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

Chapter 83: Lucas Was Hurt For Ayla 

"There's nothing in this world that I want to do but can't do."

How dare this woman defend Lucas? He walked away without even casting her a glance.

Ayla propped herself up.

'What am I supposed to do?' In school, running into Lucas was inevitable.

The following day, Ayla took the initiative to meet with him.

"You rarely make an appointment with me.Does this mean you're agreeing to be my girlfriend?"

Lucas flashed her a bright smile.His pleasant expression made it difficult for her to respond.

After a long silence, Ayla indifferently said, "We can't see each other anymore."

Lucas' smile quickly disappeared.

"Are you joking?"

He stared at her intently.

"I'm not," she answered sternly.

The reason she did this was because she didn't want anyone else to suffer what Toby went through because of her.

And so, the best way to prevent that was to stop seeing each other.

"Is it because Brian won't allow you to hang out with me?"

Lucas couldn't imagine that Ayla would be this obedient.Perhaps she was forced into doing this? 

"The reason doesn't matter." She shook her head in dismissal.

"But what if I refuse?" Lucas was persistent.

"Mr.Collins, we can't even be friends anymore," said Ayla.

Since Brian had said something like that, it only meant that he was going to do whatever he pleased.

"I want to be more than just friends with you."

The expression on Lucas' face implied that he was determined to marry her.

Ayla looked him in the eye and thought, '’Lucas, you stubborn fool.”

"I'm not as good a woman as you think I am.Ask Mrs.Brown, she should know that.I'm a vixen who entices men, and I've slept with many men.Knowing that, would you still want to marry a woman like me?"

Ayla degraded herself in front of him.

She knew that she wasn't a woman worthy of Lucas' love.

"And so what? I don't care about any of that!"
