Billionaire substitute bride Paternity test
The next morning, someone came to draw blood from Mia for a paternity test. Mia cooperated fully, allowing them to take her blood, and then she patiently waited in the garden of the courtyard.Since she was Noah's biological daughter, she had nothing to fear.In the afternoon, the results of the paternity test came out. Andrew looked at the report, and his initially calm eyes finally showed some emotions. "Mom! Mimi is my daughter. She really is my daughter!"Old Mrs. Lesser looked at him with joy. It had been over thirty years, and she owed him so much.Now that he truly had a daughter, she felt genuinely happy for him."Congratulations, Andrew. At least these past thirty years of emptiness have been filled, although not perfectly. It's good to have a daughter anyway.""Yeah."Andrew nodded vigorously. "Mom, Mimi has been left alone since yesterday. I want to go see her now.""Go ahead."Old Mrs. Lesser waved her hand at him and smiled as she watched the caregiver push Andrew out.Jus
Billionaire substitute bride So ungrateful
As Eva seriously pondered, she realized the key to this matter. Her heart sank slightly, and she pursed her lips. "Dad, if you knew all this, why didn't you say it in front of Andrew just now?"Old Master Lesser waved his hand, "Now someone can fill Andrew's emptiness. It's a good thing for him. Moreover, considering his current situation, it's not suitable for him to have extreme joy or sorrow. As long as he likes it, there's nothing wrong with recognizing a daughter. Our family can afford to raise her."Eva lowered her head. Old Master Lesser and Old Mrs. Lesser knew everything, but they didn't say it for the sake of Andrew. Their son who had gone missing for over thirty years had finally returned. As parents, naturally, they wanted him to live the remaining years in happiness.Even if Mia was scheming, as long as she didn't harm Andrew and could make him happy, they wouldn't drive her away.********Mia sat in the courtyard waiting from morning till afternoon, and the more she wait
Billionaire substitute bride Strange dream
"Dad... Dad..."Maria was in a deep sleep, her eyes tightly closed.She had a strange dream.In the dream, she saw her grandparents, uncles, and aunts.She was brought to a memorial hall, where hundreds of memorial tablets were placed on a table. She knelt on a cushion at the front, listening to the voice next to her, "Kowtow!" She deeply kowtowed to those memorial tablets, and then the voice asked her to kowtow again. She kowtowed three times in a row!"The ritual is complete!"Noah's excited voice sounded, "Maria, I finally brought you home...""Dad... Dad..."Maria looked at him, tears streaming down her cheeks."Dad, am I finally home?""Yes, Maria. You suffered so much before, but from now on, Grandpa, Grandma, and I will make it up to you.""Boo-hoo..."Maria cried sadly, "I don't want any compensation. I just want you to be well..."As soon as she finished speaking, her body suddenly floated up. She anxiously called out, "Dad... Dad..."A person who looked very similar to her s
Billionaire substitute bride For my benefits
Maid Heather couldn't help but chuckle. She placed the milk on the dining table and said, "Mrs. Smith, I didn't cook anything greasy today. It's all light and healthy."Maria looked at the table filled with boiled corn, boiled eggs, milk, cucumbers, and fruits. It was indeed a low-fat meal."Thank you, Maid Heather."She happily walked over and took a bite of a cucumber.Charles sat down across from her, and Maid Heather immediately brought him a sandwich and fried eggs."Mrs. Smith, your meal is different from Young Master Smith’s. Don't worry. I will pay attention to your diet."Maria nodded gratefully. "Thank you, Maid Heather."Maid Heather waved her hand quickly. "Oh, don't thank me. It's my duty.""It's more than just your duty."Maria said seriously while eating the cucumber, "In this world, no one is obliged to be good to another person. Even parents are not obliged to be good to their children. As human beings, we should be grateful and not let others' kindness go to waste."

In the next half month, Maria kept practicing the piano. She wanted to let Noah see her, so she had to make more effort.Finally, three days before the competition, Maria, Charles, and Luna arrived in Beijing.Instead of booking their own hotel, they stayed in the hotel provided by the organizers. Because of Charles' status, Luna and Maria received good treatment as well.Lying on the bed in the room, Maria sighed comfortably. "So comfortable..."Charles glanced at her and went into the bathroom with his phone.A minute later, Maria’s phone vibrated. She felt around the bed and found her phone. When she opened it, she saw a text message from the bank.It clearly stated that Charles transferred 13.14 million to her.Upon seeing the number, Maria pouted.Didn't they agree on 900 million?Why was there only 13.14 million?It was not that she wanted more money and thought 13.14 million was not enough. It was just that they had agreed on 900 million before, and now with such a huge discount
Billionaire substitute bride Hello, Mrs Smith
Suddenly, the doorbell rang.Maria pushed Charles with a smile and gestured towards the direction of the door, mouthing, "Someone's here."Charles clenched his teeth in frustration and said, "Ignore them!"Just as he was about to take the next step, the doorbell rang again."Hahaha..."Maria laughed happily at Charles' annoyed face and said, "Honey, they seem really anxious."Charles' mind was filled with frustration as he reluctantly let go of Maria and stood up. "I'll go open the door."Maria immediately sat up and straightened her clothes and hair.Luna stood outside, wondering why Maria hadn't mentioned going out when suddenly, the door opened before her eyes.Charles' angry face startled her. Had she disturbed them?"Hehe..."Luna awkwardly laughed and said, "Mr. Smith, even though you had mentioned Ria to the organizers earlier, they called and said they wanted Ria to go in person. They were afraid that if she was not so bad, it would ruin their reputation."Charles gave her a co
Billionaire substitute bride Mia Lesser
While Maria was taking the exam, in the adjacent room, a woman pointed at the manager with an arrogant attitude and said in anger, "Why does my dad need to step in such an awful competition? I am enough!""Mimi."Beside her, a man in a wheelchair called her name with a frown. She pouted unhappily and said, "Dad, I know you used to be the youngest pianist in the country and the only one who could step onto the world stage at that time. With your talent, being a judge for them is really a waste!"The manager looked at Mia speechlessly, walked over, and slightly bowed to the man in a wheelchair to show his respect."Mr. Lesser, the participants in this competition are all highly skilled, and it is the highest level of piano competition. We hope that you can come forward and give some useful guidance to the young people in the country."The man in the wheelchair was none other than Maria’s father, Andrew, who had been missing for over two months!Mia had changed her name to Mia Lesser.M
Billionaire substitute bride Feedback
After Maria played the last note, the three judges were mesmerized as if they had been immersed in the beautiful music…Maria looked up at the three judges. Seeing them in a daze, she smiled awkwardly and didn't interrupt them.Charles glanced at the three of them. "My wife has finished playing. Give some feedback!"His tone was proud and domineering, which immediately caught the attention of the judges.The judge in the middle pushed his glasses up his nose and smiled, "There's no need for feedback. She's passed!"The other two judges nodded immediately, "We agree."Charlie frowned at them, "Is this all? You promised to give feedback and to give some advice about my wife's performance. Why didn't you give it?""Well..."The three judges were extremely embarrassed. It wasn't that they didn't want to give feedback, but... Maria’s skills were already on par with, or even surpassed, theirs. How could they provide feedback?"Ahem..."The judge on the left cleared his throat and tried to p

Billionaire substitute bride Until death, we were always confused
After leaving the banquet courtyard, Maria and Charles got into a sightseeing car and headed towards the Lesser family gate.Along the way, Charles remained silent, his thin lips pressed into a straight line, and his face looked terrifyingly solemn.Maria also didn't say anything. She held his hand tightly as if she wanted to give him her strength.Even when they got into their own car, Charles didn't say a word. He just gently rested his head on Maria’s shoulder, like an injured child.**********Back at the villa, Maria fetched a bottle of red wine, opened it, and took out two glasses. She tilted her head at Charles."Let's go and drink in the room."She smiled and raised the wine bottle in her hand. Charles noticed and finally relaxed the corners of his tightly pressed lips.He stood up and laughed softly, "How is one bottle enough? You are never drunk after a thousand cups."Maria looked at him speechlessly, seeing him take out two more bottles of red wine. She felt like things wer
Billionaire substitute bride Goodbye
Eva had been with Eric for more than twenty years, and she had no doubt about his feelings for her. Moreover, Eric always took good care of her and loved her deeply. If there was any rift between them, it was Charles.For the past twenty years, she had always been cautious in protecting their relationship, never inquiring about any news about Charles. That's why they had been living in harmony, until Mia came to Beijing. She had started investigating Charles' affairs under the old lady's orders.And since then, she felt that Eric had become more and more distant from her, a distance that she couldn't close no matter what she did.Now that Charles had come to Beijing, she had to make a choice between Eric and Charles. She didn't want to, but she had to…"Eric…"Her voice trembled as she pleaded, looking at him. "Can't you…?""No!"Those two resolute words instantly crushed the only hope in Eva heart.On one side was her husband, and on the other was her biological son, and she owed C

David and Hamya exchanged glances as they heard this. It was as if they had made a decision. They immediately said in unison, "We want to go too!""Huh?"Charles looked at them with confusion.David patted his stomach and smiled at Charles, "Young Master Smith, I wonder if your company is in need of pianists? What do you think of me?"Hamya chuckled and nodded, "I think I can do it too. Young Master Smith, please consider signing both of us. We don't ask for much, just a chance to perform in top music halls."David was worried that Charles would disagree, so he put on an even more sincere smile. "Ah yeah, haha... We just feel that Patrick is not enough on his own. With Hamya and I joining, after all, we have better qualifications than him. When the three great piano masters embark on anglobal tour together, and with Maria and Linda, it will be twice as successful.""Exactly!"Hamya laughed happily, "Young Master Smith, a single concert takes too long, Patrick won't be able to handle i
Billionaire substitute bride Butterfly Lover
The two of them walked onto the stage and sat down at the piano. Maria raised her head and exchanged a glance with Linda, who placed her hands on the keys.The young pianists were curious about what music Maria and Linda would play. This was the second round of the training camp's open competition, and they usually wouldn't get to hear it.Suddenly, the piano played a melancholic melody, carrying a touch of elegance in the air, instantly striking at people's hearts!"This is..."Some couldn't remain calm instantly. "Butterfly Lovers?!""Is that possible? Butterfly Lovers arranged as a piano piece?""Yes, everyone knows that Butterfly Lovers is best played on the guqin, or the zheng would also work. It's my first time hearing it played on the piano.""Hey, no, this version of Butterfly Lovers has been adapted for piano. It suits the instrument perfectly while still preserving the essence of the original piece. It's absolutely refreshing!"After a few seconds of discussion, an unexpect

Two days later, Maria and Linda arrive at the venue of the exchange conference in their finest attire.They hand over their invitation cards and wait for the security guard to check them.Suddenly, a mocking voice comes from beside them, "Oh oh, who is this? Linda!? Am I mistaken?"The one speaking is Linda manager, and standing next to her is the pianist signed by Linda economic company."Aria, you're not mistaken, isn't that Linda herself?"Hearing their voices, Linda's face darkens. She turns her head and glares at them, "Aria, your eyesight is really not good, you can't even recognize me. You should go to the hospital to have your eyes checked."Aria originally wanted to embarrass Linda, but she didn't expect her to retort so sharply. She immediately gets furious."Linda, the company didn't give you an invitation card. Tell me, where did you steal it from?""Hehe..."Linda raises her chin triumphantly, holding Maria's arm. "Do I need the company to give me one? Just look at who's
Billionaire substitute bride Great!
After arriving in Beijing, the feeling of uneasiness never appeared again, and Maria felt an indescribable relief.Charles had sent someone to take Andrew back to the Lesser family, while Patrick and Linda followed Charles and Maria back to their villa.Originally, Andrew had strongly invited Patrick to come back to the Lesser family with him, but Patrick knew that the Lesser family was big and complicated, so he used the excuse of being with Linda and followed Charles.***********On the third day, when Luna returned from Brussels, she went directly to Maria’s place and looked at Linda, her expression becoming more flattering."Linda, I heard that your contract with your previous agency is about to expire, right?"Maria sat next to Linda, holding a big doll in her hands, feeling very angry."Yes, they told me before that if I could achieve good results in the training camp this time, they would sign me for another ten years and give me all the resources. But just when I announced my

At this moment, Maria had already packed up and left the hotel with Charles, Linda, Andrew, and others.On the way to the airport, Linda still couldn't understand and turned back to Maria, "Ria, as long as the misunderstanding is resolved, we can still stay in the training camp, right?"Of course, Maria knew that if she returned to the training camp now, everyone would treat her like a deity.Just kidding, being able to decide the life and death of their teacher, they would definitely flatter and serve Maria obediently.Maria shook her head, "Actually, I have already achieved my goal. Linda, if you want to go back, you can go back, no need to accompany me.""Hey!"Linda casually waved her hand, "Without you here, why should I go back? Besides, I have hugged your thigh, and you have hugged Master Smith's thigh. Am I still afraid of not being able to reach the pinnacle of the international piano world?"She said it so casually, as if she was joking. But Maria could tell that she still f
Billionaire substitute bride Helpless
Maria, so smart, why couldn't she understand what they meant?She smiled and turned to shout inside the house, "Honey, it turns out they are looking for you." Charles was inside, and he had heard everything at the door clearly. The girls had looked down on him before and said he was weak, but now they all came to beg him with a straight face. It was really funny.He remained silent for a while before saying, "Ria, in our home, I make the major decisions and you make the minor ones. But in my eyes, besides you, nothing else is a major matter. So, you make the decisions."The girls outside, "..."Didn't that mean that Maria would be in charge of everything in the house?They felt a toothache and couldn't believe they were caught off guard by this unexpected situation.Maria shrugged and looked at them again.Originally, they came to apologize to Maria as a pretense, hoping that she would persuade Charles, but now, the initiative was completely in her hands, and they had to lower their
Billionaire substitute bride Forgiveness
Maria was not foolish. Why did her reputation stink so much? Was it only because of the ambiguous relationship between her and Charles at that banquet?Just that one time was not enough to make everyone dislike and envy her.Lucy's face was extremely embarrassed, but at this moment, she had already lost all confidence in front of Maria and could only cry helplessly."Maria, I really know I was wrong. Can you forgive me? Please...""Lucy, your intentions were truly wicked. You even used Rivata as a weapon. Honestly, I admire you for that."Even while saying this, Maria's expression remained calm, her tone as if chatting with a close friend."You, alone, have bewitched the hearts of all the girls in the training camp. You treated others as pawns to sacrifice for your own gain. Wasn't your goal to drive me out of the camp? Congratulations, you achieved your goal. You should be happy, so why are you crying?"When Maria said this, the other girls immediately began pondering.After thinkin
