A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

“For my Sugar’s sake?”

At the age of Matriarch Royer, how could she not say that Julie deliberately disagreed with Lyana?

The affairs of the younger generation had nothing to do with her, and she didn’t want to know.

However, she would never allow Julie to make things difficult for Lyana by deliberately using her eldest granddaughter.

“I’m really doing this for the sake of the eldest daughter in your family.

Julie explained weakly.

“If you really want the best for her, why did you say things like jealousy and sadness?”

Matriarch Royer said viciously.

Julie was so frightened that a shiver ran down her spine. She quickly shook her head and said regretfully:

‘Grandmother Royer, I didn’t mean that. I did not want…

“Great… Didn’t the Matriarch just repeat what you just said?”

Lyana really didn’t want to see Julie spout nonsense, so she cut Julie’s words off.

Maybe it was because she was too anxious, but she almost called Matriarch Royer Grandma.

Fortunately, she changed her words in time.

Thinking about it, Lyana breathed a sigh of relief. If she had really called Matriarch Royer Grandma, these people might have been suspicious.

Although she barely said the word, Matriarch Royer still heard Lyana’s words. A trace of surprise shone in his eyes. His gaze fell on Lyana’s familiar face, and a strange emotion gradually formed in his heart.

If she’s not mistaken, she wanted to call her “grandma” just now…

The others didn’t notice Lyana’s slip. Even Julie didn’t notice anything.

She couldn’t wait to explain to Matriarch Royer.

– Grandmother Royer, I really didn’t know that water hyacinth had such a beautiful meaning. What I have read on the Internet previously may not be complete. I am very sorry.

Matriarch Royer looked coldly at Julie, giving off a dignified aura.

“Julie, if you’re here to send blessings to my eldest granddaughter today, you’re welcome here. Otherwise, please leave immediately.

Julie was amazed. She bit her lip and looked helplessly at Muriel.

Muriel hesitated for a moment and took a step forward to help Julie out of this situation.

– Grandmother, Julie didn’t do it on purpose. Previously, she did it for the sake of her sister. I don’t think Sister will mind.

Seeing that Matriarch Royer’s expression had softened a bit, Muriel continued:

– Today is the anniversary of Sister’s death. I think she really wants to see our family get along better.

When Julie heard Muriel’s words, she looked grateful and nodded vigorously.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

Muriel was obedient. Matriarch Royer was also very fond of Muriel. She had lived so long, so she naturally understood what she meant.

Muriel and Julie were both adopted children. Moreover, since they were in similar situations, they understood each other.

Either way, Julie was still a member of the Sanchez family. Forget this problem!

Matriarch Royer gave Julie a meaningful look. She only hoped she said those words only for Sugar’s sake.

However, this will not happen again.

Matriarch Royer raised her hand and waved it gently. She sighed and said,

“Forget it, this case is over.

She really couldn’t tell it was a misunderstanding. If she said that, she would probably hurt Lyana’s heart.

After all, Lyana had worked hard to embroider the blessing bag. This blessed bag must have cost him a lot of effort.

When Julie heard Matriarch Royer’s words, her heart, which was in her throat, slowly relaxed.

She hastened to say obediently:

‘Thank you, Grandmother Royer, for not worrying about it.

With this, Julie prepared to offer incense to the eldest daughter of the Royer family.

Vincent’s expression instantly turned cold. He hastily stopped Julie and said:

– Wait.

The smile on Julie’s face gradually froze. She turned to look at Vincent, her eyes flickering. She had a bad feeling and asked:

“Brother Vincent, what’s wrong?”

When he heard Julie’s words, his eyebrows arched. His expression became serious and he asked:

“Have you forgotten your identity again?”

Julie blinked in confusion.

“You forgot the reminder she gave you.

Julie’s face was pale. She bit her lip. She felt like a slap had landed on her face.

Vincent meant that she was no longer allowed to call him Brother Vincent.

Julie’s heart felt like it had been stabbed by a sharp blade.

Vincent ignored Julie’s pitiful look. His voice was cold.

“Do you need me to repeat myself?”

Julie’s eyes instantly turned red, and tears welled up in her eyes. She cried pitifully,

“Mr.. Mr. Sanchez…

At that moment, she could feel her heart, which was riddled with holes, shatter into countless pieces that fell to the ground.

William glanced at Julie, then his gaze fell on Vincent’s face again. He nodded approvingly.

At this moment, Lyam was stunned.

He had always lived with the Sanchez family in the past. He had the most contact with Vincent.

He knew that the second brother had an aversion to women and didn’t like interacting with them.

He was already very shocked when he saw the second brother squeezing Sugar’s waist.

However, he had never expected Second Brother, who kept a low profile, to protect Sugar in public.

Could it be that Second Brother really fell in love with Sugar?

Realizing this, Lyam’s eyes were filled with smiles.

Muriel was so shocked that her heart was about to pop out of her mouth.

She often went to the Sanchez residence to play and knew Vincent well. In the past, her brothers had never allowed her to interact with him. They even said that Vincent had an aversion to women. If she approached him, it would be bad if Vincent got sick.

However, she didn’t expect Vincent to be so close to Lyana. Lyana was only his private doctor.

Muriel looked into Vincent’s eyes. She was quite sure he had a strong desire to protect Lyana.

Vincent spoke again.

– Apologize.

When Julie heard Vincent’s words, her eyes widened involuntarily. She looked at Vincent in disbelief.

Grandmother Royer had already stopped pursuing her mistakes. Why was Vincent still…

“Apologize to her now.

Julie’s pupils instantly dilated. She hadn’t expected him to be so persistent.

– Oh…

She had just exclaimed when she was suddenly frightened by Vincent’s cold gaze. She hastened to correct herself.

“Mr. Sanchez, I really didn’t do it on purpose this time.

When Vincent heard Julie’s words, he raised his eyebrows slightly and narrowed his eyes. If looks could kill, Julie would have died a million times over.

“That means you did it on purpose.

When Lyam heard Vincent’s words, he casually added:

– Since you did it on purpose, excuse yourself.

William glanced at Lyam, who was not far away. In the past, Sugar had the best relationship with Lyam. This time, he was the first person to come to Sugar’s defense. Sugar would then have a better impression of Lyam.

It wouldn’t have worked. He was the first to find his sister. He must have left a very good impression on her.

“If you don’t apologize, get out,” William said coldly.

Julie didn’t expect William, Lyam and Vincent to force her to apologize.

For a moment, his face went pale.

She felt like she had been cut into pieces. Even that couldn’t ease the pain in his heart.

It was clearly fair between her and Lyana.

She could understand why Vincent was helping Lyana.

It was because she was his wife. He valued his reputation, he didn’t want to embarrass Lyana.

But why were William and Lyam also helping Lyana?

These two clearly had nothing to do with Lyana.

Julie felt the air around her becoming more and more suffocating, and she couldn’t breathe.

Muriel, who was standing to the side, was also completely stunned. She didn’t expect her brothers to help Lyana.

She had never received such favor from her brothers.

Alexia stood there. She was already a little upset that Julie had said the hyacinth was no good. When she thought Julie seemed to be looking for trouble on purpose, she said:

“Sister Julie, didn’t you hear what my eldest brother, my second brother and Brother Vincent said?” Hurry up and apologize to Sister Lyana. Why are you still here?

When she heard Alexia’s words, her face instantly went pale. She didn’t expect Alexia to come to Lyana’s defense.

For what ?

Everyone was biased towards Lyana.

Julie thought Alexia was the easiest to approach. She looked at Alexia ruefully and said apologetically:

– I just saw the hyacinth flower symbolism on the internet. I’m just telling the truth. I really didn’t target her on purpose.
