Substitute Bride and Her Husband Who Disappeared

He curled his lips and suddenly threw a punch fiercely at Young Master Warren's face.

Young Master Warren felt a sweet sensation in his throat as his blood rushed up. Before he could spit out the blood, another punch struck the other side of his face.

Charlie showed no mercy. After a series of punches, Young Master Warren was seriously injured. Face swollen like a pig's head, he was thrown to the ground like a dead dog. He didn't even spare a second glance at Young Master Warren. Instead, he took out a tissue and elegantly wiped his hands.

Nancy's eyelids twitched. She had never known that Charlie could be so violent.

However, as she watched Young Master Warren lying motionless on the ground, she felt annoyed because she hadn't even received the money she had won!

Charlie walked to her side and said coldly, "Get in the car!"

"Oh, fine."

Just after witnessing Charlie deal with those people, Nancy didn't have the courage to provoke the King of Hell again.

After getting into the car, Charlie remained silent. Without his words, Nancy naturally didn't know what to say. The atmosphere in the car was gloomy making Nancy feel uncomfortable.

The car entered the villa,. Charlie grabbed Nancy's hand and rushed into the bathroom, then pushed her in.

"Remove it!"

Nancy looked at her face in the mirror. She thought that Charlie probably didn't like this look. After all, Vivian had always been elegant and noble, while she was dressed like a thug, which was unacceptable in Charlie's eye. "OK."

Nancy picked up the makeup remover and slowly removed her makeup. After washing her face, she turned around and looked at Charlie without any make-up, "I'm done washing."

Charlie gritted his teeth fiercely. Suddenly, he grabbed Nancy's hand, placing it under the faucet and rinsing it with water. He then applied hand soap and continued to wash Nancy's hand repeatedly.

Nancy stared at him blankly because she realized that Charlie was washing the spot where Young Master Warren had grabbed her.

H-He made her wash it. Could it be that he didn't want her to remove her makeup, but to wash away the traces of another man on her? "Charlie..."

Charlie's cold gaze swept across her face. She quickly corrected herself, "D-Darling..."

Charlie glared at her fiercely, continuing to wash her hand.

Nancy bit her lip hard and said aloud, "It's already clean. If you keep washing, my skin will be washed off."

Ignoring her, Charlie continued washing until he was satisfied and believed I was already clean enough. Afterwards, he released Nancy.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Following him out of the bathroom, Nancy didn't want to provoke Charlie since she knew she had upset him. She obediently walked to the sofa, ready to lie down and sleep.

Suddenly, Charlie's voice floated over, "Why did you gamble on car racing?"

Nancy turned around and saw Charlie standing by the bed, his deep eyes staring at her.

She gently licked her lips and explained softly, "After my dad became vegetative, I have to pay all the bills at home by myself. I'm still in school. My younger brother just started college. Although we no longer need to pay for my dad's medical expenses, I have to support my brother and myself with tuition and living expenses, so..."

She needed money!

Charlie furrowed his brows lightly. "So, you rely on gambling?"

Nancy nodded, then shook her head, "It's not just gambling. Gambling is only a part of my income. My brother and I both have good grades and receive scholarships every year. I also take on some other jobs to barely make ends meet. But... ever since you came back... I haven't had time to take on any work recently..."
