A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

With this thought, Ines stepped forward and gave a gentle smile, asking politely,

– Excuse me, sisters, where are you moving these plants?

– Villa of the Sanchez family.

The smile on the face of Ines froze. The villa of the Sanchez family. Wasn’t that where Lyana lived?

Did Lyana ask these people to move the plants?

– Are you moving all this?

She asked with a smile.

– Just these few.

Ines’ gaze swept over the garden. These plants should belong to Mr. Martin. Lyana certainly wouldn’t dare take them all away.

However, why did Lyana take some of the plants away?

Could there be a secret hidden in these plants?

At this moment, the nurses got into the van and prepared to leave.

Ines walked over quickly and smiled at one of the nurses.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

– Sister, please wait.

The two young nurses looked at Ines with surprise.

She gave a sweet smile and said,

– Sisters, my name is Ines Dubois. Some time ago, my sister said she would give me a potted plant. I came here today to choose one. I will bring it back myself tonight, in case my sister asks someone else to send one again.

The two nurses eyed Ines warily. Their gazes finally landed on Gustave’s face, as if they were wondering if that was the case.

He nodded and introduced,

– This is the second young mistress of the Dubois family.

The two nurses were instantly enlightened and adoring smiles appeared on their faces. One of the nurses said:

– In that case, second young mistress Dubois, please choose the pot you want.

Ines smiled and thanked them. She walked over to the truck and took a few looks, then selected one of the plants at random. She thanked them again and left.

Although she did not recognize this pot of greenery, she had a strange feeling that this plant was very important.

After Ines returned home, she moved the pot into the house.

When she placed the green plant on the table in the yard, panting heavily, she finally realized that she had actually moved a potted plant herself.

She must be crazy.

Why else would she move a random pot?

Olga came out of the house and saw Ines standing next to a potted plant, panting heavily. She said:

– You are the young mistress of the Dubois family. Moving potted plants is such a simple matter; why not have someone do it for you? Why would you need to do it yourself? Oh dear… that’s…

Before Olga could finish her sentence, she froze, looking at the green plant in disbelief. Her eyes were as wide as saucers.

– Mom, what’s wrong?

Ines asked casually, panting heavily.

– Daughter, tell me, where did you find that plant?

Olga’s voice trembled with excitement. She moved forward quickly and grabbed Ines’ dirty hand.

Ines looked at Olga with surprise. She had always liked to be clean.

– Mom, my hands are always dirty.

– My dear daughter, tell me.

Olga looked at Ines with enthusiasm.

Ines’ gaze fell on the green pot. She asked,

– Mom, what’s wrong?

-What’s wrong? Let me tell you that this is an extremely rare specimen of Suranne Grass. It’s hard to find even in a hundred years!

As Olga said, she was practically jumping with excitement.

Ines gasped in shock. Stunned, she stood frozen in place.

Suranne Grass.

Although she wasn’t a medical student, she still knew a little about high-level herbs.

Three years ago, a mysterious buyer had purchased a stalk of Suranne Grass for fifty million dollars.

Now that three years had passed, rumor had it that the price of Suranne Grass had already increased more than 30 times.

Could Lyana, this villager, really grow Suranne grass?

How was this possible?

Yes, it had to be impossible!

Lyana could not have known that it was Suranne Grass.

– Mom, are you sure? Actually, it’s just an ordinary plant. Maybe it looks like Suranne Grass.

Ines said, frowning.

– Daughter, have you forgotten? I have studied Chinese medicine in the past. How could I be wrong about this medicinal herb?

Jacob, who had just come out of the house, heard everything Olga and Ines said.

Jacob quickly approached and said excitedly,

– Honey, are you sure this is Suranne Grass?

– I swear, it’s definitely Suranne Grass.

Without hesitation, Olga held up three fingers and swore. After that, she looked worriedly at Ines.

– Where exactly does this Suranne Grass come from?

Ines felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She was completely stunned. She had never expected that this was really a priceless pot of Suranne Grass.

At Jacob and Olga’s persistent request, Ines told them everything about her trip to the psychiatric hospital.

This time, it was Jacob and Olga’s turn to be stunned.

– Is this really true?

Olga asked hesitantly.

Ines nodded and said:

– Mom, why would I lie to you? There is still a lot of green in the yard where Lyana lived! Mama, tell me, how would Lyana know how to grow Suranne grass?

Jacob was sitting on a stone stool nearby and said thoughtfully,

– Are you sure it was Lyana who planted it?

Ines nodded.

– Lyana’s doctor said so.

– Then this question will be easier to handle.

The corner of Jacob’s lips turned up as a particular light flashed in his eyes.

Ines looked at her father in confusion, not understanding what he meant.

– Dad, what are you saying?

Seeing Ines like this, Olga could not help but explain with a smile,

– Silly child, you don’t understand. She is your sister and she is a member of the Dubois family. The things she owns will naturally belong to the Dubois family.

Ines looked at Olga with surprise and said doubtfully,

– Mom, are we going to be rich?

Olga gave Ines an affirmative look.

Ines could not help but smile. She said triumphantly,

– That’s great! Then I can buy what I like.

Olga’s smile became a little more daring.

– Our Dubois family has never been very high on the social ladder. Since Lyana is so capable, our family will no longer be afraid of being bullied.

Jacob nodded. Right now, he suddenly felt that Lyana was very easy on the eyes.

– My little Ines, do you remember how many pots of Suranne Grass were in the mental hospital?

Ines thought for a while, then said:

– At the mental hospital, the nurses moved to about seven or eight pots. There were still a lot of potted plants in the yard. I don’t know if there are any left.

– You say she grew a lot of greenery?

Jacob asked impatiently.

– Yes, about 200 square meters’ worth, but I didn’t recognize any of these plants, Ines said.

Jacob turned to Olga and said:

– Hurry up and go to the hospital to take a look. She could have planted many expensive medicinal herbs. Move them all to the house.

Olga nodded her head.

Ines, who was standing to the side, said with approval,

– Father, you must retrieve the Suranne herb that Lyana moved to the Sanchez residence. It is the treasure of our Dubois family. How can you let Vincent Sanchez have it so easily?

Jacob nodded his head in agreement.

– It’s true. It belongs to our family. That miserable traitor is really too shameless.

Suddenly, there was the sound of applause. The few looked over and saw Lyana standing not far away.

– Wonderful. Truly amazing!

Lyana looked at the three of them with a sarcastic expression. This was the first time she had seen someone with such thick skin. She was so disgusted that she felt like throwing up.

As Lyana walked, Olga unconsciously stood in front of Suranne Grass’ pot, blocking Lyana’s line of sight.

Ines clenched her fists nervously and looked at Lyana, her expression wary.

Now that Lyana was the principal of An University, if she wanted to graduate successfully, she would have to get Lyana’s approval. So she had no choice but to tuck her tail between her legs.

Jacob remained calm and composed. Sitting in place, he put on the head of the family tunes.

– Lyana, you’re back. This is a good time. I have something to tell you.

– Of course, but first you have to give me back the Suranne grass.

She couldn’t even be bothered to greet Jacob as her father. Her voice was cold.

When Olga heard Lyana’s words, she immediately jumped and said impatiently,

– What are you saying? The Suranne grass belongs to the Dubois family. How dare you talk about it now? If you get your hands on something good, shouldn’t you know how to bring it home?

– Why should I be embarrassed to mention it?

Lyana raised her eyebrows and her gaze fell on Ines, who was standing next to Olga.

– Ines Dubois is a thief. She stole my things. Why can’t I mention that?

Lyana just couldn’t understand what the three of them were thinking.

Ines had been born after Olga had spent ten agonizing months pregnant. Now, according to Lyana, Ines was a thief. Olga angrily rebuked her,

– What are you talking about? Ines just went to the hospital to get some things from the family. How can you say that she stole

– Something from you?
