Substitute Bride and Her Husband Who Disappeared

He found out!

He didn't fall asleep. While she was asleep, he unlocked her phone and discovered her secret!

Nancy broke out in a cold sweat. Suddenly, she didn't know what to do. She could only panic and fearfully look at him.

Charlie chuckled and continued to play with Nancy's phone.

"Twins, huh...I never expected that, the Mirren family actually gave me such a big gift. I am curious how you two sisters negotiated it. Do you switch shifts on a daily basis?" "No!"

Nancy clenched her fists tightly, almost biting her lip until it bled.

"Charlie..."

"Just now, you called me darling, didn't you?"

Nancy felt an urge to kill. He already knew the truth. Why did he have to embarrass her like this?

The truth was revealed. When she thought about her father, she wanted to cry. She felt overwhelmed with grievances.

Charlie ignored her reddened eyes and asked coldly, "Who was the one who had a wedding ceremony with me?" Nancy bit her lip, her voice weak and feeble, "It was me."

"In these three years, has Vivian ever stayed here?"

Nancy hurriedly explained for her sister, "She's a pianist, you know. She's very busy, and you aren't here, so..."

Charlie coldly interrupted her, "So, it's always been you?"

Yes, in these three years, Vivian had been traveling all over the country, and she had to coordinate with Vivian's schedule. When Vivian was busy, she would leave. When Vivian finished her performance, she would return to the Firth family's mansion. She was like Vivian's shadow, helping Vivian fulfill her duties as Mrs. Firth.

Charlie suddenly stood up, took the phone and walked to the bedside, looking down at Nancy.

"Call her."

Things had come to this point, and the only solution was to call back Vivian.

Nancy sniffed. She took the phone with trembling hands from Charlie. She found Vivian's number, and called her.

The first time, no one answered.

The second time, no one answered.

A man's cold voice came from above, "Continue!"

Nancy's fingers trembled as she pressed the dial button again.

The third time.

The fourth time.

It wasn't until the tenth time that someone finally answered the phone.

Before Nancy could say anything, Vivian's impatient and angry voice rang out sharply, "Nancy! Are you out of your mind How can you call me so late? You keep calling like you want to kill me! Are you hoping your dad dies sooner?" When Nancy was very young, her parents divorced.

Her mother took her sister and remarried a wealthy businessman. She was left with her poor father to rely on each other.

Four years ago, a car accident left her father in a vegetative state.

Before Nancy graduated, she had to go to school and work to support her father. Although life was hard, Nancy never complained.

Until three years ago, when her vegetative father suddenly disappeared from the hospital, waiting for her in the ward were her mother and sister whom she hadn't seen for many years.

Her mother and sister "kidnapped"her father to make her marry Charlie. For her father's safety, she had no choice but to agree.

Charlie's deep eyes narrowed slightly.

Nancy quickly said, "Vivian, please come back tomorrow, your husband..."

"What are you panicking for? I know he went back to City Nustin. Is he going to sleep with you or what? Nancy, even if he wants to sleep with you, you're the one who takes advantage! It's not important at all. You shouldn't have called me so many times. I am so fed up with you!" Nancy's heart suddenly sank. All the good things she had said for Vivian just now were destroyed at this moment.

"Vivian..."

"Enough! Nancy, I'm not afraid to tell you that Charlie doesn't like women at all. He married me just to pass on the family line. You can be at ease being Mrs. Firth for me. I will take good care of your father. Otherwise, you'll only see his dead body!" With a "pop," the phone was rudely hung up.

But Nancy's heart was in her throat!

Charlie didn't like women?

Could he be gay?

Oh my god, she heard Charlie's secret. Would she be killed to keep it a secret?

Sure enough, as soon as she looked up, she saw Charlie's face show obvious fury.

Nancy was so scared that she threw her phone away. She quickly moved to the side of the bed with her hands. She had no doubt that if she was a little slower, he would strangle her.

However, Charlie just looked at her like that, as if he was considering something.

Under his cold gaze, Nancy clutched the sheets tightly with both hands, feeling extremely uneasy.

"Tomorrow, go with me to get our marriage certificate."

All of a sudden, Charlie opened his mouth.

Nancy was shocked and opened her eyes wide. "But I don't have my sister's ID card..."

"I'm talking about you. Don't you understand?" Charlie's voice was deep and full of chilling intent. "Me?"

Nancy almost fainted. Why did Charlie want to get a marriage certificate with her?

What did he want to do?

"But I'm not Vivian..."

Charlie gave her a cold glance, turned around and walked to the sofa. After sitting down, he took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep drag before placing it on his lips again.

He blew out smoke, "If you don't want to see your father dead, obey my orders."

Nancy was speechless.

Only her mother and sister had threatened her with her father before, but Charlie learned to use the same trick.

These people really knew how to exploit her weaknesses!

However, she wasn't stupid. She understood what Charlie meant. As long as she cooperated with him, he wouldn't expose her as a substitute bride. In that case, her mother and sister wouldn't know that the plan had failed. Her father would be safe too. "Okay, I promise you."

Nancy didn't dare ask any more questions because Charlie didn't look happy. She didn't want to provoke him any further and get herself into even more trouble.

At 10 am the next morning, Nancy and Charlie walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, each of them holding a piece of stamped paper.

Nancy looked down at the marriage certificate in her hand, feeling uneasy.

She was married...

Not only did she have to face Vivian and her mother's threats, but now she also had to deal with Charlie's threats. Her life was truly miserable.

"Vivi."

All of a sudden, a breath blew in her ear. She instinctively wanted to dodge but was pulled into his arms by a big hand.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

She looked up in surprise and met Charlie's suddenly gentle eyes, "What kind of car do you like?" "Huh?"

Nancy was stunned, staring at him.

Charlie laughed softly, "Consider it a wedding gift for you."

Nancy immediately understood it. She was very happy about it. But that word "Vivi" felt like a needle piercing her heart.

She knew that she stole everything from Vivian. Even though she was the one who got married to Charlie and held the marriage certificate, Charlie had no intention of revealing her true identity.

This was the only way to protect her father for now.

But she still felt sad.

Her heart hurt so much that her eyes turned red. She looked at him fiercely and said, "Maserati!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she added two more words, "sports car!"

Since everyone threatened her with her father, why couldn't she, the substitute, ask for more?

Charlie looked at her quietly, without doing anything.

Nancy panicked and wondered if she had asked for too much. But before she could explain herself, his slender fingers lightly brushed against her beautiful nose. His deep voice carried a hint of indulgence, "You have good taste." "Boom!" Nancy felt like a thunderbolt had struck her head and exploded. It was like being struck by lightning!

His tenderness at this moment was even scarier than when he was angry!

His tenderness made her feel a little bit attached to him.

But she knew that everything was fake.

Looking at her reddened eyes, Charlie picked up her little hand and kissed it gently, "I'll order the car. Now let me take you to get dressed up nicely. Vivi, tonight we'll meet my friends. Make sure you have a dazzling debut, as a pianist" Nancy rounded her eyes in shock. Her body stiffened instantly!
