A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

Could he have a split personality?

Otherwise, why would Vincent have no memory of what just happened?

Lyana opened her mouth to explain, but Vincent said angrily,

– Get out!

Lyana’s expression darkened. She got up and threw a towel at Vincent. Without another word, she left with the first aid kit, without forgetting to slam the door.

Vincent remained alone in the bathroom.

Mist hung in the air. The smell of shower gel was overpowering. He really hated that smell.

His memory had stopped at the threshold of the door. He had no memory of Lyana’s arrival, or how he had ended up in the bathroom.

Had he really been unconscious for so long in front of Lyana?

He got up. Seeing that he was still in his underpants, the anxiety in his heart eased a little. After having washed briefly, he went out in a bathrobe.

Vincent had just left when he saw Thomas standing, shaking, at the bathroom door.

– Where is she ?

When Thomas heard Vincent’s voice, he was slightly dazed. His scalp went numb. Why did he feel like the second young master didn’t remember what had just happened?

Seeing that Thomas stared at him without answering, Vincent frowned.

Thomas immediately lowered his head and said submissively:

– Madam went to the entrance hall.

Vincent’s expression grew even colder. His gaze seemed to scrutinize Thomas.

– When did I get to the bathroom?

Thomas opened his mouth slightly. After thinking for a long time, he still didn’t know what to say. Finally, he lowered his head and silently apologized to Lyana.

– Madam knows very well.

Vincent averted his cold gaze from Thomas and headed for the entrance hall.

Lyana took the crystal cup out of the medicine box and put it on the table. Since he had woken up, it was time to return the cup to its rightful owner.

Vincent approached Lyana and looked at the cup in her hand, his phoenix eyes filled with confusion.

Why had he lost all his memories? When did he give the cup to Lyana?

Lyana hears footsteps and turns around. Seeing Vincent, she handed him the crystal cup.

– I return it to its rightful owner.

He looked at the crystal cup in Lyana’s hand. His hand was clear and thin, and there was something faintly seductive about it. Thinking about the bathroom scene earlier, he pushed that awkward thought to the back of his mind. His gaze fell on Lyana’s face and he said calmly:

– This was meant for you in the first place.

When she heard Vincent’s words, she looked at him in surprise. Confusion was on his face.

Wasn’t he himself now?

Why did he still intend to give her the cup?

Did he know what giving a cup meant?

Lyana felt there were some things she needed to clear up.

– YOU…

Vincent interrupted him with indifference. – You drink red wine every night. A good red wine requires a good glass. Ordinary wine glasses won’t do your red wine justice.

Lyana looked up at Vincent. She hadn’t expected him to notice that detail. She heaved a sigh of relief. Luckily, he didn’t want to say anything more.

It’s logic. Vincent was such a cold person. No matter how you looked at him, he didn’t seem like a romantic person.

Also, the way he looked at her when he woke up in the bathroom gave her the certainty that he was still suspicious of her.

Lyana looked down at the crystal glass in her hand. Using this glass to hold red wine was really a waste of crystal glass.

Seeing that she seemed to be thinking, Vincent thought she was thinking about her illness earlier. He asked :

– What just happened?

She put the crystal glass back on the table and looked up at Vincent, asking seriously:

– You really don’t remember what just happened?

He shook his head.

– Come here. Sit down on the couch.

She motioned for Vincent to sit on the couch with her, then took his pulse.

Vincent’s pulse was still erratic. He alternated between speeding up and slowing down. It was as if he had been poisoned.

Lyana’s eyes darken and her brow furrows more and more.

She knew very well that he had not been poisoned. On the contrary, his condition had worsened.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Lyana’s frown deepened. Vincent had indeed suffered from a split personality just now. Under the torment of his illness, he had transformed into an innocent and naive personality, temporarily forgetting his illness…

If Vincent got sick again in the future and split into a different personality again, it would probably take a lot of his energy. If this continued, he could be completely drained of his energy very soon.

Moa lowered her gaze. Besides, she couldn’t tell Vincent yet about her split personality, because that would only make her condition worse.

She looked up and met Vincent’s cold gaze. She decided to lie.

– It’s like that. Thomas rushed over to me and told me you passed out. When I arrived, you were throwing things all over the place. When you saw me, you gave me the crystal cup. Then, for some reason, you passed out.

Vincent frowned slightly. Why didn’t he have any impression of what she had said?

– There was really too much dirt on you. It was windy outside, and we were afraid you’d catch a cold, so we sent you to the bathroom to take a bath.

She looked at Vincent sincerely and continued:

– I stayed behind to help you with the acupuncture, but you woke up.

Vincent’s gaze inadvertently fell on Lyana’s pale, swan-like neck. He was slightly pink, and traces of soap trailed around his collarbones. His hair was also wet, and the front of his shirt was a bit damp. He could vaguely glimpse her beautiful figure.

Vincent’s mouth went a little dry, and his breathing quickened. He turned his head to the side and asked indifferently:

– I hurt you ?

Lyana shook her head.

– No.

She couldn’t help but remember how obedient and adorable Vincent was when he transformed into Vicki. Aside from the fact that he was crying a lot, there was nothing wrong with him.

However, Vicki was still a child. It was normal for him to cry.

As Lyana thought about this, she couldn’t help but look back at Vincent. His expression was cold and impersonal, and his eyes were unfathomably deep. He gave the shivers.

She silently averted her gaze. Vincent was Vincent. Her personality was very different from Vicki’s.

– Why are you looking at me like that?

He frowned.

Lyana came to her senses. Smiling awkwardly, she hastened to say:

– It’s nothing. I just wanted to ask you if you were hungry.

When he heard the word “hungry”, he remembered that he had originally planned to celebrate Lyana’s birthday today, but the food he had meticulously prepared had been ruined.

Fortunately, the crystal cup he had specially prepared for her was still intact.

He turned to look at Thomas.

– Thomas.

He stood aside, listening to their conversation. After hearing Madam’s simple explanation, her worried heart finally calmed down. Madam was right. No one could know that the Second Young Master had become a child.

He smiled at Vincent and asked him:

– Second young master, what can I do for you?

– Is there anything else to eat?

He shook his head.

– All the food was already on the table.

– Where is the fruit?

– There aren’t any more either.

As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to remember something. His eyes lit up and he quickly said,

– I remember there were instant noodles in the car.

When Thomas finished speaking, he instantly regretted his words.

What had he said?

Today was the twenty-third birthday of the second young Madame!

On this day, she should eat good food, not instant noodles!

Thomas was a little annoyed with himself. As he was about to correct himself, he heard Lyana say:

– Hurry up and get me the instant noodles.

In fact, she was already starving. She didn’t want to wait any longer.

When Vincent heard the words “instant noodles”, he couldn’t help but frown. Disdain was written on his face.

– Is it edible?

When Lyana heard Vincent’s words, she looked at him in disbelief.

– Don’t tell me you’ve never eaten instant noodles before.

– I won’t eat that kind of food, he said expressionlessly.

Lyana shakes her head in disapproval and says:

– Instant noodles are especially delicious. It’s practically a delicacy. Don’t worry, when I’m done cooking, I’m sure you’ll find them particularly fragrant!
