A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

When Lucia heard Nancy’s words, she laughed angrily. She said without saying anything,

– Is there something wrong with your brain? By what right can you slander us? You didn’t even have evidence to go through our stuff. Now you’ve made such a mess of our business. I’ll call the police. You violated my privacy.

Nancy lackeys said

– So be it. It was clearly you who stole it. Let the police investigate.

– It’s true, it’s true. One look and I can tell you’re both peasants from God knows where. You have never seen anything so beautiful. That’s why you stole it.

– Yes Yes Yes. That’s right. You stole it.

Nancy nodded. She felt that it was true and that it was really the two of them who had stolen her tickets.

But what if they didn’t? She had to find someone to blame for what happened today. Otherwise, she would feel uncomfortable no matter what.

She looked at Lyana cheekily. His gaze fell on the violin bag in Lyana’s hand.

Nancy’s eyes turned around. She remembers that when they went to search Lyana’s office just now, she took the violin and carried it on her back.

This proved that she was very fond of this violin.

Could the tickets be in the violin bag?

With that in mind, Nancy arrogantly approached Lyana and held out her hand. With a cold expression she ordered,

– Give me the violin bag.

Lyana frowned slightly. She clutched her violin bag and said coldly:

– Nancy, I’m going to give you one last chance to be a decent human. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude.

– Please. How do you want to be rude?

Nancy burst out laughing. She had never seen anyone who dared threaten her. A thief who had stolen her things wanted to threaten her again. It was simply the funniest joke in the world.

– By being a thief?

When the lackeys around Nancy heard her words, they nodded in agreement and glared at Lyana mockingly.

Nancy took a step forward and her gaze fell on Lyana’s face. She continued,

– Lyana, don’t you know how strong our family is? How dare you threaten me? Tell me, what exactly does your family do?

Seeing that Lyana was quiet, Nancy asked:

– For what ? You don’t even know what your father does?

The lackeys around Nancy immediately couldn’t help but smile.

– Lyana is really too funny. She didn’t even get advice from a music teacher. How dare she come to our school alone?

– If you want my opinion, his family must be poor. Otherwise, why couldn’t she afford a teacher and attend a professional class?

– I guess it’s because her family is poor that she doesn’t want others to have anything good.

– Despicable to the bone.

– It is better to stay away from such people. Maybe our things will be stolen too.

…

When the other students heard the words of Nancy’s good friends, they couldn’t take it anymore.

– You can’t say that about Lyana. Moreover, this case has not yet been thoroughly investigated. We are all classmates in the same class. We will go through winds and tides together.

– Yes yes. We will decide after a thorough investigation.

– Although Lyana has not officially and systematically studied music, the fact that she can play beautiful music means that she is very talented in music. She’s better than most of us.

After all, it was the most famous music academy in the country. Most of the students here were of high quality.

As the saying goes, rat droppings ruined a pot of soup.

Nancy and her friends were really bad.

Lucia looked at Nancy coldly and said sarcastically

– I think some people are too jealous. They are jealous that others are better than them, so they slander others for having a bad temper. They are just bad.

Lucia’s words were like a kick on Nancy’s tail. She was so angry that her face turned green.

– You.

Nancy took a few deep breaths, and her expression was much better. Only then did she tell her friends

– All of you, help me snatch Lyana’s violin.

At Nancy’s command, the four moved to snatch Lyana’s violin bag.

In fact, she could have beaten them to the ground, but she didn’t want to hurt her violin because of that. After some hesitation, she let go.

Nancy took Lyana’s violin bag from her friend. She put the violin bag on the table and opened it.

Inside the violin case was a very beautiful violin. The patterns were vertical, dense and uniform. It was simply the ferghana horse among the horses.

Nancy’s heart skipped a beat.

His family had also kept many musical instruments as treasures, including violins, but they had never seen such a moving violin.

This violin must be expensive.

Nancy gave Lyana a suspicious look. How could Lyana, who had no past, use such an expensive item?

Nancy rolled her eyes and said coldly

– Student Lyana Dubois, where did you steal that violin?

Lyana looked at Nancy coldly. Vincent and William’s names were written on his letter of recommendation. She had only been able to study in this school thanks to them. His starting point was higher than that of everyone present.

However, she was a quiet person. She had never liked causing trouble, but she wasn’t afraid of trouble either. His patience was limited.

Nancy had already crossed the line. She clenched her fists, the veins on the backs of her hands swelling. His cold gaze gave shivers.

– I advise you to watch your language. Also, get your dirty hands off my violin.

– Looks like I was right. You are already going into a black rage because of the humiliation.

Nancy pursed her lips and pulled an object out of the box, waving it in front of everyone.

– Student Lyana Dubois, can you explain to me what it is?

All eyes were on the object in Nancy’s hand. It was none other than the ticket for M. Timothee’s concert.

Immediately everyone in the class was stunned.

Nancy clutched the note in her hand and glared at Lyana, enunciating every word clearly.

– You said you didn’t steal my tickets. Now tell me. What is it exactly ?

Lucia frowned slightly. The tickets in Nancy’s hand were indeed tickets for M. Timothee’s concert.

The other students also looked at Lyana in shock.

– Oh my god, it’s not possible. Lyana really stole something.

– Now that she got caught, she shouldn’t be able to deny it.

– I don’t think Lyana is that kind of person. She has such a good temperament, and she plays the zither so well.

– You really can’t judge a book by its cover. I was only speaking on his behalf.

…

Hearing everyone’s talk, Nancy smiled.

– Lyana, you really are an impostor. How dare you try to act like a victim? Think hard. You stole something and broke school rules. You will be expelled from school.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Kelly, Nancy’s good friend, said.

When Lucia heard Kelly’s words she frowned and said angrily

– Kelly, do you know how to speak properly? Either way, you’re still a college student. Aren’t you being too rude talking like that?

– Manners? Why would I talk manners with a thief?

Kelly raised her eyebrows, her voice rising in pitch.

– Lucia, why are you so concerned about Lyana? You two worked together to steal the tickets?

Nancy nodded in agreement and said:

– Kelly is right. Without his help and others, I might have missed M. Timothee’s concert.

When Kelly heard Nancy’s words, her lips involuntarily curled up.

This time she had helped Nancy find the tickets for Mr. Timothy’s concert. If Nancy could get the tickets again, she would definitely bring it with her.

When that happened, she could meet Mr. Timothy with her own eyes.
