Chapter 1974 I Won't Leave Him

Name:The Substitute Bride Author:Mi Lu
Nancy noticed how anxious Melissa was. She just hoped Melissa wouldn't do anything foolish.

In the hospital

Vicky had just woken up. She figured she must have been sedated since she had gotten quite a sound sleep.

"That damn Charles!" Vicky muttered to herself. When she moved, she felt a stinging pain in her wrist.

She finally remembered that she had slashed her wrist in an attempt to commit suicide. Luckily, she had been able to respond quickly, or she wouldn't have known what to do.

Vicky slowly got up and stretched her arms. She felt much better now. She then headed out of her room.

"Miss, I'm sorry, but you can't go out for now." The nurse stood in her way, stopping her.

"I just want to go to the garden for some sunlight." Vicky looked at the nurse as if she was being bullied.

The nurse had assumed that Vicky was up to something, so she was pleasantly surprised when Vicky said that she only wanted to go out for some sunlight.

"Oh, sure. Let me help you," the nurse offered politely.

However, Vicky didn't want this, so she shook her head and smiled. "Don't worry. I'm fine. I can walk by myself."

"Are you sure?" the nurse insisted, looking worried.

Vicky nodded her head to say she was fine.

The nurse then had no choice but to concede.

When Vicky was finally alone, she took her phone out. She seemed to be lost in her own thoughts for a while before opening her phone and dialing a number.

Meanwhile, at the gate of the hospital, Melissa seemed thoroughly displeased. She hated recalling her stay here in the hospital considering how long it had been.

She took a deep breath and then walked in.

Melissa immediately located Vicky's room but found that she wasn't there. Confused, she asked t

s upon seeing that Vicky was still playing her act. She couldn't say anything out of anger.

She started to fish for something in her bag. Then she took out her checkbook, wrote on a check, and handed it to Vicky. "Look. Tell me if that's enough for you. If not, I can give you more."

Vicky looked at the check and saw that it was worth ten million. She sighed in envy. 'The Lu Family's so wealthy, ' she thought to herself.

But that wasn't enough for Vicky.

She started to panic. She repeatedly shook her head as she stepped backward. She asked, "Why? Why are you doing this to me? Why?"

Vicky was speaking so loudly that she started to attract the attention of doctors and nurses.

Some patients were even starting to walk towards them. Melissa didn't expect this of Vicky. She'd behaved like this herself before, but she couldn't believe Vicky was doing it too.

"Damn it! Why are you shouting? If you think it isn't enough, just tell me. I can give you more," Melissa said angrily.

"Aunt Melissa, I love Charles. He's my husband. I will never leave my husband," Vicky stated firmly as she looked at Melissa in the eye to show her determination.
