Chapter 775 Don't Be Afraid

Name:The Substitute Bride Author:Mi Lu
"Don't assume that no one will recognize you since you have a different face." Leila sneered, "You are Yvonne. No matter how many faces you change, you are still Yvonne. Charles will never fall in love with you."

"Just shut up!" After she came back, it was the first time that Holley had been driven insane like that. She took a deep breath and said, "Leila, don't forget! We are on the same boat. If you really drive me into the corner and choose to betray me, have you ever thought about what is going to happen next?"

Leila didn't respond, pondering on what Holley said.

Holley sneered with coldness and said to Leila on the other side of the phone, "If Charles gets to know I am Yvonne, definitely, he won't spare me. And then? Have you even thought about what is going to happen next? After all this, Charles will live happily with Sheryl. We will both end up suffering and will have to face a lot of disgrace. Is this what you want?"

Hearing Holley's words, Leila scowled and questioned Holley, "What exactly do you want now?"

"If I were in your situation, I wouldn't say anything to Charles, nor sell you out," Holley said calmly.

Leila sneered, "Don't be alarmist here. You're afraid that I will sell you out, aren't you? Yvonne, if you don't want to get trapped with me, you'd better give me a hand. You will need to help me in case Charles doesn't let me off."

"Leila, why are you not understanding it yet?" Holley said with a wry smile, "If you don't sell me out, then at least I can take the revenge for you after you get into the jail. If not, we all are over. Could you really bear watching Sheryl and Charles living a happy life ever after?"

Leila gave no answer to this. Holley sneered, "Take it into consideration. If you really want to sell me out, I have no choice but to accept it."

Holley was actually staking the hatred in Leila's heart for Sheryl.

After hanging up the phone, Leila pondered for a long time but didn't come up with any possible answer.

Honestly, she co

She glanced at Charlie and suddenly flinched. She felt as if Charlie's words pierced through her heart and she got numb the very moment.

"Well, we'll see. I have something to do now, and I will see you when I come back." Leila took a parting shot and left the room in an attempt to hide her emotions.

Charlie came close to Shirley, as amiable as a big brother to ask if she was alright. He checked to assure that there were almost no wounds on Shirley's body. Charlie heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "Don't be afraid! I am with you, and I will not let you get hurt in any case."

Shirley sobbed and then burst into tears. Facing this situation, Charlie suddenly didn't know what to do. He smiled to Shirley and consoled her, "Don't cry. My little Shirley. I am here with you, and I won't let anything happen to my precious sister."

"I... I miss my mom so much." It was her first sentence in so many days, but unfortunately, Sheryl was not there to hear these words of her daughter.

Charlie kept Shirley in his arms to protect her, and said, "Don't worry. We will be out of here soon."

Due to the comfort of Charlie's arm, Shirley calmed down gradually. And, after a little while, she fell asleep in his arms as she felt safe.

It gradually got dark outside. Nearly at dinner time, Leila came in with two bowls in her hands.
