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

Even if one could afford it, a ticket to Lucas Garcia’s concert was hard to come by Shelby wanted to see Lily begging for Loid’s help. She assumed Loid wouldn’t be too happy about Lily paying for a ticket to watch another man perform 

Shelby’s eyes sparkled with menace at that thought. She couldn’t wait to witness Loid kicking Lily out of the house 1 

To her surprise, Lily merely glanced at her before agreeing with a smile, “Sure!” 

She didn’t anticipate Lily to readily agree to the daunting task. It took her a while to collect herself. Then, she taunted Lily while feeling secretly jealous of her 

“Wow, you sure are generous after getting hitched to Loid Laurier, aren’t you? You’re even giving out tickets worth thousands of dollars without a second thought?” 

Lily put her hands in her pockets. With a frosty smile, she announced, “I’m not only getting concert tickets for Anya and Emma, I’m getting tickets for everyone in Class 18.” 

Anya grew worried upon hearing that “I don’t want it! Lily, don’t buy the tickets for us.” 

She had heard from Tan about Lily marrying Loid Laurier in Shannon’s place. Knowing that Lily came from humble origins, she didn’t want Lily to owe Loid a favor lest Loid looked down on her.

Emma chimed in, “I don’t want it either.” 

Hearing Lily’s boast, Shelby snorted and said, “I anticipate your generous move. Let’s see if you can get tickets for everyone in your class. 

“Let’s make a bet.” Lily tied her head with a malicious smile on her lips. 

“Yeah. Why not?” Feeling challenged, Shelby blurted out, “What should we bet on? 

Lily stroked her chin with her slender fingers. An evil gleam appeared across her eyes. She suggested, “Let’s go for running! The loser shall run a hundred laps around the running track!” 

Shelby was stunned and speechless. A lap was approximately a quarter of a mile. She would rally die if she had to repeat that a hundred times. 

Lily arched her brow. “Why? Are you scared? 

“Of course not! Let’s do it!” Shelby, always egoistical, refused to lose to Lily, Moreover, she assumed that Loid wouldn’t graciously help Lily, not when the concert tickets added up to tens of thousands of dollars. 

Lily nodded. “It’s on! Then, she left without another word 

After Lily left, Shelby tried to publicize Lily’s promise to purchase concert tickets for everyone in Class 18. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Lily’s classmates were initially thrilled Struck by a thought, one of them stated, “Lily is pretty generous and loyal. She finally raised the profile of our class after we’ve been looked down on by the other classes. 

“It’s just a bet, but still, it feels good. Anyway, she’ll need tens of thousands of dollars for the tickets. Can she afford that?” 

“That’s right. Her family has financial issues. We’ll only put her through a lot of trouble if she gets into debt just to buy tickets for us.” 

“Why don’t we all chip in some money for the tickets? We can’t have the other classes looking down on us.” 

Meanwhile, lansat in the back of the class, resting his chin in his palm. His eyes wavered in a pensive manner. 

Soon, he rose from his seat and approached his classmates. He offered, “Count me in. I’ll chip in five grand.” 

He only bad five grand as his monthly allowance anyway and couldn’t afford anything more than that 

At the same time, Alexis watched the exchange from afar with an evil glint in her eyes. 

Lold gracefully served an old man some coffee in a hotel near Ember Creek High School With a smile, he said, “Mr. Woodley, please!! 

Shaun and Daniel sat by Lald’s side without a word, knowing that Loid was in charge of the situation. 

The principal of Ember Creek High School, Joseph Woodley, nodded and complimented Loid, “I’ve heard about your exceptional coffee brewing techniques. After having a taste, I bave to say it’s true.”
