A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

The other two people who had fallen to the ground also got up and threw themselves on Lyana. They were both precious daughters of their families. How could they let themselves go after being roughed up today?

Lyana wanted to attack, but when her gaze landed on the classroom door, she saw that someone had entered. Her clenched fists had already relaxed, and she didn’t dodge. She remained planted on the ground, in shock.

Seeing that Lyana was not moving, Paola thought she was frightened by her aura. She raised her hand, preparing to slap Lyana.

– Stop.

Suddenly a stern voice came from the door, stopping Paola!

When she heard that voice, her body shook involuntarily. She turned her head inch by inch towards the classroom door and saw Professor Leon with a furious expression. His face instantly paled.

– Professor… Professor Leon, stammered Paola.

When Nancy saw that Professor Leon had arrived, she immediately burst into tears. She got up from the floor and walked towards the teacher holding her stomach.

– Professor Leon, Lyana Dubois stole my things. I didn’t want to argue with her, but she even hit me. You must stand up to defend me.

Lyana looked down.

Pretending to be pitiful. Who didn’t know this trick?

She looked up. Her beautiful fox eyes were instantly rimmed with red. There was a layer of moisture in his eyes, as if tears were going to fall any moment.

Lyana sniffed and said in a low voice, as if she was about to cry, “Professor Leon, as soon as I arrived in class today, they searched Lucia’s and mine’s offices without hesitation.

– Now they have messed up our things. She even accused me of stealing her tickets.

Lyana choked up for a moment and continued

– They even said they were going to compensate her with my violin and my tickets. Professor, I really didn’t steal his tickets, but they insisted I did. They refused to listen to my explanations and even wanted to hit me. I could only protect myself. Fortunately, you came. I hope you can catch the thief who stole the tickets yourself and clear my name.

She spoke weakly. Every word she said had meaning.

Lucia was amazed.

Oh my god, she really was a white lotus!

Holding her stomach, Nancy, who stood to the side, stared at Lyana in shock. If she wasn’t the victim, she might have believed Lyana’s words.

Lyana was too good at acting.

With that, Lyana looked down, a trace of amusement shining in her eyes.

Wasn’t she pretending to be a white lotus? Who doesn’t know how to do that?

Nancy was still too inexperienced. Seeing Lyana pretending to be a white lotus, her anger instantly surged from her chest to the top of her head. She roared

– Lyana Dubois, you’re a liar! You clearly gave me the first kick. You bitch! Professor Leon, you can’t be fooled by her! You can’t believe her.

Lyana’s eyebrows arched. She says pitifully:

– Nancy, I really don’t know how I offended you. You bullied me like that, and now you’re lying in front of Professor Leon. If you didn’t attack me, how could I accidentally push you to the ground?

Nancy was left speechless.

Thin !

She was about to explode with rage.

– Lyana Dubois, you bitch! I will tear you to pieces.

– Enough.

Professor Leon shouted sternly.

Nancy was shocked by the Professor’s voice. Her heart skipped a beat in her throat. She turned to look at Professor Leon and realized he was staring at her with a livid expression.

Tears welled up in Nancy’s eyes. As she was about to speak, she saw the disappointment in Professor Leon’s eyes.

– Professor Leon, Nancy called cautiously. It was only then that she realized she had been cheated on by Lyana.

The only thing she could do now was to please Professor Leon and get him to come to her defense.

However, Nancy looked at Professor Leon’s cold face and didn’t know what to say. She was afraid of accidentally angering Professor Leon.

Lucia looked at Nancy’s deflated expression and felt extremely happy. She wanted to give Lyana a thumbs up, but now was not the time.

If she had been able to learn a third of Lyana’s skills back then, she would have pressed Nancy to the ground long ago.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Nancy feared that if she didn’t explain herself clearly now, Professor Leon’s impression of her would worsen. She bit her lip.

– Professor Leon, actually, I…

Professor Leon frowned and interrupted Nancy.

– What pushed you to do such a scene, exactly? Look at you. You have all become like this. Those who don’t know you better will think you are local hooligans.

Kelly stood next to Professor Leon and lowered her head slightly. She said very politely

– Professor Leon, the ticket that Nancy lost was the ticket for Mr. Timothee’s concert.

A ticket for the M. Timothee concert?

Professor Leon was slightly amazed.

No wonder the usually elegant young women have all turned into shrews.

No wonder the class is in such a mess.

Seeing that he wasn’t as angry as before, Nancy remembered how Lyana had stolen his tickets. Pointing to Lyana, she accused:

– Professor Leon, the note I lost was found in Lyana’s violin case. She stole my ticket.

Hearing Nancy’s words, Professor Leon frowned slightly and asked:

– What evidence do you have to prove that Lyana Dubois stole your tickets?

Nancy looked at Professor Leon in confusion and said seriously

– All the students in the class know that I have tickets for Mr. Timothy’s concert. Yesterday I placed the concert tickets in my score. Lyana was the last to leave class last night. Today I also found banknotes in his violin case. If she didn’t steal my tickets, who else could it be?

When Professor Leon heard Nancy’s words, he thought there was no concrete proof although his deduction made sense. He frowned and asked:

– Only that ? Where is the evidence ?

Nancy was so anxious that her tears were about to flow.

– Professor Leon, she’s holding my tickets. Isn’t that proof?

Professor Leon pursed his lips and asked:

– So how are you so sure that the ticket in his hand is the one you lost? It can’t be his?

When Professor Leon said this, everyone present was stunned.

Although Mr. Timothy’s tickets were very rare, that did not mean that there was only one ticket for his concert.

Also, Nancy’s name was not written on the ticket.

Just because Lyana had a ticket to Mr. Timothy’s concert didn’t mean they could say she stole Nancy’s ticket. It would be too rash to draw such a conclusion.

When Nancy heard Professor Leon’s words, she choked. For a moment, she didn’t know how to refute him.

Kelly, who stood silently next to the Professor, saw that Nancy was at a disadvantage. In order to get Nancy the tickets for the M. Timothee concert in the future, she said:

– Professor Leon, you may not know this, but Nancy’s father knows Mr. Timothee. That’s why Mr. Timothee gave Nancy a ticket for the concert. Moreover, everyone knows that tickets for Mr. Timothy’s concert are particularly valuable. Ordinary people cannot get them even if they spend money. Also, there doesn’t seem to be a musician named Dubois in An City.

When Nancy heard Kelly’s words, she immediately nodded in agreement.

– Yes, Professor. My ticket disappeared today, and Lyana got a ticket today. If she had taken her ticket yesterday, I wouldn’t have said anything, but she only got a ticket after mine disappeared. If she didn’t steal my ticket, what could it be?

Professor Leon’s gaze settled on Lyana’s face, her expression serious.

– Do you agree with what they said?

She shook her head gently.

– I do not agree.
