A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

Hearing Doctor Sha’s words, a cold gleam crossed William’s eyes. He said coldly,

– She asked.

Doctor Sha didn’t know the cause and effect of this matter, so he didn’t say much.

William seemed to have thought of something and asked:

– Does she take painkillers?

– Yes.

– Stop painkillers.

Doctor Sha was slightly stunned upon hearing William say this.

– You mean you won’t give him painkillers?

You should know that Claire’s uterus had been removed. It would certainly be very painful for the next two weeks. If she weren’t given painkillers, it wouldn’t be any different from being tortured to death. Moreover, Claire had to endure this pain at all times.

– Yes.

William nodded, not wanting to say more.

Although Doctor Sha couldn’t stand it, he didn’t dare to disobey William.

Doctor Sha and William had been in touch for so long. William was usually gentle, but he was very cruel to Claire. Had Claire done something unforgivable?

Doctor Sha immediately averted his attention and pretended to be relaxed. He said :

– The view from the back garden is not bad. Let’s take a look.

– All right.

Doctor Sha heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing William agree.

– Are there any supplements for women?

Doctor Sha looked at William in confusion and nodded.

– Yes.

– Then I’m going to have to hassle Doctor Sha to help me make some for Lyana to feed her body.

– All right.

Doctor Sha looked at William thoughtfully. It seemed like Lyana already had a place in William’s heart.

However, Doctor Sha did not understand how William felt about Lyana.

As far as he was concerned, anything that wasn’t romantic was fine.

William stepped forward. Unknowingly, Lyana’s beautiful face appeared in her mind, and her heart slowly softened.

He didn’t know why he felt so good around Lyana, but he couldn’t help but treat her right.

This kind of relationship had nothing to do with romance. He just wanted to be good to her, like he had been to Alexia.

However, what intrigued William was that he had never had such feelings for any girl other than Alexia.

He had never even felt this with

Claire, with whom he had grown up.

Lyana was the only person who could make him feel that way.

At that time, a gust of wind passed. William and Doctor Sha had already left for the back garden.

The back garden was quiet now. There was no one but him and Doctor Sha.

The scenery here was as calm and beautiful as Doctor Sha had said. It was refreshing.

Doctor Sha looked at the time. It was already eight fifty-nine. However, what puzzled him was why Lyana wasn’t there yet.

For some reason, Doctor Sha couldn’t help but feel nervous.

The seconds ticked by.

William didn’t want to stay here any longer. He turned to Doctor Sha and said:

– It’s getting late. Let’s go home early. I’m afraid Doctor Dubois will worry if she doesn’t find me.

At this time, Doctor Sha was a little troubled. He didn’t know how to persuade William to stay.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Nine o’clock sharp.

– I am the.

A soft, clear voice echoed from the side and fell into William’s ears.

William’s cold heart seemed to be instantly enveloped in sunlight. The ice melted and her heart warmed.

He looked up and saw Lyana standing nearby, waving at him.

He didn’t know when Lyana had arrived, but his eyes were bright with anticipation. It looked like she had been there a long time.

Lyana held a glass bottle in her hand. The glass bottle shone brightly. Upon closer inspection, he realized the glass bottle was filled with fireflies.

Lyana opened the bottle. The fireflies instantly flew out of the glass bottle, and a sparkling light spread.

The fireflies made Lyana even more beautiful, like a fairy from another world.

Lyana’s red lips curved into a slight smile. Her beautiful fox eyes curved into crescents. They were so beautiful that you forgot to breathe.

His interactions with Lyana during this time flashed through his mind like a movie.

Both had gone through life and death together. This feeling touched him.

William looked into Lyana’s eyes. Without knowing it, Lyana was like a ray of light that illuminated the darkest part of her heart.

William’s lips moved slightly.

Lyana looked at William’s handsome face and remembered the first time she had been to the Royers. William was standing at the door of the bedroom of the eldest daughter of the Royer family, but he dared not enter.

In this case, William must have loved his sister so much that he did not want to face the death of the eldest daughter of the Royer family…

At this thought, Lyana’s heart seemed to be squeezed by an invisible hand. Even breathing became difficult.

His lips moved slightly, and his voice cracked.

– Brother.

She had been suppressing this form of address for several days. Today, she finally managed to say it.

Suddenly, tears filled her eyes.

At that moment, she clearly realized that she had a family. She had not been abandoned.

It’s not that her family hadn’t looked for her before. They had been lied to. They were consumed by the pain of his death.

When William heard Lyana’s words, his body stiffened and his pupils involuntarily dilated. He looked at Lyana in disbelief. After a long time, he asked:

– What did you call me just now?

Lyana walked towards William step by step. The fireflies in the bottle spread little by little.

When Doctor Sha saw this situation, he was a little emotional for a moment, and his eyes involuntarily turned red.

It turned out that Lyana hadn’t planned to recognize William that evening. Instead, she appeared at the right time after catching those fireflies.

Seeing that Lyana was getting closer and closer, Doctor Sha silently took a few steps back and gradually moved away, leaving that space for Lyana and William.

When Lyana approached him, William finally saw the dust on Lyana’s face. She must have gotten dirty accidentally when she caught the fireflies earlier. She looked like a domestic kitten.

William gulped and said uncertainly

– What did you call me?

Lyana met William’s gaze. Without any hesitation, she said word for word,

– Brother.

Lyana had already thought of many scenarios where she would reunite with William. She had also mentally prepared herself. However, when that time came, she was still very nervous.

William remained planted on the ground, looking at Lyana in confusion. For a while, he treated Lyana like his sister.

Although Alexia often called him brother, when Lyana called him brother, her heart trembled violently.

William’s breathing involuntarily dropped, and he was a little startled.

After a while, William remembered that Lyana had once told the others that he was her sworn brother.

A trace of sadness crossed William’s eyes as he relieved the pressure in his heart. His voice was still soft when he said:

– Miss Dubois, if we get married, we will officially have a banquet when we return to An City.

Lyana wasn’t surprised that William said that. After all, no one would believe that their sister, who had died twenty years ago, would ever stand before them again.

Lyana shook her head gently. Her beautiful fox eyes stared at William without flinching and she said:

– You have misunderstood. I have no intention of marrying you because you are my biological brother.

– Biological brother?

William asked with a frown.

– Yes.

Lyana nodded and continued,

– Although you may not believe what I am about to say, it is the truth. Do you remember the questions I asked you after you woke up from surgery?
