A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

Officers had first arrived on the scene because someone had reported that someone had committed the crime of adultery. Therefore, they did not pay too much attention to the injuries of Olga and Andre, and did not realize that a violent altercation must have taken place.

Lyana looked at Vincent with a strange light in her eyes, but that light quickly disappeared. She stood calmly to the side. She wanted to see how Nathan was going to protect Jacob.

A police officer approached Jacob and coldly said

– M. Dubois, since you have already divorced Madame Berger, then Madame Berger did not commit the crime of adultery. However, it is illegal for you to hit Madame Berger and her boyfriend. Please come with us.

Jacob gritted his teeth and glared at Olga. His gaze finally landed on the police officer’s face. He opened his mouth slightly, but he didn’t know how to explain himself. He was furious.

He was clearly the victim. He had been deceived, he was the one to be pitied. It was normal for him to hit Olga and Andre. Why was he wrong now?

Olga, who was standing next to Ines, swayed on the spot, her heart tight. At that moment, she suddenly understood what Vincent wanted to do.

He was going to draw the line between her and Jacob forever.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Jacob was someone who valued his reputation. How could he tolerate his wife having an affair? On top of that, he still had to wear the label of a criminal who committed intentional injury.

Vincent’s flippant words made her heart ache.

Nathan stood there, pretending to be calm, but his mind was already in shambles. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Vincent. He didn’t expect him to have considered all aspects of the matter.

Vincent wanted his father and mother to never be together again.

Did he love Lyana that much? Was he ready to help Lyana get revenge on the Dubois family?

Lyana stood to the side. Looking at Jacob and Olga’s expressions, her lips involuntarily curled up.

It looked like the show had just started.

– No, it’s not my fault.

Suppressing his anger, Jacob spoke every word clearly.

The other police officer took several pictures of the wounds on Andre and Olga’s faces before walking towards Jacob. He said to the police officer next to Jacob:

– The evidence has been taken. After the doctor examines their wounds, we can question them.

Olga’s heart was about to leap out at her throat. His mind races. In that moment, his thoughts were crystal clear.

– Officer, that’s not what happened. The wounds on our faces were inflicted by ourselves. They have nothing to do with Jacob. He didn’t hit anyone. Running to the police officer, Olga spoke impatiently.

When the police heard Olga’s words, they frowned.

– It’s true ? Did you pretend to be that?

She was slightly stunned. She quickly nodded and said,

– Yes, I did it myself.

The officer felt she was insulting his intelligence. Olga’s injuries were very serious. How could she have made herself look like that?

The police officer narrowed his eyes and stared at her face, scrutinizing her. He asked,

– Very well, since you said so, why don’t you tell me how you two hurt each other so badly?

She was slightly stunned. She looked at Jacob and saw him looking at her angrily.

She knew very well that if she couldn’t protect Jacob this time, the chances of her reconciling with him would be nil.

– I… I…

Olga’s mind was in shambles. His gaze fell on Andre’s face, and his eyes blinked. She continued,

– It’s him. It’s Andre. He has weird fetishes. He is into sadomasochism.

When the policeman heard Olga’s words, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes. Finally, he looked at Andre with disdain and asked sternly:

– You must be Andre Breton. Tell me, are you hurt? Do you have that kind of fetish?

Andre did not expect to be labeled as a fetishist. He pursed his lips slightly. If we learned that he was indulging in sadomasochism, his friends would all see him differently. His career as a fitness instructor would be ruined!

When he thought of how Olga had pushed him to take the blame, his expression darkened. He had to make Olga pay with his life!

With that thought in mind, he was about to speak when he suddenly felt Nathan’s cold gaze on him. His gaze dims. It was as if he denied the allegations against him, he would never have a good life again.

At this moment, Andre’s mind was racing. The Dubois family was a big family. If Jacob Dubois really went to prison because of him, the Dubois family would certainly not let him go.

Compared to the fact that his friends make fun of him, he was more afraid that the Dubois family would take revenge on him. Thinking about that, he could only sigh and prepare to accept.

– M. Breton,

said Vincent in a languorous tone,

– your testimony is very important. If you lie, then you will commit the crime of concealing evidence and protecting a criminal. You need to think about it carefully. Would I make a report without proof?

Andre’s mind went blank.

Vincent had actually recorded everything. Andre couldn’t believe it.

Even if he was on Olga’s side now, he would be in even more trouble once Vincent produced the evidence.

What should he do now?

He couldn’t afford to offend the Dubois family, but he couldn’t afford to offend Vincent Sanchez either.

Nathan looked at Vincent with a complicated expression.

Lyana seemed unhappy that Andre refused to answer. It was as if he was pretending to be deaf and mute. Smiling, she reminded him:

– You better think about some things. To be honest, you’re just a victim. If you don’t tell the truth, you and Jacob Dubois will both go to jail. With you by his side, I’m sure Mr. Dubois will no longer feel alone.

When Andre heard Lyana’s words, he saw himself being beaten by Jacob in prison. He couldn’t help but shiver.

In fact, he didn’t want to be labeled as a sadomasochist either, so he chose to tell the truth.

– Officer, Jacob Dubois is the one who beat me! As soon as he entered, he beat Olga and me. At that time, I thought that he and Olga had not yet divorced, so I did not dare to resist. However, now that I know that he and Olga have already divorced, I am puzzled. Since they are divorced, why would Jacob Dubois care that his ex-wife was in a relationship? Oh my god, it hurts so much. I have to go to the hospital to have my injuries examined. Please call an ambulance. I can not move anymore.

Andre well deserved his title of fitness teacher. He had always relied on his sharp tongue to entice customers to buy subscriptions, so right now he was using his strength to the fullest.

When Jacob heard Andre’s words, he stormed back into the room, furious. He wanted to attack Andre, but he was stopped by the police.

He clenched his teeth in anger. He glared fiercely at Olga and swore:

– Look at you. What kind of lover did you find? Who does he think he is?

What infuriated Jacob the most was that he was clearly the victim, and yet he had to bear the blame. He had to be taken to the police station for assault!

He thought even eating shit wasn’t that gross.

Angry, he started coughing violently!

Olga looked at Andre with resentment all over her face. She hadn’t expected this obedient little puppy, who usually obeyed her every command, to be so cheeky.

Nathan narrowed his eyes and looked at Andre dangerously, remaining silent.

Lyana, who was standing to the side, pursed her lips. The smile in his eyes grew brighter. She says considerately,

– Dad, mom has already divorced you. No matter what kind of person her boyfriend is, you shouldn’t have interfered. Even if you won the physical fight, you will be sent to prison. It really isn’t worth it.

The police officer standing to the side nodded in agreement and said, “Mr. Dubois, this young woman is right. Since you’re already divorced, don’t mind other people’s business. Let’s go. Come to the police station with us now.

Jacob felt dizzy.
