Every woman was looking forward to marrying her beloved man. So was I. I married Patrick Cowell, the man who I had a crush on for twelve years, in the name of my sister. My sister Caroline and I were twins, but she grew up in a rich and noble family while I grew up in an orphanage. She begged me to marry Patrick as her substitute because she didn't want to marry him. I agreed sweetly. Patrick was the only heir of the richest family in this city. Handsome, rich, and powerful. However, I didn't expect that he treated me cruelly in bed as if I was his enemy. Because he knew I was not his bride? Oh no!!!

Substitute Bride,Substitute Love

After dinner, Patrick went upstairs with me in his arms.

He wanted to make love. However, I couldn't concentrate and kept thinking about the press conference tomorrow.

Patrick seemed to have noticed that I was absent-minded. Without forcing me, he held me in his arms and asked me, "What's wrong? Have you been upset recently?" As he said, he gently kissed me, "Don't be afraid. Everything will be solved soon."

At that time, I didn't understand what he was talking about.

Later, I learned that we two weren't talking about the same thing.

Originally, I thought that Patrick would go to work the next morning as he usually did. However, I got up, got changed, and put on light makeup. While sitting in the dining room and enjoying my breakfast, I saw that he was dressed in casual clothes instead.

I looked at him and couldn't help but be stunned, asking, "Aren't you going to work today?"
