A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

Vincent was usually a thoughtful person. Ordinary people couldn’t tell what he was thinking, but Vincent’s second personality was very innocent. He was unconsciously forgetting all the bad things.

Although Lyana knew that Vicki might not know what happened to Vincent, she couldn’t help but ask:

– How did you get these injuries?

Vincent replied honestly,

– I don’t know.

It was only then that Lyana gave up. It seemed like he didn’t know anything at all.

Lyana just wanted Vincent to rest well. She said softly:

– Vincent, I’m going to help you sit down. You have to dry your hair. Don’t catch a cold yet.

Vincent frowned slightly, and a trace of confusion crossed his eyes. He asked,

– Lyana, who is Vincent?

Lyana was left speechless.

Seeing Lyana in this state, Vincent asked sadly:

– Lyana, do you have other children?

What a child…

It was only then that Lyana realized that Vincent’s split personality seemed to yearn for love and care.

Could it be that Vincent was abused when he was young?

Vicki was obedient and seemed very insecure.

Vincent’s clear eyes were fixed on Lyana. Seeing that she was silent, her eyes gradually darkened. He said in a low voice:

– Lyana, don’t you want to take care of Vicki because you have Vincent?

Lyana looked at Vincent’s serious expression and didn’t know what to say.

It was clearly Vincent.

Vincent did not get an answer from Lyana. He lowered his head and frowned as he endured the pain in his back.

Lyana explained softly,

– Vicky. Your nickname is Vicki, and your name is Vincent.

When Vincent heard Lyana say this, he was very resistant.

– My name is not Vincent.

Lyana was slightly taken aback.

It was only then that she realized she couldn’t let Vicki know about Vincent. If that happened, it was very likely that he would oust the first personality.

If this continued, Vincent would truly become a Vicki.

After thinking, Lyana could only lie. She smiled and said:

– I gave you the name of Vincent. If you don’t like her, I’ll always call you Vicki.

Hearing Lyana’s words, he instantly lifted his spirits.

– Yes, Lyana. My name is Vicki.

He revealed an innocent and cute smile. It was an expression that Vincent would never show.

She felt dizzy.

– Lyana.

Lyana came to her senses and smiled.

– I’ll help you dry your hair first. It’s not good to sleep with wet hair.

– All right.

Lyana helped Vincent sit up. Seeing that her face was furrowed in pain, she suddenly remembered something Vincent had said to her in the past.

She no longer needed to hold back.

Lyana smiled at Vincent and said softly:

– Vicki, you are yourself. You are unique in this world. If you’re in pain, you can tell me. You don’t need to hold back when you’re with me.

Hearing Lyana’s soft voice, Vicki’s heart warmed.

If only his mother had said the same to him before.

So he wasn’t his brother’s vessel.

At that thought, his eyes widened involuntarily, and a host of questions popped into his mind.

What is a ship?

A brother ?

Mom ?

Since when does he have a family?

Thinking about it, his head hurt. Strange fragments crossed his mind, but he couldn’t remember anything.

Seeing that Vincent’s expression was not good, Lyana looked at him with concern.

– Vicky.

After a long time, Vincent returned to normal. He looked at Lyana innocently.

– Lyana, is there really no need to hold back?

– Of course.

It was fine as long as Vincent didn’t lose control.

If Vincent didn’t hold back, she wouldn’t have a good life.

Vincent was a bit difficult to deal with!

Lyana looked at Vincent gently and said:

– I’ll get a hair dryer now and help you dry it.

– GOOD.

Lyana got up and headed for the bathroom. Soon she brought the hairdryer and carefully dried Vincent’s hair.

Vincent sat down quietly, feeling a little dizzy. He enjoyed this feeling very much. It was very warm and comfortable.

After drying Vincent’s hair, Lyana asked him to change.

After changing, Vincent laid lazily on the bed, allowing Lyana to feed him.

He was staring intently at Lyana, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.

It was good to have Lyana around.

At this thought, Vincent closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Vincent felt better, but Lyana was very worried, because Vincent had a fever now.

His whole body was hot and his face was already flushed. He seemed even weaker.

Seeing that Vincent had fallen asleep, Lyana was about to go get her medicine and got up.

Vincent almost instinctively grabbed her hand. His eyes were still closed, and his voice was a bit hoarse, but there was a hint of sweetness in it.

– Lyana, you have no right to leave.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

That cute little voice had a hint of dominance and ferocity.

Seeing Vincent like that, Lyana couldn’t help but smile.

Unexpectedly, Vincent was still a bit ill.

There is something wrong.

To be precise, Vicki was a little sick.

Lyana sat down on the edge of the bed again. Looking at the sleeping Vincent, she gently comforted him,

– I understand. I will not leave now. I will stay by your side.

He seemed to have heard what Lyana had said. He groaned in a daze and fell completely asleep.

When Lyana realized he was completely asleep, she carefully retracted her hand.

Vincent’s fever was very high now. What if his brain was damaged?

Now she can only use Physical Cooling.

Lyana walks into the bathroom and lays a wet towel on Vincent’s forehead.

Then, Lyana wiped Vincent’s limbs with a damp towel.

When Lyana is finished, she realizes that it is getting late. The competition would start in half an hour.

Lyana breathed a sigh of relief when she realized Vincent’s fever had subsided a bit.

When everything was done, Lyana started eating.

Before leaving, she helped Vincent change his cold towel before leaving with his bag.

More than half an hour after Lyana left, Vincent finally woke up. He looked at the time on the wall. It was now three-twenty.

Vincent moved, and the towel on his forehead fell off.

It looks like Lyana has made a return trip.

He remembered taking a bath in the bathroom before, but he couldn’t remember anything after that.

Vaguely, he seemed to have had a dream. In this dream, he seemed to have become like when he was young.

He even dreamed of Lyana.

Lyana wasn’t as cold as before. On the contrary, she treated him kindly and even helped him dry his hair.

Lyana even affectionately called her Vicki.

Lyana even said something to him.

Vicki, you are yourself. You are unique in this world. If you’re hurt, you can say so. With me, you don’t have to hold back.

Vincent swallowed and frowned slightly. His eyes darkened and his breathing became irregular.

He didn’t like that feeling in his dream and tried his best not to think about the situation in his dream.

Vincent sat up and his gaze inadvertently fell on the food on the nightstand.

This meal was exactly the same as the one he had eaten in his dream.

For a moment, Vincent stood stunned.

At the same time, in the competition hall, everyone was seriously choosing their raw materials, hoping that they could spend as little money as possible to get more and better raw materials.

This level was even more intense than the previous one.
