A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

Chapter 166



– You don’t believe me either?

Lucie frowned slightly and looked at Lyana seriously.

Could it be that this woman, like everyone else, felt that she was not a normal child?

When Lyana heard Lucie say “too”, her heart sank for some reason. What kind of environment did this child live in to ask such a question?

Children need to be trusted in order to establish their trust.

Lyana looked at Lucrecia with a pang in her heart. Smiling, she says:

– Of course I believe you, but I want to know where your house is. You even wrote me an IOU. What if I can’t find you in the future?

She thought about it seriously and felt that Lyana’s words made sense. She took out her phone, turned it on and opened WeChat.

– Let’s add each other on WeChat. Don’t worry, I never give back the money I owe.

Lyana was slightly stunned.

She coughed awkwardly and said seriously:

– I mean I will always pay back what I owe.

The smile on Lyana’s face grew even brighter. With Lucie’s WeChat she thought she would secretly follow Lucie later. She would leave after returning home.

Lucie headed for the door of the porridge shop. She seemed to have thought of something and turned to look at Lyana.

– Don’t follow me.

The smile on Lyana’s face froze for a moment, then widened.

– By the way, as a girl, don’t walk around in the middle of the night. It’s very dangerous here.

Lucie gave stern instructions.

She thought of her car’s license plate number. It would protect her in the future.

Lyana smiled. It was strange for a four-year-old girl to worry about an elderly aunt.

However, Lyana’s heart warmed.

A girl is the best. A girl was like a considerate little cotton jacket.

Lyana originally planned to follow Lucie five minutes after she left, but when she thought about what she said, she didn’t want to go against her wishes.

Lyana took out her phone and used her hacking skills to enter Skynet. From the surveillance cameras, she watched Lucie’s route. When she headed for an apartment, the signal instantly disappeared.

It seemed that a very powerful firewall had been installed in this apartment. Most people wouldn’t be able to crack it.

Lyana naturally didn’t want to intrude on other people’s privacy, so she shut down the website.

At that moment, his phone started ringing.

She opened it and saw that it was Lucie who had sent her an address after returning home. She was relieved.

Lucie stood in the doorway of her house, hesitating to enter.

Thomas’ surprised voice came from the house.

– Is the young master avoiding Skynet on purpose? The places he goes are all blind spots that cannot be seen by surveillance cameras. If he didn’t come back himself, then…

Thomas was really amazed!

How did the young master know where to find Skynet?

He had actually dodged it perfectly.

It was impossible. The young master was still a child.

Thomas looked at Vincent in panic and asked uncertainly:

– Second Master, could the Young Master have been kidnapped? Should we call the police?

Vincent clenched his fists, frowning. His expression turned serious.

When this child was one year old, he was like any other child. However, he spoke less and less after that.

Worried about the child’s health, he took him to several major hospitals for examination. However, the results of the hospital examinations made it clear to her that the child’s vocal cords had no problems.

The child was just a little antisocial and did not want to communicate with others.

It was the first time he had left the house on his own. He had even deliberately turned off his phone.

Thomas’ gaze inadvertently landed on the door. He saw Lucas Sanchez standing there.

– Young master, you are finally back. Smiling, Thomas stepped forward and ushered Lucas in hastily. He led Lucas over to the couch and sat down.

– Why are your hands so cold? Let me heat them up for you.

Vincent stood to the side, frowning. He stared at Lucas without batting an eyelid.

At that time, the nanny came running out. With a worried expression, she said anxiously,

– Young master, my young master, why did you go out alone?

The nanny sat to the side and helped Lucas put on a shirt. She says softly:

-I told you to listen to Dad and stay home to study. How could you sneak out? Fortunately, you’re fine. There are bad people everywhere. If you’re taken away by bad people, you’ll never see dad again.

When Lucas heard the nanny’s words, he lowered his head slightly and didn’t speak. His eyes gradually darkened.

Seeing this, the nanny, Anne, couldn’t help but sigh. She looked up at Vincent.

– M. Sanchez, this kid is really worrying. He doesn’t want to do his homework, and the tutor can’t do anything for him. What should we do now? This child is already four and a half years old. He goes out often, and he has no sense of security. What will happen if, in the future, he lacks basic common sense?Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Vincent approached Lucas. Thomas hastened to give up his seat and Vincent sat down. His voice softened.

– Why didn’t you do your homework?

– Dad.

He pursed his lips. After shouting, he lowered his head to look at the ground.

Seeing Lucas like that, Anne chuckled.

This child was indeed mentally retarded. Other than knowing how to call for help, no matter how she hit him or scolded him, he didn’t say anything or complain.

Taking care of a mentally retarded child and receiving a high salary, she felt that this job was really easy.

Anne couldn’t bear to leave this job behind. She said spontaneously:

– M. Sanchez, I was with the young master for a year. My relationship with him is also good. Although I am only a university student, it is easy for me to teach Young Master some kindergarten knowledge. I will help the young master learn to stand up straight in society and not be bullied in the future.

Seeing Lucas lower his head in silence, Vincent nodded gently.

– Miss Anne, it was hard for you.

– What trouble? This child is so adorable. He is so friendly.

Anne said considerately.

Vincent turned to look at Thomas and ordered:

– Double his salary.

Thomas replied without expression:

– Yes.

Anne was delighted. She had only said it casually. She didn’t expect Vincent to be willing to pay double the price. She originally asked for 50, 000 yuan per month. If she received twice that amount, wouldn’t that be 100, 000 yuan?

If she earned more than one million yuan a year, wouldn’t she be rich and beautiful?

Anne’s gaze fell on Lucas again. It seemed that this little idiot was really precious!

Anne thought that as long as she did a good job and Vincent thought that little idiot couldn’t leave her, she could marry the Sanchez family in the future.

Anne’s gaze fell on Vincent’s handsome face, and she was overjoyed.

After Vincent and Thomas left, she quickly closed the door. She rushed to the window and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Vincent’s car had already left the driveway.

She drew the curtains. The softness and kindness in his eyes disappeared, replaced by displeasure and coldness. She gave off a sinister aura as she walked towards Lucas.

– You’ve grown ?

Anne approached Lucas and looked down at him. She scolds him severely:

– I just slapped you. Do you have to run away? What, are you trying to kill me?

The more she talked, the angrier she got. She poked Lucas’ head with her index finger.

– Little mute, stupid. Let me tell you, just because you’re disobedient, your grandma doesn’t even visit you anymore. Your mother doesn’t want you, and your father doesn’t come often either. Only I’m nice and I don’t despise you after taking care of you. You have to be respectful to me, understand?

Lucas nodded. When he lowered his head, his delicate eyebrows furrowed.

Of course, Anne didn’t see Lucas’ expression. Now that she was satisfied after fuming, she looked much better.

– Children should be punished if they do something wrong. Go get the fruit platter in the kitchen.
