A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

Hearing Claire’s words, Lyana frowned and said impatiently:

– Do you believe me ? If you say another word, I’ll knock you down.

When Claire heard Lyana’s words, she was slightly taken aback. A disdainful smile appeared on his face.

– Lyana, aren’t you too arrogant? Look at you.

– It’s noisy.

Lyana’s beautiful fox eyes narrowed slightly.

Claire continued:

– When we get off the plane later, I’ll definitely…

Before Claire could finish speaking, she felt a sharp pain in her ear. Her expression changed abruptly, and it was only then that she noticed that Lyana had stuck a needle in her ear.

She was in so much pain that she was drenched in cold sweats. Her face was pale and she looked at Lyana. As she was about to speak, she felt as though her brain was being stabbed by thousands of needles. It was so painful that tears ran down her face.

Indifferently, Lyana pulled out the silver needle and said:

– Hush for two hours and you won’t hurt anymore. If you still want to talk, don’t blame me for not reminding you. You could become mute in the future. You better behave yourself now.

Claire looked at Lyana with a grudge. She lowered her eyes slightly and stopped talking. She glanced at William, who was sitting nearby, hoping he would come to her defense.

William frowned and looked away. His gaze landed on Claire’s face.

– When we get off the plane, ask my secretary to arrange for you to return to An City. You don’t need to follow me anymore.

From the start, William didn’t like Claire following him. If his grandmother hadn’t said that Claire knew how to play on the stones, he wouldn’t have accepted.

Even if Claire had talent, he didn’t need such a woman.

Claire looked at William in disbelief. She had never expected him to hunt her for a gold digger.

Claire’s tears of distress were flowing uncontrollably, but she couldn’t say a word.

In the country, she was also famous in the world of stone games. It was precisely because of this that she was able to persuade Grandmother Royer to come with William.

However, all of this was destroyed by Lyana.

What Claire didn’t understand was why William was standing up for Lyana when it was clearly her who had done something wrong.

Plus, Lyana was her competitor!

At the thought of being stung by Lyana, Claire’s face turned red with anger.

This time, Lyana calmly sat down in her seat. Now that her surroundings were finally calm, she felt much better.

Two hours later, the plane finally landed.

Lyana and William walk side by side in the front, while Claire follows behind, panting.

Claire ran alongside William on her high heels and glared resentfully at Lyana. She temporarily gave up arguing with Lyana on the plane and said sweetly:

– Brother William, don’t worry. I won’t say anything more this time.

Without even looking at Claire, William said

– Felix Lopez, sends Miss Silva back.

Felix quickly approached and said politely to Claire:

– Miss Silva, your plane will take off in half an hour. You can go there and register now.

Claire’s expression suddenly changed, and she gritted her teeth. She was the daughter of the Silva family, and was very good at math from a young age. She was also quite famous in the world of international finance.

Ever since she was young, everyone around her had always praised and treated her with respect. When had she ever suffered such grievances?

Ever since she started pursuing William, her original pride was completely gone. She only hoped that William would look at her again.

However, William’s heart was like a stone. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t warm him up.

Despite this, Claire still wanted to fight for him.

– Brother William, I am already an adult. I don’t want to go back there now. You can’t force me to. Since you don’t want to travel with me, I won’t follow you and bother you.

– All right.

William accepted without hesitation.

Claire was amazed.

Claire’s face went pale.

Seeing Claire in this state, Lyana couldn’t help but laugh.

William was truly a straight man. Could it be that he couldn’t tell what the girl meant?

Claire stood angrily, staring resentfully at the retreating silhouettes of William and Lyana.

She was the daughter of the Silva family. How could she leave so depressed?

She certainly couldn’t leave like that!

If this affair were to spread, she would be humiliated!

Since William wanted the Moon Goddess, this matter would be easy to settle.

As long as she got the Moon Goddess, William would esteem her and apologize to her.

Thinking about this, Claire became proud again.

Standing next to Claire, Felix cautiously reminded her:

– Miss Silva, your plane is about to take off. Please register.

Claire was already in a bad mood. She glared at Felix and said angrily,

– Clear ! Stay away. I do not board.

Felix’s expression darkened slightly when he heard Claire’s words. He put down Claire’s luggage and walked towards William without saying anything.

Claire was about to explode in anger when she saw Felix throwing away his luggage.

William was the eldest young master of the Royer family. It was normal for him to treat her like that.

Felix was just a little bodyguard, and yet he dared to be so arrogant. He just didn’t take the Silva family seriously.

Claire looked at Felix with a somber expression. Then, she looked at the luggage with an expression of displeasure and reluctantly went to pick it up.

At this moment, a low, hoarse male voice sounded from the side.

– Let me help you.

When Claire heard that voice, she was slightly stunned. She looked up, and when she saw the man standing in front of her, her eyes involuntarily widened.

Jesus!

There really was such a handsome man in the world!

This man was also such a gentleman.

Claire’s heart skipped a beat.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

This man seemed familiar to her.

It was only then that Claire remembered that this man appeared to be the legendary King of the Game, Alexander Walker.

While Claire was in shock, Alexandre had already handed over his luggage to his bodyguard.

Claire stared at him. She felt that her heart had collapsed.

Claire looked at Alexandre with a trace of curiosity in her heart. Was he also here to participate in this stone game event?

However, Alexander failed to notice Claire’s anomaly. Her gaze was fixed on William’s back not far away, and her thin lips curled slightly.

William Royer!

It had been a long time since they had met. He missed him so much.

My hotel !

Lyana followed William out of the car.

Both entered the hotel. Suddenly, Lyana hears a familiar and annoying voice.

– Brother, look! Your sister is here.

That voice was too familiar for Lyana. When she turned around, she saw Ines holding Nathan’s hand as they got out of the car.

Ines wore a long white dress and a straw hat. She had a sweet smile on her face, like she was here for a vacation.

A trace of impatience crossed Lyana’s eyes. The enemies were really meant to meet on a narrow road. Even though they were abroad, they could still meet.

At that time, Nathan also saw Lyana. His gaze stopped for a moment on her face before moving towards her with Ines.

Nathan didn’t speak to Lyana. Instead, he looked at William, who was standing next to her, and asked him seriously:

– Director Royer, the Montagne du Sud project is finished. When do you think we should put the house back?

– Next month.

William answered simply.

Nathan nodded slightly. Eventually his gaze landed on Lyana, who was next to William. A trace of joy crossed his eyes.
