CHAPTER 80

Lila

Olivia and I were still chatting absent-mindedly when I heard the front door slip open, and footsteps pounded on the marble floors.

“Lila?” Lucien's voice called, making me still. I put my hands over my ears, closing my eyes and opening them again. It had to be a dream, right?

I wanted to slap the smirk that was on Olivia's face away. She was humming a hearty tone. “Seems like these two men would kill to have you,” she said in a sing song tone.

I didn't want to care about any

  • SUBSTITUTE BRIDE I WANT YOU BACK LILA    JUST IN MY HEAD

    CHAPTER 132Lila “Lila!” her mom screamed and I sat down on one of the chairs like I still owned the place. There was nothing that they could actually tell me, that would have made me get of there. I was there to walk, and I wasn't going to leave. I was just going to pass time while trying to get important information. At least tuntil the rest results that I needed, and the record tape was out. My whole skin ached to be with Lucien at that moment, but I couldn't just stand up and leave like it was nothing. As soon as I heard footfalls, I forced myself to sit upright. Lily's eyebrows shot up immediately she saw me. “What are you doing here?” She asked immediately. I crossed on leg on the other, as I smiled up at her. “I don't know, I'm here to see my lover's ex,” I said, shrugging. The words stung, but she managed to hide it. That didn't make her head back upstairs. Instead, she came to join me, taking a seat in front of me. Her mom watched our exchange like she was scared that I

  • SUBSTITUTE BRIDE I WANT YOU BACK LILA    THE INVITE

    CHAPTER 131LilaThere was no way I was just going to sit around and wait for Lucien to heal. I needed to find the answer to everything. I didn't know what I was thinking when I headed back to Lucien's house. I knew that there had to be something that would give whoever poisoned him, away. My hands were on my waist as I looked around the house. I had already searched every single chair, every bedroom upstairs, looking for anything that I could find. But there was nothing there. I'd there was anything in those rooms, they belonged to me and the kids. I couldn't help but realize how nice it was, that my things were there in Lucien's house all over again. It seemed unlikely that a house like that didn't have a CCTV camera. Olivia was smart enough to install countless cameras at our house. Nothing wrong can happen there without us knowing. I ran my hands through the walls and the paintings, when my hand bumped into something. I stopped in my tracks, running my hands through the dog pa

  • SUBSTITUTE BRIDE I WANT YOU BACK LILA    OUT OF MY HANDS

    CHAPTER 127LilaI felt slightly bad, leaving Lucien alone in the house. But I had to go, after preparing breakfast for him. By the time I got home, the kids were still asleep. The way Olivia wrapped her arms around me when I got home, told me that she missed me more than she said in the hundreds of texts that she had sent. “How are you?” I asked, breathing in the scent of her hair. “I missed you more than anything. And so did the kids. Is everything okay at home? With Lucien and you?” She asked, making me smile. “It's still hard to believe that Victoria and I are related. Or that Rachel and I were switched at the hospital. It's a lot, but I still have to head to work and show up for my brand.”“Of course,” she whispered. “I'll be here for the gist when you get back.”I nodded as her, finally detangling myself from her embrace as I headed upstairs. I took my clothes off, smiling at the memory at everything that happened at Lucien's place. For a second, I was thinking about moving i

  • SUBSTITUTE BRIDE I WANT YOU BACK LILA    JUST TO MYSELF

    CHAPTER 130LilaI didn't need a genie to tell me that they didn't want me there. Worse if all, they were shocked that I even managed to get out of jail somehow. “W-what are you doing here?” Lily asked, and I cocked an eyebrow at her. “What do you mean? I just went home to get my clothes changed.” I looked down at my dress. It was one of the most expensive things in my wardrobe. It was getting harder to keep things together, but Lucien needed me. I didn't have to sit down at his bedside, crying. Even he wouldn't want that. I needed to prove myself innocent first. She quickly shook her head. “No,” she stuttered. “The police arrested you. I was here. They took you to jail.”I smiled. It was a dangerous slow smile. “I guess that's one of the perks of being a Cornelli. You can relate to that, can you?”As if on cue, Lily's mom, Lucien's mom, and Rachel filed out of the hospital waed. Light was still with Lucien, and I thanked him mentally. “What is she doing here? She should be in ja

  • SUBSTITUTE BRIDE I WANT YOU BACK LILA    GLAD TO SEE HER

    CHAPTER 129LilyI knew that I was not needed there at the hospital, but nobody could bring themselves to say it. After all, I played a huge part in getting Lila arrested. The person's eye that was fixed on me was Lucien's mother. It was sad enough that the both of us couldn't be related for long enough. To think that she had once preferred me to Lila. I was sure that she was regretting her decision. And I honestly didn't give two bits about her. I looked back at Lucien, lying on the bed, barely breathing. His hands were at his side, and his skin was pale. I tried as hard as I could, not to smile. That should tell him not to mess with me. Not in this life, not in the next. “The baby needs you to wake up,” I managed to say, rubbing mynhands against my stomach in a sympathetic manner. Lucien's mother was at my side immediately, snapping just as I wanted her to. “Don't you dare say that. You can't try to manipulate my child into accepting whatever bastard you've brought.”“You can't

    CHAPTER 128LilaThe officers in plain uniforms walked in, with handcuffs in their hands. I listened as they told me the last words I thought I would ever get to hear, directed towards me. “You're under arrest. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed to you." I stood, frozen as my hands were cuffed right in front of me. I didn't even need to be cuffed from behind. I didn't even have the tendency to run away. I looked over at Light and Dante for help. Even they looked as shocked as I was. “You can't just arrest her. She's not guilty of anything!” Light and Dante said at the same time, but they wer practically barrelled to the side by the police as I was pushed out of the hospital room. “You don't have to push me,” I said, looking back at the police officer. I tried everything that I could, to look as calm and collected as I cou

    CHAPTER 37Whose Kids?LilaThere was a certain kind of pride that surrounded me as I walked into the hotel with my kids’ fingers entangled in mine. They were being so good so far, and I couldn't help but be glad. “You can take a separate room,” I said as I turned to Hannah. “I'll handle the kids.
