My Substitute Wife Is a Bigwig (Lily Brooks and Loid Laurier)

The coom’s temperature gradually rose. The atmosphere felt a bit strange. Lily gazed at Loid, her fair face gradually flushing 

It was Lily’s first time being so near Loid. His features were finely shaped with clear lines. His deep eyes, high nose, cold lips, and stray hair falling over his cheek made him look captivating 

Lily stared blankly, lost in her thoughts. Only then did she notice he was burning up. 

His body always radiated a comforting warmth, and Lily cherished their time together. After all, she was often chilly, and he always provided her with the warmth she needed. 

But his body had never been this hot before. She smiled softly as she gazed at Lold. 

“Loid, I’m still a child.” 

She reclined halfway, her soft hair cascading around her. Her clear eyes sparkded mischievously, nut aloof but somewhat flirtatious. 

Loid’s eyes narrowed as he gripped her hand, his voice dry. “Why tease me then? I’m a man,” 

“Wasn’t it you who carried me into your room?” Laly smiled faintly, looking even more charming in the sunlight. 

Even though she had fainted last night, she wasn’t completely unconscious. She knew Loid had been with her all night and holding her hand to keep her warm and comfortable. 

She didn’t blame Loid. She just wanted to tease him because she had never seen him blush before. 

He was speechless. “I did it to take care of you,” he said, hoping Lily wouldn’t misunderstand his intentions 

Lily smiled and sat up. “I know. I was just joking.” 

Loid sighed with relief, and his body started to cool down. 

Lily glanced at the time. “It’s 8:00 am already? 

“Yeah,” Loid said as he sat up. Although he looked calm, his face was still warm. He looked at Lily: “Your classmates are still waiting for you” 

It was past 6:00 am. when Shaun arrived. Hearing the noise, Loid texted Shaun, telling him not to disturb Lily’s rest 

But Shaun texted back saying the students refused to leave and insisted on waiting for Lily to wake up. 

Lily didn’t say anything else. She simply opened the door and went downstairs, Lold followed closely behind. 

Laid instructed the chef to prepare extra for breakfast, knowing Lily would be accompanied by Anya and others. After they finished eating, Lily took them to school. 

Ember Creek High School 

As second period ended, Sean looked where Lily and Anya usually sat, confused. 

“Strange.. Why aren’t Lily and Anya here? Did something happen?” NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

lan was also puzzled. “Maybe their parents scolded them yesterday?” 

According to Lily, it was her mother–in–law who attended the parent–teacher conference 

Could it be that her mother–in–law seemed nice but scolded Lily at home because she was embarrassed by Lily’s grades? 

“Impossible. It’s Lily, You know how she is. Who could scold her?” Sean shrugged. “Besides, Anya hasn’t shown up either. She couldn’t have been scolded by her parents.” “True,“lan nodded. “Let me give Lily a call..” 

Before he finished, the classroom door was kicked open. Tan looked up and saw Lily walking in, looking angry.
