A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

She was the one who had called Vincent to clarify things for her. However, she did not expect Mr. Timothy to take the initiative to post on Weibo to name her as his musician.

Fortunately, this case had been resolved, and his life had resumed its normal course.

In the evening, Lyana returned to the Sanchez family villa. As she reaches her room, she hears Vincent on the phone.

Vincent’s voice was low, and she couldn’t hear him clearly.

– I’m coming very soon. Whatever happens, you have to find it.

Lyana was slightly stunned. It was the first time she had seen Vincent so anxious. Had he lost something important?

Before she could think, Vincent turned and saw her.

Their eyes met.

Before Lyana could speak, she saw Vincent’s guilty expression. However, he quickly regained his composure.

– Do you plan to go out?

Smiling, she walked in and casually asked

– Yes, answered Vincent.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Lyana put the violin down and sat to the side, reading the sheet music Oscar had sent her. M. Timothy’s concert took place tomorrow evening at eight o’clock. She wanted to memorize all the scores before the concert started.

It was a huge project. She couldn’t relax at all.

Vincent was afraid that Lyana would ask him what he was doing outside. Now that he saw her looking at her phone, he frowned slightly and asked:

– Shouldn’t you ask me where I’m going?

Lyana was memorizing her score. When she heard Vincent’s voice, she froze for a moment and looked at him in confusion. -Why should I ask?

He was left speechless.

Lyana was speechless.

After five seconds of silence, he left with a cold expression. Lyana lowered her head and continued to read her notes.

Short of a billion yuan business opportunity, no one could bother her.

When she finished memorizing all the scores, it was already midnight. She put down her phone and saw that Vincent hadn’t come home. She wanted to practice with the violin, but she was worried that her voice would disturb the matriarch Sanchez, so she picked up the phone and called Silvia.

– You are busy ?

– Yes a bit.

Silvia’s voice sounded a bit distant. She had to put her phone aside and put it on speakerphone.

– Are there any guests?

– No, just me. It’s very quiet here.

– I’m going to pick you up now.

She smiled.

There was a pause on the other end of the line, followed by Silvia’s voice.

– Why do you want to come here? It’s a funeral home. Don’t tell me you’re here to practice your instrument again.

– Silvia, you are so smart. Be nice and wait for me there.

With that, Lyana hung up.

Practicing the violin required a quiet place. Also, one of the songs was written for loved ones who passed away. If she could practice it in the funeral home, it would be easier for her to inject her soul into it. It should sublimate the whole song.

Forty minutes later, she arrived at the funeral home. After parking the car, she pulled out her phone and was about to call Silvia when she heard the voice of a young child.

– Auntie, can you lend me 10 dollars?

Lyana was surprised. She turned around and saw a pretty little girl standing under the lamp post.

There was a shadow.

She heaved a sigh of relief. Since this little girl had a shadow, that meant she wasn’t a ghost.

To be honest, it was indeed strange to meet a child asking to borrow money from her in a funeral home full of dead people in the middle of the night.

Of course, whoever it was, their first reaction was to think they had encountered a ghost.

Lyana walked over to the little girl. It wasn’t until she approached that she gave her a good look.

This little girl looked like she was only four years old. His eyes looked like those of a fox, but also those of a peach blossom.

The little girl’s long curly hair made her exquisite facial features look exceptionally adorable.

However, this little girl had one hand in her pocket. For some reason, she looked kinda cool.

The little girl frowns slightly, her thin lips purse, giving off a cold aura.

– You..

Lyana wanted to push the little girl away, but the little girl avoided her hand, as if she didn’t like interacting with strangers. She crouched down and smiled at the little girl, asking her worriedly:

– It’s so late. Why are you here all alone? Your parents must be very worried about you. Can you tell the aunt where you live so I can send you home?

The little girl stared at Lyana and said coldly:

– Aunt, can you lend me ten dollars?

Lyana was slightly stunned. Perplexed, she asked:

– Why do you want the money?

– I’m hungry.

Lyana looked at the little girl in front of her and seemed to remember her own child. If this child survived, he would probably be the same age as this little girl.

She would certainly cherish her child very much. She would never let her child wander and starve.

For some reason, Lyana’s heart sank. She said softly:

-There’s a porridge shop not far away. Aunt will take you there to eat. It’s OK ?

The little girl looked at Lyana and hesitated, thinking deeply.

His father had already told him in the past not to go with strangers.

However, this aunt didn’t seem like a bad person.

The little girl hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said:

– All right.

Before leaving, the little girl glanced at Lyana’s car plate number.

The porridge shop was not far. According to the wishes of the little girl, Lyana ordered porridge and a cabbage bun for her. She also ordered a bowl of porridge and ate it slowly.

Once satisfied, the little girl wiped her mouth with a tissue. She even handed Lyana a handkerchief.

While she was paying the bill, she heard the little girl say to the boss:

– Uncle, can I ask you if you can give me a pen and some paper to use?

When the owner of the porridge shop heard a pleasant voice, his gaze fell on the little girl’s face and he smiled brightly. It was the first time he had seen such a cute little girl. He handed the pen and paper to the little girl.

Lyana watched the little girl walk over to a table with a pen and paper. She sat down on a stool and wrote seriously.

A four-year-old could write?

Lyana was a little surprised. After paying the bill, she approached the little girl and saw her handing her the paper.

Perplexed, she took the piece of paper. Her eyes lit up when she saw the words on it.

The writing on the paper was still considered neat, but it was already very good for a four-year-old.

Lucie owes you 15 yuan.

Lucas looked up at Lyana and said:

– Earlier, the boss said that this meal would cost 15 yuan. Take it as a gift. Thanks for bringing me here.

Lyana looked at the IOU in her hand. This little girl was serious. She was only four years old.

Instinctively, she wanted to reject it. However, she thought Lucie would certainly be very upset if she did.

Lyana couldn’t bear to see her upset. She put the note away solemnly and said with a smile, – So don’t forget.

Lucas nodded seriously and smiled.

Lyana smiled too. It was the first time she smiled at him. Even though it was just a smile, she looked like an exquisite doll.

On the other side, the owner of the porridge shop looked at Lyana in confusion.

This woman looked quite wealthy. How could she be so miserly as to let a child buy her a meal?

Holding her bag, Lyana smiled at Lucie and said:

– All right, can you tell me where your house is now? I will fire you.

When Lucie heard Lyana’s words, she refused.

– I can go home alone.

Lyana was still worried when she heard Lucie’s words. As she was about to speak, she saw Lucie pull out her phone.

– I often come here, so I know the way home.

Lyana frowned slightly.

– But…
