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

“Anya” 

Poppy looked anxious and tried to stop 

ed to stop her. However, Lily had already taken the phone. She quickly lowered her head again.

Lily looked at the message in Anya’s phone and her expression turned colder. Before attempting suicide, Poppy had posted on the school forum. 

“I hate this world, I hate everyone who’s cold–hearted. I can handle your bullying and your beatings, but I can’t stand you stripping me and taking photos of me. I hate you all. I’m done. I’ll become a vengeful ghost to haunt you all! 

Lily tossed the phone onto the table, her face blank as she asked, “What happened?” 

Anya paused before saying, “Poppy’s always been bullied. They’ve accused her of stealing, poured dirty water on her, and even made her eat expired food. 

“But today was the worst. They stripped her, took photos, and threatened to share them online. I think they’ve probably already done it.” 

Anya couldn’t understand why Lily was always helping her. But now she understood. It was because of Poppy. She had a good relationship with Poppy, but they didn’t dare to be 

close. 

They both got bullied, especially when they were seen together. So, they always kept their distance. 

Lily looked at Shaun and asked, “Can you go upstairs and grab my laptop?” 

“Okay,” Shaun sald and went upstairs, 

Shortly after, Shaun came back with the laptop. Lily turned it on and began typing. Shaun widened his eyes in amazement at her impressive speed. 

“Wow, that’s fat” 

Loid watched Lily closely, a faint smile appearing on his lips. He finally understood why his computer had triggered an alarm that day. Lily was hiding her true abilities 

After two minutes of typing, Lily stopped suddenly, her expression becoming serious. There were indeed photos of Poppy online, but Lily hadn’t deleted them. Instead, she limited access to the website for others. 

Lily shut down the laptop and stared coldly at Poppy. “Who did this? 

Poppy still dared not speak. Just as Anya was about to speak for her, Lily intervened expressionlessly, “Let her speak for herself” 

Poppy hesitated, tears welling up in her eyes as she looked at Lily: “Lily..“” Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

She didn’t want to speak, fearing it would cause trouble for Lily. 

“Stop crying!” Lily snapped, silencing Poppy instantly. 

Loid and Shaun were surprised to see Lily so serious for the first time. Why did Poppy matter so much to Lily? 

“Here’s your chance. Will you speak up now, or should I investigate myself?” 

Lily’s patience was running out. If it were someone else, she would have lost her temper already. Only Poppy could push her patience to such limits. 

“It’s it’s Heather,” Poppy stammered, trembling “She wanted to help Beatrice get back at me. That’s why she did it.” 

Lily frowned and asked, “What’s up with Beatrice?”” 

“She…she thinks Bobby and I are Maxwell’s illegitimate children, so she.” Poppy faltered. “But she hasn’t done anything to us. Please don’t blame her.” 

Poppy approached Lily and took her hand. “Lily, I know I was wrong. I won’t do it again. Let’s just forget about it.” 

Lilly stayed silent and simply looked at Puppy. 

After awhile, Lily turned to Loid. “Arrange some rooms for them.” 

Loid nodded and said, “Alright.” 

“Thank you,” Lily said before leading Poppy and the others upstairs. 

After a few steps, Lily suddenly felt dizzy and fainted. Loid quickly stepped forward and caught Lily as she fainted. 

“Shaun, drive. We need to go to the hospital,” Loid instructed urgently. 

Sham, stunned by Lily’s sudden collapse, didn’t react immediately until Loid called out to him again. 

“Oh, okay!” 

Enid held Lily tightly, looking worried. He noticed her unusually pale face and weak breathing, which seemed serious. Laid’s grip instinctively tightened. He was determined to keep her safe
