My Substitute Wife Is a Bigwig (Lily Brooks and Loid Laurier)

Lily started the car. The car darted forward with speed, reminiscent of a launched projectile. The expressions of the three passengers changed immediately, and they all quickly grabbed onto the handles. 

Shaun pressed against the car window, his face pale. “Lily, you need to slow down! You’ll get us killed!” 

Lily glanced at him but ignored him. Loid regained his composure, Glancing at Lily’s cold expression in the mirror, his eyes narrowed. 

He didn’t know who Poppy was on the phone. Apart from her grandenother and Jason, he had never witnessed tily losing control like this before. 

The car sped all the way. Upon reaching Sapphire Flow, a figure leaped off the riverbank before Lily could stop the car. 

Immediately, Anya screamed, “Puppy!” 

Anya stood there in a panic, tears streaming down her face. “Is there anyone? Help, someone help! 

Looking around and finding no one nearby, she didn’t hesitate and jumped into the water as well 

Once Lily parked the car, she saw Anya jumping in. Without hesitation, Lily rushed over and jumped into the river. 

Loid wanted to grab her but it was too late. He followed Lily and jumped in. Shaun and Daniel’s faces turned pale. 

Shaun looked at the rushing river, his expression grave, and asked, “What do we do?” 

“Save them! What else can we do?” Daniel said, about to jump in too. 

Shaun quickly grabbed him. “Are you guys out of your minds? Can’t you see this is a fast–flowing river? This is a suicide mission!” 

“What do you suggest then? Daniel yelled back. 

His eyes had a hint of red, and his chest was heaving. He was scared. 

“Quick, call for help!” Shaun barked. “You stay here for rescue. I’ll go down and check.” 

“But..” Daniel hesitated. 

“But what? Loid jumped in, do you want to follow too? Can you handle the consequences of this? Shaim yelled. “Hurry up and call the ambulance!” 

Daniel no longer hesitated and immediately called for rescue. 

It was dark, and Shaun couldn’t see what was happening in the water from the riverbank. He yelled a few times but got no response. 

Just as he was thinking of a way to reach the shallows, two figures suddenly emerged. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Shaun was startled, but when he saw told, he quickly called out to Daniel on the riverbank, “Daniel, come over here!” 

He and Daniel pulled Loid onto the riverbank Loid had two girls in his arms. 

Shaun looked at them and asked urgently, “Where’s Lily?” 

Loid’s expression changed as he asked, “She’s not here?” 

shaun shuddered, “Don’t tell me she… 

Loid’s face turned pale. Without a second thought, he plunged back into the water. 

Daniel wanted to stop him, but Shaun held him back, “Let him go. You know how he is. Besides, Lily hasn’t surfaced yet, so he won’t just stand by.” 

Shaun sighed and said, “Looks like Loid has truly fallen for her.” 

Daniel sermed about to sprak but stayed quiet in the end. 

Soon, the rescue and medical teams arrived. They first treated the two girls who had been saved by Loid. Meanwhile, Shaun continued to observe the situation from the riverbank
