The Substitute Bride: Making Memories Of Us (Lois Stone)

Chapter 129: He Was Disgusted With Her Filth 

Ayla sauntered towards the sofa and sat down gently.

Turning to the man, she asked, "Mr.Clark, do you still plan on spending the night here?"

He had been using her sofa as his bed for days now and it seemed like he was in no rush to leave her alone.

As expected, she hadn't been getting enough sleep knowing he was in the same house as her.

She was acutely aware of his strong presence and it was making her uneasy, so she'd do her best to drive him away.

"Do you want me to sleep on this sofa or on your bed?"

Brian teased, a playful smirk forming on his full lips.

The sofa was too small for him but he didn't mind cramming his body into it.

He didn't even push to sleep beside her, as much as he wanted to.

Was she still thinking of throwing him out of her apartment? Ayla's answer to his question was to shoot daggers at him.She turned on her heel and stomped back to her bedroom.

He could hear the faint click of the lock once the door slammed shut.

Brian knowingly smiled and just shook his head at her response.

It was typical of Ayla to react that way, so it didn't come as a surprise to him.

‘She will feel comfortable around me eventually and by then, maybe she'd be the same as she was before, ' he thought.Brian knew how she'd grown close to Lucas over the years but his dark secrets were bound to be revealed at some point.

Even if it would hurt Ayla, she deserved to know what kind of person Lucas was.

Meanwhile, Lucas hurriedly came back to the hotel after Haley called him.

"What's wrong, Haley? Why did you get sick so suddenly?" he asked while trying to control his rising irritation.

Although Lucas was reluctant to go out of his way for her, his heart softened when he saw Haley lying on the bed.

It was evident on her face that she was not feeling well.

Her cheeks were unusually warm to the touch, a clear indication of having fever.

"I don't know what's wrong with me.Maybe this fever was caused by something I've eaten.Don't worry yourself too much though.I've already taken some medicine," she reasoned out in her small soft voice.

In truth, Haley purposely ate something she was allergic to.

She didn't want Lucas to be with another woman and this was her way of making him stay with her.
