Substitute Bride and Her Husband Who Disappeared

"Maybe it was the first time I saw you at the wedding, or maybe it was when I saw you that night after returning to the country. When I found out you weren't Vivian, I wasn't actually angry. I just wanted to find a way to keep you by my side..." Nancy's eyes widened as she listened to his words. Something in her heart seemed to completely overturn in that instant.

"No... No..."

Perhaps due to nervousness, her voice trembled. "I thought... you liked Vivian. How could..."

"Humph..."

Charlie shook his head lightly. Their foreheads rubbed against each other, making Nancy's heart flutter. It was as if an electric current surged through her body, causing every hair on her body to stand on end.

"I didn't know you were Nancy before, and I always thought you were Vivian. I have to admit that with Vivian's background and her identity as a pianist, she is indeed suitable to be Mrs. Firth. But before, I had only seen one of her performances and never actually met her in person. So how could I like her?"

Nancy forcefully bit her lip and fell silent, listening quietly to Charlie's gentle voice.

"Originally, my plan was that if she could endure the loneliness and behave as Mrs. Firth for three years, I would treat her well though I had no feelings for her. But on the first day I came back, you gave me a surprise. And every day since then, the more I stay with you, the more I am drawn to you."

Nancy suddenly realized that the card he gave her earlier must have been prepared in advance because he thought it was Vivian's birthday. Those things she thought could confirm that he liked Vivian were just her own speculations. At least, he had never said that he liked Vivian in front of her.

She suddenly remembered a few days ago when Charlie felt down because he found out about Vivian and Alexander's affair. She suddenly placed her hands on his chest and forcefully pushed him away.

With a flushed face and wide eyes, she pointed at him angrily. "So, Charlie, you were pretending to be heartbroken the other day?!"

Charlie blinked quickly. He didn't

He looked innocent. "No, Nan, you didn't understand my heart, so I had no choice but to resort to extreme measures to make you throw yourself at me."

She threw herself at him?!

Nancy was speechless!

She never expected that her kindness and concern would become tools for him to use!This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

"Charlie, you've taken advantage of me so much. I'll beat you to death!"

With that, Nancy swung her little fists without hesitation towards Charlie. But how could Charlie just. sit there and let her hit him? He

jumped up, grabbed her hands, and pressed them firmly against the bed. Then, when Nancy wasn't looking, hereached for her waist.

remember you're ticklish."

"Ah..."

Nancy shouted and then burst into laughter. "Hahaha... Charlie, let me go... Hahaha..."

Instead of letting go, Charlie continued to tickle her. "You're laughing so happily. You're lying!"
