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

Brian glared at the disheveled woman in front of him.

"Do you think you have a say in this?"

Brian still couldn't understand why was she pretending to be innocent? 

"I know this is not up to me to decide anything, but you can't do this to me."

Ayla felt nauseous as the effect of alcohol kicked in.

Her stomach twisted as she leaned against the wall.

"Then what do you want? Are you not satisfied with one man? Do you want several men at one time? Huh?" Brian gritted his teeth.

He was now frustrated with her.

She was the only one who dared to touch his tolerance limit.She was testing his patience over and over.

"I can do anything for you, but I don't want to stay here.I will do other jobs and make money to repay you."

He just wanted money, didn't he? Then he should not care how she made money.

"Mr.Clark!"

Anna opened her mouth.

She looked at the stubborn woman named Arlene and wondered what if she was scheming a plan to escape.

But why was Brian so furious with her? Brian always remained calm in situations like this.

But now he was bothered by this woman's condition, maybe a little concerned too.

"Let me do something about it!"

Anna held Brian's arm and led him away from the scene.

"Mr.Clark!"

Ayla mumbled his name before collapsing on the ground.

She watched them leave arm in arm, as the nausea she had been suppressing hit her suddenly, making her throw up.

Jaime frowned, then said, "You better listen to Mr.Clark."

He put his coat on her shoulder and helped her up.

Ayla thanked him quietly.

Jaime watched her staggering away.

She finally got rid of those men.

She didn't have to entertain the guests of the club anymore.

Anna assigned her in the kitchen.

She helped in washing the bowls, dishes and cups.

Every day she washed so many dishes that her hands became rough and her skin started to peel off.
