A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

Chapter 416



Alexia frowned slightly, her eyes filled with surprise. She said :

“But Sister Lyana also embroidered a bag for my sister with a good heart. You can’t slander her without thinking.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

At that time, Alexia remembered that during class at med school, Julie deliberately incited a few female students to target Lyana.

She wasn’t an idiot. She knew very well that Julie was also aiming at Lyana voluntarily this time. She asked :

“You carelessly denied the fruits of others’ hard work. Have you ever thought about the harm that others have suffered? Sometimes you can’t pretend none of this happened just because you said you didn’t do it on purpose. It is unfair to the people who have been injured.

William and Lyam looked at Alexia proudly.

Sugar and Alexia were both good girls who knew right from wrong.

When Lyana heard Alexia’s words, she was a little touched.

Anyway, Alexia was still that kind and upright young woman.

Lyana gave Alexia a grateful look.

After that, she looked away and looked at Julie. She was waiting for Julie to apologize to her.

She had now become a thorn in everyone’s side.

She knew in her heart that if she didn’t apologize, she wouldn’t be able to stay in An City anymore.

Julie looked up at Lyana, then lowered her gaze. His eyes were filled with hate, but his voice was as soft as ever.

– I’m sorry… I misunderstood you. I really didn’t do it on purpose. I apologize for what I just said.

– It’s good, replied Lyana impassively.

Julie was slightly stunned. The hatred in his eyes was like a surging river, endless.

She didn’t expect someone as arrogant as Lyana to accept her apology.

Seeing Julie’s indignant expression, Lyana knew that this matter had already angered Julie.

She clenched her fists involuntarily. After a long moment, she looked up at Matriarch Royer, her eyes returning to their usual softness.

“Grandmother Royer, may I offer your eldest granddaughter a stick of incense?”

She suppressed the anger in her heart. Anyway, she had to make Lyana suffer today.

Matriarch Royer looked at Julie and hesitated for a moment before nodding.

– Go ahead.

When she heard Matriarch Royer’s words, she took the incense aside and walked towards the eldest daughter of the Royer family. She bowed respectfully three times.

After bowing, she inserted the incense in her hand into the incense burner of the eldest daughter of the Royer family.

After doing all this, she silently retreated to a corner, but she didn’t leave immediately.

Nobody cared about Julie anymore, because she was just an unimportant person.

Alexia handed the blessing bag to Lyana. Lyana walked over to the urn and hung the blessing bag there with a complicated expression.

She didn’t know what girl’s ashes were in that urn, or how much pain that girl had suffered while she was alive. The only thing she was sure of was that this girl was as pitiful as she was.

She was definitely going to investigate the whole incident and make these people pay.

She would never let these despicable people off the hook.

At this moment, a drop of liquid suddenly escaped from his blessing bag.

The drop of liquid flowed directly onto the ballot box.

Everyone looked at the blessing bag in surprise, not understanding what had happened.

Alexia stepped forward, her eyes filled with confusion. Perplexed, she asked:

“Strange, why is there water in this blessing bag?”

As Alexia spoke, she was about to wipe the liquid off the urn.

When Alexia’s hand was only a centimeter from the urn, Lyana grabbed Alexia’s arm and pulled it back.

– Not moving.

His voice was urgent, hard and nervous.

Alexia looked at Lyana in surprise. As she was about to ask, she saw Lyana staring at the liquid that was dripping from the blessing bag, frowning.

Could this liquid be very dangerous?

With this idea in mind, Alexia followed Lyana’s gaze.

Lyana frowned slightly. She could vaguely smell a pungent smell. She looked at the drop of liquid nervously.

The next moment, the pungent smell grew stronger and stronger. Lyana hurriedly pulled Alexia behind her and covered her mouth and nose.

Alexia was so scared that her face turned pale. She covered her mouth and nose and looked at Lyana in confusion.

“Sister Lyana, what’s going on?”

When the others heard Alexia’s voice, they also leaned towards her.

Matriarch Royer sat quite far away. At this time, she could also smell a strange smell in the air. His gaze landed on Lyana’s face, and his gaze was much softer than before. She asked :

“What is that smell?”

She remembered very clearly that when she had received the bag of blessing, she had smelled a perfume, but why had it become a pungent odor now?

Lyana let go of Alexia’s hand and approached. The pungent smell was getting stronger and stronger. She covered her mouth and nose and saw with her own eyes that the drop of liquid had corroded the urn.

“Must be dilute sulfuric acid. Lyana says to the others:

“Everyone, walk out the door. It is very corrosive and oxidizing. Its smell is very pungent. If you inhale too much sulfuric acid vapor, your airways may be affected. If the concentration of sulfuric acid is higher, it can cause other respiratory problems.

– What?

Alexia was amazed. She had wanted to wipe away the drop of liquid just now. If his hand touched it, it might corrode his hand like the urn.

She trembled with fear.

Matriarch Royer raised her hand and patted William’s arm.

– Quick, go and remove the blessing bag.

As soon as Matriarch Royer finished speaking, another drop of sulfuric acid fell on the urn.

The hole in the ballot box has widened.

Alexia was so anxious she was about to cry.

“Sister Lyana, my sister’s urn is corroded. Are his ashes…

Matriarch Royer’s expression has changed dramatically. She got up and walked to the ballot box.

Lyana didn’t have time to explain to them. Holding her breath, she realized that the bottom half of the blessing bag was already wet. Instead of touching him, she untied the rope holding him and rode off with it. Everyone immediately gave way to her and she threw the blessing bag on the floor.

The air circulated better outside, and the pungent smell was much less acrid than before.

When she returned to her room and saw the changes on the surface of the urn, she understood.

Muriel frowned slightly, and there was a hint of anger in her beautiful eyes. She said coldly:

“Who exactly added sulfuric acid to the blessing bag?” Do you want my sister to have trouble underground?

Lyana’s expression turned serious. She didn’t know who was vicious enough to attack an urn.

How much did this person hate the eldest daughter of the Royer family?

Suddenly, a gleam crossed Lyana’s eyes.

Could it be these people?

But that’s not it either.

If these people really thought the eldest daughter of the Royer family was already dead, why did they damage the urn anyway?

If these people knew that the eldest daughter of the Royer family was still alive, they would probably have notified her directly.

“Oh my god, who is so ruthless in attacking my eldest granddaughter.

Matriarch Royer looked sad. Her gaze fell on William’s face and she said:

“We need to investigate this case thoroughly. We can’t let Lyana suffer again.

Lyana.

When Lyana heard Matriarch Royer’s words, she paused. She didn’t expect Grandma to believe her!

Alexia nodded and said:

“Brother, I’ll help you investigate. We cannot let the person who abused the Sister go unpunished.

Lyana breathed a sigh of relief. Since Grandma and Alexia trusted her so much, she had to find the culprit.

With that thought in mind, Lyana picked up the scissors on the table beside her and walked out, carefully slicing the pouch.

Originally, there were a lot of dried flowers in the blessing bag. Now, these dried flowers had already been corroded by sulfuric acid and gave off a strong stench.

There was also a huge hole in the blessing bag.
