A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

Chapter 274



Lyana was stunned by William’s reaction.

She had always thought her brother was like a bright moon in the night sky, cold and inaccessible. However, she didn’t expect that after getting angry, her brother would turn out completely different.

Claire tried her best to breathe. She tried to pull William’s hand away, but William’s grip grew stronger and stronger. Gradually, she couldn’t breathe.

– Ahem…

Claire was speechless now.

She couldn’t believe that William hadn’t listened to a single word she had said to him before.

Lyana was a liar.

Lyana was the one who had done something wrong.

Why was Brother William so hard on her?

Claire gradually rolled her eyes and struggled less. The moment she nearly died from lack of oxygen, William threw her to the ground.

– Ah!

Claire screamed, panting, and tears flowed uncontrollably.

It hurts. It hurt so much. That bottom part was hurting her so badly that she could barely breathe.

Claire looked down and saw that her pants were already stained with blood.

She looked at William with tears streaming down her face and said pleadingly

– Save me, save me…

William’s eyes were cold, without any warmth.

– I gave you a way out before.

Claire’s blood stained the floor. She was shaking as she looked at William.

Lyana frowned slightly. She could see that Claire was really scared this time.

At this time, she bit her lip. She saw no warmth in William’s black eyes. She knew that William really wanted her dead.

Claire shakes her head gently and crawls closer to William. She begs bitterly:

– Brother William, save me, save me…

– I already gave you a chance, but you keep crossing my baseline. Since you’re so brave, I’ll let you be brave for once! You don’t need to go back to An City anymore.

At that time, William called ”

– Eddie.

He pushed open the door and entered. When he saw Claire on the floor, his face was expressionless, without a trace of pity.

– Young master.

William looked at Eddy without blinking and said

– Take it out and clean it.

– Yes.

Claire wanted to struggle again, but she was in too much pain.

Eddy carried Claire like a rag.

It was only then that Claire clearly understood that Brother William really didn’t want her to live anymore. They really couldn’t go back to the past.

Eddy rushed to get someone to clean up the blood in the room. The entire room instantly became clean, as if nothing had happened.

Lyana was slightly taken aback. She didn’t feel sorry for Claire at all, because Claire deserved it. If she hadn’t caused trouble, she wouldn’t have suffered so miserably.

However, Lyana was worried that Claire’s death would affect her brother. After all, everyone in An City knew that Claire had come here with her brother.

– Brother.

William seemed to have understood what Lyana was about to say. He interrupted him and said:

– If we take her back to An City, it will only bring us more trouble. If she doesn’t cause trouble, she will naturally be safe. However, she is restless. She can only blame herself.

William knew about the relationship between the Silva family and the Royer family, so he gave Claire a chance. She just wasn’t ready to take it.

– Brother, what about the Silva family? Lyana looked at William with concern.

When William heard Lyana’s words, his voice was cold as he said,

– She was the one who wanted to kill you first, and she almost caused my death in Ghost City. She should have died at the hands of Alexander Walker. If it wasn’t for me, you wouldn’t have brought her back. Now we let Claire go back to the night she was injured. We’re just going to choose not to save her again.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Lyana didn’t expect her brother, whom she had always believed to be sweet, to have such a cold and ruthless side.

Besides, his brother was right. Claire should have died in the Ghost City a long time ago.

– If she comes to her senses and finds out who you are, she’ll spread the word and put you in danger.

At this time, William hid the coldness in his eyes, and his voice became warm.

– Honey, I already told you that I wouldn’t put you in danger anymore.

When Lyana heard William’s words, her eyes couldn’t help but turn red. It felt so good to be protected.

– Brother, you are so good to me. In the future, I might not be able to control myself. I could become arrogant after being pampered.

William reached out and gently patted Lyana’s nose. He smiled fondly and said softly:

– My sister has the right.

Lyana smiled embarrassed. She helped William to lie down on the bed and asked curiously:

– Brother, Claire has just brought a lot of evidence. Why didn’t you suspect me?

Seeing the bright smile on Lyana’s face, William couldn’t help but swallow. He said softly:

– Stupid child, why should I suspect you? Everything is my fault. I lost you by accident. I didn’t protect you enough and I didn’t find you sooner.

Lyana looked at William in confusion.

– Did you realize we were both related when you were in the operating room? William asked.

Lyana was slightly taken aback, but she quickly reacted and nodded.

– All right.

– That’s why you gave them money to keep quiet. If you hadn’t done that, the news of our relationship could have spread a long time ago. At that point, you would have become a target.

William paused and continued:

– If I had woken up then, I would have made the same decision.

Lyana’s worry instantly dissipated. Her eyes were filled with joy and she said softly:

– Brother, so you got it all figured out.

– You’ve worked so hard to survive so far. Every step you take is very careful.

William held Lyana’s hand and said warmly:

– However, you don’t need to be so careful in the future. With me around, I will certainly protect you well.

Lyana’s heart warmed and her eyes reddened. So Brother already knew everything.

– If you weren’t my biological sister, with your accomplishments, how could you insist on being my sister? This is all my fault. If I hadn’t brought Claire, how could you have suffered?

Hearing William’s words, Lyana held his hand tightly.

– Brother, if you hadn’t brought her here and been through all this, I wouldn’t have the chance to recognize you. I know with you around, you sure wouldn’t let me suffer.

When Lyana came to the end of her sentence, her voice cracked. She was really too easily touched.

She remembered the situation when she returned to the Dubois family. At that time, everyone treated her coldly and she received no love.

So that was the real family. Real family put her first.

– Thank you my brother.

– Actually, I should be thanking you.

As soon as William finished speaking, the door opened.

Lyana and William looked over and saw Farah nervously standing in the doorway of the room. His expression was complicated. After thinking for a long time, she entered.

Farah pursed her lips and gathered her courage. She explained:

– M-Mr. Royer, Katie is a person who keeps her promises, so she didn’t say anything. However, I didn’t take any money, so I can tell you the truth. In fact, Doctor Dubois did not give you a blood transfusion because during your operation, there was hemolysis. It was only then that I realized she was related to you by blood.
