A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

However, he was now working in the game to earn money. When the time came, he still owed Aunty Lyana money, so he couldn’t let Aunty Lyana know his game ID.

If she knew he could repay the huge amount of money he owed by gambling, she certainly wouldn’t be ready to let him return the money.

Lucas’ gaze swirled around him. He remembered that his father listened a lot to Aunty Lyana, so he asked:

– Auntie Lyana, can I keep my game a secret? I don’t want dad to know.

– OK.

– I still owe you money.

Hearing Lucas’ words, Lyana instantly reacted and couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

– If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have forgotten.

– I’ll give you the money back tomorrow.

Lucas says seriously.

Lyana looked at Lucas’ little face and couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Every time Lucas pretended to be an adult, she couldn’t help laughing because she thought he was so cute.

– Very well, if you don’t return the money tomorrow, I’m going to have to charge you extra interest.

Lyana teased him with a smile, reaching out to scratch Lucas’ tiny nose intimately.

At this moment, Vincent came down the stairs to the second floor.

This morning, he had eliminated the people named Chuan that Thomas had found. Whichever way he looked at it, he thought those people couldn’t be the ones Lyana cared about.

Vincent’s frown deepened. When he went to the living room on the first floor, he saw Lyana and Lucas discussing intimately from afar.

His furrowed brows slowly relaxed, and the coldness in his eyes gradually faded. His gaze turned soft.

For some reason, Vincent felt it was more like a “home”.

Lyana felt someone else watching her. She looked up and saw Vincent wearing a black suit, standing calmly in front of the stairs.

His facial features were well defined, and his eyes were deep. Her face was a little pale from illness, but that didn’t stop her from being handsome.

Standing there, everything around her instantly paled in comparison.

He was like a noble prince straight out of a painting.

Seeing Vincent like that, Lyana’s breathing stopped. In a daze, she remembered the adorable Vicki from yesterday.

It was hard for her to imagine that Vincent and Vicki were the same person.

Although they had the same face, their auras were completely different.

She remembered what had happened in the tub. She had never thought that child Vicki would take the initiative…

However, when she thought about what happened last night, Lyana’s ears couldn’t help but blush. She hastened to look away from Vincent’s face.

Vincent didn’t notice anything abnormal about Lyana. He walked over to the couch and looked at Lucas first.

He sat down on the other side of Lucas and asked in a low, hoarse voice:

– You feel better ?

Lucas looked up at Vincent and silently hid his phone behind him. Only then did he nod.

Vincent naturally didn’t notice Lucas’ small gestures. His gaze fell on Lyana’s face and he said:

– Let’s go. We will leave now.

Lyana was slightly stunned. She looked up at Vincent and asked, confused,

– So early ?

– Yes.

At that moment, the butler handed the wrapped bread and milk to Lyana and said respectfully:

– Doctor Dubois, breakfast has been prepared for you.

She looked at the breakfast in her hand. It was just enough for one person. It seems that Vincent and Lucas have already had their breakfast. Vincent had to ask the butler to prepare it in advance.

– THANKS.

She smiled at the butler.

Then, Lyana’s gaze landed on Lucas’s face. She gently rubbed his head and said with a smile,

– Lucas, stay home obediently.

Lucas nodded upon hearing Lyana’s words. Seeing that Lyana and Vincent were gone, he watched their receding backs, the light in his eyes gradually fading.

He wanted to stay with Aunt Lyana forever.

But Aunt Lyana seemed so busy and was often away from home.

At that point, Lyana walked away a bit too quickly to notice Lucas’ disappointed look.

When she and Vincent arrived in the middle of the Sanchez family garden, she jumped up and hastened to say:

– I suddenly remembered that I didn’t bring my blessing bag. Wait for me in the car. I will be back soon.
