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

Chapter 39: Deliberately Making Things Difficult For Her 

Saturday came.

Ayla woke up early, took a shower, and changed into a set of simple casual clothes.

She also tied her hair into a ponytail and didn't put on any makeup.

"Mrs.Clark, are you going out? Today is Saturday,"

Maria asked upon seeing her downstairs.

Ayla didn't have classes on weekends, so she usually slept until she would naturally wake up.

"Maria, I have work today, remember? My manager said a VIP customer has booked us today, so as the assistant, I have to be there,"

Ayla replied with a smile.

Unlike other people, she didn't look troubled or unhappy despite having to work on a weekend.

"Oh, yes, now I remember.But you must eat something before you go.Wait a moment."

Maria then went to the kitchen, heated up the milk, and made a cheeseburger for Ayla.

"Thank you, Maria,"

Ayla said as she took the glass of milk and the cheeseburger from Maria.

She drank up the milk and put the glass down on the table.

"I'm late.I'll just eat this in the car," she said, referring to the cheeseburger in her hand.

While in the car, Ayla ate her cheeseburger bit by bit.

It was a good thing that Maria was thoughtful enough to give her something to eat.

Her manager told her that they would be busy all day today, so she couldn't go to work with an empty stomach.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have the strength to run around taking photos.

"Mrs.Clark, water."

Lyle, Brian's driver, handed her a bottle of water.

"Thank you, Lyle."

She took the bottle of imported mineral water, looked at it, and held it tightly in her hand.

For her, it was such a luxury.

"That's Mr.Clark's favorite mineral water, so I always keep a few bottles in the car,"

Lyle explained when he noticed her hesitation and reluctance.

Ayla nodded and looked at the bottle in her hand again.

It turned out that he had a favorite brand of drinking water too.

She thought that he only liked drinking strong black coffee.

Meanwhile, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling French window, Toby seemed preoccupied.

He had a responsibility, and he had to face it.

There was no escape from it anymore.

Hayden had announced at the anniversary banquet that Toby was getting married to Molly and now was the right time.
