A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

It was the first time she had seen Julie so hysterical.

Sadness, anger and grief mixed together.

The pain on Julie’s face was even greater than when she was kicked out of the Sanchez family by Grandma Sanchez.

Lyana was slightly stunned. At that moment, she felt that she might have misunderstood Julie.

Muriel, who was standing nearby, also had the impression that perhaps everyone had misunderstood Julie. Anyway, she had grown up in the Sanchez family since she was young. She had good grades, good looks and a good figure. She was the child of another family in the eyes of many parents, and also a goddess in the eyes of her peers.

Throughout this time, Julie has always been as gentle as water. Whatever happened, she valued her dignity and her culture.

How could such an exceptional Julie do such a vicious thing?

Besides, Julie may have really suffered this time, which is why she was so angry.

Muriel looked down and remembered what had happened in the Buddhist room.

In fact, Julie was right. She had also secretly investigated the symbolism of Hyacinth flowers.

The meaning of these three colors was indeed not good.

Lyana’s words were also a bit exaggerated.

However, when Lyana said she was reincarnated, she hit the nail on the head. Everyone hoped that the eldest daughter of the Royer family could be reborn as soon as possible and not suffer underground.

Lyana looked back and her gaze fell on the perfume in Julie’s hand. Was this bottle of perfume very important to Julie?

It was also the first time Matriarch Royer saw Julie lose her temper. His gaze fell on the perfume bottle in Julie’s hand. In a daze, he felt like he had seen that bottle of perfume before.

Suddenly, a thought crossed his mind. Matriarch Royer’s expression softened instantly. She looked at Julie gently and said:

“That bottle of perfume was left by your mother, wasn’t it?”

When Julie heard Matriarch Royer’s words, the tears in her eyes fell uncontrollably. Her voice was a bit muffled as she looked at Matriarch Royer with pity.

‘I didn’t expect Grandmother Royer to still remember that. This bottle of perfume was my mother’s heirloom.

Hearing Julie’s words, Matriarch Royer remembered what had happened previously and said:

– This bottle of perfume was originally a birthday present from my old friend to your mother. At the time, it was I who accompanied her to buy it. At the time, your mother was very fond of lilies. We found many perfumeries before finding this fresh and elegant perfume. I really didn’t expect you to still be bringing that bottle with you all these years.

When Julie heard Matriarch Sanchez’s words, she lowered her gaze slightly and looked at the perfume in her palm. Tears fell from the corner of her eyes and settled on the perfume bottle, as if she missed her late mother.

She hurriedly raised her hand and carefully wiped away the tears on the perfume bottle. She said softly,

– Mom died early. It’s all he has left. It’s my only consolation.

She thought back to the past. If her mother had still been alive then, she would have been better off than now.

But there weren’t so many ifs in this world.

Julie held the perfume tightly in her hand, tears streaming down her face in pain.

Seeing Julie in this state, Lyana glanced at the perfume in her hand.

Suddenly she smelled the scent of lilies.

Lyana’s gaze fell on Julie’s bag.

If that bottle of perfume was what Julie cared about the most, then Julie would definitely be hesitant to use it.

Lyana approached Julie. She noticed that Julie’s perfume smelled of jasmine, and the perfume in her bag smelled of lily.

Things poured out of the bag only meant one thing.

Julie didn’t use the perfume she was wearing today.

She had only brought her mother’s things today.

If so, even if there was no perfume in Julie’s bag, it must not be the perfume of lilies.

If Julie had really used her mother’s perfume today, why was she still wearing a different smelling perfume?

Lyana stared at Julie. She looked at the perfume in her hand with a cherished expression, as if that bottle of perfume was her most prized possession.

However, she wouldn’t let Julie get away with it just because she was pretending to be pitiful.

She had the feeling that she was behind it all.

Besides, she was certain that Julie had placed the sulfuric acid in that bottle of perfume.

William, Lyam and Vincent, who were standing off to the side, were also staring at the pile of cosmetics. They all thought Julie was behind it, but they couldn’t find any proof now.

Julie wept pitifully.

Muriel and Julie had a good relationship. At that moment, she looked at Julie, who was crying pitifully, and comforted her.

“Okay, don’t be sad. If you really didn’t do that, we won’t falsely accuse you.

In fact, Muriel also hoped that Julie was not behind all this.

It was she who received Julie at the Royer residence today. If anything happened to Julie, she wouldn’t look good.

Lyana’s gaze fell on the perfume bottle in Julie’s hand.

Was this perfume really a relic of that of Julie’s mother?

At the thought, Lyana’s eyes were filled with shock. She pursed her lips and remained silent.

Under the comfort of Muriel, Julie felt much better. She squeezed the perfume bottle in her hand and looked at Lyana with watery eyes. She asked :

– Lyana, you searched my bag without distinguishing between good and evil today. You have already violated my privacy. I don’t care about any of this, but I can’t stand you wanting to touch my mom’s stuff anymore. Shouldn’t you apologize to me and my mother?

Lyana’s gaze fell on Julie’s oval face. In fact, she was very beautiful.

She had willowy eyebrows, a small, neat nose, and a cherry-shaped mouth. Julie looked like a pretty girl from a small family, and there was a hint of weakness and calm in her eyes.

At this moment, Julie’s eyes were filled with tears, and she looked pitiful.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

If she had just met Julie, she might have been fooled by her expression.

However, she had known Julie for a long time. She knew she was a person who wouldn’t stop until she reached her goal.

However, she had never expected Julie to be so heartless.

In fact, she hoped she was wrong.

But thinking about it, she remembered that Julie had sworn on her late mother.

In his opinion, she had long since lost her principles. How do you expect someone without principles to have a background?

Lyana looked down with a complicated expression.

Seeing Lyana like that, Julie thought she had already recognized her defeat. Her eyes turned slightly red and she said ruefully:

“As long as you apologize to me and my mother, I won’t pursue anything else.

Julie had clearly pretended to be a very magnanimous person.

Everyone’s eyes fell on Lyana’s face.

Vincent gave off a cold aura, his eyes were mischievous.

When Lyana heard Julie’s words, her gaze instantly turned cold. She looked at him without expression.

Julie met Lyana’s gaze and had a bad feeling, but she pretended to be calm all the same.

She sniffed and asked in a sobbing tone

“Don’t you think you’ve already gone too far today?” Are you going to be stubborn again and not apologize to me and my mother?

Lyana stood there calmly, her beautiful fox eyes turning cold. She enunciated every word clearly.

“I only apologize to people.

Hearing Lyana’s words, Julie’s face instantly turned pale. She asked :

– What do you mean ? Are you saying my mom doesn’t deserve your apology?

“I just don’t think you’re worthy.

Lyana said expressionlessly.

Julie’s face turned red with anger. She bit her lip and said for a long time:

– Lyana, I tolerated you time and time again, but you push your luck.

Lyana chuckled and said:

“Don’t you feel that the scent of the lilies is even more evident?”

When Julie hears Lyana’s words, her heart starts racing. She said nervously:

– So what ? There is a garden not far away, and the scent of the flowers is more and more evident. It’s normal.

– But there are no lilies in this garden, said Lyana calmly.

“Besides, the scent of those lilies is a little pungent now.

When everyone heard Lyana’s words, they realized that the scent of the lilies was indeed too strong.
