Maria found Ayla in the parking lot and brought her back to her room.She held Ayla by her shoulder and comforted her.

"Mrs.Clark, please lie down for a while.I'll get you some food." Ayla nodded.

"Thank you." Her voice sounded so weak, and it was not only from the drink she'd had.It was because she was too depressed and grieved and had lost all her enthusiasm.

After that party, things never got better.Ayla fell seriously ill.

Over half a month passed until her condition was better.

All the while she stayed locked in the villa.

Besides, Brian disappeared soon after that night and hadn't returned home yet.

However, it was better for her to live here alone than to face him.

The doctor who was treating her, had advised her to get rid of the depression she was suffering from.

Otherwise she would end up with incurable depression.

But how could she stop her depression? She had lost her everything.Even her enthusiasm to live.She was now just waiting for death.

Was she so desperate to die? She glanced at her phone on the bedside table and pressed the power on button.

As soon as she did so, dozens of messages kept coming in and all of them were from Toby.

She didn't want to read them.

If she could, she would have deleted them all.But she could not.She still had feelings for Toby.

Even though they were separated from each other for several years, they grew up together and were close to each other.

She had been waiting for him all these years when they were apart, because he was her only hope.He was her future.But now everything was meaningless.

She reluctantly opened the messages and read them.

It turned out he had found out how she had become Brian's substitute bride.

She had no choice but to take Arlene's place.

Her phone suddenly buzzed.

She read the number but couldn't recognize it.

"Hello?" Ayla softly said.

"Lala, finally! I have been trying to catch you on the phone for so long.You got me so worried.How are you doing? Where are you now? How's everything? I want to see you!" Toby bombarded her with a long chain of questions.

"Toby, I'm fine."

She was really fine.
