The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride

Chapter 1

It was a hot summer day. The downpour seemed to make the climate more humid. The bus was teeming with people.

Janet Lind got out of the bus with her luggage. As she looked around, her gaze landed on Bernie Lind — he was standing at the exit of the bus station. He looked much older now, and his hair had turned grey. “Dad,” she called, biting her lip.

“Come on, let’s go home. Your mom has cooked all your favorite food because you’re coming back.” Bernie smiled, the corner of his eyes creasing with wrinkles. He took the suitcase from her hand and put it into the trunk.

Janet’s breathing faltered.

She knew Bernie was kind and enthusiastic to her today because he and Fiona were expecting her to marry in place of her sister.

The car drove through the bustling downtown and entered a luxurious villa community.

Seacisco had changed a lot in the past few years.

Bernie opened the door and entered the villa with Janet’s suitcase.
