The Substitute Bride Doted by My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1018 The two men’s eyes met

From the first time he met North, Mallory had been acutely aware of something.

Just now in the hospital room, hearing the noise outside, she quickly guessed something. Every time he came into contact with outsiders and every time he came into contact with North, she knew that she could get the maximum information possible under limited conditions.

Just now, before he had time to let anyone handle the hospital records, she had already done it.

She is only 19 years old, looking weak and harmless but actually, she has a delicate heart.

Axel didn’t mean to hide it, of course, he wouldn’t admit it. He raised his thin lips and asked without answering: “Why do you want to help me?”

“You saved me. This time I will repay you. In the future, we’ll clear things up.” Mallory said coldly. Axel curled his thin lips and said: “In order to save me, you used yourself as bait and took the initiative to hand yourself over to Brooks. Do you think this is a good thing?”

Mallory raised her head, her autumn eyes fell on his handsome and arrogant face, revealing a bit of cunning like a little fox, “This is an emergency measure that can really save you quickly, isn’t it? I am your woman, Mr. Lewis. Even if a crazy man like Brooks wanted me, you would still protect me, right?”

Axel heard her teasing, saw her smile, her autumn eyes curved like a crescent moon, extremely beautiful.

Besides his sister North, Axel had to admit that Mallory was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen.

The bottom line is that Mallory is not only beautiful but also very interesting.

Axel has been used to being alone for so many years. Now suddenly there was such a little girl next to him. Although his original intention was to protect the Hall family’s daughter, she stayed quietly by his

side and began to open up about his past. He was really impressed by how she could match him in an unexpected situation.

Axel raised his eyebrows, saying: “So, although I get my sister back, in the end, I still have to take care of myself. Is that what you mean?”

Mallory nodded: “Yes. That’s right. Young Master Lewis, don’t change the subject. Let’s talk. Why does Brooks want to catch you?”

As she spoke, Mallory tilted her head, her autumn eyes widened, carrying the light of wisdom: “I will make a bold guess. In fact, Mr. Lewis and Brooks have always been suspicious of your background. My father also lived in the Lewis family and worked as a driver for decades, but eventually became an undercover agent. They were all afraid that there would be another my father, so Brooks always kept an eye on you. As expected, there were Brooks’ men around you. Otherwise, this time he wouldn’t have such a sensitive nose to sniff you and then come for you.”

“As for your background and past, it definitely has something to do with North. It’s actually very simple. As long as someone searches for North, they can find you this way.”

“Young Master Lewis, am I right?” Mallory raised her head, her bright eyes looking at Axel. Axel was no longer surprised. He looked at Mallory appreciatively, smiled, and said: “You are so smart, so you must understand that our conversation will end here. Don’t be curious about me and don’t go hunting North because behind the truth is not necessarily something you can afford.”

“Your father has spent his whole life telling you this truth. The less you know, the safer you are.

ly kills the cat. Perhaps behind the truth, there is an abyss, and you will be sucked in if careless.”

Mallory looked at Axel in front of her. He revealed a side that she did not know, which was filled with traces of time. A 34-year-old man can no longer be considered young. Suddenly, it was as if there was

a book hidden under his cold and silent eyebrows, in which were written many stories about people who crossed mountains and rivers.

At this time, Mallory saw the shadow of her father in Axel.

Her father’s profession was always lonely. They walked alone in the dark, no one understood, full of thorns and blood.

But her father’s career is the greatest because they always follow their beliefs.

Perhaps realizing that her eyes had lingered on his handsome face for too long, Mallory quickly withdrew her gaze and bowed her head.

At this time, Axel raised his hand to touch her head: “Mallory, as long as I am safe, you are safe too, so you must be obedient. Your being with me is only temporary because I have sent someone to contact your mother.”

“As long as you get in touch with her, I will change your identity, erase all your past, and send you back to her. You will have a bright future and become a normal girl like your father expected, growing up safe and healthy.”

Mallory felt his large palm stroking her head, something her father often did.

Her father was only forty years old when he was alive. If he were still alive, he would probably be Axel’s brother. Anyway, Axel was too old, 34 years old, and she was only 19 years old.

Coming to him suddenly was an accident for both him and her, and it was fate and just a phase in life. She will return to her mother and begin a new journey in life.

Mallory looked up at Axe, asking: “Are we very close?”

Axel was stunned: “What?”

She pushed his big hand away: “If you’re not close to me, don’t touch me in the future!”

Axel, “…”

At this moment, the voice of a medical staff suddenly rang in his ear: “Mr. Dominos, you’re back.”

Mr. Dominos…

Raven…

Hearing this name, Axel raised his head and looked forward.

The silver Maybach parked in the parking lot, Raven opened the driver’s door and stepped out, holding a paper bag in his hand, containing handmade wild candy apples bought for North.

Perhaps recognizing the gaze here, Raven raised his head, his cold black eyes looking over. Axel and Raven looked at each other for a moment.

Raven’s expression didn’t change at all. He wore a neat black suit, his handsome face wore elegant gold-framed glasses, and every move had the indifferent look of an upper-class man.

Their eyes met. A few seconds later, Raven gently turned away.

He didn’t seem to recognize Axel, entering the hospital at a steady pace.

Axel looked at Raven’s back, his eyes dark, and it was unknown what he was thinking.

Mallory was already sensitive to the strange atmosphere between the two men. At this moment, she turned her head and saw Brooks’ eyes also falling on Raven. It was unknown what he was saying.

Mallory frowned. At this moment, she smelled fresh blood. She raised her head to look at Axel, saying, “It’s not good to stay here for too long. Something will happen if you stay too long. Let’s leave and return to Australia tomorrow.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
