All Chapters of Her Substitute Groom: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Chapter 81'I told you to never show your face to me ever again! You are nothing but a disgrace to my family' Tears streamed down Connor's cheeks as he sped down the driveway recklessly without the fear of getting involved in an accident. Maybe dying would do him more good. Besides, he already lost everything. His family's love and his woman, so what was the point of living?The sound of his ringing phone caught his attention, so he pulled over at the side of the road and reached for the phone. He swiped the answer button when he saw that the caller was his best friend."Hey, man! How could you stand me up at the company today? I told you I had things to deal with and yet you never showed up?" His friend's angry voice thundered from the other end."It hurts, Khan... It hurts," Those were the only words Connor could utter as he rested his head on the steering wheel and more tears streamed down his cheeks. He whimpered like a newborn abandoned by his parents, but the only difference was

Chapter 83Claire POVI sat in the backseat of Christian's car as he drove us to wherever our apartment was."How was the trip?" He asked, breaking the silence that had taken over the atmosphere, and I nodded."It was fine," I replied to him bluntly, and I could bet he glanced at me through the rearview mirror."Hmm," I heard him hum, but I didn't bother to look at him as I looked out through the window. I had so many things going on in my mind and getting distracted by him was the last thing I wanted.I had no idea how long we'd been on the road, but the car stopped moving and I was forced to come back to reality, and I realized that we were in the compound of a beautiful bungalow mansion. My jaw dropped to the ground because there was no way this was a student house. I mean, it was too beautiful for students."We are here," I was already out of the car before he said those words. He stepped out of the car too."It's my Dad's house here where he comes for vacation. He rarely comes he

Chapter 85"Are you going to continue like this, Connor? You are really not going to stop?" Chase's voice resonated in the room, filled with anger as he glared down at Connor who didn't seem like he gave a damn. The ground was littered with cigarette ash and butts and he didn't seem like he was going to stop even though he was on the eighth stick."I'm talking to you, Connor. You are driving me nuts and I can't take this shit anymore. Are you seriously going to be like this? You are going to get yourself killed at this rate," Chase spoke again as he snatched the cigarette from him and threw it on the ground. He further matched on it, putting out the fire."Say something to me, Connor. You can't keep being like this," Chase went to sit on the bed with him, but he stood wordlessly and walked out of the room without sparing Chase another glance, and he sighed."Where the hell do you think you are going, Connor?" He sighed when he stepped out of the house and found Khan standing in front

Chapter 87Janice POVI couldn't hold back my tears, so I let them all out. Recalling the pain in Connor's eyes earlier only made me feel guilty. He must have thought that everything was my fault, but I deserved all the blame, anyway."Boss is coming," I heard the stupid guard that was assigned to my doorpost speak from outside, and I scoffed angrily. Seeing Carl was only going to make things worse for me, but it seemed like as long as I stayed under this roof, then I was bound to see him every damn day.A few seconds later, the door opened and he walked inside without even knocking. He looked earthly handsome as usual. If there was one thing I would never deny, then it was the fact that good looks seem to run in the family of Hughes."Hey, babe," He smiled as he counted his steps to the bed and sat with me, a lovely smile displayed on his face."I heard what happened at the mall. I'm proud of you, sweetheart," He smiled, revealing his teeth. I just sat and stared back at him wordless

Chapter 89Janice POV"Your fiancee is really nice, sis," Jeff uttered, and I scoffed silently. Nice, indeed.We couldn't talk yesterday because Carl was all over them acting like the gentleman he never was. It was supposed to be a beautiful morning, but no day would ever be beautiful for as long as I remained under this roof."Where is Mom and Dad?" I ignored him and asked instead."In their room," He replied to me, and I left him in his room and left to go meet my parents. Carl was generous enough to have given them a room each and made sure that they felt at home.I walked down the walkway that led to my parents' supposed room, and when I arrived, I knocked on the door and the door opened almost immediately, revealing Mom in her ever-cheerful smile."It's you, darling? Come in," She left the door open for me, and I walked inside."Thank you," I walked inside and met Dad seated on the bed. He smiled as soon as he saw me. It has really been long since we last saw each other, and I ha
