A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

When Lyana came downstairs, she saw Matriarch Sanchez chatting with Lucia.

The two were talking harmoniously. No matter what the Matriarch said, Lucia always carried on the conversation.

Matriarch Sanchez was very fond of Lucia. She felt she was an experienced young woman.

Lyana looked around and saw no one else. Smiling, she sat next to Matriarch Sanchez and asked curiously

– Grandma, didn’t you say there were guests? Why haven’t I seen them?

At that moment, footsteps came from the stairs.

Matriarch Sanchez smiled fondly at the stairs and said,

– Speaking of the devil. Look, he’s not here?

Lyana and Lucia followed Matriarch Sanchez’s gaze.

Lyana was slightly stunned. She hadn’t expected that the special guest Grandma was talking about would be the handsome man she had just met in the bedroom.

Sitting next to it, Lucia couldn’t help but huff.

She had never seen such handsome men in her entire life.

She even saw two at the same time.

One of them must have been Lyana’s husband, who was rumored to be in poor health.

However, the two seemed to be in good spirits. She didn’t know which of them was him.

Lyana looked up at Matriarch Sanchez and saw the love and indulgence in her smiling eyes.

She was slightly stunned. Could this man be the missing young elder master of the Sanchez family, Christian Sanchez?

As she guessed who that person was, the man approached and smiled at Matriarch Sanchez.

– Grandmother.

When Lyana heard the man call her that, she understood instantly. This person was therefore the oldest young master of the Sanchez family.

The Sanchez matriarch nodded in agreement. She smiled at Lyana and said happily

– Lyana, it’s the special guest Grandma told you about.

She looked up at the man and greeted him politely:

– Brother.

When Matriarch Sanchez heard Lyana’s words, she was stunned.

Vincent also frowned.

Lyana was sensitive enough to feel that the atmosphere in the room was a little off. She seemed to have mistaken him for someone else, but her words were like spilled water. It was not possible to take them back.

The charming looking man smiled.

– I’m sorry. This is our first meeting. I accidentally took advantage of my sister-in-law.

When she heard the man’s words, she smiled slightly and spoke to resolve the embarrassment.

– I am still young. How could I take advantage of you by calling you big brother?

Hearing Lyana’s words, the man couldn’t help but stare at her.

This young lady had a high EQ and knew how to talk. His eyes, in particular, were like those of a cunning fox. When she smiled, she looked like the little fox he had raised at home.

– Sister, you are right, said the man smiling.

With a simple sentence, they had temporarily recognized each other as sworn brothers and sisters.

Vincent looked at Lyana with a complicated expression. Why wasn’t Lyana usually so obedient?

Thinking about that, Vincent’s eyes darkened. He looked at Matriarch Sanchez and reminded her

– Grandmother, it’s time to make introductions.

A bright smile appeared on Matriarch Sanchez’s face. She didn’t expect Lyana6 to be in tune with him. She introduced it formally:

– Lyana is the Second Young Master of the Royer family, Liam Royer. You have already met his older brother, William Royer.

When Lyana and Lucia heard Matriarch Sanchez’s words, they were both stunned.

There was another Second Young Master in the Royer family?

They had never heard of it before.

Matriarch Sanchez seemed to know what they were thinking. She explained

– Liam was not healthy when he was young. Like Vincent, he grew up with me, so few people in the outside world know of his existence. It’s normal.

– I see, she said thoughtfully. No wonder Matriarch Sanchez looked at Liam with such sweetness and affection.

No wonder he called Matriarch Sanchez “Grandma” so easily.

Matriarch Sanchez smiled at Lyana and said:

– There’s something else you didn’t expect.

Lyana looked at Matriarch Sanchez in surprise .

Lyana’s beautiful fox eyes revealed a trace of confusion.

– What is this ?

– Do you still remember the violin I gave you?

Matriarch Sanchez asked softly, smiling at Lyana.

She nodded.

– Yes.

– Liam made this violin himself.

Matriarch Sanchez glanced at Liam and gave him a loving smile.

When Lyana heard this, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes. She turned to look at Liam’s clear, delicate hands.

It was hard to imagine that this exquisite violin was made by Him.

Just from Liam’s appearance, he looked like a wealthy second-generation heir. Also, Liam’s hands didn’t look like they had been used for woodworking at all.

Vincent raised his wrist to look at the time. He had other things to do at the banquet, and he didn’t have much time to waste. He looked up at Matriarch Sanchez and said helplessly

– Grandma, if you keep keeping us going, when can we have lunch?

– Yes yes.

Matriarch Sanchez covered her mouth and laughed.

Vincent glanced at Liam, who was standing next to him. His gaze finally landed on Lyana’s face and he said

– Let me introduce you.

Lyana was a little stunned. Hadn’t Grandmother introduced them just now?

– It’s Mr. Timothy.

When Vincent said that, it was as if he was saying the weather was fine today. His voice was extremely calm.

When Lyana heard Vincent’s words, the smile on her face froze. She looked at Liam in disbelief.

He ? Mr. Timothy?

Lyana’s heart skipped a beat.

Lucia’s mouth dropped open in shock!

Lyana and Lucia looked at each other.

Lyana felt like she was in a dream. She tried to calm down, but her voice still revealed her excitement.

– Is it really Mr. Timothy?

Seeing Lyana like this, Vincent’s gaze gradually became cold. He had known from the start that she loved Mr. Timothy, but he hadn’t expected her to have such a reaction. She had actually lost her temper.

It was the first time he had seen Lyana lose her temper.

Lyana could read disdain in Vincent’s eyes. At the same time, she was certain that Liam was Mr. Timothy.

To be honest, his current state was indeed quite embarrassing, especially for Vincent.

But what does that have to do with anything?

It was Mr. Timothy!

His idol !

How could she not be excited?

It was a chance to hunt his idol!

Lyana understood now why Grandma had said that she absolutely wanted to meet this distinguished guest.

She couldn’t control her emotions anymore.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Since she couldn’t control them, she didn’t try.

Lyana’s beautiful fox eyes were shining. She asked directly,

– M. Timothy, can I have your autograph?

Liam’s gaze met Lyana’s sparkling eyes. He couldn’t help but think of the little fox he had raised by secretly eating meat.

Seeing that Liam was quiet, Lyana thought he didn’t want to stick out a finger. She asked cautiously:

– Just one. How’s it going?

Liam gasped.

In such circumstances, who could resist it?

However, before Lyana could say anything, Vincent had already approached her. Holding on to Lyana’s shoulder, he walked into the dining room and said:

– I am hungry now. Let’s eat.

With that, he turned to look at Liam and said:

– Sign your name on his violin.

– All right.

Vincent forcefully led Lyana towards the dining room. She shifted her shoulders uncomfortably and turned to look at Vincent, saying unhappily,

– Put your hand down quickly. I can walk by myself.

Only then did he let go of Lyana. In a low voice, he said coldly:

– Mrs. Sanchez, I think you need to relearn how to manage your expressions.
