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

Chapter 48: His Words Touched Her Heart 

Ayla squatted down and picked up the pieces of broken glass carefully.

However, she still cut her finger.

She hissed and bit her lower lip as she saw the red blood starting to ooze out.

The wound was a bit deep, and it must be painful.

But much to her surprise, she seemed not to feel the pain at all.

Maybe it was because her heart was hurting more.

The pain of seeing Toby being married to another woman outweighed the pain caused by her wounded finger.

The crowd just watched her in a daze.

Perhaps they didn't expect her to do such a thing.

Brian just looked at her with his cold eyes.

Lucas kept staring at her with curiosity in his eyes.

And Toby could only look at her with concern, fighting the urge to come over to her.

Finally, Hayden recovered from the shock.

He stepped forward, called the waiter, and said, "Clean this up."

He then squatted down and asked her, "Are you okay?"

Looking at the blood still oozing from her finger, he held her up and said, "Come with me.Let me clean your wound and bandage it."

Ayla shook her head.

"It's all right, Mr.Smith.Don't bother.It's just a small cut."

Brian's eyes were emitting a very cold aura that could freeze people to death.

She knew it wasn't a good sign, so she didn't want to cause any more trouble.

Even if he didn't say a word, she could understand what he was thinking.

It was strange.

But her heart seemed so close to him that it could feel him.

Despite his being cold and heartless, she still couldn't help paying attention to him.

Perhaps she was really destined to be with him, and she could never escape from his control.

Brian suddenly took Ayla's hand from Hayden and pulled her out of the banquet hall.

In front of so many people, he didn't even bother to explain.

Well, he had always been egotistical after all.

And it was because he was Brian Clark.

Ayla's wrist felt sore because of his grip, but she didn't even complain.

She quietly followed him, staggering on her high heels, almost tumbling down.

On their way back to the villa, their car was galloping at an astonishing speed.

She would be a liar if she said she was not scared.
