A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

Lyana’s heart raced. She looked at Vincent without blinking. Thinking about the kiss they had just exchanged in the bathtub, she couldn’t help but blush.

If she continued to stay here, she might not be able to sleep tonight because of her nervousness.

– I… Oh.

Before Lyana could finish speaking, the man leaned over slightly and hugged her. He headed for the bed.

– Put me down quickly.

She said with a red face. She wanted to push Vincent away, but she was afraid of hurting him.

As soon as she had finished speaking, she was placed on the bed. Immediately afterwards, Vincent also lay down, imprisoning her in his arms.

This position was too ambiguous.

Lyana tried to push Vincent away, but Vincent squeezed her even harder. The smell of shower gel came through his nose.

What had just happened in the bathroom crossed his mind.

Lyana’s body stiffened. She dared not move. Her mind races as she considers how to leave this room.

If it really didn’t work, should she kick Vincent out of bed or throw him over her shoulder so he lay obediently on the bed?

As she was about to move, she heard Vincent’s long, steady breathing, as if preparing for sleep.

But she couldn’t sleep.

If it was Vicki now, she could be really lascivious.

Lyana took a deep breath and remained still. She didn’t dare look up at Vincent for fear of waking him up.

The places where their bodies touched grew hotter and hotter, and Lyana’s face grew redder and redder.

After hesitating for a long moment, she carefully tried to pull Vincent’s hand away. Even if she didn’t leave this place, she couldn’t be so close to Vincent.

She had just moved when she heard Vincent say:

– There’s something I wanted to tell you ahead of time.

His voice was as low as ever, and his words carried a negotiating tone.

Hearing Vincent talk about serious things, Lyana’s disordered thoughts instantly vanished. Perplexed, she asked:

– What’s wrong?

– We will pay our respects to the eldest daughter of the Royer family tomorrow. I think there’s something you need to know.

Just then, Vincent pursed his lips slightly and looked down at the woman in his arms.

The tip of his nose was filled with the scent of the woman’s hair.

Vincent couldn’t help but sniffle twice.

When Lyana heard Vincent’s words, she was a little surprised. When she heard the others mention the anniversary of her death, she had a strange feeling.

She looked up slightly and inadvertently met Vincent’s dark eyes. She was eager to know what he wanted to say to her.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Vincent looked at Lyana quietly, his expression hesitant. He didn’t know what to say.

Seeing that he was quiet, Lyana was about to push him away and step aside when she heard Vincent speaking.

– Not moving.

The man’s voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of bewitchment, as if he was holding something back.

Hearing his words, Lyana obediently laid down on the bed and did not move.

– The name of the eldest daughter of the Royer family is similar to yours. Both have the word AI, Vincent said softly.

Hearing Vincent’s words, Lyana’s thoughts couldn’t help but wander.

She wasn’t sure how she got her name. What worried her the most was that the person who had given her that name was related to the person who had kidnapped her over twenty years ago.

If this person knew she was the eldest daughter of the Royer family, why would she let her go?

Or was this person preparing another plan?

If so, then she was in the open while the enemy was in the dark.

When she goes to the Royer family tomorrow, she will observe the other members of the Royer family first. Maybe she could find some clues.

With that thought in mind, Lyana was filled with anticipation for the trip to the Royer family tomorrow.

She really hoped she could find the person who kidnapped her over twenty years ago as soon as possible. So she could go home earlier.

– The Sanchez and Royer families are particularly close. The eldest of the two families were once comrades. In order to maintain the relationship between the two families, they were preparing to get married.

When Lyana heard Vincent’s words, she was stunned. She had never expected him to take the initiative to mention that.

– The marriage was between me and the eldest daughter of the Royer family. She is my original fiancee.
