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

Chapter 31: They Were All Unscrupulous People 

"Don't go.I'll take you out of here, away from this damned place!"

Before Ayla could say anything, Toby pulled her into his arms once again.He couldn't bear to see his beloved woman suffer like this.

She didn't even answer her phone after she disappeared.

It turned out that Brian had kept her strictly under house arrest.But Ayla shook her head.

She couldn't leave at all.

If she ran away, it wouldn't be just she who would suffer the consequences.

She should be grateful that she wasn't sexually assaulted or beaten black and blue by Brian's subordinates.

"Toby, you should go back.I want to stay here.Go back to Miss Smith! You'll be happy with her!"

'’I will just be a burden to you.I'll only bring you trouble, ‘' she thought deep down.

Brian must have known that Toby was there that day, so he asked for her to bring wine to Toby on purpose.

"Lala!"

Toby watched as she withdrew from his grip with sorrowful eyes.

He knew that she felt completely helpless about her situation.

"Mr.Brown."

Seeing that Toby was about to reach for Ayla again, Fred stopped him.

"You can leave now.I have something to discuss with her."

‘'Do I still need to care about the consequences now?'’ Toby thought with determination.

Brian wasn't planning on seeing Toby that night.He just wanted to let Toby know that he was in full control of everything.

"Lala, tell me the truth.Did he force you to do this? How could he let you do such a thing?"

Toby held her hands in his and gently caressed them.

Ayla quickly withdrew her hands, replying, "Toby, you misunderstood everything.He's not forcing me to do this.I'm fine."

"You think you're fine? Look at yourself! You've lost so much weight and you look exhausted.Seeing you like this reminded me of the little girl who was constantly mistreated by the Woodsen family!"
