A SUBSTITUTE BRIDE

– Thank you, director.

Holding the blood sample form, Lyana walked out of the office. Following the instructions on the form, she left a blood sample at the hospital.

In fact, she didn’t really need to find her biological parents. For so many years, she and the old grandfather who had taken her in had relied on each other to survive. The words “dad” and “mom” were very unfamiliar to him.

Even if she found her parents, they would be strangers to her. For twenty years, she had never been involved in their lives, and they had never been involved in hers.

She had never thought of getting any compensation from them. She was just curious to know why they didn’t want her back then.

…

At the Sanchez family villa.

After Vincent returned to his office, he sat down at his desk and wrote down the code that Lyana had typed into the car.

Fortunately, he had an eidetic memory. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to memorize the entire code.

After he finished writing, he handed the piece of paper to Thomas and said:

– Investigate.

Thomas was slightly stunned. Slowly he looked at Vincent.

– Second young master, what is it?

– If I’m not mistaken, it must be hacker code. Go ahead and find out what this code is for.

After he finished speaking, he remembered how Lyana looked when she typed in the code. She looked calm and collected, as if she had memorized this code a long time ago.

Thomas nodded and left with the piece of paper.

About half an hour later he came in.

– Did you find anything?

Vincent looked from the documents on the table to Thomas’s face.

There was a trace of excitement on his face. He handed the piece of paper to Vincent and said:

– Second young master, I asked some hackers to investigate. This set of codes is designed to isolate high level signals. It is said to be very advanced. This is the first time he has seen such a code. The hacker even said that anyone who can write such code must be an expert hacker.

– Advance ? Vincent whispered.

– Yes, this code is very advanced. It took them over half an hour to crack it.

At this point, Thomas became even more excited.

– Second Young Master, why not find the hacker who wrote this code to help us investigate the truth of what happened five years ago? This way, we can definitely find out who our young master is!

Vincent frowns slightly. After a long time he said:

– Lyana.

Thomas didn’t seem to understand what Vincent meant. He hastened to say,All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

– Young Madame has not yet returned.

– The person who wrote this code is Lyana.

Vincent looked up at Thomas, enunciating every word clearly.

When he heard Vincent’s words, his jaw dropped to the ground.

He was amazed. He opened his mouth, but no words came out.

How many secrets did his young wife have?

If he hadn’t already investigated her, he would never have thought that she had hidden so many secrets.

After calming down, Thomas asked solemnly:

– Second young master, do you want us to ask Second young lady to help us in our investigation?

– It’s not necessary. Go ahead and keep an eye on her. Let me know when she’s back.

– Yes sir.

When he walked out of Vincent’s office, he was still incredibly excited. Vincent’s words remained in his memory.

Indeed, someone as exceptional as the Second Young Lady was worthy of the Young Master.

An hour later, Thomas came back and said to Vincent:

– The second young master has returned.

– Note. You can go first!

He said indifferently, his gaze falling on the contracts on the table.

After reading both contracts and confirming that there were no mistakes, he signed the contracts and got up to head to Lyana’s room.

Ever since Lyana came back from the hospital, she hadn’t been feeling very well. So she took a bath. After she finished, she pulled out the materials she had prepared for the blessing bag she was making for the deceased young girl from the Royer family. It was only after she calmed down that she started to sew.

At this moment, the door opened and Vincent entered.

Lyana looked up and saw Vincent walk in, in casual clothes. He was holding a file.

Vincent’s gaze fell on the blessing bag in Lyana’s hand. His dark eyes lit up a little, but the light quickly disappeared.

Was she making this blessing bag for him?

Lyana didn’t notice Vincent’s gaze. All her attention was focused on the folder in Vincent’s hand. Perplexed, she asked

– M. Sanchez, what can I do for you?

As she spoke, she put the blessing bag aside and stood up.

Vincent approached her and handed her the file. He said softly:

– This is for you.

A trace of confusion flashed in Lyana’s eyes. She took the file and opened it. When she saw the document inside, she jumped.

She looked at Vincent with bright eyes and smiled.

– This is an acceptance letter from An City Music Academy.

Lyana’s joy seemed to infect Vincent as well. He nodded slightly, emitting a low whisper of assent.

When she smiled, her beautiful fox eyes curved into a crescent, giving her an incredibly charming look. In that moment, she had practically forgotten all the unfortunate things that had happened today. Her red lips curled back.

– You are so efficient.

The corner of Vincent’s mouth rose imperceptibly. After a while he calmed down and said

– I have already made the necessary introductions. You don’t have to go to class on time every day. As long as you pass the exams, you can graduate.

Lyana’s slender hand gently stroked the music academy’s acceptance letter. She couldn’t help but smile as she nodded.

– OK.

Vincent sat down easily on the couch, waiting for Lyana’s excitement to die down. Seeing that she had also sat down, he pulled out the piece of paper he had copied the code on. He handed it to Lyana, his eyes fixed on her.

She took it from Vincent. The relaxed and happy expression on his face gradually dissipated. She looked at Vincent in surprise.

– How… how did you get that?

He said honestly:

– I saw him when you hit him in the car.

A trace of surprise shines in Lyana’s eyes. This code was very complicated. In general, an intelligent person would have to repeat it more than ten times before being able to memorize it.

However, Vincent only took a look, but managed to memorize every symbol in the code.

Did he have an eidetic memory?

Seeing Lyana lower her head in silence, Vincent didn’t know what she was thinking. His eyes narrowed slightly and he said:

– You are a hacker.

Vincent’s words were filled with certainty.

When Lyana heard Vincent’s words, she looked up at him, eyes calm.

Previously, she had discovered that he had spent money to investigate her. Later, she had asked someone to give information to Vincent, and had accepted all of Vincent’s money herself.

Did he realize that she had taken his money against his conscience?

Lyana refused to admit it until the last moment. Her lips curled slightly and she said with a smile:

– I only learned a little bit of coding. For example, hacking into computers, stealing documents, and cutting off other people’s communication signals. When I learned about this in the past, it was to learn more about the stocks Grandma left for me.

– It’s true ?

Vincent said coldly.

– All right.

She nodded. Her heart was beating extremely fast, but she didn’t show it on her face. She felt he had no proof. If he had, he would have discovered it a long time ago.

Moreover, only Old A was aware of his situation. He certainly wouldn’t tell anyone about her.

However, she still felt a little uneasy.

Vincent asked curiously:

– So, do you know Mr. K?

– I heard about her.

When Lyana said that, her eyes were filled with admiration. She continued:

– He is one of the biggest hackers in the hacker world. All hackers admire him. I also want to learn how to hack with her, but no one has ever seen her. She hides too well.
