The Substitute Bride Doted by My Billionaire Husband

Marcus was an orphan who had learned to be independent from a young age. By a chance encounter on the street, he met Anabelle, who was just slightly over three years old at the time.

Young Anabelle was petite and thin. She approached him and said, “Big brother, I haven’t eaten in at long time. Can you share a steamed bun with me?”

At that moment, he had two steamed buns and generously gave one to her.

Holding the steamed bun, young Anabelle bowed to him and said in a soft and polite voice, “Thank you, big brother.”

He thought she would eat the steamed bun herself, but Anabelle ran over to her mother and gave the bun to her.

Her mother quickly devoured the bun, not sharing any of it with Anabelle.

At that time, Anabelle and her mother had already been ostracized by Lady Midas, and they had no place in the Royal Capital. They had to sleep on the streets.

In that area, there were many ruffians and hooligans. Despite her young age, Anabelle’s delicate face showed the early signs of a beauty, and some shady and lecherous men would tease her and even touch her face.

He decided to take Anabelle and her mother. Although his house was dilapidated, it provided them a place to stay.

Anabelle was very grateful to him and always called him “big brother.”

Soon, he learned about Anabelle’s background. Due to the illness of the wealthy Miss Lily, she decided to switch lives with Anabelle.

On that day, Anabelle left him to go to the Midas Family and become the shadow of Miss Midas, while her mother fell seriously ill and needed a large sum of money, a seemingly insurmountable obstacle.
