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

Chapter 109: Dissatisfaction With Wenny

Lucas stirred his coffee as he looked at Molly.

"If you want to live in peace, you need to overwhelm Toby with love. Do you understand?"

 Loving someone constituted more than just being nice to each other.

It involved sacrifices and commitments that would last a lifetime.

"Lucas, do you still think about Ayla? Are you still in love with her?"

She knew that Lucas had fallen in love with Ayla two years ago.

When Ayla had disappeared, he had also mysteriously disappeared.

He only reappeared recently.

Lucas nodded, "Yes! Very much so!"

His tone betrayed helplessness.

He would never stop loving her.

"Lucas, have you been searching for her over the past two years?"

She couldn't comprehend how he could possibly love someone who always gave him a cold shoulder.

"Let's change the topic.When you are free, let's invite Toby to join us for dinner," Lucas said, sipping his coffee.

"Okay, I'll get back to you on that," Molly said with a smile.

"I'm attending a dinner party with him this evening."

After leaving the cafe, Lucas headed for the office building where Ayla was working.

Brian had neglected the drug business in the past two years and this gave Tatum a chance to revive his business.

It was obvious that Brian's only objective now was to defeat Tatum.

Lucas had warned Tatum many a time not to be reckless, but he was ruled by his greed and risked everything.

 Seated in her office, Ayla was concentrating so deeply on her painting that she lost track of time.

Ellie, who was a responsible assistant, just waited in silence for instruction from her.

Lucas entered with some coffee and tiramisu he had bought from the bakery.

He noticed Ellie sitting at her own desk with a helpless, aggrieved expression on her face.
