lady, Let’s have a chat.” 

Nodding, Lily took a seat beside him. 

“I heard you cured Loid’s illness. Is that true? Arthur forced a smile to make himself appear friendly and warm. Having spent years in business, he carried himself with an intimidating air, which he feared might be offputting for Lily. 

Staring at her feet, she replied softly, “Yes.” 

“Great Great.” Nodding furiously, Arthur praised her, “You’re so successful at such a young age! Melanie was right. Loid doesn’t deserve you!” 

Laid was rendered wordless at Arthur’s backhanded compliment. 

Tilting her head, Lily glanced at him with a smile. “He’s fine, I guess I don’t have high standards.”
