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

Brian and Anna left the Design Department together, and when they left, the department returned to its lively state.

"Linda, you're no match for Ayla and Anna.Mr.Clark obviously came to see Ayla, and the one he took with him is Miss Anna."

The person speaking was obviously shaming Linda, and it definitely didn't make her happy.She scoffed and returned to her desk.

'Who does Ayla think she is? There's no way I'll ever lose to her!’ 

Upon their arrival at Brian's office, Brian and Anna sat facing each other.

"Brian, is Ayla okay?"

"So you already know?"

He figured that it was highly likely that she had asked Hank about it.Since Jaime wasn't here, Brian's go-to guy in handling things was Hank.

"I asked Hank."

Anna stared directly into Brian's eyes, and said, "Don't get mad at Hank.It's my fault that things went down like this."

She had been in the entertainment club for so many years.

And through that experience, she had seen many things that made her think this wasn't an accident.

Turning his gaze towards the window indifferently, Brian said, "I see.You can go back to work now.Tomorrow, you'll get even busier.I don't want something like this to happen again next week."

Anna wasn't the only one he was addressing, he was also speaking to himself.

Fortunately, Ayla didn't get injured seriously this time.But next time she might not be so lucky.

‘No! It definitely won't happen again! “

As she sat alone in the apartment, Ayla started to feel bored.

The second she left her room, the servant called out to her, "Miss Woodsen, would you like something to eat or drink? I'll fetch it for you."

Ayla sat on the sofa.

"No, it's fine.I just wanted to go out for a walk."

"But, Miss Woodsen, you're still injured.You should probably stay in bed to recuperate," the servant said as she approached her.

It took Ayla a while before she decided to go back to her bedroom without saying a word.

Not long after she returned, her phone started buzzing.
