My Substitute Wife is a Bigwig (Loud and Lily)

Chapter 56

Jason's car accident happened during a mission. An opponent crashed into him.

Lold wanted a marriage with the Martinez family so that he could guard the Martinezes for Jason after his death.

Lily was a reasonable person. Since she had confirmed that the incident had nothing to do with Loid, she no longer had to keep his life in her hands. After all, he had taken good care of her during this time. "You're leaving? Lold's band froze, and he instantly deflated

Lily gave him a neutral glance. "Mhm."

Loid asked, "You're my Dancée Where are you going?"

"Does that have anything to do with me? Lily smiled, indifferent. "You have an engagement with the Martinez famby, not the Brooks family."

"Is that so?" Loid leaned in slightly, placing his lips next to her ear. With a smile, he said, "But the person I want to marry is Lily Brooks."

His warm breath brushed against Lily's face. An inexplicable blush appeared on her cheeks

She lowered her eyelids, her long lashes trembling, Loid felt his heart clench, and his heartbeat quickened.

Lily withdrew her gaze and coughed lightly. "I've already decided to leave. I'll leave after detoxifying you." She sounded adamant.

Lold was somewhat impressed by her customary stubbornness,

Rubbing his temples, he suppressed the frustration within him and said casually, "Did your grandmaa agree to you leaving?"

Lily pursed her lips. She did not respond.

"You're not going to treat the two patients contacted for you?" Loid continued to ask, fixing his eyes on her. His smile was growing wider

At that, Lily slapped her forehead. She bad completely forgotten about that.

"Tell them to come over. I'll leave after healing them." Somewhat annoyed, Lily went to the tridge to grab a bottle of beer. She did not sit down after that. Instead, she stood in place as she downed the entire battle.

Loid was speechless. He didn't mean to make her treat them right away. He wanted her to stay

"My mom is fond of you. You're leaving without an explanation?" Restless and upset, Loid went and grabbed a bottle of beer as well

He glanced at the time. It was still early.

He wanted to settle this before she left for school, lest she ran away tight after. Given her personality, that was definitely something she would do.

"Fair enough." Lily touched her chin as she thought it over. She gave Loid a rather serious look. "How about telling her that I'm dead?

Loid spat out the mouthful of beer he had just taken. He looked bewildered.

From a glance at his face, Lily could tell that he did not like that idea, so she started to ponder in earnest again.

"You don't have to move out." Loid thought that if he did not stop her, she would blurt out a more terrifying excuse, such as she had a dead husband or something.

Lily did not reply. She was contemplating whether she should stay.

Since she did not refuse, Loid suspected that she was wavering. He took the chance to persuade her, "Word of our engagement is already publicized. That's unaffected by whether you move out. Staying will set your grandma and my mom at ease."

After a pause, Lold continued, "I'm fairly capable. I can probably help with the things you can't accomplish."

If Shaun had been there, he would have been astonished. He would have scoffed at Loid for claiming to be only fairly capable.

Lily furrowed her brows together. After quite some time, she lifted her head and said nonchalantly, "Alright."

Loid's last sentence had moved her.

After all, she had to head to Bridgeport someday. In certain cases, there was a limit to what she could do alone,
