All Chapters of I'm Not A Substitute Wife: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

Cassandra stared at her brother’s former lover, who looked truly arrogant and annoying. The woman in front of her seemed unwilling to yield. Therefore, when someone won over her, Michelle would try to destroy them and would not care if she herself were ruined.“Laura is a good woman. I prefer to see my brother with her than with you, who have such bad manners and character! I’m amazed — you’ve fallen so low, with not even a shred of remorse, and you still want to keep harming Laura?” Cassandra said.Michelle laughed. The sly woman looked at Cassandra with hatred, because she compared her to Laura, her half-sister from the same father, Beckett. “What Laura has should be mine! Laura stole it from me — should I just accept that? William, your brother, that man should have been my husband! As for the wealth, I don’t care if Laura gets it, but… that woman is not worthy of having the man I desire, and making him hers! Laura is greedy; she wants to take all the happiness I planned long ago,

Laura was shocked; her emotions were in turmoil — afraid, sad, and guilty because once again she had to risk the lives of those around her, the people who loved her, and those loved by William Anderson’s wife.It all began because Laura wanted to hold on to her marriage with William. Laura believed marriage is for a lifetime; if it could be preserved, she must endure and strive to win William’s love.But that conviction and life principle became the root of many problems, because of Michelle’s unwillingness. Michelle had once given Laura a path to be with William, a new life that promised to be far better — an escape from a family that had always looked down on her, a family that never expected her to exist.Could Laura calmly leave all her problems to William?The woman looked restless and could not sit still, while William’s sister and her mother-in-law had to face directly the person who wanted them dead. For now, however, Laura was heavily guarded by Dominic and William’s men.“I

Meanwhile, Serena thought she was safe, that she had escaped all the trouble—especially Michelle and, of course, the Anderson family. But she was wrong. At the airport, Serena was intercepted by several men sent by William and was immediately taken into custody.Serena looked terrified and tried to run, but she couldn’t.“Miss, please come with us, or we’ll embarrass you right here,” one of William’s men said, giving Serena a chance to cooperate so it wouldn’t look like she was being arrested in a sudden public chase.“Why are you taking me?” Serena asked, trying to resist. Of course she didn’t want to be drawn deeper into Michelle’s affairs.“You know the answer—about Miss Cassandra!” the man replied.Serena’s heart pounded with fear. Could Michelle have done something unforgivable? Serena was furious that Michelle hadn’t protected her. She didn’t want to be arrested.Still, she could not fight them. Serena had no choice but to go with them, hoping she would not be implicated legally

“Cassandra… sweetheart, are you alright?” Elara’s voice trembled the moment she arrived at the place where Cassandra was being held captive.A mother seeing her daughter weak and helpless, with bruises marking her face, brought Elara to tears. But Cassandra, though still shaken at first to see her mother standing before her with bound hands, managed to smile.“I’m fine, but why did you come here, Mother?” Cassandra asked as tears streamed down her cheeks.“I was worried. I couldn’t stay calm just sitting at home,” Elara replied.Michelle, watching the emotional reunion, grew irritated. To her, the scene was sickening. “Enough. I’ve had enough of this pathetic display. But aren’t you happy? You finally get to be together again.”“Michelle, let my mother go! Isn’t it enough that you have me? Don’t involve her!” Cassandra shouted angrily at Michelle, furious that her mother had been dragged into this trap meant for Laura.“What is it that you truly want, Michelle? Your parents have alrea

“Mother...” Laura looked at her mother-in-law with sad eyes, tied to a chair, with Cassandra beside her, glaring at her angrily. Cassandra must hate Laura even more now, she thought.However, Cassandra's hatred was not something she needed to think about right now, but rather the safety of both of them. Laura now really didn't care if she was hated by William's younger sister or even the entire Anderson family, including William himself. Because for her, Laura deserved it, because she had endangered them, who had been dragged into her problems with the Brown family.“Stupid child!” Elara muttered.Elara couldn't understand why Laura had gone to Michelle, after she had tried so hard to keep Laura safe from Michelle's cunning plans. Because of her and Cassandra, all the plans had been ruined, and Laura was now in the hands of Michelle, who was dangerous to Laura.“You're finally here, my dear sister,” Michelle greeted her with a sly smile.Michelle had asked several people to stand guar
