A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

– Lyana, University S is having a banquet tonight. Doctor Durand from the field of traditional Chinese medicine will also attend. Aren’t you interested in this area? You could talk to him.

Lyana’s smile widened. After thanking Professor Tom and asking for the address, she pulled out a dress and dried it in the dryer, then put it on and left.

Butler Meyer, who was carrying a fruit platter, saw that Lyana was about to leave the house. She looked at Lyana in surprise and asked,

– Second Young Lady, it’s already so late. Where are you going?

– There is a banquet I plan to attend. I may be back quite late tonight.

Lyana came out on her high heels, no longer paying attention to the butler.

Butler Meyer’s face darkened as she watched Lyana leave. A thought seemed to strike her and she pulled out her cell phone to call Vincent.

Lyana drove to college, parked her car outside, and drove inside.

When she got to the banquet hall, she saw that Professor Tom hadn’t arrived yet. She started eating dessert on her own.

Ines and her boyfriend, Collin Perrot, appeared at the entrance to the banquet hall. Collin studied medicine and Ines was invited as a date.

Ines affectionately held Collin’s arm. She could tell he was a little nervous and was talking comfortably.

– Brother Collin, don’t worry. You will certainly be chosen by Dr. Durand!

On the surface, this banquet was just a networking event for the big shots in the medical field, but in fact, it was for Dr. Durand to select some young doctors to participate in his cancer research project. .ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Collin was one of the nicest gentlemen in An City. He had a good family background, a good education and a good appearance. For countless girls, he represented the ideal boyfriend.

Collin was very different from the other wealthy young heirs of An City. He was obsessed with the field of medicine and had a simple nature. Many professors of medicine praised him for his talent and intelligence, saying that it would certainly lead to great things in the field of medicine in the future.

At the time, Ines had seen how close Lyana was to Collin. She had always loved stealing what Lyana had, so she confessed to Collin in public and made him her boyfriend.

Ines and Collin were nonchalantly having a bite to eat in the banquet hall when his gaze landed on his sister not far away. She whispered,

– Brother Collin, I see my sister. I will greet her!

Ines hadn’t been with Collin for so long because she hadn’t found a better man yet.

Collin was momentarily stunned when he heard Ines’ words. He followed her gaze and saw Lyana wearing a white evening dress, casually eating refreshments. He felt a wave of disgust and looked away in displeasure.

Ines naturally sensed Collin’s change in attitude and she hastily consoled him.

– Brother Collin, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to tell sister you’d be attending tonight.

In other words, Lyana was here for him.

Collin’s eyebrows narrowed tightly, his frown deepening. He didn’t think missing a fool was something to be proud of. He turned away and answered humbly,

– Go for it!

Five years ago, he was discussing medicine with Lyana. He felt that Lyana was not a bad person. Later, he heard from other people that there was something wrong with his character.

Not only did Lyana announce to everyone that she was his girlfriend, but she also bullied her weaker classmates. Due to this incident, the value of Collin’s purse was deducted.

He had told Lyana about it and explained the situation to her, asking her to stop spreading rumors.

But she pretended to be ignorant and even maintained that she had done nothing. Her innocent look made Collin want to vomit.

However, two days later, she wrote him a letter and booked a room for the two of them.

When Lyana returned to school, she frantically searched for Martin and even set his desk on fire.

After that, she was diagnosed with a mental illness and sent to the hospital.

Collin had thought Lyana would have a clearer mind after recovering in the hospital for five years. He didn’t expect her to continue harassing him, almost like a ghost haunting her killer.

He headed for the door in frustration. He was about to light a cigarette when his gaze landed on the man not far from him. He immediately put on a polite smile.

It was Vincent Sanchez!

He was the most famous man in An City!

Even though Collin didn’t care about his family’s business, his parents had always told him to be polite to Vincent even when he was a kid. This man was not someone the Perrot family could afford to offend.

– Second Young Master Sanchez.

He walked over to Vincent. Seeing the other man stop, Collin smiles.

– I am Collin Perrot.

Vincent stared coldly at the man in front of him for a while, then remembered that this man was indeed Collin Perrot. He made a deadpan grunt, then seemed to have thought of something, asking hoarsely,

– What time does the banquet start?

Collin saw Vincent’s brief glance towards the banquet hall and immediately understood.

– It starts at 8 p. m. The second young master Sanchez can come back later!

Vincent did not answer. Hands in his pockets, he turned and left with Thomas.

Collin watched Vincent return as he left. His eyes shone with admiration
